4 NILE IN 10 SECONDS

Lieutenant Afford Williams the L. S navv's crack
speed flyer has new seaplane of unique design in
which he is going to try to break the world sDeed
record of 3S miles per hour the international sDeed
races in England in September.
1t is reported that he will try to reach speed of 400
miles per hour in his tiny plane nearly all of which IS
motor anu which looks lot like an overgrovn mos
quito.
The little ship said to De the fastest airplane ever
built 1t is of 100 horsepower and weighs only four
pounds to the horsepower ratio never before achiev
ed. 1t has 24cylinder with IS sparkpiurs four
carburetors and four distributors The wings are so
tiny in proportion to the motor that if the engine sto
ped the ship would fall like pummet as it could not
glide In other words, it has go through the air like
bullet, mostly on its momentum
1t has minimum speed OF 100 miles per hour mean
ing that Lieutenant Williams must land and take off
at speed greater than the maximum of most planes
This makes landing the water especially dangerous
because if pontoon struck even small piece of
driftwood at this terrific speed there might be a dis
aster.
We fail to see where very much is going to be ac-
complished for aviation by stunt like this but we
can't help but admire Lieutenant Williams for his
and the tremendous risk he will assume in
making the attempt. If he succeeds in breaking the
record in this fra bulIet-ike plane on which he ev
perts have labored long, will be not because Of the
machine, but because there was man who was d9ring
enough to fly it.
We wish him well; hope he makes IT, It's going to
be thrilling attempt and his bravery should be re-
warded with success.
But, after all, it will be only q stunt and-=uccaed

PROMOTING PEACE

Germany, the maker of war, has become Germany the

Fifteen years ago. scientific minded Germans were

But today the same scientific and technical skill

good will
The mighty Graf Zeppelin is an outstanding example.
Coming to the United States to start its round-the-
world flight, it probably has done more to promote
friendship than all Germanys statesmen put together
People don't fear things persons they can see and
understand It's the hidden and unfamiliar things that
arouse fear.
The German-built Bremen, fastest steamship afoat
Is making bid to regain the nations passenger bus-
ness on the seas and it Is also creating good will.
And another German giant-the 100-passenger Dor

More than eight years ago, Strlb-

as q GIFT from his acrobstic dad who
had taught him 10 box and guided
him through successful gymnasium
bouts. "Pa" had promised his son
that on his sixteenth birthday he
would be rewarded with his first real
prize fight.
The elder Stribling sought out the
late Walk Miller, then q budding
f-ht promoter in Atlanta, and asked
for a chance for his young son to DO
acme boxing.
Miller was reluctant. he wanted
the youngsters record and looked
asksnce on the few gymnasium
skirmishes.
PA" Stribling made the desperate
suggestion that his son be placed on
Miller's next card 70 rnothing. Just
his expenses from Macon TO Atlanta

THAT will be all we'll expect"
The esgerness Of the father made
an impression on Miller and he &C
cspted the arrangement. The result
was that Stribling was matched for a
f%our-round bout with q rugged little
newsie, Kid Domb. Stribling won.
Again the boy offered 20 fight
without recompense. Miller made
another arrangement whereby the
youngster was matched with Tim
O'Dowd. O'Dowd lasted for two min
utes of the first round.

youngster and q third bout-without
