AVIATION
!
Bï BILL CHANCE.
FOR a brief period next week Washington will become the avia
tion capital of the Nation, with one of the greatest assemblages
of great and near-great in the aeronautics field ever seen in
this seat of Government.
The attraction is the start two weeks from today of the Atlantic
Wing of the Transcontinental Handicap Air Derby, one of the main
events of the National Air Races at Cleveland, August 27 to Septem
ber 5.
To watch the take-off of this annual race ard to take part in
the spectacular "air circus" preceding it. the Washington Air Derby
Association. Inc.. sponfors of the aerie.1 show, plan to have In Wash
ington Amelia Earhart Putnam, transatlantic flyer; Wiley Post and
Harold Gatty of 'round-the-world fiy»ng fame; Frank Hawks, famous
speed flyer, and a host of others well known in aeronautics circles.
The events preceding the start of the derby from Washington
Hoover Airport are intended to eclipse anything in the way of avia
tion pxhihitions ever before Kiven in the Nation's Capital.
First, aviation enthusiast* in this
section of the country will be afforded
fin opportunity of making personal in
spections of εοπν of the· fastest planer
ever built. "The ships cf the ίΟ ο: more
contestants in the Eectrrn wirg cf ihe
derby will be made a:?, it» tee for in
spection. Many of thrr? ere raid by
race promoters to renreont the latest
in aTcnautirpi speed achievements.
Second, speed t?sts preliminary to
th" SI0.000 derby will be made over a
eprrial race course from Hains Point
.to Bellevue. D C.. on Tuesday. Wednes
day and Thursday, August 16, 17
and 13.
Third, the National Aeronautics As
sociation will hold a meeting Thursday
and Friday at the Mayflower Hotel, in
connection with which Post and Gattv
pre being asked to come out of th»
semi-retirement in which they have
gone sir.ca Vhcir epochal flight.
Fourth, pliais are being made for a
mam mot Vl air parad" over Pennsylvania
avenue, in which scorer, of planes will
roar over t'ie hi-toric street Oi'ly GOO
feet rbave the ground. That is. the
pared1 will be put on if authorities
permit the low flying, which they un- |
doubtedly will, as the Air Derby As
sociation numbers among its prominent
members all three of the District
Commissioners.
Finally, both on Saturday and Sun
day, Washington Airport will be the
raecca of "aviationistV'—if there is
such a word—when the big show will
be staged and all the notables will be
on exhibition. To accommodate tte ;
crowds expected, two grandstands with
a total capacity of 7.000 will be built
alongside the air field and space pro
vided to park 10.000 cars, from which
the occupants may watch the circus.
Chester H. Warrington, president of
the derby association, figures the
"derby show and circus" to be the
greatest aeronautics attraction ever
put on in Washington. Some of the
city's most distinguished citizens are
actively sponsoring the affair, or ad
vising with Warrington. Among them
are George Ο Vass. Lloyd Wilson. W.
W Everett. E. C. Graham. George Plitt,
John Poole, Whitney Leary. L P. Mc
Lachlen. A. K. Barta. Col. Cedric
Faur.tleroy, Commissioners Luther H.
Krichcldcrfer. Η. B. Crosby and J. C.
Gotwals. U. S. Α.; Rcb:rt V. Fleming,
Maj. Gen. D. B. Fotilcis. chief of Arm
aeronautics: Rear Admiral William A.
MofTett, chief of Navy aeronautics; !
Georg" Lewis, Mai H. C. Davidson.
Cozndr. Warren Childs. A. C. Case,
George OfTutt. D. L. Moorman. Merle
Thorpe, Charles W Morris and H. A. L.
Bsrkrr. John S. Wynne. Washington
Hoover Airport, and Robert J. Cottrell
of the Board of Trade are assisting
Warrington as officers o" the associa
tion.
So great an attraction does one rail- ι
road believe the Saturday-Sunday show
i··. going to be that it has put into ef- j
iect special excursion rates to Wash- j
ington over that week end. Also, ef- j
icrts are being made to bring to Wash- ,
ington for the two-day affair all i
sportsmen from nearby States who fly !
their own p!anes. Thoje in charge of
?."rangemeat"; are making avai'able fa
cilities for handling 150 visiting plane?,
bcr.ides these of the contestants.
An ampûfyiug r> to b? in
stalled rt the airport to broadcast to j
spectators the names of all airmen ar.d !
airwomen a-ri.ing on the field, end it ,
is the hope of officials to bring the ι
mere prominent to the microphone to
say a few words—as is dene at the Na
tional Air Races.
Among the treats thus far scheduled
for the show are hazardous "flare-land
ings." difficult parachute jumps, stunt
flying galore and a display of aerial 1
pyrotechnics. All in all. the Washing- |
ton Air D?rby Association, Inc.. has
laid out a most ambitious program, and
one worth seeing, if all its plans are
consummated.
In connection with the derby start,
Mrs. Herbert Hoover lias agTeed to give
a reception in honor of woman con- j
testants if she is at the White House
during the week beginning Tuesday.
August 16. The President may be per- j
suaded to greet th; flyers, too. though
nnthinu rirfinltp i* vet known as to his 1
jJidlin.
Extra-special precautions are to be
taken In handling possible crashes dur
ing the circus Thé* Administration
Building at Hoovrr F>M Is to b? con- :
verted into p. first a!d station and th"
"crarh v.agon" from Bc'lirg Field will

thirgs. Arlington County fire appa
ratus also will be on fap.nd. along with
a couple oi companies "cf soldiers from
Fort Myer to keep spectators from get
ting too close to whirrtrg pronellers.
A humorous, though slightly tragic
note, was seen in the unsolicited offer
of an undertaking company to supply
three nmbulanfces and. the Services of
three doctors and three nurses.

Express begins operating tomorrow.
Seven major aiiT'nes. among them
Eastern Air Transport. Transconti
nental & Western Air and American
Airways, are participating In the new
service, and an eighth one soon will be
added to the membership. A govern- ι
Ing committee composed of officials of
the various airlines has been formed,
and standard waybills and tariffs dis
tributed.
General Air Express Is considered as
the beginning of a new phase in air j
transport development, for it allows the
interchange of package shipment* be
tween air Unes for the first time. A 1
uniform waybill and a combined tariff
has been developed which allows
prompt interline movement, and each
of the airlines has appointed Postal
Telegraph Its commercial agent. I
A feature of the service Is that no
warehouse or storage points will be
used. Packages are carried at once to
the airports, and are delivered by
Postal Telegraph as soon as they arc
flown to their destinations. Pick-up
and delivery charges are included in
the tariffs.
