NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The ma
tional balloon race scheduled to start
from Birmingham, Ala, this month
and the international contest for bal
loonists to start from the same city
in October are expected by Aero Club
officials in charge of the races to set
new records. This hope is based up
on the greater gas capacity of the
balloons and lessons of construction
learned in the war.

ers lined up each aspiring to be one
of three who will defend the Gordon
Bennett cup which has been in Am
erica since being lifted from France

as the race was announced. Three
bags have been entered by the Army
air service, one by the Navy and an
other by the Army Balloon school, at
Fort Omaha. The other ten balloons
have been entered by civilians. The
entry of the balloon school will be
piloted by A. Leo Stevens, who,
with Professor David Todd. of AM
herst College, won fame last spring
by an attempt to pick up radio-elec-
trio waves from Mars through a re-
ceiving station 10000 feet above
the earth.
The second race which is to start
October %, will be the fourth occa-
sion on which the United States has
defended the Gordon Bennett inter-
national trophy since it's foundation
in 1906. The entries, six in all, are !:
italy two, United States, three and
Belgium one.
Although America is the title hold
err by virtue of winning the last race
France has an unbeaten record for
distance made in 1912 when Maurice
Bienaime covered 1861 miles with
out touching land, besting the AM
erican record of, LIP miles set in
1910 by Alan R. Hawley.
The ballon "Belgica," of 1000 Gu
bic meters capacity has been entered
