ance of yesterday when thousands saw

as he can ask for"
The flight Sunday was one of the
most spectacular ever seen here. The
aviator rose easily from the Speedway

straight for the business district and

heard by hundreds of Sunday afternoon

For more than an hour he circled
about, varying his height and then re-
turned to the Speedway where he
made a perfect landing in nearby
