 After compiling losing streak
 of one consecutive game, the Ath-
 letics returned to the winning col
 unsn yesterday as their fellow Penn
 sylvanians, the Pirates, climbed in

 lifting bat. The Buccaneers turn
 ed this trick by sitting idle in the
 rain while the Giants dumped the
 Cardinals by to 4 at St. Louis.
 The Athletics defeated the
 Browns by , to ?. and Of course.
 gained full game over the St.
 Louis contenders, who fell into third
 place. The Yankees worked ardu- -ously for twelve innings to defeat
 Cleveland by 6 to. at the Ruppert
 Stadium. Both the Yankees and
 the Browns now are six and one
 half games behind the Athletics. but
 St. Louis in percentage because Dan
 Howleys men have played more games and lost more.
 The Mackian victory gave Ruhe
 Walbcrg another opportunity to
 display his mastery over the S.. louisans. who collected only four
 hits off his delivery. Coffman and Crowdcr were subjected 10 an
 eIeven-hit harraee which included
 home uIns by Cochrane and Ring
 Miller. Two of the four St. Louis
 blows were consecutive homers in
 the seventh by Mclillo and kress.

NEW GASOLINE GAUGE
PROVES AID TO FLYING
Device Is Accurate to Within / Per
Cent, Showing Fuel
in Tank.

A new type of electrically operated
gasoline gauge for airplanes which is
| claimed to be accurate to within ! per
cent of the exact amount of fuel re-
manning in the tank has been perfected
in the research laboratory OF the Gen.
eral Electric Co. by j. H. Payne.
The instrument measures the gasoline
supply by weight, showing the result on
an electric meter having a scale cali
brateo to indicate gallons instead of
amperes. 1t consists of a small metal
container about the size of IN ordinary
door-knob, which is attached to the
drain cock at the bottom Of the fuel
tank and connected to the indicator on
the alrplane instrument board. In the
door-knob container is a diaphragm, an
electric coil, a carbon pile and wires
which electrically indicate the weight of
the gasoline on the bottom of the tank.
This instrument has been shown in
tests to record to within one-eighth of
an inch the amount of fuel In ar air.

addition to its accuracy and simplicity,
an outstanding feature of the gauge is
the absence of copper connecting or
glass recording tubes, which are liable
to freezing or ~breakage, and except for
the indicating meter Oh the instrument
board, has no movable parts"

'AIRPLANE BUILDERS
MERGE IN ENGLAND
Vickers Acquires Supermarine
Firm, Holder of Several
Important Records.

Airplane manufacturing Is entering
the field of big business ip England as
a result of several recent mergers of
leading English companies. The con-
solicitations are in line with the plan adj
vocated in France by Louis Bleriot of
obtaining a concentration of effort to
bring about an improvement of design
and manufacture of airplanes.
Prominent among the British mergers
is that of the famous Vickers firm and
the Supermarine works, at Southamp-
ton, in which the Vickers interests took
over the entire Supermarine stock. The
merger is of considerable Importance,
as Supermarine, said to be the oldest
constructor of seaplanes in Eng
land, holds many important rec
ords. The Supermarine Napier SIS
won the Schneider Cup race at
Venice last year. It's predecessor, the
Supermarine Sea Lion, won the same
trophy in 1922. The first foreign long
distance cruise by the British Royal Air
Force was made from England to Egypt
two years ago in SupermarineS.
Another important merger is that of
the A. v. Roe Co. of Manchester and
the Siddeley group. The Roe organi-
cation has gained worldwide recogni-
ton with its Avro planes, the best
known of which is the two-seater Avian.

RADIO AND ALTIMETER LEAD
IN FLYERS FIGHT ON FOG

Radio waves, sent through the cable,
would be picked up by planes flying over
the field, so that they could easily de-
termine the exact location of the field
and the direction in which they should
land.
To aid the plane further in attempt
ing to land through a dense fog,
marker radio beacons" would be placed
at strategic points along the leader
cable. The marker beacons, through a
standard set of radio signals, would d.
rect the aviator to drop his plane to
200 feet at one point, to $50 at another,
to 100 feet a little later and finally to a
safe landing.
Use of radio telephony between the
plane pilot or navigator and the airport
operations officers would open another
avenEc to aid the fog-blind pilot.
DR.. Anderson already has started a
systematic study of lights to determine
their fog-piercing qualities.
Development of low altimeters which
would indicate the exact height of an
airplane above the ground from a few
inches to 200 feet also are looked upon
by DR.. Anderson as another possible
key to the part solution of the fog
| flying problem.

AVIATION AWAITS
HOOVER DECISION
Views of Future Chief ExeCu.
tive Arouse Renewed
Speculation.

ASSOSidtC0 ElcSS ANldllOn EQttOT.
Return of President-elect Hoover to
American soil has resulted in renewed
speculation as TO his policies concern
ing the future of aviation.
References to the future of air travel
In addresses delivered on his Latin
American tou have stimulated discus
sion among leaders in the aeronautical
industry, who now await the President
elects first official action on aviation
matterS-aeronautical activities of War,
Navy and Commerce Departments.
In accordance with custom. the three
Assistant Secretaries for Aeronautics
will submit their designations to the
incoming administration. They are r.
Trubee Dawson. Assistant Secretary of
War for Aviation; Edward P. Warner,
Assistant Secretary of Navy for Avia-
ton, and William P. MacCracken,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for
AeronauticS.
The posts we're created only two years
ago, when legislation was enacted upon
the recommendation of President Cool
1dge after his consideration of the Nor
low board report.
President Coolidge selected three
young mer1-a professor OF aeronau-
tics from Massachusetts Institute Of
Technology for the Navy post. a Chi

of the American Bar Association COM
mittee on aviation laws for the Com
merce Office and a former naval aviator
who has been close to aeronautical de-
velopmentS since the var for the War
assistant secretaryship.
Chief speculation now centers around
whether Mr.. Hoover will continue these
men in his official family and whether
they will accept reappotntment.
Almost simultaneously with the eX-
piration of the terms Of the three
cabinet officers the term of Rear ADJ
miral William A. Moffett, chief of the
Nays Bureau of Aeronautics, will end
in March. According to naval custom
and routine, Admiral Moffett would not
be continued as administrative head Of
naval aviation. The Navy Department,
too, is in the midst of its flve-year
building program, which includes the
development of two huge dirigibles in
which Admiral Moffett has taken espe-
cial interest.
