SPIRAL DIP SCARES NE,
SAYS INVENTOR OF FEAT
Saturday Was First Time Brook
ins Attempted Feat Since
tombstone Was Killed
BY WALTER X. BROOKNs

The spiral dip which I executed to-
day is undoubtedly one OF the most
difficult fcats of awaiting. 1t is some
thing which only two aviators, Arch
HoN.cy and myself, are now doing,
and something which requires the ut
most confidence and skin on the part
OF AN operator to perform.
! worked out the stunt myself. For
number of weeks before attempting
il ] had the spiral idea. ] knew what
! wanted to do but did not know how
t. 90 about il. Finally ! went to or
vile Wright, explained my proposition,
or rather my idca TO him and asked
his advice. He heard me through and
then pronounced the idea am ilnpossi-
bUity. still / was not convinced. /
beloved it could pc done, and / kept
puttoring around with it until finally
/ struck upon the solution and made
my first spiral
with all nunlnes-, ! will admit that
il is. to say the least. a bit scary.
Before going into it one must tip the
machine straight downward, dropping
toward the earth to secure momentum
enough to make the spiral. Somehow,
no matter how often one performs this,
YOU never get used to il. The terrible
falling sensation is thcre-there al
ways.
Saturday afternoon was the first time
| had made the dip since Ralph john
stone was killed attempting it at Den
yer. A mighty strange feeling crept
over me when ! first started it-a feel
ing which ! cannot explain. Today
performing the "dip" was easier How
ever / ann stll mighty careful about
il, and If the first spiral does not go
off just ass it should I always come
out Of ii instead of attempting the
second circle 1t is the best plan.

Not until the attache discovered Sans

NEW WAREHOUSE OF
BALDWIN RANCH BURNS
Flames Destroy 800 Tons of
Last Hay Crop; Loss Reaches
$4,000

Fire destroyed the newly erected
warehouse of the Baldwin ranch at
12:4O o'clock Sunday moring. The loss
is estimated at $4,000. Eight hundred
tons of the last crop of hay had just
been placed in the building, which mad
been constructed of galvanized iron TO
guard against the possibility OF just
such an occurrence. The warehouse
was located on the edge of the race
track near the Pacific Electric line.
Although no traces of the origin OF
the fire have been found it is believed
to have been started by someone either
having a grievance against the present
MANAGEMENT of the ranch or an incen-
diary who desired to celebrate the
Christmas holiday in as spectacular a
manner as possible. The blaze attract
ed crowds from every part of the val
lev. flames rising to a great height
and illuminating the country for d
great distance.
The first alarm of fire was not re-
ceived at the ranch house until the
building was a mass of flames and
beyond the possibility of saving. The
intense heat twisted the iron frame
into a shapeless mass, and before
o'clock the building was only a smold-
ering ruin. ,,,.
The hay was placed in the building,
according to one Of the employees OF
the ranch, for the purpose OF supply
ing the horses of a race meet on the
Baldwin track, if such a meeting were
decided upon.
