FLIGHT HOPE
WAVES

Adventurous American avi-
ators who have established a
nonstop flight around the
world as the supreme goal Of
sky pioneers, have found so
difficulties besetting
their, path that there is little
likelihood of the attempt being
made soon, aviation authorities
said here today.
A half dozen projected attem = to
write this brilliant new chapter In
the rapidly changing aviation his
tory of the last three years have
been temporarily or permar tly
abar oned.
Lack Funds
Financial backing of $250,OO0 to
$500 900, estimated to be necessary
to insure fair chance to attain the
great goal, is the chief obstacle.
I Despite temporary setbacks, avla'
ton authorities are confident tha'
the flight ultimately will ie MADE
I'VE have had information OF a
number of proposed attempts TO
make a nonstop flight around the
world. but so far as we know at the
present time the projects are still IN
allowance, said Frederick r. Neeiy,
general manager of the National
Aeronautic Association.
such flight would require
months of preparation. Not only
would the fIiers have to have the
hest plane that aviation offers, but
elaborate preparations would have
to be made to refuel in the air at
various points on the world course.
Expect Flight
aviation authorities generally
expect the flight to be made. After
what has been done in the last few
wears, who would dare to predict
overwise. The great endurance
flight of r, L. Robbins and James
Kelly at Fort Worth recently lasted
for more than 172 hours with a
single-motored plane. Had they
been travelling at normal cruising
speed of 100 miles an hour, they
would have circumnavigated the
globe.
Most er durance flights, however,
are made at a cruising speed OF
about so miles an hour, and usually
are made in better weather than
a pilot could hope for on a world
trip"
The endurance flight of Robbins
and Kelly ana that of the Army
plane, Question Mark, however,
have stirred the ambitions of many
fliers, who see in them proof that
a plane can make a journey OF
IT 900 to $4,000 miles around the
world.
GobeI Plans Trip
Art GobeI, famous flier,. who won
the Dole race from Oakland to
Honolulu, recently confided to
friends here that he is planning a
round-the. world flight. He indi-
Gated, however, that the present
season is not propitious, and that
he would defer his effort until next
year.

and had already picked a $95,000

CARRIER Pigeon
VISITS HOME HERE
Rests Is Guest Of Residents on
Hamilton Street

About ) O'Clock yesterday after
noon a peculiar noise outside the
dining room window Of Mrs. A. S.
Parsons home at 40 Hamilton
street attracted her attention. At
first she paid no attention to 4,
thinking that the noise was caused
by falling pieces OF icicles. The
evenness Of tapping sounds on the
window pane however aroused, her
curiosity and she decided to inyes-
tiEate. Going into the dining room
she saw a uigeon perched on the
window sill on the outside. pecking
with its beak at the glass. She went
to the window. but the bird would
not hy away. whereupon Mrs. Par
sons brought some bread crumbs
and. opening the window. placed
them on the sill. The bird evidently
was not hungry as it did not touch
the food. but sat in the farthest cor
ner on the window sill. as if resting
before starting on a long journey.
At S o'clock Mrs. Parsons hus-
band came home from the New
britain National bank. and she told
him Of her find. whereupon he went
into the dining room and took the
pigeon in. 1t was purplish green In
color, and when Mr.. Parsons ex-
tended his hand. 1t showed no signs
Of fright. Thinking 1t might be Il
carrier pigeon. Mr.. Parsons began
to search for letters and numerals.
He found them on one Of the legs
and the little card bore the num-
Der 3713-A. P.-oS-V. The bird
was exceptionally tame and cuddled
UP closely when its rescuer took it
In his hands.
After examining 1t to make GER
tain that it was not injured, Mr..
Parsons placed the bird in a bas-
ket on the veranda. and when he
went out again at I, O'Clock in the
evening. the bird was gone. appar-
entity on another leg Of long jour-
ney after gaining a rest.
