U.S.. MAN SETS new
ALTITUDE RECORD

NEW YORK, Nov. "A new Off
cial worlds altitude record with a
passenger was made October by
Major R. w. Schroeder when he as
cended to the height of 81 500 feet at
Dayton, Ohio, with Lieut.. George w.
Elsey as his passenger.
In making public the record today.
officials OF the American Flying Club
predicted that aerial battles OF the
future will be fought at extremely
high attitudes in machines capable of
rising eight miles above the earth.
The record, which has just been
promulgated by the flying club, was
made in a lie Pere machine, fitted with
400-horsepower Liberty motor
equipped with a "super-charger" for
increasing the motors efficiency lat
high altitude. The machine is said to
be capable OF reaching a height of
81, 900 feet. and Major Schroeder be-
lieves he would have reached that
altitude but for a broken water pipe
which forced him to descend after he
had reached 8, 800 feet. -
A new set OF non-breakable water
pipes has been installed in the ma
chine, and, weather permitting, Major
Schroeder will attempt to better his
record within the next two weeks.
The major is chief test pilot of the
airplane engine division of the air
service.
