DISAPPOINTED AT
SMALL PATRONAGE
FOR AIR CARNIVAL
Will Drop Plans to Hold
Pulitzer Races in
San Antonio.

A movement fostered by the San An
tonic Aeronautic Association and local
Air Service officers and having for its
purpose the holding of the Pulitzer
airplane races in San Antonio, came to
a sudden end Wednesday through the
failure of the people of San Antonio
to give their support to the associa-
ton by attending the start of the
balloon race and the aerial demonstra-
ton. according to Air Service officers.
The crowd that attended the races
was variously estimated as ranging
from $4,000 to 10000 people, but the
larger part of this number belonged TO
the free list.
1t was reported that several thou
sand automobiles were parked in South
San Antonio and a large number OF
others parked along the Frio City road
beyond Kelly Field. y A number of
people turned back rather than pay the
admission price.
Lack of patronage will also probably
prevent the association from attempt
ing to secure the start of the next in
ternational race to be held in the
United States, according TO Kelly Field
officers. Even though record may
be established from this city, it is not
considered likely that hackers for the
race can be found.
Officers who attended the st. Louis
races, last year state that the aerial
review and demonstration together
with the airplane races at Kelly Field
Wednesday were far. more thrilling
than the races at st. Louis last year.
Paid admissions at the st. Louis races
numbered 12j.000.
