# William Portwood Erwin

Lieutenant William Portwood Erwin (18 October 1895 – 19 August 1927) was an American World War I flying ace credited with eight aerial victories. On 19 August 1927, he disappeared during the Dole Air Race from Oakland, California to Hawaii.

## Early life

William Portwood Erwin was the son of W. A. Erwin of Chicago. The younger Erwin, born elsewhere, was raised primarily in Chicago. Two sources claim he was born in Amarillo, Texas.

## World War I

Erwin was assigned to the 1st Aero Squadron on 19 July 1918. As a Salmson 2A2 pilot, he scored his victories between 15 September and 22 October 1918; half of them were with gunner Arthur Easterbrook.

## Postwar

After the war, Erwin moved to Dallas where he operated a flying school. In Texas, he met his wife, Constance Ohl.

### Dole Air Race

In 1927, Erwin and his wife planned a flight from Texas to Hong Kong. Along the way, they entered the Dole Air Race, which would be the first air race from California to Hawaii. Constance was later disqualified from participating in the air race due to her age, at 20 years old.
Erwin selected Alvin Eichwaldt as navigator for the Dole Race. Erwin and Eichwaldt would fly the Dallas Spirit, a custom aircraft built by the Swallow Airplane Company on credit for the attempt. Erwin and Eichwaldt's air race attempt was aborted shortly after takeoff due to mechanical problems. After returning to the airport to have the problems fixed, Erwin got word that two competitor's planes had gone missing during the attempt. Erwin and Eichwaldt and the Dallas Spirit went to search for the missing planes. Erwin failed to return from a search for two other missing competitors, the Miss Doran and The Golden Eagle, and is presumed drowned 19 August 1927.
# Lysicles (5th century BC)

Lysicles (Ancient Greek: Λυσικλῆς Lysikles; died 428 BC) was an Athenian general and leader of the democratic faction in the city. He lived during the fifth century BC and possibly was a friend of Pericles.
According to Aeschines Socraticus, Lysicles lived with Aspasia after Pericles's death and had a son with her. Aeschines Socraticus is said to have credited Aspasia with all of Lysicles's political success. During the Peloponnesian War Lysicles was one of the "hawks"; he was convinced that the war against Sparta, which could not conceal its envy of Athens' pre-eminence, was inevitable if not to be welcomed. Aristophanes taunts him and calls him a "dealer in sheep".
Lysicles was killed in action in 428 BC. The Athenians sent out twelve ships to levy subsidies from their allies, with Lysicles and four others in command. After cruising to different places and laying them under contribution, Lysicles went up the country across the plain of Meander, in Caria. Being attacked by the Carians, he was slain with many of his soldiers.

# Bobbie of the Ballet

Bobbie of the Ballet is a 1916 American silent drama film directed by Joe De Grasse and starring Lon Chaney, Louise Lovely, Gretchen Lederer and Jay Belasco. It was written by Ida May Park, based on a story by Grant Carpenter.
Actress Louise Emmons later co-starred in several other Chaney films, including The Blackbird, The Unknown and West of Zanzibar. John George later appeared in five other Chaney films, including The Road to Mandalay and The Unknown. A still from this lost film can be seen online.

## Plot

Bobbie Brent is a ballet dancer working as a chorus girl in a Broadway musical company, helping her old widowed mother to raise Bobbie's younger brother and sister in the tenements. Jack Stimson leaves his girlfriend Velma Vrooman to start a relationship with Bobbie, and Velma develops a hatred for her new competition. When Bobbie's mother dies, Bobbie dresses up as an old widow herself and pretends the children are hers, so that she can keep the courts from taking custody of her siblings. When her boyfriend Jack Stimson finds out it's not true, he breaks up with her. Jack's ex-girlfriend Velma sets up an appointment for Bobbie with a theatrical agent named Henry Fox, but secretly knows the man will try to take advantage of Bobbie. Jack comes to Bobbie's rescue as she is being assaulted by Fox, and Jack then realizes he still loves her. The courts try to take Bobbie's siblings away from her and put them in foster care, but Jack marries Bobbie so that she can persuade the courts that she is now able to provide financially for the two children. Lon Chaney plays "Hook" Hoover, a sneak thief who lives in the tenements, and offers to help Bobbie at one point by giving her money he obtained from a crime he committed.

## Reception

"The only good thing about this offering is the fact that in a number of places we have some rather pleasing scenes in which the two little kiddies figure. Lon Chaney, as the reformed criminal, convinced with his work, but the assembling of the film and the scenario gave him all the worst of it." --- Wid's Film Daily
"There is a wholesomeness about the way in which the production has been staged, and there is never a moment when the moral balance is lost sight of...The quaint scenes in which Hook Hoover...appears, will please old and young." ---Moving Picture World
"Just another of those impossible stage stories in which the rich young man backs a theatrical company owing to his infatuation for the star, who is an adventuress, meets the good little chorus girl who goes through all sorts of trials and tribulations and in the end marries the poor girl. Well enough played and produced, but the story is altogether too conventional to hold any interest." ---Variety

# Halcyon (dialogue)

Halcyon (Ancient Greek: Ἀλκυών) is a short dialogue attributed in the manuscripts to both Plato and Lucian, but the work is not by either writer. Favorinus, writing in the early second century, attributes it to a certain Leon, as did Nicias of Nicaea.

## Content

In the dialogue, Socrates relates to Chaerephon the ancient myth of Halcyon, a woman who was transformed by the gods into a bird to be able to search the seas for her husband Ceyx, who was lost at sea. Skeptical of the account, Chaerephon questions the possibility that humans can be transformed into birds. In response, Socrates cautions that there are many amazing things unknown or at least not fully understood by humans, and advocates epistemological humility for mortals in light of the gods' abilities or, more generally, in light of what humans do not know.
For comparison, Socrates refers to a bad storm that recently took place and was immediately followed by a sudden calm. Such a sudden transformation is all at once amazing, real, and beyond the power of humans to effect. He also points out the vast differences in strength and intelligence between adults and children, with the latter often being incapable of comprehending what adults can do. Both analogies, taken together, support the possibility that the gods may indeed have the ability to transform humans into birds, which process is simply not understood by humans, as opposed to being impossible. Socrates concludes by resolving to pass the myth down to his children as it was communicated to him, and especially with the hope that it will inspire his wives Xanthippe and Myrto to remain devoted to him. As is stated at its conclusion, the conversation is conducted in the port of Phaleron, also the narrative setting of Plato's Symposium.

## Inclusion

The text was included in the first-century Platonic canon of Thrasyllus of Mendes but had been expunged prior to the Stephanus pagination and is thus rarely found in modern collections of Plato although it appears in Hackett's Complete Works. It is often still included among the spurious works of Lucian.

# Fritz Spielmann (composer)

Fritz Spielmann (20 November 1906 – 21 March 1997) was an Austrian composer, pianist, singer and cabaret artist. As an émigré in America from 1939 he composed under the name Fred Spielman.

## Early life

Born in Vienna, Spielmann began studying piano and composition the Vienna Academy of Music from 1918, where his teachers included Joseph Marx and Hans Gál. He worked as an accompanist and conductor in Berlin and Breslau, and from 1931 he was one of the founders of the literary cabaret Der Liebe Augustin with Stella Kadmon. He became well known as a cabaret pianist and entertainer, mixing jazz and Viennese song. From 1934 until 1937 he formed a song-writing team with Stephan Weiss (1899-1989). The song 'Schinkenfleckerln!', taken up by Hermann Leopoldi was one of their biggest successes.
Following the Anschluss he emigrated from Vienna to Paris in May 1938 - while most of his family fell victim to the Nazis. The following year he moved to New York and began working with fellow exiles Leopoldi and lyricist Jimmy Berg (1909-1988), changing his given name to Fred.

## America

Written with Kermit Goell, Spielmann's song 'Shepherd Serenade' was recorded by Bing Crosby, selling over a million copies in 1941. His songs assimilated the American tradition rather than carrying forward his Viennese heritage. Moving to Hollywood, Spielmann wrote songs for the likes of the Andrews Sisters, Hoagy Carmichael, Doris Day ('A Purple Cow'), Judy Garland, Danny Kaye, Jane Powell (in the 1948 film Luxury Liner), Elvis Presley (in the 1962 film Girls, Girls, Girls), and Frank Sinatra ('One Finger Melody').
Spielmann had great success from the 1950s into the 1970s with songs for Broadway, films (under contract with MGM) and television. With lyricist Janice Torre he composed the score for the first Dickens musical, The Stingiest Man in Town (Scrooge), broadcast by NBC in 1956, with an animation remake in 1978. Also with Torre he wrote the song 'Paper Roses', a hit for Anita Bryant in 1960 and for Marie Osmond in 1973.
Other songs known from multiple versions include: 'It Only Hurts for a Little While' (Ames Brothers 1956, Margo Smith 1978 and Anne Murray 1993); 'If Love is Good to Me' (Nat King Cole 1953, Jackie Paris 1954, Carmen McRae 1960, Dean Martin 1961, Sarah Vaughan 1961 and Nancy Wilson (1965); and 'You Won't Forget Me' (Helen Merrill 1956, Toni Fisher 1963, Shirley Horn with Miles Davis 1991, Keith Jarrett 1993 and Carly Simon (1997).
In later life Spielmann revived his interest in the classical music tradition with the cantata And the Lord Said, for soprano, choir and orchestra, written when he was 80. He died in New York at the age of 90.

# Cabo Ruivo Seaplane Base

Cabo Ruivo Seaplane Base (Portuguese: Aeroporto Marítimo de Cabo Ruivo) was an international airport for seaplanes located in the city of Lisbon, the capital of Portugal. It takes its name from the Lisbon neighbourhood of Cabo Ruivo. The airport was, especially throughout the Second World War, a major gateway and escape route for intercontinental air travel.

## History

In the 1930s, the Portuguese Government decided to replace the Campo Internacional de Aterragem, at Alverca, with two new airports nearer to Lisbon's city center: today's Lisbon Portela Airport and the Cabo Ruivo Seaplane Base on the Tagus River, which handled transatlantic flights operated with seaplanes. Pan Am established its provisional seaplane base in Cabo Ruivo in 1938, at the southeast edge of today's Parque das Nações. In 1942, the Portuguese Government decided to create a proper air-marine base, initially intended to be located on the same site. Eventually, it was decided to build the airport structures around the Doca dos Olivais., two miles further up the Tagus. Avenida de Berlim, a major road, was built to connect the land and sea airports.
The US intercontinental airline Pan American World Airways, which was a major promoter of the airport's construction, used the airport as a hub for its transatlantic flights until 1945.
The first scheduled commercial passenger flight, from Port Washington, landed on 29 June 1939 on the water airstrip of the Cabo Ruivo Seaplane Base. This Atlantic flight from New York to Lisbon was operated by a Boeing 314 "Dixie Clipper" of Pan American World Airways, with 22 passengers and 11 crew members on board.
During World War II, the transatlantic clippers provided an escape route for refugees from Continental Europe, taking advantage of Portugal's neutral stance in the war.
With the enormous increase in the importance of terrestrial air traffic the era of seaplanes ended and the flight operations in Cabo Ruivo were discontinued in the late 1950s. The dock was redeveloped in the context of Lisbon's 1998 World Expo. Today, the dock is at the center of the Parque das Nações, where the Lisbon Oceanarium is located.

## Accidents and incidents

On 22 February 1943, the Yankee Clipper seaplane of Pan American World Airways was destroyed in a crash while landing on the Tagus River. 24 of the 39 occupants were killed. In 1958, a Martin PBM-5 Mariner crashed on an outbound flight to Madeira, about an hour after taking off from Cabo Ruivo.
