REVIVAL or AMERICAN
 INTEREST IN AERIAL GLIDER

New York, July 1s.-Revival of Amer 1can interest in the aerial glider which dropped from prominence when the Wright Brothers produced their first motor drlVen plane, was predicted by the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce of America today, in announcing that three young Americans will sail for France Saturday with their newly de signed glider to take part in the first international gliding contests to be held in August at Clermond- Ferrand.
 The trio Edmund T. Allen, Chicago, Harry c. Karcher, Mansfield, O., and Ot- to c. Reopen, Mamaroneck, N Y..- built their glider at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where they are students of aefonautics.
 On June 2 Allen tested it out at Ips- Wich, rising from g 50-foot elevation ir a 15-mile head wind Altogether five successful flights were made. It reach ed maximum elevation of twenty feet and advanced a maximum distance in one flight, of 200 feet.
 As the result of these trials. the young men. with the assistance of other aeronautieal students at Cambridge, re designed the glider into what they be- lieve is the most efficient type yet pro duced. The sfrail little aircraft has a span of 24 feet, chord, or wing width of four feet, nine inches and measures sixteen feet over all. It is of spruce and fabric construction and weighs but eighty pounds The most successful of the famous German gfiders weighs 14s pounds. Yet the Cambridge craft has g, factor of safety Of four.
 SThe entrance of the United States into the international competition in France" said the chambers statement marks new phase in the development tof American aeronautics. Germany, de prived of the privilege of orthodox engi- neering, after the arnistice, turned te motorless airplanes, and at competi- tion last fall, distances as great as 15 miles were traversed by gliders France was quick to arrange for general con test and experimentation has been going on ever since in most of the large na- tions of the world. There probably will by three score entrants in the French affair."
 "The American aircraft industry will watch the results of the French compe- tition with keen interest. The attention of the world is divided between the helicopter, capable of vertical flight. and the glider, or motorless airplane Both have much to contribute, but the glider appeals probably more to sportsman ship. 4 great deal should be learned aerodynamically from rnotorless flight
