greatest meeting Austin ever had
was held here tonight, especially as
today was T. L. Oddies birthday
and this is his old home, and also

address by sustained applause.

induced tremendous applause.

is: Battle Mountain, Tuesday; Col
conda and Paradise, Wednesday;

the mud halted him. After he had
gotten his multiplane on partly dry
ground he had his second accident.
While speeding down the course in an
easterIy direction one of the chains
leading from the propeller blades to
the wheels suddenly snapped. His ma
chine swooped into the air and then
fell over on it's side like a wounded
bird. The front wheel on the left side
was smashed. and the left propeller
blade was torn from it's place and
hurled forty feet through the air. Pro-
fessor Zerbe was not injured, nor were
the planes of his machine. 1t will be
several days before the machine will
be in condition for flight. Professor
Zerbe had risen about five feet off the
ground when the chain snapped.
One of the near-accidents was the
fall of Charles K. Hamilton, aviator
employed by the Curtiss- Herring
Manufacturing company. Hamilton
had been racing around the course
when suddenly something snapped.
Nobody knows what it was. The pilot
shut off his engine and, instead of the
machine gliding to the ground, it came
down with plunge. The ground gear
was wrecked, but Hamilton escaped all
injury. The biplane will be out of
commission for day at least.
