SEPARATE LIST OF AIR RECORDS
FOR WOMEN TO BE SUGGESTED

Creation Of separate category of
world aviation records for women, apart
from the present cficial records for
which all pilots may strive, is to be
suggested to the Federation Aeronau-
tique Internationale at the annual
meeting in Copenhagen next June
The federation is the body which places
the stamp of oficial approval on all
world aviation records.
The suggestion will be made by the
contest committee of the National
AeroEautic Association, which repre-
sentS the federation in this country, as
result of keen competition which has
sprung up among American women
pilots.
Opposition Likely.
No woman holds a recognized world
aviation record today and the proposal
of the contest board is likely to meet
with some opposition, it has been
learned. There are two schools of
thought on the question of granting a
separate list of records for women. One
side holds that women pilots should go
out and compete on an equal footing
with men pilots while the other faction
contends that the creation Of separate
classification for women would tend to
stimulate women to fly, and to compete
with one another, to the general adj
vantage of aviation.
Those who are opposed to the sepa-
rate classification of women declare
that there are already too many record
categorieS and that the creation of
more will tend to reduce interest in
competition. If unimportant world
records" are to be officially approved in
