WRIGHT FIRST
TO FLY ABOVE
INDIANAPOLIS
Pioneer AirpIane Builder
Staged Exhibition Here
In 1910.

In the yellowed files of The In
dianapolis Times there's a story OF
aviation-a story that is in queer
contrast to the present tales of the
air. X
It's the written account of the first
pu;elic exhibition of flying ever held
in Indianapolis. The date was June
Is, 1910, when Orville Wright, and
his aids, were the first pilots.
Less than 500 persons were spec
tators at the Speedway when Wright
took off from the ground. The pu-
bile was still skeptical about the sue
cess of flying. The Wright Bro
theirs had brought their fleet of five
planes and a few amateur" pilots
had come here to participate In the
first National Aviation meet, to ex-
tend over six days.
Small Crowd at Start
The public, at the opening of the
show wasn't overly interested. 1t
remained for young man named
Walter Brookins to interest them.
On the very first day of the meet
Brookins, in an attempt to break
the altitude record, scared to the
"almost unbelievable height of 1884
ia feet" A large crowd was on
hand the next day.
The present altitude record is
something like 10000.
/ On Thursday, Brookins amazed

COMPLETION OF
NEW COLEMAN
HOSPITAL NEAR
Dream of Great Center of
Medical Structures Is
Close to ActuaIity..

There's something of realization
of an idealistic dream about the In
diana Medical School grounds, as
workmen put the finishing touches
to the new Coleman Hospital.
While the sounds of hammer and
saw, in the hands of craftsmen
working on the new building,
reverberate, those interested see in
the structure another addition to-
ward the making of great hospital
center in Indianapolis.
The hospital is practically COM
plete and will be ready for patients
about Oct. l. 1t will accommodate
approximately 100.
When it has been completed, an
other link in the hospital chain will
have been forged. Near by is the
Robert Long Hospital Not so far
distant is the James Whitcomb Riley
structure.
Hospital Near BY
And but few short blocks away,
probably destined sometime to be-
come almost a part of thee grounds,
is the city hospital. Authorities
hope that the day will come when
the city hospital will be connected
with the other structures by a vast
convalescent park.
AS though determined to keep the
work going without stop, work
men already have begun the task
of erecting the Ball home and train
ing school for nurses.
The building will be built within
stones throw of the Coleman
structure, and will cost a half mil
tlion dollars. The project will be
financed through a gift of the Ball
family of Muncie.
Exterior of the new nurses home
will be of English Georgian type
and will be constructed with red
brick. Trimmings will be in stone.
Lecture Rooms Provided
The nurses residence will face on
Michigan st.
Lecture rooms, laboratories, dem
onstration rooms and study halls
will be provided in the building.
Already workmen have the exca-
walton completed and foundations
are going in at a rapid pace.
The entire hospital center is stu
ated on 125-acre park owned by
the city and State, lying between
Michigan and Tenth Sts, immedi-
ately east of White river.

Kobosic Sees Red; Mrs. Ko1ucs Can't
See It; SO the House Is DECIDED

BIZ NEA Service
LORAIN, O., July 8.-When
cleanup week came to Lorain
George Koposic was moved by the
urge to beautiful his home.
Koposic owns half two-family
house, the other half being owned
by Mrs. Carl Kovacs, who lives
across the street.
Being man of generous spirit,
Koposic told Mrs. Kovacs he would
pain the whole house, her half as
well as his. She accepted the offer
in the spirit in which it was made
and told him to &c to it. s,
Koposic bought a can of paint. 1t
was gay paint; a brilliant, eye
dazzling red. Koposic began to ap-
ply it to the house.
Mrs. Kovacs saw 1t. She went
over to Koposic.
mo house of mine will ever be
painted that color" she announced.
Koposic looked first at the paint
then at the house and then at Mrs.
KovacS.
mo house of mine will ever be
painted anything else" he said
firmly.
He kept on painting.
So Mrs. Kovacs got busy. She
hired painters, bought some sub
dued brown paint and set the men
to work on her half of the house.
Koposic kept on painting his half.
All day long the rival painters
painted. Kcposic's half of the house
became a screaming red; Mrs.
Kovacs' half became a neat brown.
Koposic put bright green trim
mings, on his half. Mrs. Kovacs'
men put white trimmings on her
half.
Each scrupulously respected the

AIR AMBULANCE WILL
CARRY INJURED RACER
Norman Batten to Leave Methodist
Hospital for Dayton.

DdNbLA W A@So'N
Hospital for Dayton.
Norman Batten, race-driver who
has been in the Methodist hospital
recovering from burns received
when his car caught fire in the
Memorial Day Speedway race, has
announced his intention Of return
ing to Dayton, Ohio, by airplane.
The plane will be used as am
bulance, Baton not yet having
recovered sufficiently to stand on
his legs, and will be piloted by Eu-
gene Batten, his brother.
Despite the fact that he was
forced out of the race in a daring
blaze of glory on the twenty-seventh
lap, Batten earned approximately
$4,000 as a result of gifts from busi-
ness men and others who saw the
race and we're impressed by his
craftsmanship.
The race driver piloted his car
the length of the stretch in a blaze,
refusing to jump until he had the
car under control.

owners could not agree on color
schemes.
But Mrs. Kovacs and Koposic
are still friends. They have no
arguments or ill feelings; they nod
and smile when they meet on the
street.
1--WE got my half painted, and
that's the way it's going to stay,
says Koposic.

down the middle of the house. All
on one side was red and green; all
on the other side was brown and
white.
One porch pillar was painted red
on one side and brown on the other.
The front steps were treated the
same way.
The job has been done and the
house stands there in all its glory,

thousands = yes, the crowd hac
grown that large on the fourth day
by heading his plane straight
into a twenty -fve-mile gale and
emerging victorious"
Heavens! Dead Motor
The crowd got it's first real thrill
on this day, when Archie Hoxsey
plotting his plane at a height of 100
feet suffered the misfortune of a
dead motor"
A gasp went through the stands
Hoxsey was seen working the con-
trolls. A few seconds later he had
the plane in a glide and landed
safely in a nearby field.
Meanwhile, entertaining the crowd
as their part of the show were: A.
L. Welsh, E. P. Coffyn, Ralph John
stone, Joseph Curzon, the Wright
brothers, Wilbur and Orville; Lin
coin Beachey,, and few amateurs"
>Boastful Crew
Beachey had come here from To-
ledo and lamented the fact that he
was forced to ship his plane by way
of Springfield, ILL.,, because the di-
rect route offered no cars large
enough to hold the plane.
IT won't need their railroads
long, he said, "Ill be flying from
town to town."
This is said to have drawn several
laughs.
Another thrill came on Friday
the fifth day, when Brookins went
out to better his altitude record
Before his plane stopped climbing
it had reached height of 4,938 feet
a new record.
Brookins was hailed as the estab-
Usher of record (which will prob
ably stand for all time"
