FREAK MACHINES
FLY TO-DAY IN BIG
AVIATION MEET
Helic0pters and a l,OO0-POund
Flower Pot Among Strange
Inventions to Be Seen.

Los ANGELES, Jan. 17.-Paulhan's
attempt to lower Farman's 144-mile
record in a machine that Farman him
self built will not be the only attrac-
ton at Aviation Field today, il the
weather is fine.
There are a dozen or more aspiring
Pacific coast inventors who have been
tuning up their experimental flying
machines for q week and some are
ready to be tried today. These In
clude every variety of fantastic contri-
vance, from Professor j. S. Zerbe's
l,000-pound flower pot stand, which
made one ill-starred appearance on the
field last week, to ~helicopters. which
are supposed to rise by means of venti-
lating fans in the roo and then glide,
slanting back to earth again. There
is not one that will not fly. accord
ing to the inventors. These optimistic
| people, however, freely admit that none
of the machines has ever flown. But
then there are principles back OF them,
excellent principles, they admit.
IF / only had an engine" said an
other, I'D make the Nrights kick
themselves because they did not think
of the idea first"
Paulhan having clinched his hold on
the hearts OF the hero worshipers in
the grand stand, has k steps to
enslave this would-be rival by remedy
| ing this serious lack and providing an
engine with which it is hoped to start
the envy of the Wrights. He has one
or two extra rotaries which lave
proven remarkably proficient in his
own machines. and the hopeful invent
ors in the California tent assert that hc
has offered his motors for use on tllt
most promising of the prospective fly
ers. The question is, How will IT be
determined which is the most pronis-
ing?' Every inventor votes for his owl
machine and ridicules the rest.
Clifford Harmon announced today
that he had concluded negotiations
through Paulhan for a Farman biplane
When it is delivered II New Yorker
will be the possessor of two aeroplanes
He said today that he will use the Far
man for heavy duty-long flights, higf
flights and the like-and lighter Curtis
machine for speed jaunts through thu
air.
The new deal has given Harmon twt
instructors in aviation, Curtiss anc
Paulhan. The Frenchman DOL his new
pupil on a flight for the first time yes
terday, and according to Harmon has
promised to ground him thoroughly il
the dangerous trade of aviator before
he leaves America.
