Nine BALLOONS N.
START IN A RACE
INTERNATIONAL AERIAL corr
TEsr sEostss At ST. Louls
THE CONDITIONS ARE IDEAL,
Nearly 100000 People Witnessed the
Start Of the Race--German Bal
loon Went Up First, Followed
at Intervals by the Others.

st. Louis, Oct. 22.--Drifting along
In a direction just west of north. when
lost to view IN the haze of falling
night and with fresbening south
east breeze behind them, nine big bal.
looms are competing for the honors
attached to the winning of the second
International aeronautic cup race.
Conditions seem ideal for record
breaking flight.
sitter wind would have been
more welcome to the occupants of the
wicker cars, but the five-mle breeze
of the lower air stratum gave promise
of splendid racing currents in the
higher attitudes. The Germans made
for the upper courses right from the
start. The French and English aero
nauts selected middle depth, while
the Americans raced away at an alti-
tude which seemed to take them just
clear OF trees and houses.
The st. Louis, one of the largest
balloons In the race, came so close to
the grand stand that it was seized by
soldiers and swept back to safer
starting point, whence 1t was sent
away two minutes after the official
word to go was given.
In the race there are three balloons
representing America. three repre-
senting Germany, two for France and
one for England. The basket of each
balloon contains pilot and his aide.
With q prospect that the breeze
would hold towards the northwest,
many predictions were made last
night that the final landing place of
the winning balloon would be In Min
nesota or North Dakota. Others
claimed that the upper currents would
send the balloons further to the east,
near Lake Huron.
The start of the race was spectacu-
lar and was witnessed by soem 100,-
900 persons gathered in Forest park.
In addition all St. Louis gazed sky
ward during the late afternoon, but a
heavy pail of smoke obscured the
view from any great distance. Six
balloons were visible at one time, the
American contestants being the first
to disappear in the haze.
The German balloon -Pommern. a
bright chrome yellow globe, contain
ing 77,OOO cubic feet Of gas. carrying
Pilot Oscar Erbsoleh and A. Rotch,
was the first away. The start was
made just 35 seconds after the sched-
uled hour OF o'clock Monday. The
other contestants followed at inter
walls OF FIVE minutes. AS each was
sent away the crowd broke into
cheers, and until they were well out
of view the occupants of the baskets
kept bowling and waving their hats in
acknowledgement Of the demonstra.
tion.
The American team came in for the
greatest share of applause and when
the st. Louis, entered by the Aero
Club of st. Louis, took fight the
shouts and cheers were louder than
all that had gone before. A military
band stationed IN the grand stand
played the national anthem of nations
represented as the various foreign bal
looms ascended.
