Plane Lands in Infield THISTLEDOWN, Warrensville, Ohio, Aug. 28. Working men in the ThistleDown infield today took off -for cover behind the newly erected odds board as that area suddenly became an impromptu emergency landing field. A Cleveland attorney, with two vacation-bound friends as passengers, was forced to land his light cabin plane when engine trouble developed shortly after his take-off from a nearby airport.
