LIEUTENANT LAHM
TELLS HOW He DID 1T

T< He fact that next years international balloon
race will be held in America has aroused
great interest here in this newest form of
sport, and the time may come when balloon racing
will be watched with as much eagerneSs as contests
for the Americas yachting cup have been.
It was because Of the victory of an American
army officer, Lieut. Frank P Lahm, of the Sixth
Cavalry, in the race Of sixteen balloons recently
made from Paris, that the Aero Club of America
was allowed to decide where next years interna-
tional contest shall be held and ST. Louis has been
named, tentatively as the starting point.
The defeat of so many of Europes leading bal
loonists by the young American aroused wide
spread interest across the Atlantic, and already the
best Of the foreign experts are planning to regain
the prize OF supremacy so unexpectedly snatched
from them.
As modest as he is daring Lieut. Lahm takes
no personal credit for his victory but ascrbes his
success largely to luck in getting into favorable air
currents. Having made fourteen previous ascen-
sions with success, however, It would seem that
the skill of the navigator had no little to do with
bringing the balloonng trophy to the United States
