Willard Fails to Break Altitude
Record at the Carburetor
Freezes at $500 Feet
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call


FRESNO, Dec 17.-Before a crowd of
more than 5000 persons Charles f.
Willard made an attempt today to break
the Pacific coast altitude record of a
little over 4.200 feet made by Louis
Paulhan in Los Angeles last January
The attempt failed because the carbu-
rotor on W1llards machine froze while
he was at a height of $500 feet, and
he was forced to come down
The bomb throwing contest between
Glenn Curtiss and J. c. Mars was an
other feature of the second day of the
aviation meet in this city. Driving their
machines at full speed the aVlators
sought to throw bomb into 80 foot
circle. Both We're successful, but Mars
was the more accurate of the two, his
bombs landing within a few feet of the
center of the circle.
The contest was watched with nucn
interest by Lieutenant McCloskey of the
United States marine corps.
1t is said that Lieutenant Paul Beck
of the signal corps is working on an
instrument to be used by aviators
calculator to inform them when they
should drop bomb from their
machines at a given point.
Glenn Curtiss was moro prominent
today than he has been since the meet
started. and more than once the spec
tators were thrilled by his daring ma
neuvers in his powerful 1911 machine.
spiral glide by Mars from height
of $500 feet was another big feature of
the program.
Owing to the adverse weather con-
ditions, Curtss made no attempt to
break any speed records, but he will
endeavor tomorrow to set a new mark
for 10 miles which he expects to make
in less than 10 minutes Willard will
also make another attempt to break
the Pacific coast altitude record.
