TIPS MOUNT WILSON,, CALlFOR-
MIA, WITH 1000 FEET
TO SPARE.
NEW WAY TO TRANSPORT TROOPS
latham Has Narrow Escape While
Trying to Aid Martin, the
California ANA
teur.

Los Angeles, Dec. 30. Arch HoXsey
OF Pasadena, CAL, holder of the worlds
record-11,474 feet-flew over Mount
Wilson, the highest peak of the noun
tain range that rims the valley in
which Los Angeles, Pasadena, and the
towns of the orange belt lie. Under
ideal weather conditions, he scared
lO,OO5 feet into the sky and cleared
the crest of Mount Wilson with 1890
feet to spare.
Lieut.. Vernon Boiler and several
other army officers who are here to
see the flights, found in Hoxsey's trip
over the mountain range food for
thought from the military point of
view.
Lieutenant Boiler, who came here
from Fort Whipple, Ariz., said that
thousand biplanes could transport an
army OF 10000 men across mountains
as high as the Alps in day.
Hoxsey used Wright biplane,
equipped to carry passenger. He
made the journey from the field to
hour and % minutes.
The distance is estimated at 81
miles. On an air line the distance
from the field to the mountain is less
than that, but HoXsey circled over the
field until he had reached his maxi
mum height before he pointed the
nose of his machine toward the range.
He was out Of sight before he topped
the peak.
Seen From Observatory.
News Of his success was flashed to
the aviation field by telephone from
the Carnegie solar observatory on Mt.
Wilson, directly above which the ayi-
ator scared.
Hoxsey was in the air two hours
and 81 minutes. He said he had
cleared the top of Mt. Wilson by al
least 5000 feet. The Paragraph he
carried registered an altitude of TO-.
0)5 feet.
Hoxseys performance was the only
interesting feat but just before the
close of the afternoon events the
crowd got a thrill by an accident
which nearly resulted in the death OF
Hubert latham, the French aviator
who made valiant attempt to save
Glenn Martin, the California novice,
when the latter lost control of his ma
chine and was blown into a fence by
20-mile wind.
After once successfully circling the
course, Martin was blown far to the
south of the field, where he narrowly
escaped disaster several times among
the high wires and trees. He finally
tackled back to the course and. the
crash came as he was trying to make
a landing.
Two or three thousand men and
women were within few feet of him
when he dashed into the wire fence
just in front of the grand stand.
Latham was in front of the judges
box and realizing the danger rushed
out and caught hold of the machine in
an effort to turn it away from the
fence but he miscalculated it's speed
and was dashed to the ground. The
running gear of the machine, which
weighs 900 pounds, missed Latham's
face only by few inches and Martin
and his biplane sped into the fence
with force enough to break the iron
posts upon which the wire was
stretched. Martin was hurled over
the fence but got up unhurt
