HAROLD A. KULLBERG AND STUDENT FLIER KILLED IN NOSE DIVE
CLEVELAND, Aug. 6.—
Harold A. Kullberg, 28, one of the best known airplane pilots in the country, and who during the World War, as a lieutenant in the British Royal Flying Corps, bagged fourteen German planes, and Henry Dunker, 34, of Hudson, Ohio, were killed Tuesday night when a commercial airplane in which they were flying, went into a nose dive and crashed 2000 feet near Hudson, Ohio.
Kullberg was president of the Akron Aeronautical Association.
Mr. Dunker was a pupil in Mr. Kullberg's plane, so built that men in both seats could control it. Kullberg lost control of the machine and Dunker was unable to right it. Both men were buried in the wreckage.
Kullberg was born in Somerville, Mass., and attended Wentworth Institute, Boston. He was trained in flying in Canada, Texas, France and England, and joined the royal flying corps in August 1917. He was awarded the distinguished flying cross and the royal flying cross.
