NEW YORK, Dec. IA broad

any other radio program may serve
to guide airplane pilots in the
future, according to Geodfrey G.
KrueSi, Los Angeles engineer, who
has invented q new direction de-
vice.
Kruesi has been asked to demon
strate his invention, which he calls
a "homing device" for airplanes,
to the army air corps at Washing
ton next week.
The invention consists of a loop
antenna mounted on the outside Of
the plane and a dial mounted be-
fore the pilot. If a flier desires to
fly from Cleveland to New York, he
simply tunes in on a program being
broadcast from the latter city. He
swings the loop manually to obtain
the greatest intensity of the broad
cast. The needle on the dial points
TO the direction of the station.
