IA. ASSEMBLING AND FLYING
THE MODEL
To put the various parts OF the
model together. take the frame and
make sure that the propelers are
so placed that when the point Is
directed away from you as in the
above illustration the right hand
propeller will have to turn to the
right to push the wind back to you,
and The left propeller must rotate
left TO push. The large wing is
fastened between the openings Of
the rear X-brace with two thin long
rubber bands, which are placed
under each stick and the two loops
opened above the stick, and the
wing passed under these loops, which
when carefully released onto the
wing surface will hold it in place.
The elevator is fastened in a SINH
lar manner about three inches from
the point. Both of these surfaces
should be placed with the point of
highest curvature toward the nose
of the model. The wings must now
be lined up to be at right angles to
the center line of the frame, and
not twisted in regard to each other.
1t is assumed that the rubber
motors we're placed on the frame
when the power plant. was described
in Article 10, therefore all is now
together. 1t will be noticed that
because of the formation of the ele-
vator the front edge is higher than
the rear edge, thus no elevating
blocks are needed.
To balance the model glide it
several times before launching it
under power. Thrust it from you
gently while holding it by the pro-
pellers on line with your eyes and
If 1t climbs or dives move the ele-
vator back or front respectively to
correct that tendency. In cases of
extreme need for adjustment the
wing may be similarly moved. When
all is in perfect balance the model
is ready for flight.
A large field, with no distractions,
Is required. 1t should be large
enough so that the model will have
plenty Of chance to go as far as it

HempePs soprano claims that Au-

can without interruption For the
first flights rather calm day is
preferred. Allow an assistant to hold
the propellers while you go to the
nose of the model and attach the
IS" hooks to your geared winder.
Stretch the rubbers at least twice
their length and wind the rubbers
about 200 turns of the winder, in
the direction necessary to impart
correct rotation to the propellers.
AS you wind the rubbers come in
toward the nose so that when YOU
finish you will be right at the nose
hook and can attach the IS" hooks
there. Now take the propellers one
in each hand, sight along the model
for a final assurance that all is
correct for flight, stoop down as
shown in the picture and face the
wind. Careful handling is very
necessary throughout this stage of
the preparations as the frame is
under great strain from the rub
Der motors pull and any unusual
twisting may cause it to break.
Therefore from this crouching posi-
ton carefully rise and as you do so
launch the model at the angle
shown. Do not thrust it much, Just
give it gentle placing on the air.
The model should climb rapidly
against the wind, then turn and
fly with the wind. If it climbs or
dives. correct it as for the glides.
If 1t turns to one side move the
wing slightly to one side and test
again. When perfect fights are OBJ
tanned carefully mark the position
OF the surfaces IL: order that the
model may always be placed in the
best condition.
1t is hard to predict the fight
possible with this model, but it can
safely be said that if the model has
been carefully constructed in &C
cordance with this series of articles
1t should fly at least for a distance
OF 1000 feet and a duration of a
minute and half. 1t is we'll with
in possibility that those figures may
be doubled or even trebled. de-

lightness Of the model. In the next
article will be described a few fea-

and it is constantly becoming more
costly, according to DR.. j. NJ. Doran,
Prohibition Commissioner, who has
just returned from a ten-day tour

Doran calls it wildcat" beer, re-
ferring, he said, both to the way it

Near Beer is Fine
On the other hand he said the
near-beer makers have increased
the palatability of their product
until it is as good as most old-time
beer, and are selling more of it each
year.
Sales, he said, will aggregate 5000
600 barrels this year, or one-tenth
of the peak consumption Of real
beer before prohibition.

all beer odors.
"But I found that beer in Chicago
was poor in quality and was selling
for $50 barrel, or twice its price a

Wants Change in Method

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Aug 18.--While
extending heartiest. congratulations
to the winners of the Dole prizes,
Clarence M. Young, aeronautics di-
rector of the Commerce Department,
declared today that future contests
of this type should be arranged on
a different basis.
AS result of his experiences
in officially inspecting the pilots
and planes entered for the Dole
event, Young believes more time
should be allowed for selection and
inspection of properly equipped
planes and for the examination OF
pilots and navigators.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-08-18

No bad weather has been reported,
and both planes were SO equipped
that the gas tanks could be drained
to give them enough buoyancy to
stay afioat.
1t was believed, if they ran out
OF gas, the chances were much in
their favor that the empty tanks
would keep them afloat for while,
at least.
Besides the sandwiches, water and
other food they carried for use on
the way over, both planes had
emergency food rations sufficient to
keep the occupants alive for several
days.
In it's anxiety over the fate of the
missing fliers, however, Honolulu did
not forget to pay tribute to the cour-
age of those who succeeded.
Coebel, pilot Of the Woolaroc,
which took first prize of $4,000,
and his navigator, W. v. Davis Jr.,
have won the city by their modesty,
their boyish pleasure at their feat,
and their tender solicitation over the
plight of the lost f1iers.
Martin Jensen, who won the sec
ond prize of $4,000 in the Aloha, is
Honolulu's biggest man, for Marty
was flying for the city in the great
race and Honolulu was overjoyed to
see him safe and "in the money"
Reconciled With Father.
Goebel and Davis, after the first
crushing welcome which followed
their landing at Wheeler Field at
1888 p. m. Wednesday, Pacific
time, refused to take the rest which
many felt they needed, and spent
the evening in talking over the
flight. dining comfortably at the
Royal Hawaiian Hotel, and in
dancing.
Jensen, whose wife collapsed at
Wheeler Field few minutes before
Marty" hove into sight, and who
became hysterical with Joy when
she saw him, went tc bed for three
hours during the evening and then
came down town to speak briefly
over the Honolulu Advertisers radio
broadcasting station.
An interesting feature of Jensen's
flight was that it caused recon-
ciliation between the pilot and his
father, Nels G. Jensen, of James,
town, Kan. The elder Jensen had
objected to Martyrs flying career
and during the last year an
estrangement had grown up which
threatened to grow into a final
breach.
But Wednesday night for the first
tinle in year Jensen's father COM
municated with him, cabling from
