 Lieutenants White and McMullen shattered all existing records be- tween New York and Buenos Aires and intermediate points. From New ark airport to Miami, Florida, the fliers reduced the flying time three hours. For the first time in the his tory of aviation, a land plane con- quered the treacherous air currents of the Caribbean. All along the route, from Miami 10 Panama to Santiago, Chile to Buenos Aires, new flying records made this trip unique in the history of aviation:
 Flight Filled With Hazards
 Though the plane operated per fectly, the flight was filled with un- reckoned perils which at times en- dangered the lives of the fliers. High up through the redoubtable Andes the fog blnding their observation sc that they had to ascend to height of 21,000 feet--above arid desert land where a forced landing would have meant a. lingering death-over vast areas or virgin jungle-stch ch were the hazards faced when the fiers undertook the flight which was to prove that long distance flights between the Americas are practica- ble.

Sometimes we can hardly find shot butter or icmpcr around the field, but there are always plenty of vaulters. This Yale tradition is one of the strong est I have ever seen. One of the most promising Of the present crop is Bill Cone"
 Cone won the pole vault at the Penn Relays at B feet but he has vet to show he can fill the cham pionship shoes of Carr and Sturdy.

Tommy did 1911 at the Drake Relays, barely missed 14:2, a worlds record height. He, too, is carrying on fine tradition.
