ARE STILL
FLYING

NEW YORK. Dec. 81 0.NS).-
Ten years after the end of the
World War finds five of Nortf
Americas greatest aces of tie ali
still flying. still pioneers of a new
mode of travel.
The recent successful transcon
tinental flight of Richard James, II
yearo high school aviator o1
Flushing, l.. l., resulted in the as
semblage of these five eagles OF
the Allied forces in New York to-
day. 1t was the first time they
had all been together since those
memorable days in France.
1t was learned that all Of them
are still aviators. They were in
vited to take part in the festivities
In honor of James by the American
Society for the Promotion of Avia-
tion and they expressed delight
over the opportunity to honor their
youthful colleague.
Perhaps the best known of the
five aces is Major George Vaughn.
Major Vaughn has the distinction
can war ace. With the exception
of Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, Vaughn
shot down more German planes
than any other American flier. He
has been active in aviation ever
since he left the Army. At present
he is the commander of the New
York State Militia Flying Corps.
Second in reputation to Vaughn
Is Col. Harold E. Hartley, who was
the commanding officer Of the First
Aero Squadron of the A. E. f.
Coronel Hartley is active in every
movement that has the advance
ment of flying science for it's pur-
pose.
Col. f. NJ. Roberts. who was a
member of the royal flying corps of
Canada, during the war. is now an
official of the National Aero Cor
poration. He made frequent flights
to all parts of the country.
Capt. Frank Hale is another Of
the aces who fought with the Ca
madam army. Hale, it will be re-
membered, joined the r. F. c.
Hardly a week goes by that does
not see him doing tricks in his own
plane.
Lieut.. Walter Pryor completes
the group of five aces. Like Hale
and Roberts he also did his fight
ing with the r. F. C. He is now
handling publicity matters for the
Forthcoming New York aviation
show. as we'll as doing some special
flying for the New Jersey Air Ser
vice Corps in and about Newark.
