AIR MAIL WILL
BE TRIED OUT
here MONDAY
Test Plane From New Or.
leans to Chicago Is
Scheduled.

The feasibility of establishing ar
air mail route between New Orleans,
La, and Chicago, with Indianapolis
as a regular stop will be tried out
Monday, according to Postmaster
Robert H. Bryson. A test plane, en-
route from New Orleans to Chicago
will stop here, Bryson said.
The plane will be in charge Of
Lieut.. Vincent Meloy and Capt.
Herbert Fox, both of the 1O5th Aero
Squadron. The trial flight is being
fostered by citizens of Nashville,
Tenn, headed by Postmaster w. J..
Callaghan.
Proposed Route
The proposed route is from New
Orleans to Montgomery, Ala,
Birmingham, Ala, Nashville, Tenn,
Louisville, KY, Indianapolis, and
Chicago. The route, when estab-
lished, would probably permit a fly
ing time of about ten hours, but the
trial flight will take longer, Bryson
said.
Inc test plane Will leave New
Orleans at 6 a. m. Monday and is
expected to land at the FIT. Harrison
flying field In mid-afternoon. A bag
Of mail will be made up at the In
dianaopis office and dispatched via
the plane to Chicago, provided pos
tai authorities at Washington will
authorize the shipment, Bryson said.
Not Much Saving
If the route is established it will
not mean a very great saving in
time between Indianapolis and Chi.
cago, Bryson said. But it will save
considerable time on mail from In
dianapolis to New Orleans. Just
how much time will be saved cannot
be estimated until the schedule is
worked out.

School officials, on the other band.
are optimistic concerning the out
look for enforcing the ANTHRAX rule
this year. They believe that the

more effective. because the Board
