4 Club of Enthusiasts.
Indeed, enthusiasm is the note Of
this club and its members. That Is
the quality which has given the club
birth, and when the president talks
about It, from Genesis to Revelation
or fulflment, 1t is enthusiasm which
lights up his talk and shows how fully
he believes In the new American Fly
ing Club and it's sure, glorious future.
1.-THE idea Of this club was born in
Europe over a year ago" said the
president, who is Lawrence L. briggs,
a writer on aeronauticS, and an au-
thority, it may be added. Indeed. 1t
was talked of two years ago by myself
and a group of American fliers in the
clubhouse OF the Royal Flying Corps
in London. But there were difficulties
in the way. and one which seemed in
supe-able was money. Where were the
sinews of support. financial support,
TO come from? The Royal Flying
Corps Club in London is financed by a
group OF very wealthy men, including

time up. something happened that
brought its necessity, its vital neces-
sity of the moment to our conscious
ness. This was the arrival here on a
transport with other troops OF a bunch
Of 10 pilots. On disembarhing sew
enty of them went down to Mineola,
where accommodations were arranged
for them, but the remaining 100
started to find sleeping quarters in the
city. In bands of three or four the
pilots made the round OF the hotels,
but they were unable to get in any
where. These boys spent their first
night in New York walking the streets.
When we heard this We knew that
something had to be done and done
quickly The time for planning and
discussion OF obstacles was past, and

lease was signed for these two houses

fiier La Guardia stated that up to
the time Of the signing OF the arni-

been built and delivered, and IL the
war had continued this number would
have been tremendously and quickly
increased. AS 1t was, the pilots USED
