Notman will remain in this

GLENN CURT|SS
SEES DAY Of
AEROTAX
Pioneer Of Aviation Says
Planes Driven by Radio Within
Range Of Reason.
BY WILLIAM RANDORF,
Cosmopolitan News Service.

GARDEN CITY, L. l., Aug. 22.--
Aeroplanes driven by radio energy
pumped into the other!
Aerotaxis that you whistle down
from above and which quickly and
cheaply take you to your destina-
toni
Aeroplanes largely replacing ships
for ocean voyagesl
Such developments Of the con-
quest Of the air in the future were
foreseen as possible today by that
pioneer in aviation. Glenn II. Cur
tiss, chairman of the executive
board Of the curtiss Aeroplane and
Motors Corporation.
'Fanciful as such predictions may
seem." he said, they are entirely
within the range Of practical de
velopment Of flying. Who could
have predicted thirty years ago thar
the trtumphs Of modern aviation
were possible?
Radio Machines Tested.
"Radio-operated aeroplanes may
sound fantastic. but already the
inventor. Nicola Tesla, has tried to
reduce what seems dreamer's
vision to practical tests. II not ne,
then some one else viii probably
succeed some time. How the en-
ergy will be used we do not know
as yet. Perhaps the air win be
pumped full OF 1t. and everybody
will be able to draw it. Perhaps
1t can be rationed out to prevent
waste"
Leaving the working out OF these
marvels he sees as possible future,
common places 10 others. Curtis is
today working on plans Of more
immediate import to flying.
More power, less weight, less
head resistance, are the results we
are striving for in aviation de
velopment today" he declared.
THE less the machine weighs, the
less fuel need be taken and the
lighter it Isl the more profitable
cargo can be carried in q flying
machine.
THE question OF fuel is Of spe-
cial interest. For one thing, the ac-
cidents which resulted in explosions
or burning of the machine were
mainly caused because Of the gaso-
line carried.
Experiments are now being made
to adapt the Diesel engine 50 a
light engine operated by oil can be
used to replace the present gasoline
engines. This would not only
tighten the load, because the oil
needed would be lighter, but also
prevent accidents. It is essential,
however, to have an engine much
fYk pa,4r.
whose heaviness makes it inprac-
ticable for flying machines.
Such an engine, operated by
compression instead Of through
sparks, aS in the case of gasoline.
would practically eliminate the Ian
ger Of fire.
Flying for more or less common
purposes, Mr.. Curtiss believes, will
be an established fact before most
people Of today expect 1t.
Speed. rather than large carry
ing capacity, will always distingu uish
transportation by air. said Mr.
Curtiss. But because no expensive
rights Of way and tracks and other
essentials OF q railroad are needed,
and because an aerop1ane can go
wherever it wants, provided there
are landing fields 1t will be possi-
BILE to bring the price of air travel
within reach of all desiring to
travel. Also, while most trains. take
twenty or twenty-six hours to reach
Chicago from New York, the aero.
plane Of the future will be able in
that time to make a full return
trip and be nearly halfway pack
again to the Windy City in the
same time"

PATIENTS TREATED IN

ATLANTA. April 26.-More than
$4,000 patients were treated in the
Il Baptist hospitals of the south
during the past year, according to a
report that has been prepared for
! the hospital commission by Dr.. +.
P. AlIredge, official statistician Of

Der had no church connection. The
remainder were divided among var
ious religious bodies.
The value of the hospital property
of the denomination is now given as
$8,300,000, a gain Of $816,240 in
the past year and extensions during
the coming year amounting to
1925, 900. A total of 973 nurses are
in training at the hospitals and dur
ing the year 1868 charity patients
were cared for at an expense Of
$257195. The hospitals occupy %

the public will see the two clash
this summer, probably at the new

Benny continued. 1T is to win the

mer with Mickey Walker. And if
I definitely eliminate Tender and
snatch the title from Walker l am
through for good"
Leonard has Just started training
for his summer. campaign. He is
now in Chicago where he will take
on Pinkey Mitchell soon. Then will
come other conditioning" bouts to
get ready for the two tough strug-
giles he has cut out for himself.
If Leonard succeeds in holding off
Lew Tender, the most formidable
contender for the lightweight title,
and wins from Mickey Walker,
holder Of the welterweight crown,
he viii have established a unique
record in ring history.
Such a feat would rate Leonard
the class Of three divisions. Several
years ago he came in at the light
weight limit and fought Johnny Kill
bane, featherweight champ. Kill
bane was not compelled to make
weight and there wasn't much differ
ence in the poundage Of the two
boys. Kilbane was knocked out. the
only time in his career.
Leonard has fought Britton, for
mer holder of the weller crown, sew
eral times and has a pretty good
idea of what he will be up against
in a bout with Walker He feels
that he will be equal to the occasion.

Finley succeeded in making A of the
visitors take their seat.
The locals were also doing some
tall biting. The Lanier bunch got
10 hits while the locals got -. l
suppose some of the readers will say,
If Americas played all that good,
why didn't they beat? Well, folks,
to tell the truth, our boys just lad
a bad day as far as luck was concern
ed. The hardest luck was encount-
cred at the backstop position. The
regular catcher. Edwin Player, had
been hurt in a former game and
thought it best not to play. Two sub
stitutes were tried, but due to lack
of enough practice they both failed
in ther attempt to weather Finley's
steam. This was the reason why the
visitors got the lead and held it.
Near the last of the game Player
was put in his old position and from
then on the game was a close affair.
The Macon youth had an excellent
infield, in fact it was almost as good
as ours. During the game they
made two double plays, which wire
executed beautifully. The infield al
so made three-fourths OF the put
outs. which was a great help to the
pitcher.
For the Macon youths Mckenzie

one out for three sacks. Newberry,
at short, played good game, and
Skinner as catcher was also shin
ing light.
For the locals. Finley, without a
doubt player the best al-round
game, with Olm Jones, our snappy
centerfieIder, running him close
second. Finley's pitching was ex-
cellent and Jones fielding inimita-
bic. They both did wonderful bat
ting. Reed was also a star with
the bat. He sung two in the inner
most parts of left field, but was too
low or rather two lazy to go any
;arther than first. Broadhurst sue
oeeding in polling out two-bagger.
