Narrative:

While turning downwind, aircraft engine failed suddenly. In my judgement could not return to airport. Turned 60 degrees right for closest field. Landed in field and came to rest against a fence. Aircraft damaged to right wing tip and tail wheel assembly. Propeller separated from engine at time of failure. Pilot unhurt. Damage only to aircraft.
