WIND BOTHERED
THE BALTIMORE AVIATORS
Fridays Sport Spoiled by the Sharp,
SnaA ~ Gusts.

Baltimore, Nov 11-A wind such as
aviators abhor-the sort that comes in
short, snappy gusts and then dies
down to nOthing-comp1etely spoiled
the contemplated sport at the aviation
meet here today. Half an hour after
the time set for the official opening a
light rain was falling through brilliant
sunlight, and THE devil is whipping

heard.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Winthrop and a party from Washing
ton witnessed what little flying there
was during the afternoon At 2.45 D.
m, the wind, which has been blowing
25 miles an hour died down to II, and
Hoxsey in the big Wright passenger
carrying biplane made a try for alti-
tude and dura ton.
He found much trouble with the
wind in the unptr air and descended
at five minutes after three o'clock, af-
ter having reached a height of 1850
feet
Just before he landed, Latham. in
his Antoinette, started on a duration
flight. He kept very close to the
ground and his monoplane rocked like
snip in bad sea, but he handled it
IN a way to challenge the admiration
OF all in the audience, whose heads
he skinned closely. He made a brave
fight against the gusts but came to
earth after a tiye-minute flight The
audience waited for further flights. but
the wind conditions grew worse rather
than better and no further attempts
were made.
