FERRIS BACK FROM
FOUR WEEKS TRIP
Advertising Accruing to Los Angeles
for Being Pioneer in Airship
Meets IneaIcuIable,
He Says

Dick Ferris, aviation promoter ex-
traordinary, whose work in advertising
Los Angeles all over the world is too
well known to call for comment, ar
rived in Los Angeles last night after a
four wees trip through Louisiana and
Texas. Mr., Ferris acted as manager
for Louis Paulhan in staging the won-
derful Frenchman's appearance at va
rious aviation meets and was unusually
successful in his enterprise
"Just before left New Orleans" said
Ferris last night, 81 received a wire
from Edward Cleary, Paulhan's man
ager, that the suits brought by the
Wright brothers for infringements on
their patents had been decided against
Paulhan. AS record of this adverse
action by the courts had not been filed,
I was able to close contracts for Paul
hans appearance in Houston, Dallas
and Ell Paso.
"Cleary informed me he would carry
the case to the higher court on appeal,
and it looks very much as if the lower
tribunals verdict would be reversed.
In the meantime, though, Cleary will
put up whatever bond is demanded by
the courts, and Paulhan will go on
with the exhibitions I have arranged
for him. Should the lower court be
sustained, then whatever damages the
out of the bond"
According to his present plans, Ferris
will go ahead and book Paulhan in the
principal cities of the country. The
promoters hopes for favorable opin-
ion from the higher courts in the
Wright case are based on the fact that
since 1909 ailerones-the part of the
craft which the Wrights claim to have
invented-haVe been in use.
Los Angeles, according to Mr.. Ferris,
is very much in the limelight as a
result of the aviation meet held here.
1.-THE entire country has gone aviation
mad" he said. "but they all hand it
to us for being the pioneers. 1t is i'm
possible to estimate the value of the
advertising resultant on the Dominguez
field events"
After four weeks spent at his home
in Los Angeles, Ferris probably will
go to Minneapolis to attend to some
private affairs. He will then tour the
country as director of Paulhan's eXhi-
bitions, coming back as soon as pos
sible to what he terms "the only city

HOLLYWOOD IS
BANQUET HOST
BOARD OF TRADE SPREADS
FINE DINNER FOR GUESTS
Los ANGELES Chief Executive and
Former President of Hollywood
Trustees Vie with Other Well
Known Men in Compliment

The Hollywood board of trade ten
dered a banquet to the officials of the
citv of Los Angeles last evening at
Levy's cafe for the purpose of cele-
brating Hollywood's annexation TO
Greater Los Angeles. About 200 of the
prominent citizens of the two COM
munities sat down around the banquet
table and for more than three hours
discussed the future of the city and OF
Hollywood.
The guests of the evening were well
coined to the banquet by Judge A. b..
Merrill, president of the board of trade.
He spoke of the conditions now exist
ing in the foothill city and asked, as
Hollywood's only request from Los
Angeles, that morally none of the con-
ditions should be changed there. He
introduced DR.. e. P. Ryland, who acted
as POSTMASTER of the evening.
DR.. Ryland first introduced George
Alexander, mayor of Los Angeles. The
mayor congratulated Hollywood and
also the city on the annexation and
spoke optimistically of the future of
both.
The second speaker was George H.
Dunlop, former president of the board
of trustees of Hollywood. He spoke Of
the Hollywood of the past and present
and congratulated Mayor Alexander on
municipality including the foothill city.
Following Mr.. Dunlop came Motley
H. Flint, postmaster of Los Angeles,
who expressed the sentiment that
Hollywood by it's progressiveness and
spirit demonstrated in the recent an
neXation campaign deserved the honor
and the good which must follow being
part of Greater Los Angeles.
w. NJ Humphreys of the board Of
public works; Fl. w Hanson, former
president of the Hollywood library
board; Isidore Dockweiler, president
of the Los Angeles library board; Willis
II. Booth, retiring president of the
chamber Of commerce, and Leslie
followed Mr.. Flint with short addresses.
Mr. Hewitt congratulated the city on
one thing in connection with the an
neXation of Hollywood which hitherto
had been unmentioned. This was the
fact that the latter municipality had,
before it's admission to the city, brought
suit against a railroad to test whether
a street railway had the right to carry
freight on the streets of the city. Mr..
Hewitt expressed himself as being
gratified that this matter was now in
court, as it would settle once for all
the long disputed right of the railroads
to do this. He said that his depart
ment would take up the case at once
and press it as rapidly as possible in
order that some definite decision could
be reached.
Following Mr.. Hewitt, Judge John D.
Works, DIR. w. II. Snyder, president of
the Hollywood Union high school, and
Joseph Scott made a few remarks on
the city affairs coming directly under
their supervision.
