AVIATOR TO MAKE
DEBUT IN FRESNO
Whipple S. Hall Will Show His
Skill as Birdman With
Hamilton Machine
Especial Dispatch to The Ccll]

FRESNO. April 23.-Whipple S Hall,
son of Judge Hall of the district appel
late court, who is to make his debut as
professional aviator in Fresno April
30, has been student of Charles X.
Hamilton for the last four years. For
four months he has been almost con
tinually with Hamilton and during that
time he learned to drive an airship.
When Hall purchased his machine he
made few trial flights near Tacoma
and then brought it to Mendoza where
he has made many successful flights.
This aviator weighs more than 200
pounds and has the distinction of being
the heaviest man who ever rode in an
airShip
After his performance in Fresno he
will leave for San Jose, where he is
scheduled to fly at the rose carnival.
Hall intends to follow aerial navigation
as profession and takes a keen de-
light in the sport
1T beats automobiIing all to death, -
he declared recently, in speaking of his
experienced
Until the aeroplane is automatically
balanced it will never be a conveyance
of common use declared Hall. For
some time l believe it will be used only
for sport by young men who enjoy tax
ing risks"
Hall is enthusiastic about his work
and his machine and shows no hesita-
ton in talking about it. He is particu-
larly gratif1ed because of the success
he has had thus far in the heat fields
near Mendoza and believes lat he has
mastered enough of the art of aerial
navigation to be able to give good
public exhibition. He will make exper-
mental flights daily until April 80.

Fly in Own Machine
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

SANTA ROSA, April 23.=Fred J.
Wiseman, the we'll known automobile
racer, and his mechanician. NJ. Peters,
both of whom narrowly escaped being
killed in San Jose last summer while
making an attempt to lower their own
record around the bay, made several
successful flights in an aeroplane of
their own manufacture near this city
last night.
The machine, bipIane with some
entirely new features, was brought to
the Laughlin ranch. six miles north
of here, six weeks ago and assembled
by the young men themselves. The
special feature of the new machine is
the motor, the cylinders of which are
copper instead of cast. in all other
motors made. The idea was taken
from the chemical fire eXtinguiShers
and has proved to furnish an engine of
less than half the weight without
weakening the resistance power.
According to reports the machine
made three flights and answered all
requirements most satisfactorily. Both
Wiseman and Peters took turns han
ding it in the air and are greatly
elated over the success of their efforts.
The machine is about "a by "a feet
and is believed to be one of the strong
est on the market. 1t will be given
its first public exhibition at the rose
carnival aviation meet week from
Sunday, following the automobile races.

COLLISION LOSES
CONWAY A Divorce
Wife Received S17,250 and Did
Not Contest Real Estate
Mans Suit

L. Jay Conway's admission that he
and his wife Ethel agreed that the
former might secure a divorce without
a contest proved fatal to his suit yes
terday, Judge Graham entering iudg
ment for the plaintiff and denying a
decree. More than year ago Conway,
who is real estate man inherited
$4,000 from his father, and half Of
this he settled upon his wife, she agree
ing at that time not to contest his
divorce suit if nothing more serious
were charged against her than deser-
tons
The fact that She did desert her hus-
band was uncontroverted but Judge
Graham held that collision had been
admitted by Conway, and on that ac~
count condemned him to retain his
wife
1t is apparent that $4,000 has been
expended by Conway without return.
