San Antonio Flight
May Make Record

San Antonio. Texas, March 23
ca. PA new American record
and a. new worlds record for free
balloon flights are anticipated by
members of the San Antonio Aero
nautic Association and by entrants
in the National Balloon race which
Is scheduled to- start from Kelley
Field on the afternoon of April %.
The American record of approx
mately 1,4O0 miles was made in 1910
by Post and Hawley, who landed in
the wilds of Canada, north of Que
bee. The worlds record is 1896
miles and was made in Europe.
BY making San Antonio the start
ing point, officials believe they have
made It possible for new records to
be established. It is pointed out
that the drift of air currents in pre-
vious races has almost invariably
carried the balloons toward the
mouth of the st. Lawrence river.
From Kansas City and St. Louis.
both Of which have been starting
points, the distance Is about LOO
miles and this has been the normal
course Of the flight. From San An
tonic the drift of the air currents
also is toward the mouth of the st.
Lawrence. Thus, balloons rising
here will have a possible fight of
2.400 miles.
The race. besides deciding the
free balloon supremacy OF the Unit
ed States, also will serve for choos-
ing the three contestants to repre-
sent this country in the International
Balloon Race.
Ten balloons are expected to be
entered. three Of them being United
States Army entries. A cash prize
Of $1,000 win be paid to the winner
The second prize is $500: third. $500:
fourth. $500: NTH. $500, and sixth,
500. A bonus of 800 will be given
to the pilot Of each balloon starting
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1924-03-24

In the race; a bonus of $125 will be
given to the pilot who breaks the
American record. and an additional
bonus of 1928 to the pilot who
breaks the worlds record.
Each balloon probably will be
equipped with a radio receiving set
and pilots Will keep in touch with
broadcasting stations in the country
over which they pass as to the
weather conditions ahead. Meteoro-
logical data from all stations in the
United States and Canada will be
provided during the race.
Major Albert Bond Lambert of St
Louis, will act as referee of the race.
