Major Read One of Big Men in Air Fighting Completing a Trip
 Through Alaska.

Major Norman H. Read, United States Aviation Corps, who was a Juneau visitor while the Admiral Schley was in port the other day, is one of the notable heroes of the war. He has eight officially rec ognized destroyed German airplanei to his record and how many that have not been verified no one knows. He was one of two men who escaped in the battle with Won Reichthoffen's great squadron of fifteen battle planes when five British machines were destroyed.
 Major Read is an American, a na- tive of Boston and graduate of the 1913 Yale class. He joined the British Royal Flying Corps in 1914. and served with it until the United States went into the war. when he was one of ten men who were trans ferred to the United States Aviation Corps to train American flyers
 Owing to previous accident which had injured his back, the Americans would not permit Ma ior Read to fly He Is returning now, however, to get into the American active service or to join the Brit ish again, if he can get pernission from the United Staies Army He says the British let him flv for q year and a half after he had hur' himself
 Major Read has iuat comH'o'ei ! recreation trip throu rh A'2gka. and while making the trip he has been looking up some fishing and other propositions, Investigating those connected with them, and pre- pairing reports for New York friends.
 Won Reichtoffen Was Great Flyer
 Major Read says Won Reichthoffen who attacked seven planes including Major Reads had the greatest az gregation of flyers that was gathered under one command in the earlier lays of the war.

plan. when IL reached that body.
The board and the committee took
many trips to nearby farms to in

too far.
