Giant HeIicopter Wanted by Italy
After Inventors Successful Tests

ROAIE.-When in October the hell
copter invented by Signor Corridino
dAscanios broke three world records
for that type of aircraft in the trial
flights near Rome the aviation world
took notice But the machine which
accomplished those performances will
appear as but a plaything when COM
pared to the prodigious helicopter
which, If present plans are carried out,
will cut up capers in the air above the
capital or other Italian cities within
years time.
Exuberant over the success of the
existing machine the Italian govern
ment has charged the inventor with the
task Of constructing a two-paSSenger
super helicopter capable Of ascending
vertically TO an altitude of more than
1900 feet, of flying from Rome TO Pisa
at a speed OF not less than so miles an
hour and of lowering like butterfly
above the Piazza Venetia in Rome
within few feet of the pavement, but
without touching it.
D'AscanioS' helicopter boasts safety
features similar to those recently devel-
oped on autogyroS, since its horizontally
revolving blades or veins permit easy
landing even when the engine stalls.
This helicopter has the advantage over
autogyros in that it can ascend or de-
scend perpendicularly and, as recent
tests have proved, can remain virtually
motionleSs in the air.
D'AscanioS. who was IN the United
States as a plane designer during part
OF the war, began working on designs
for his helicopter seven years ago. and
soon had developed models which gave
satisfactory results. In 1927 the Italian
government signed a contract with the
inventor which provided for the con-
struction of a machine which the gov
eminent was to buy for 600, 900 lire If II
succeeded in certain tests. D'Ascanios
completed the helicopter in March OF
this year and the test flights were
begun soon afterward, Mai. Marinellc

trolls. broke the worlds helicopter rec
ord fight Turning rather sharp cor
ners, the helicopter negotiated tri-
angular course of five-eighths of a mile
with comparative ease. Two days later
the bizarre craft broke straight-line
distance record by flying nearly three
fourths of a mile across the Ciampino
field
The altitude record was captured on
October 10, when the helicopter ascend
ed to height of So feet and returned
to the starting point indicated by a
circle inscribed on the ground. In ad-
dition the machine assembled to height
of I6 feet and remained stationary in
the air for one minute, a test which
the original government contract called
for.
With the pilot, the existing DAscanios
helicopter weighs about one ton. An
air-cooled radial motor of 80 horsepower
drives the perpendicular shaft to which
the two pairs of horizontally revolving
blades or veins are attached. The craft
is propelled by these blades. One pair
revolves in one direction, the other in
the opposite direction, and If the num-
Der of revolutions of the one pair is
increased, the speed of the other pair
is decreased so the total number OF
revolutions of the two pairs always is
the same
Three small metal propellers-one at
| the right, one at the left and one in
the rear-serve the purpose of rudders.
| BY means of controls operated by the
pilot the "angle Of attack" and thus the
pitch" Of these small propellers can be
varied and it is through these variations
that the craft is guided. In case the
engine stalls in flight the pilot throws
out the clutch. the blades and per-
| pendicular shaft continue to IeVolve
| through the operation of air resist
ance and thus the descent of the craft
is gradual
Through an ingenious arrangement
the three small control propellers are
geared to the perpendicular shaft in
stead of the engine and thus, even
though the engine is dead, the small
propellers continue to revolve. The
pilot thus always Is able to control the
movements OF the machine. To those
technically instructed it will be clear
that the helicopter can be propelled
forward in the air through the simple
process Of tipping the tail upward.

Sofia, Bulgaria, Sept. 27 LP The Bulgarian delegation has declined to participate in the all-Balkan con- ference at Athens.
 The secretariat of the Bulgarian delegation today said it was influ- enced in it's decision by the attitude of the Greek Press which, on the eve of the projected conference, had been digging up painful incidents of twenty years ago in Bulgaria.

trap near the green. Seaver was on in the regulation two shots and was practically certain to get his par four. He did just that but so did Romans, by tossing the ball from the trap close to the hole Now he was two down and four to go. Seaver took three butts at the 33rd and Romans was one down.
 The 34th was halved in par fours and two holes were left. To win Homans had to take them both and he was eliminated unless he could grab one.

 The 215-yard 35th. over the quarry, was reached by Gene with l spoon, but Charley was to the left on a hill. The Californian approach ran by the cup and Romans putted few feet past. Trying for his three Seaver's putt stopped on the lip of the cup directly in front of tho hole
 Homans now found himself In a prec2rious position and an ex- clanation of dismay burst from his lips as he saw the stymie. If he struck Seaver's ball he would knock 1t into the cup and Charley would be down in three, winning the match. Romans stretched full length on the shining turf and studied the lie. He finally decided to gamble, cut his putt and sent 1t into the cup from the side. The match was square.
 Seaver missed the S6th green with his second and had to take five, one over par, while Homans holed his four and was up for the first time all day.
 Romans reached the final for the tidst time. although he was qualified four times in five trials Last year at Pebble Beach he was co-medal- ist with Jones.
 He lost to Jesse Guilford. former champion, three up and two to play in 1926 in the first round. He was defeated by Jones in the second round at Minikahda three and two and was eliminated last year by Fay Coleman in the first round, four and three.
