A|RMAN MAKES NEW
ALTITUDE RECORD IN
FLIGHT YESTERDAY

A new altitude flying record was
made yesterday at Dayton, Ohio, by
Lieutenant John A. Macready, test
pilot at McCook's field. who climbed
to height of 40,S00 feet in the same
La ,Pere biplane used by Rudolph c.
Schroeder. who set record of 3S,100
feet on February %. 1920.
Lieutenant Macready was in the air
one hour and AZ minutes, requiring
all but few minutes of the total fly
ing time to reach his mark. At 10000
feet ice formed on his oxygen tank.
but he pressed on until the altimeter
registered Al 200 feet. AT this point
his engine coughed and died. He
then glided safely to the ground
Macready's new record is 1920 feet
higher than that of Schroeder. and in
this flight the pilot suffered none of
the hardships met by the former chief
test pilot. Schroeder's eyeballs froze
and excessive dilation of the heart
kept him in a hospital nearly two
weeks after the flight. On landing.
Macready declared he suffered only
from numbness, He climbed out of
the plane unassisted and posed for
photographs.
Macready was clothed in the heav-
lest furs with special helmet and Cog
giles. To insure clear vision special
gelatine was used on the goggles to
prevent collection of ice. The suit
was electrically heated throughout.

LITERARY SOCIETIES
START AT A. H. S.

School days are here again, and with
them are several hundred students in
the High School alone. In fact this
years enrolment far exceeds that of
any other year. To insure the good
fellowship of the scholars. and to pro-
mote the get together" spirit among
classes. the Seniors, with the help of
their English teacher. Miss Dryden,
are going to form two literary So
cieties.
The Seniors are at present working
on the constitution which will be
formally adopted when the societies
get under way next week There will
naturally be a great deal of rivalry
between the societies for the honor
of having the best selections, best act
ing. orations, essays. etc. In short,
there is a keen feeling of interest
among the classes and there is no
doubt but that this movement will
be a tremendous success and add
credit 10 the school.
Another new feature of the coming
years work is the Year Book" pub
lished by the Glass of 1922 This is
not new idea but ii is the first time
that it will have been attempted by
the Annapolis High School therefore
the hearty cooperation and help of
every person in Annapolis is asked for
this undertaking.
