Pittsburgh, April 3d. H) = Eleven
OF the balloonists who bravcd the
electric storm which claimed two of
their comrades in last years national
elimination races are ready to take off
on another quest for national honors
here May 4.
Their prayers are for clear skies and
favorable winds. But two or three OF
their number are pessimistic or cau-
tious enough to arm themselves
against a repetition OF last years
disaster.
Ward T. Van Orman, winner Of
four national races and one interna-
tional contest. has devised cage-like
affair to protect himself against such
4 terrifying experience as he suffered
last year when his aide, Walter w.
Morton, was killed by lightning.
Van Ormans anti-lightning device
is an adaptation of a "Farraday
cage" which attracts the electrical
bolts to itself and protects its occu-
pants. The device has been under ex-
Fermentation for several months near
Akron, where lightning like bolts Of
electricity have lashed 1t in tests.
It has been installed on the Good
year VII, which Van Orman will pilot
this year with Alan l.. MacCracken
as his aide.
Capt. william j. Flood and Lieut..
u. q. Ent Of the army air corps have
scrapped their radio for this years
race because they believe 1t had an
effect upon the disastrous crash of the
army bag last year.
Lieutenant Ent was aide to Lieut..
Paul Evert last year when Evert was
killed by lightning. Ent remained IN
the basket with hts stricken comrade,
and later was awarded distinguished
service cross for hts heroic act.
Capt. w. e. Kepner. veteran army
pilot, and his aide, Lieut.. w. O. Ear
cckson, winners of both the national
elimination and Gordon Bennett bal
loon races last year. will defend their
international honors. They do not
have to compete in the elimination
race here, but become entrants in the
Gordon Bennett races at st. Louis
September %.
The IL balloons entered this year
include three army contestants. two
from the navy, three Detroit Flying
club entries, one from Pittsburgh, the
Goodyear VII, q st. Louis Chamber
of Commerce balloon, and one from
the American Business club at Akron.
H. E. Honeywell. veteran Of % years
in balloons. will pilot the st. Louis
Chamber Of Commerce entry. He won
the national contests In 1912, 1916
and 1920. but was forced out Of last
years contest shortly after the take
off when the severe electrical storm
unleashed its havoc.
Other veterans Of last years race
ready for the 1929 contest are Capt
Edmund w. Hill, army: Lieut.. Thomas
u. q. Settle, navy: Edward ]. Hill
Detroit; Walter Chambers, Pitts
burgh; w. A. Klikoff, Detroit; Arthur
q. Schlosser, Detroit "a native OF
Grand Forks and q brother Of Walter

there), and Arthur G. Hoskins, De-
troit.

Simmons Lays School Delay to District Officials
REVEALS SPIRIT
Of B|CKER|VG
IN OFFICES

Representative Robert G. Sim
mons Of Nebraska, chairman of
Of the subcommittee Of the Dis
trict Of the Appropriations Com
mittee, has vigorously returned to
the attack ON District officials for
delay in the construction Of pub.
lie school buildings.
In speech In the House Sim
mons once more declared that de
lay In building Of schools was
due to District officials and not
to reluctance of Congress To ap-
propriate sufficient funds.
Simmons also revealed that O
spirit Of bitterness prevails be-
tween municipal employees, the
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission. and the Office
Of Public Buildings and Grounds.
Grant Denied II
This revelation came In q let.
ter from Col. u. 3. Grant. Ord. to
Simmons which the Represents
tive read In connection with. his
speech.
The letter was In answer 10 b
statement by Municipal Architect
Harris. In which Harris said that
delay In construction Of the pro.
posed Deal Junior High School
81 Fort Reno was because the
architects office had to wait for
location and grades On the fort
drive to be determined by the
Planning Commission.
Grant, in his letter said that
the location and contour for the
fort drive III the vicinity Of Fort
Reno we're given to the municipal
architect in February. Of 1923.
The letter from Grant says, Fl

In fact, some Of the hostility
