DAY
BIRD MAN HOPES
FriSbie Will Make Flight If
BOreaS Will Cut Out
His Franks

The directors Of the Wilmington
Aero Club are hoping for a moderate
day toward evening so that Frisbie, the
bird man, will have a chance to make
the fight in the aeroplane which the
people have waited so patiently for
throughout the days of the aviation
meet Certainly no enterprise in the
history of Wilmington has met with
so many unavoidable reverses as have
the efforts OF the gentlemen of the
Aero club in their desire to give their
townsmen a chance to witness the
modern accomplishment of man, the
mastery Of the air"
The Horse Show Association officers
have arranged a special matinee for to-
day with entries of thirty-two of the
best known horses of this section.
Special cups and prizes will be award
ed. The directors of the Aero club
have arranged that all tickets sold
and wind checks issued will be good
for admission TO the races and also
for the fight of Frisbie, II the weather
will permit IT,
In addition Thompson and Flexon
will make two flights in the afternoon,
the first, at three o'clock. Efforts will
be made to have the balloon returned
to the park in time for an additional
fight before dark. The races will be-
gin shortly after one o'clock so that
they may finish in time for the other
sports. Frisbie will make flights every
hour if the weather is at all calm
and under favorable conditions the
sports at the Horse Show park today
should eclipse anything in local his
tory.
The directors of the Aero Club are
particularly anxious that the public
be informed that the wind checks will
be good for all the features of today
and further that no charge will be
made for vehicles but only for those
occupying same.
