NATIONAL AIR SCHOOL
PROPOSED IN FRANCE
laurent ynac Plans Aerial Engi.
Ileering Institution at
Sorbonne.

Creation of a National School of
Aeronautics by the French government
has been proposed by NJ. Laurent
Eynac, first French ar minister, &C
cording to word received here. He plans
to create an institute of aerial engi-
neering at the Sorbonne, N Paris, with
branches at several of the other lead
ing French universities.
The air minister hopes by this means
70 supply French aviation with highly
trained technicianS, who will improve
exiting models of French planes and
create new ones. The new government
school will absorb the present High
School of Aeronautics. from which
nearly 1000 a%eronautical engineers
have been graduated.
The proposal is a part of the pro-
gram of the French air ministry to
build up French civil aeronauticS, de-
velopment of which is tagging behind
that of Germany, italy and Great
Britain.

Winter Flights Between Quebec
and Seven Islands Are Begun.
Two Runs a Week.

Winter air mail service between Que
bee and Seven Islands was begun last
month on a schedule Of two flights a
week, the Canadian government has an
nounced. A service of two round trips
a month has been established between
Seven Islands and Anticosti Island, in
the Gulf of st. Lawrence, and a weekly
service between the Monckton and Mag
dalen Islands, New Brunswick, is sched-

Another Canadian Winter air mail
line was inaugurated previously between
bennington and Pelee Island, Ontario,
on a six-day-per-week schedule. Ex-
perimental air mail service is being
operated between Winnipeg and CAL
gary. Other Western Canadian routes
have been suspended for the Winter.
Approximately 100000 pounds Of air

Reserve in training. The Air Corps off,
Ger should receive two weeks of active
duty each year and be able to fly regu-
larly at Reserve airdromes. If he is
unable to fly regularly his value as a
military pilot will greatly decrease.
At present facilities for Reserve train
ing are available to IL Reserve air
dromes and 8 Regular Army fields. BY
the end of the fiscal year it is stated
that there will be approximately five
training planes at each field. Funds
available for the fiscal year 1929 allow
$500 flying hours for Reserve pilots.
There are about LOO Reserve pilots
in the United States who are active
flyers. To keep these men in training
this year there are only 20 airdromes
for Reserve flying. which will have five
planes each by the end of the fiscal
year. Thus, $500 flying hours does
not allow for each officer enough time
in the air to enable him to keep in safe
flying training.

Sea Plane Fishing
In Brittany Hats
Old-Time Methods

The fishermen of Brittany, who
for generations have chung pas
sionately to the time-honored
methods of their calling, will call
the airplane to thei- aid this
Spring.
Seaplanes will be used to locate
schools of fish, observations of
the fishing banks being made by
eye and camera. Planes will be
sent out in advance of the fish,
ing feet and will return to port
with the results of its survey just
before the fleet sails. Another
plane will accompany the fisher
men and keep them posted on
changes i'll the location of the
fish schools while they are at sea.
The spotting Of fish from the
air has been a recognized posi-
bility since the days of the North
Sea submarine patrols during the
World War, but the airplane has
not been used intensively for this
purpose.

The formation of an American COM
pany to manufacture in this country the
famous Savoia- Marchetti seaplanes and
amphibians, with which Italian flyers
have established a number of records,
has been announced. The company will
be known as the American Aeronautical
Corporation, with Offices in New York.
In addition to the present types of
Savoia- Marchetti planes the company
will undertake the designing and pro-
duction of large passenger flying boats.
A. Marchetti, designer and engineer of
the original Italian company, will serve
on the engineering committee of the
American concern.
The noted Italian planes have been
flown on many remarkable air trips,
among them the flight of Marquis
Francesca de Pinedo, VINO spanned six
continents on a so, 000-mile trip; the

Types in Design.

A new type of aircraft, said to be a
combination of the helicopter and auto
giro types, the invention of N. v.
Isacco, is being built for the British
air ministry at the Saunders Aircraft
Works at Crewes, Isle Of Wight, accord
ing 10 information received by the De-
partment of Commerce.
1t is claimed that the machine will
rise and descend vertically and hover
In the air. It consists of a fuselage

Came 1923, and with it a still finer
Pontiac. Even then the price remained
only $745. And after six months, during
which this car became one of the best sellers
in the autOmotive field, more improvements
were announced. Last July, Pontiac was
made faster, more powerful than ever and
more attractive in style.
This brief history is significant. 1t
recalls Pontiac's origin and the introduction
of true motoring luxury into the low-priced
field. 1t relates how Pontiac s progress has
matched strides with the increasing de-
mand for luxury among those hundreds of
thousands who form its market.
But most important of all, it gives you
an idea of something that is coming. Auto
mobile history is repeating itself again.
Soon Oakland will present a brand new
Pontiac Six, an even greater advancement
over other low-priced cars available today
than the original Pontiac represented in
1926. Beyond any question, this new car
is Oakland's greatest achievement in
Pontiac's field to date. Watch for the

1t had bodies by Fisher. 1t sold for
1925. 1t introduced real luxury and beauty
to buyers in the low-priced field. This new
car was the Pontiac Six. During its first 10
months, it more than doubled the full first
years sales of any new make of car. That
is still a worlds record.
But Pontiac's builders did not rest
content with their early triumph. They
knew that Americans progress. They knew
that American standards oil luxury and value
are continually increasing. They knew that
American people are constantly on the look
out for new and finer things.
So in February, 1927, they introduced
the New and Finer Pontiac Six. And it was
lower in price than ever, selling for SITS.
Then, in July, another objective was
reached. Greatly increased production
enabled Pontiac's builders to reduce the
price again. Now Pontiac sold for $745.
