By Horry Lever
The Air Force, through Gen. Hoyt
S. Vandenberg, chief of staff, today
j came out in full support of the third
i annual National Capital Model Air
I Show.
The show will be held at Andrews
Air Force Base on July 25 under
sponsorship of The Evening Star,
the National Airport Club and the
Veterans of Foreign Wars.
“To fulfill our national responsi
bilities as a leader in maintaining
i world peace, our Nation must lead in
i both civil and military aviation,”
Gen. Vandenberg explained. “The
success of our air power depends
upon knowledge and upon men with
the vision and courage to use it in
shaping the future.’’
With this in mind, he emphasized
that “every one who concerns him
self with aviation strengthens our
air potential, because the aircraft
of tomorrow spring from the dreams
I of today.”
! “By encouraging our people to
; study, experiment, engineer, test
and develop aircraft, this air show
i strengthens aviation in the United
States,” Gen Vandenberg concluded,
in expressing the desire of the Air
Force to indorse the meet.
Meanwhile, entries for the various
flight classifications of the show
are coming in rapidly. Since the
number is limited to 500, show
officials urge that prospective con
testants send in their application
blanks immediately. These, as well
; as associate memberships in the
Model Show Association, can be ob
tained from hobby shops in the
District and vicinity.
Many legislators, aviation leaders
and other prominent persons al
ready have indicated a desire tc
attend the show, which is expected
to attract as many as 50,000 persons.
The trustees of the Air Show As
sociation are considering the pros
pect of having bleacher seats erected
at Andrews Air Force Base to ac
commodate the crowd.
According to other late plans,
contestants may be furnished with
an attractive souvenir of the meet
in the form of an identification
ribbon with their name attached.
New studies reveal that the prob
able cause of aurora boreails, known
as “northern lights,” is streams of
hydrogen ions or particles, swarming
into the earth’s atmosphere from
the outside.

Young Files Answer
To Taxi Driver's Suit
Senator/ Young, Republican, of
North Dakota yesterday accused
John B. Edelcamp, jr„ taxicab
driver, who is suing the Senator,
of having become “violently abusive
and profane” during an argument
over a taxicab fare.
The cab driver, who lives at 1736
G street N.W., is asking $10,000
damages, charging the Senator
struck him.
Senator Young, in his answer,
said he has ridden the route over
which the driver took him "over a
long period of time.” At all times,
the answer says, the charge has
been 50 cents, the legal charge.
On the afternoon of the dispute,
the answe; said, Mr. Edelcamp
was hired in front of the Senate
Office Building and drove to Ninth
street and Constitution avenue
N.W., where Mr. Young’s secretary
alighted. The driver then took the
Senator to his home in the Ward
man Park Hotel, the answer says.
At the hotel. Senator Young
says, he handed Mr. Edelcamp $1
and asked for 25 cents change. The
answer says the driver then said
the fare was 90 cents, became
abusive and Senator Young stepped
out of the taxicab, telling the driver
to keep the $1.
Senator Young says the cab driver
tried to force a quarter into the
Senator’s pocket after Senator
Young had started to take down his
number, and that he pushed the
driver’s hand away.
The answer was filed in behalf
of Senator Young by Attorney Ed
ward Bennett Williams.
