Sc COLLEGE AV|ATORS
IN FIELD DAY CONTESTS

MINEOLA. N. T., May 6.-Fifty-six
aviators, representing twelve eastern
colleges. will participate tomorrow in
the first annual field day. to be held
at Mitchell Field here. under the joint
auspices Of the Intercollegiate Flying
Association. American Flying Club
and the United States Army air serv-
ice. All the contestants were In the
air service during the war and are
now In the Reserve Officers Corps. :
The contests. which will begin at
pm. include twenty -minute altitude
tests. g 1oe-mile race. four laps of
twenty-five miles each; trials at
tests. alert tests and exhibition
flights. Regular Army planes Of
standard type will be used by all en-
trants.
This will be the first event Of the
kind staged in this country. The con-
test was made possible through re-
cent order Of the director of the air
service permitting reserve pilots to
fly Army machines at Army fields.
The contests will be decided on q
point basis.
competition is to determine to what
extent the reserve aviator loses his
ability to fly and maneuver - plano
through loss of constant flying prac-
uce. The majority Of the pilots en-
tered have not flown from six months
to q year. and Army officers hope that
the tests will permit them to deter
mine whether the men are still quail
fed for plotting Army planes in an
emergency.
Three "aces are entered in the COM
petition-Summer Sewell Yale) Of
Bath. Me; Lansing c. Holden prince
tom of New York. and z. r. Miller
(Princeton) Of Carthage, Ill.

ARMOUR'S Statement
ON BOSTON CHARGES
Brought Lambs From New Zealand
and Sold Them
Low,

CHICAGO, May e.-Armour & Co. has
issued the following statement here con-
corning the proflteering charges made
against 1t in Boston:
THE facts as reported relative to our
Indictment in Boston are not correct.
Instead of being indicted, we should be
commended. There is a crying need for
more food. and the lamb supply is very
short and the price exceedingly high.
Last winter we foresaw this condition
and arranged to ship lambs from New
zealand to cope with 1t. The New Zea-
land lambs which we have been selling
IN Boston are of unusually fine quality.
put we are selling them below the mar
ket price for western lambs, and were It
not for these New Zealand lambs the
price OF the western lambs would be
even higher than 1t Is now.
AS a result of transaction which
has added to the available supply, which
has kept the price of western lambs
from going higher, and which has actu-
ally given the market fine quality lambs
at lower price. we have been indicted
Maybe those who are responsible for
our indictment do not want the cost of
living reduced. Certainly 1t is species
OF camoufage for political effect to In
dict US for bringing in lambs from New
zealand and selling them for less than
the domestic lambs can be bought"
