NORTH SIDE NEWS
Civic Club Is Selecting Perma-
nent Headquarters.
Committee. Considering Rooms
for Purpose.
WILL MARK NEW ERA.
In Business and Civic Life of
First Ward.
Interesting Meeting of Club
Friday-Other Items.
WILL MARK NEW ERA.


1t is understood that the committee
from the Civic club which is looking
after the matter of securing permanent
headquarters for the organization have
several rooms in view and will recon-
mend a suite to the club at its meet
ing Friday night. While the commit
tee will not give out just what location
meets with their favor, it is more than
likely that the place will be we'll adapt
ed for the meetings and general head
quarters for the club and the North
side business men. The rent is said to
be very reasonable.
1t is also very probable that the
rooms will be fitted up as a reception
place for the different business men
from out of town and others who may
visit the North side. 1t is the idea IF
several of the club members that maps
showing the railroad facilities offered
here for factories, etc, should be placed
on the walls so that all who come
might see the advantages. In addition
several have suggested that the head
quarters be provided with literature
regarding the North side.
1t is considered that the choosing of
such a place will be significant, not
onlv as a factor in the permanency OF
the club, but also as the marking of a
new era in the civic life of the First
Ward.
1t Is QrODdDl6 LDaL fTGQ NOlidHu,
chairman Of the overall committee of
the Civic club, will have an important
report to make on the matter at the
next meeting of the Civic club. which
is to be held Friday. March IS. He
has been looking up the proposition.
The committee on permanent head
quarters may also report and the
standing committees will likely be
named.

evening no flights were attempted on the
aviation field here, all biplanes being left

leased.
On Sunday, if conditions are right Mr..
Harmon will fly for number of naval

among them, said Mr. Harmon tonight,

cloudy, il could go above the clouds and
drop bombs through riffs on the decks
of ships, while the men on the warship
would have no chance to get a shot. Mr..
Harmon said he thought the aeroplane
would lead to universal arbitration.

PLEASED BY NEW CHOICE
Clifford B. Harmon Explains Ad-
vantages of Belmont Park.
MANY CONvENlENCES THERE
Easier to Reach, Too, Says ANA
teur Flyer, and Cheaper for
Aero Club and Public.

Gage E Tarbeli's withdrawal as general
manager of the international aviation meet
and the reason for holding the fall con-
tests at Belmont Park instead of at Gar
den City were the chief topics of discus
sion Yesterday among those interested in
aeronautics
In regard to Belmont Park as the place
in which to hold the big meet, Clifford B,
Harmon said:
The convenienceS and accommodations
necessary for meet of this kind are al
ready at Belmont Park. Fog this and
other reasons it is a better business propo-
sition for the Aero Club that this place
has been chosen for the events. The
grandstand is in place, a clubhouse is ell
ready built, all conditions are what they
should be, and the railroads and trolley
lines around Belmont Park are accustomed
to handling the large, crowds which will at
tend the nine days celebration The club
ought to save about $4,000 by the change,
considering the improvements that would
have to be made if the meet We're held at
Garden City.
Then there is a saving to the public
under the new arrangement both in rail-
road and trolley fares and in time, 1t is
at Belmont Park so that the race for the
international speed prize can be held there.
If there is not space enough as the park is
now, by removing q little of the back
stretch fence the difficulty could be re-
moved From the aviatOr's point of view
Garden City offers the most advantageous
course, especially as regards ample space
in which 70 fly
oh ~J,o
subscribers committee was one of the few
men higher up in aviation circles who
had anything TO say about the change Of
plan
We were amateurs as promoters of avia-
ton meets when we undertook the con-
tract" said he but we have learned
much in the last few weeks. We did de-
eide to hold the meet at Garden City
some time ago, but since then. by going
over the figures carefully. have come to
the conclusion that it is less expensive to
hold il in Belmont Park in view of the
present equipment of the place for such
an event I haven't any doubt but that
the race for the international speed prize
can be held there if certain improvements
are made. over 100000 has already been
subscribed. so the project is on a sound
financial basis
When asked about Mr. Tarbelrs action,
Mr. Gillespie spoke in high terms of Mr..
Tarbells work and added that he would
have to make his own statement in regard
TO his resignation.
Mr. Tarbell would say nothing. Some of
his friends however. said that he with
drew because of the attitude of the Aero
Club of America.
1T has accomplished practically nothing
in preparation for the big meet now only
two months off" said one of those friends.
