But airmen sometimes am mistaken
about weather, even though they do
not gel far off. The first flyers to
come down told of treacherous little
puffs concealed behllnd the. bland face
of thai soft, southerly breesi — little
puffs thai drove them sldewlse, up or
down without warning.

The- little puffs gVew less frequent and
the day'n llj Ing was on.
Hoxsey went oul of sight for the
dally altitude prise. Brooklns foi
lowed to :c'<w feet and EJly climbed up
to the 2000 fool level.
While these birdmen were testing
their mettle agalnnt the higher ele

stunts. 1800 feet above tin- stand. A
full grown man from the Judges' box
walked out onto the ti.-ld holding onto
the string of a red toy bolloon. With a
gesture made in the direction of the
man In the air, he let the balloon
loose.
Parmelee saw it find brought his
craft almost to a stop. Then taking
s running start, he shot at the little
red thing as though it were h demon to
be destroyed. His aim was g I, (or
the balloon drifted In between his
planes and out again.
I HOIK WITH BALLOON*
The poor little balloon was much the
worse tor the contact, for the- em-rent
of air shot it up and down rapidly like
ii fishing cork In a stream. The crowd
was pleased to think that a big man
in an air monster could do such thing!
in a harmless toy balloon, and the
first great laugh that lias been emitted
from the stand in four days rippled its
way the length of the crowd.
Ely saw Parmelee's frolic and came
down from the clouds to Join him. Par
melee resented the Interference and
tried to drive the Intruder off. EJly was
Insistent, so the two blrdmen tried to
settle the question by a race. Neck and
neck they raced half-way around the
course, Ely 260 feet high, Parmelee 100
feet. At length Ely gained, Parmelee
came down and the Curtis-i man had
the Meld to himself. But by this time |
the toy balloons had drifted away and
the manblrd was cheated of his fun.

Wiirn Parmelee saw Willard playing

Willard came down. Ely, having
beaten his rival in a race, was not to j
be deprived this time, so he. too. Joined \
In the .sport. The balloons having been '
fought to a literal .standstill, the bird
men descended to take on a supply of
bombs,
OHANCJF, BOMBS Tl/V
Parmelee, Hoxsey ami Ely each filled
their laps with red, juicy hombs pro
vided by a l.os Angeles commission
house. Shooting back and forth over
the (leld at a height of 200 feet they
threw the bombs on the "deck" of the
"battleship" marked out in whitewash
on the dirt field below.
Ely landed three "bombs" In succes
sion on the deck of the .ship, two com
ing dangerously Close to the "vital"
parts. Hoxsey delivered two rasping
charges on the deck of the ship. Par
melee landed a couple of bombs and
the ship was weli riddled when the
bombardment was over.
Iliixscv is an aviator who believes
that aeroplanes' could Inflict serious
damage on warships. "We will bo
equipped with guns and will not hava
to <lre ) or throw our bombs," he said.
"Unquestionably, a fleet of aeroplanes
could stop thd biggest fleet of battle
ships, although the losses would be
considerable."
A stiff breeze began to blow across
the field shortly after :! o'clock and
Increased In intensity up till 4, the
hour set for the running of the first
aviation derby.
The crowd waited patiently for this
event, but a consultation of judges and
airmen brought forth :i decision to
postpone the race until today, owing
to the strong wind. The race between
Parmelee and Ely was arranged in
stead. Parmeleo did not equip his
"Baby" with the racing planes, re
serving that for today, when tho great
er rare will be pulied off.
TWO AVIATORS ItACE
Ely and Parmelee, after jockeying
nt the start by catting circles in op
posite directions over t\\° hangars, rut
to the northwest of the stand, pulled
across the starting line nose and nose.
Ely took tin- upper level and Parmeleo
the lower. For the first turn around
tho pours'' tho racers held well togeth
er. The second round Ely pulled ahead
i -•' continued gaining until the finish.
The race was over the short course of
ii mile and three-quarters for five turns.
lily's 'jest time for one lap was
1:59 4-5; total time, 10:05 2-5. Tarme

<'ame in nt the t .lish and surpassed
Ely's record by covering: the five laps
in 9:17 1-5. Ely used a 40-horse power
engine in his Curtlss machine, Parme
lee a 30 and Radley a 40 to 50.
"The racing of aeroplanes will be
come the real thing in aviation meets,"
paid Glenn H. Curtfss. "I am glad to
see it Inaugurated, and I believe that
the aviation committee in thus begin
ning a new feature fur aviation meets
has hit upon a good idea—something
that will attract the people. A crowd
soon gets tired watching aeroplanes
go around and around without any ob
ject In view other than to keep up in
the air. 1 believe that the many people
who have seen all tho familiar stunts
over and over again by the various
aviators will come out to see a real
contest between evenly matched ma
chines.
CTHTISS FAVORS HACKS
"Of course it wli be necessary to for
mulate certain rules to govern the con
test but that can be very easily worked
nut If two or more machines, up to
the number of say five, provided the
course is wide enough, could be sent
up at the same time, it seems to me
that It would furnish a thrilling exhi
bition. Where machines are of a dif
ferent horse power they ran be equal

BY CHARLTON LAWRENCE EDHOLM
The hand of man, emerging from the mist
of primal ages, was a hairy fist, ,
All blood-bedabbled; for the hand had killed
Before it learned to sow ami reap and build.
So each n«w tool was but a weapon, fit
To add new terrors to the blow of it;
The first rude ax was formed for bloody deed,
Split skulls before it served the builder's need.
And thus through ages runs the tale; by worst
(If uses is the new-found tool accurst,
Vet we believe what prophets' words record,
That into plowshares men shall beat the sword.
For centuries we stood upon the edge
of apace and yearned, while sparrows from the hedge
Took flight and taunted us. "That I had wings!"
•Mid stormy music, thus the Psalmist sings,
'•Then would I fly away and be at rest."
And 10, the wings arc ours, a gift, the best
The genius of our race has forged; a tool
Fit for our eager age. What says the fool,
The war-brute? "This is mine, for brawls and strife,
As hawk-wings are the hawk's—for taking life!"
Well, claim them. War-god! Use them till the race
Will kill for you no more. What narrow space
Holds man today apart from brother man,
A range of rock, a river or a span
Of channel; and our wings shall overleap
These dwarfish landmarks. Then what kins Fhall keep
Hi* folk from merging with humanity
As waters intermingle in the sea?
Sail forth, winged Argonauts of trackless air.
And as upon your homeward course you fare
Bring heav'nly treasure. Neither gold nor steel,,
Nor gross and earthly wealth weight your light keel;
Man's Brotherhood, bring that as Golden Fleece
On sun-blest wings, bright harbingers of peace.

10,000 TO AERIAL MEET
Hoxsey Cheered by Pasadena
Crowds-Maryland Party
Comes in Private Cars
"Pasadena day," the fourth of South
ern California's second annual avia
tion meet, drew 10,000 to Dominguez
field to see more conquests of the sky
attempted.
The weather was pleasant and the
aviators had no trouble in making
successful flights. Toward the latter
part of the afternoon the wind disap
peared almost entirely and the clouds,
which had been threatening all day,
rolled away.
Society of the Crown city turned out
in force. Prominent among the Pasa
dena folk present were the members
of Manager D. M. Linnard's party
from the Maryland hotel. Coming to
the Held in two private palace cars
over the Pacific Electric, the members
of the party occupied boxes directly
behind the judges' stand, from where
they waved and tlieereti for Hoxsey,
who is a. Pasadena with whom near
ly every member of the party is per
sonally acquainted. Other prominent
people from the Crown city were pres
ent, a great many coming In automo
biles. '
Today will be "Long Beach" day, and
the record for mid-week attendance is
likely to bo broken, according to mem
bers of the committee. The Pacific
Electric company reports requests for
more private cars than it can possibly
supply from the beach city, and a
large number of boxes have been re
served for the day by citizens of the
town. In order to accommodate the
crowds expected special train service
will be put In operation at an early
hour this morning on the Pacific Elec
tric and the Southern Pacific will ar
range to carry more passengers on its
beach train.

NEWS OF THE MINES AND OIL FIELDS
CRUDE SOON TO ADVANCE
SAYS EASTERN OIL MAN
Charles A. Post of Cleveland Is
Favorably Impressed by
Visit to Fields
Charles A. Post, a banker of Cleve
land, Is spending a few days at the
Lankershim and lias recently returned
from a nip to the .Midway Holds, .Mr.
Po i was accompanied by John Hetter
mann, a director of the Consolidated
Midway OH company. Mr. I'ost is also
largely Interested m the Consolidated
Midway.
When seen at. the Lankershim yester
day, .Mr. Posl talked entertainingly on
oil and i xpre Bed confidence and enthu
siasm in the future of the business.
From a. careful analysis of the oil pit
uatlon Mr. Post seems to agree with
the. recent published views of other oil
men to the effect that the supply of oil
on hand is decreasing to an extent that
will considerably advance the price of
the product in the near future. Mr.
Posi and Mr. Mi Hermann visited the
Lakevlew well and say that It is now
steadily flowing, but its production
probably does not exceed 8000 or 10,000
barrels a day.
Mr. Post expressed his satisfaction
over his investigation of the properties
of the Consolidated Midway oil com
pany. He visited the several Midway
properties of the company, being par
ticularly impressed with tin: produc
tion of well Xo. 2 on section 32. He
said this well the day he was there
was flowing in exepss of 1200 barrels
and that his impression was that after
the well had llowcd for some little
time and got over the sanding period,
it would do considerably better.
Mr. Post made a study of the big
well on section 30, spending a large
portion of one day watching tho drill
ing operations, looking to the recovery
of the big production. The day Mr.
Post w;ls in the field the drillers had
passed the tools lodged in the well, and
his opinion seemed to bo that it would
now be a matter of only a short time
before tho oil was again reached and
the old production resumed.
Mr. Post was for many years inter
ested in oil in the eastern fields, ami
therefore his opinion, is of more than
passing interest.
ATLANTA RUSHES WORK
The Atlanta Oil company is rushlnjg
work on the derrick and rig of its
"Whale" well, and will soon spud in.
Secretary J. E. Levl is an artist, as
well as an oil operator. On a recent
trip to the property he took a photo
graph of the site that is a remarkable
piece of work. It shown the semi
wnoded summit of Sulphur mountain at
sunset, with the Pacific ocean and the
clouds above it, for a background. The
mountain is the main anltcllne of the
Santa Paula oil field, and is 2."> nO feet
above the sea. All geologists who have
examined it. and its light oil seepages,
agree that it covers an exceptionally
thick strata of oil sands.
