An aviation instruction schoo
known throughout the country, To-
Gated at the Hoosier airport, Kess-
Ter Blvd. and Lafayette pike, il
helping to make Indianapolis "ail
wise"
The Hoosier airports slogan is:
''IndianapoliS-Where Americas All
Lines Cross" and it is helping to
provide the air crossroads city with
competent aviators.
More than two dozen business
men and aviation enthusiasts OF
Indianapolis and from other states
are enrolled in the school, which is
operated by Harold C. Brooks and
Bob Shank, owners Of the airport.
Both Brooks and Shank are eX-
perienced aviators, having started
flying before the war, They taught
Army aviatorS during the war as
civilian instructors, and have flown
ever since. Capt E. w. Sweeny is
the school instructor.
Must Pass Test
Before enrolling for course, each
student pilot must pass stringent
physical examination by DR.. Wilbur
F.. Smith, 01912 College Ave, district
examiner for the Department Of
Commerce.
A flying course at the Hoosier re-
Quires from three to five weeks, with
lessons five times a week, to turn
out a pilot to whom the school will
entrust one of its own planes for
his solo flight.
The first day the student takes
the stick for straight flying. Next
he practices landing for a week or
two and later is taught how TO keep
out of dangerous positions. Land
ing is usually the hardest thing to
learn and taking off the easiest.
One of the students is Joe Rand
Beckett, Republican nominee for
joint State Representative from
Marion and Johnson Counties.
Many Students Enrolled
Among students who have beer
graduated are Elton E. Jones and
Henry Ramsire, New Albany, vino

Company; J. E. Baxter, president

SOUTH SIDERS PROTEST
ELEVATION WORK DELAY
Committee Named to Study FLOOD
Prevention Proposal.

Delay of the track elevation pro-
gram for the South Side was scored
by the Garfield and Surrounding
Civic League Thursday night at
Garfield shelter house.
A committee representing asso-
ciated leagues on the South Side was
asked to investigate the delay and
urged the project be pushed. Study
of the track elevation program and
the flood prevention work was asked
of the committee before the June %
meeting.
It was decided that a petition for
the "skip-stop" plan on Shelby st.
will be circulated in the neighbor-
hood. The alternating stop plan is
designed to speed up traffic.

Ends Air Tour to Coast

Arthur M. Hood, 3119 N. Meridian
ST., returned here Thursday after
a six-day trip to the Pacific Coast
by plane. Hood left Indianapolis
$50 p. M, Friday, by the mail plane
to Chicago. He took mail plane
out of Chicago, stopping at North
Platte, Neb., Omaha and Cheyenne,
Wyo., where he changed planes;
then on to Salt Lake City via Rock
Springs, Wyo. He arrived at Salt
Lake, Saturday morning at 1920.
After attending business con-
ference, Hood took train for Los
Angeles Saturday afternoon, arriv-
ing in the coast city Sunday after
noon. Monday he took a trip down
to San Diego in one of the big
twelve passenger planes in regular
passenger service, and returned to
Los Angeles the same way
After concluding his business in
Los Angeles, Hood caught an east
bound plane Wednesday morning at
1890, and arrived in Indianapolis,
flying back over the same route he
used going West, at 1890 a. m.
Thursday-exactly twenty-four hours
later.
THE planes are quite comfortable
and very safe and steady" Hood
said. 1.-THE ones from here to Chi
cago and Chicago to Salt Lake had
cabins and easy chairs for the pas
sengers. The one I flew from Los
Angeles to Salt Lake City was the
only open ship I rode in.
But the thing that particularly
impressed me was the fact that the
whole trip from Los Angeles to In
dianapolis, took less time than the
comparatively short train ride from
Salt Lake City to Los Angeles. I
found it very good way to travel"

HE LET HORNSBY GO,
STONEHAM DECLARES

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. January 26-The Eve
ming World yesterday quotes Charles A.
Stoneham. president Of the New York
Giants, as assuming full responsibility
for trading Rogers Hornsby to Boston
and explaining that 1t was necessary ito
centralize McCraw as the personality
that directed the Giants"
In statement to the Evening World.
5toneham made it clear that no personal
controversy between himself and the
second baSeman was involved, as had
been generally believed.
The only time I ever talked to
Hornsby during the season." said Stone
ham, was when he had his batting
slump and was being raZzed from the
stands. sent for him and told him not
to pay any attention TO that He told
me it did not bother him. That was all
I said TO him all season. The story Of
his having insulted me in Pittsburgh is
absolutely untrue"
The Giants executive. asserting he
expected to meet violent criticism for
his action, explained that he decided to
trade Hornsby after noting how he man
aged the club in McGraw's absence
Il had noticed that with McGraw
away the club had adopted different
methods. that the hours were different
and that the general method of pro-
cedure was different. The change may
have been all for the better. but / felt
it was not the spirit of McGraw. II
daWned on me that TO remedy this and
prevent any possible conflict in au-
thority it would be best TO send Hornsby
Elsewhere"
