Making a Turn In the Air.

when the time comes to make a
turn in the air the pilot moves the rod
against which his feet are resting and
right or left. In this way the machine
is flown. When descent is necessary
the air man points his machine earth
ward by fitting downward the elevat-
ing plane. Then as the machine comes
gliding toward the ground he usually
stops his engine and makes what is
known as a 'volplane.' In this case
the machine glides downward with its
own momer .um. Just before he touch
es the earth the pilot draws back his
elevating plane little and brings the
aeroplane upon an even keel so that
its wheels touch quite lightly.
This description may perhaps make
flying appear very easy. SO 1t is. as
a matter of fact, when the weather
conditions are favorable. Many men
learn to pilot an aeroplane after only
two or three short lessons. In some
cases. indeed, il has been found easier
to fly an aeropane than to learn to
drive a motorcar.
But very great deal of skill is re
quired to pilot Il machine when the
wind is gusty. Then the aero swings
and rolls about in the air. sometimes
In a very alarming way. Incessant
watchfulness is necessary to keep it
upon an even keel. and none but ex-
perenced fiers care to ascend unless
the weather conditions are good.
Another contingency which calls
for skill is when the engine sometimes
stops accidentally in the air.
Perhaps when his motor fails him
the pilot is flying swiftly across coun-
try. In such case he has to descend
in 'volplane' and pick out suitable
landing spot as he comes gliding down
to earth. To keep ones head at such
a moment and make a safe descent
means the exercise of great deal of
skill, and this only comes by expert
ence"

Town Politics Quiet At ooIdsboro.

Go1dsboro, N. c., March 27.-While
other cities are warming up over their
municipal elections and placing op-

boro for once in its history, seems
very little concerned over the coming
election to be held early in May. SO
far only one candidate has an
nounced himself, namely, the present
efficient incumbent, Mr.. John R. Hig-

Mayor Higgins will have no opposi-
ton and he has a record as head OF
the city government that can hardly
be attacked, and with the aid of the
present board of aldermen, his admin.
istration has been conducted strictly
upon business principles. In regard
to the board Of aldermen, no authen-

Carolina, 2; Davidson, /.

Charlotte, N. c., March 27.-The
University of North Carolina triumph
ed over Davidson College here Satur-
day afternoon by the narrow margin
Of one run. The contest was re-
splendent with errors, but also re-
plete with interest, the final count be
ing 2 to 1, with the slant toward ine
University lads. Both teams showed
lack of training, but the future VIII
remove this disadvantage and either
team will then be a formidable rival
to any college team. The playing OF
Carolina was somewhat surprising,
while Davidson did not quite come
up to the expectations of its sup
porters.

URGING EX-
GOV. AYCOCK
REPORTED MOVEMENTLOF Ger.
TAIN DEMOCRATS TOEBRING
HIM OUT FOR SENATE
THREE CORNERED Fight

Raleigh, N. c., March 27-Judging
from the talk one hears all about the
city and through the State Offices
there is a steady development in the
reported movement of certain pro
gressive Democrats to bring out a
candidate for the United States Sen
ate TO oppose both Senator Simmons
and his present avowed opposing
candidate, Governor w. w. Kitchin.
The most strenuous political contest
within party lines that has probably
ever been known in the State has
been assured for some time in the
Simmons-Kitchinr race for the Senate
two years hence and now the indica-
tions of a three-cornered fight still
further complicates the situation.
The latest estimate of the situa-
ton is that certain influential Demo
Gratis terming themselves "progres-
sives" are making a determined
search for third candidate who they
believe could walk away with the
nomination for the United States
Senate in three-cornered fight. Ex
Governor Charles b. Aycock is said
to have received hundreds of letters
the past few days from all parts of
the State from democrats urging him
to become a candidate and assuring
him that they believe he could win
and in doing so avert what they he
tieve viii be Simmons con-
test within the party that might real
ly destroy Democracy as a dominant
political factor for the time in this
Sate. Ex-Governor Aycock is an out,
spoken advocate of the reelection of
:. Il. Simmons to succeed himself
in the Senate and not a great while
ago declared in newspaper inter
views that he could in no way be in
duced to become candidate for the
United States Senate, especially if his
personal and political friend, Senator
Simmons, asked to be returned,
which he is doing quite aggfessively
at this time.
1t is said that whether Governor
Aycock decides to get in the race af-
ter all or not the "progressives' re-
sponsible for the pressure being
brought TO bear on him are determin-
ed to get an opponent for Simmons
and Kitchin.
E. J. Justice, of Greensboro, former
Speaker of the House Of Representa-
tives, is being mentioned with spe-
cial frequence as a possible candi-
date. Chief Justice Walter Clark is
also much in the limelight in this re-
| spect and there are numerous sur
| misses as to whether he could be in
| duced to give up the Chief Justicesh1p
and try for the Senatorship. There is
much speculation as to just who is
behind this progressive" movement,
a frequent expression of opinion be-
ing that National Committeeman and
Editor Josephus Daniels is particu-
larly interested in the movement.
