Funeral Rites Held for Student Aviator
Stephenville, Sept. 6: Funeral services were held here today for VIRGIL PYLANT, 23, student flyer. The body of TRAVIS BOGGS, 26, was taken to Dublin, Texas for burial.

Boggs and Pylant were burned to death one mile north of here last night when the plane in which they were riding nose-dived to the ground and was destroyed by fire. Persons near the scene said the plane seemed to career out of control as Boggs sought to land. It plunged to the earth, its motor running wide open.
