the eagle and other natural denizens

aviation meet. More than mile high
he sailed out over the murky waters
OF the Pacific, which looked black un-
der a leaden sky. Then climbing to
still greater heights he pointed his
Prov landward and vanished from the
view of the spectators.
When next he appeared he was div
ing straight through heavy, water
laden cloud, which parted soon after,
letting the sun peep through. and.
taking the slant of its rays, Hoxsey
made a spotlight swoop back to earth
he did not alight, however, but kept
going for two hours in an endurance
flight. When he finally stopped and
the judges opened his sealed baro-
graph the record showed that he had
reached height of 1929 feet In his
second attempt on the altitude record.
At the same time the Judges an
nounced that they had made an error
In calculating Hoxsey's height yester-
day at $3.50 feet. 1t should have been
9.2sS-1.211 feet under the worlds rec
ord. This figure is not final, but must
await verification at the end of the
meet

team, did not join Hoxsey in his try

who forsook his baby Wright in this
event and went aloft in the same type
of biplane which was used by Hoxsey,

Next to the performances of Hoxsey
and Brookins the most interesting
event of the day was another race be-
tween the Curtiss so horsepower racer,
driven by Eugene Ely, and the speedy
baby Wright, with Parmalee at the
levers.
Glenn Curtiss. in the racer. also won
the speed prize OF the day. defeating
