AEROPLANE FLIGHTS ATTRACT MANY
TO THE ROUNDUP PARK YESTERDAY

Before a crowd of about 700 spec
tators yesterday afternoon at Round
up park, ]. Milton Bryant and Miss
Alys Mickey, two aviators employed
by the Bennett Aero company, made
flights which were highly successful.
Bryant returned on Saturday after
noon by the skyline route from
Athena, where he flew at the Caledo-
nian celebration He had previously
made the flight there from Pendleton
on Friday, carrying at the time bum
die of East Oregonians for the Athe-
ma subscribers Both flights We're
successful, the days being perfect.
Yesterday also the weather man
was kind but he tinctured the warm
atmosphere with little eddyng gusts
of wind that in the flying area made
Il a trifle difficult to handle the big
Bennett machine.
BRYANT was the first to get away.
He made a perfect start and rose in
the air in much less time than has
been seen here before. He headed fol
the hills beyond the park, gaining in
altitude continuously, until he was
well up in the blue, the big machine
looking like a bird as it was outlined
against the sun-clouds. He circlec
around and came back before the
grand stand, dipping a little as HI
passed by.
The effects of the wind in the up
per air were plainly seen as the ma
chine appeared to tilt back and forth
.swayng under the force of the In
visibte currents. But Bryant had per
feet control. After circling aroun
several times, he prepared to land. II
came down as easily as bird, an

in the park. 1t was decided that she
should land on the hill north of the
park. She made an excellent start
and rose easily in the air, showing
perfect control of the machine. From
the grandstand she was watched
closely until finally she pointed the
machine downward and swooped into
the field amid cloud of dust. Bry-
ant, in the meantime had gone to the
field and made ready to fly the ma
chine back to the park. The soft
earth however allowed the biplane to
sink a few inches and when the pro-
pellor was started one of the tips
struck the earth. tearing off severa
inches Of The covering. This caused 9
delay of about half an hour.
