GOVERNMENT MAN
TO WATCH ROBINSON

Iowa City, May 29.-Uncle Sam will
send representative of the war de-
partment to Iowa City to watch BILLY"
Robinson, the aviator, fly at the Iowa
City Motor Racing association meet
Robinson's company at Grinnell is try
ing to close contract for fifty aero
planes at $4,000 each and, before the
war department spends 100000, it de-
sires to know what speed and altitude
Robinson's machine can reach. The
fight of Robinson to Indiana, where he
was lost in the clouds, enroute, to Chi
cago, proved the endurance of the
Iowa machine, but the United States
desires to see the powers of the aero
plane as to these other features tested
