The great trouble with the young

AVIATOR GETS FRENCH PRIZE
Henry Deutsch Purse Given to Andre
Beaumont for Aviation Exploits
Many Candidates.

The French Academy of Sports. a
body which seeks to be in the athletic
world what the Academic Franchise
is to literature, had the task of
awarding the Henry Deutsch annual
prize of $4,000 offered for the feat
which aided most in the progress of
humanity The academy had di.
versified list of seats from which to
choose.
Aviation provided ten candidates.
Other fields of sport were represents
ed by Bouin, the foot racer winner of
the international cross-country race
in England; the boxer Carpenter, who
beat Young Josephs in England and
Harry Lewis in Paris; the swimmer
Burgess. who got across the channel:
Louis Percy, the worlds champion
shot with regulation army rife, and
Rallier de Baty. for his trip round the
world in a small sailing boat.
The last named was a strong favo-
rite, as his 1S,00O-mi1e trip In a Az
ton ketch. with his brother and four
sailors for company, was an extraor-
binary feat Eventually, however,
the academy awarded the prize TO
Andre Beaumont. otherwise Naval
Lieutenant Conneau, for his aviation
