II the night air Is q bit chilly. Sec
ond, that the "City Of Chicago"
simply must stay up until july 1, Or
until Sunday, when 4 landing can be
made In q spectacular fashion before
the largest possible crowd. Third,
that II the plane won't stay up that
long, there should be ct least a hours
notice before It. descends, so things
can be arranged Is well a. possible.
The filters receive 500 an hour
from an old company, 81 per minute
from . malt company for broadcast
ing and share of the receipts from
crowds at Sky Harhor.
All this was transmitted to broth
ers John and Kenneth In the endur-
ance ship.
The reply Of the endurance flyers
was q request for q 60-cent jew's-harp
to aid In Willing the hours away.
This request was the only note re-
ceived from the filters last night. But
notes earlier in the day indicated that
Kenneth and John were not In accord
over continuing the flight, which en-
tered Its fourth week yesterday.
Kenneth was reported to be wholly
In favor Of calling 1t all a day or
night. He complained because John
was able 10 sleep much longer than
he. and intimated he was fed up on
the whole thing.
Eats More Carefully
To which sister Irene, on the
ground, retorted John eats more
carefully and takes care Of himself.
No wonder he sleeps better than Ken
meth"
It was the belief Of field attaches
that the will Of brother John would
prevail over the tagging spirits OF
Kenneth, and that barring MOTOR
complications the "City Of Chicago"
will soar on until Sunday. :.
Meanwhile rival radio chains were
vying for laurels in the business Of
castinC the voices of the endurance
fliers to the eager radio world. The
Columbia chain, which first broad
cast the voices OF. the Hunter BROTH
ers from their endurance plane three
days ago, was unable to make proper
contacts for radio interviews in two
attempts.
The National ~Broadcasting COM
pany then essayed to do the same
thing in the army experimental ship
which was used by the Columbia sys-
TEN. The national company said a
successful contact was made last
night, w%hereYpon one Columbia rep
resentative at the field spoke harsh
ly of his rivals methods. A peace
wa effected later.
Apparently convinced that the
Hunter brother are anchored to the
sky and will descend only at their
own convenience, the crowd Of several
thousand persons watching the flight
began dr. arting early last night.
OFFERS Unverilied
Telegraph companies with tempor-
airy offices at Sky Haybor continued
to do a rushing business, receiving
congratulatory kilograms from all
parts Of the country and several from
abroad. It was reported that the
filters had received offers ranging
from : 5000 to $4,000 = week to make
"talkies" and appear on the stage.
These reports could not be verified.
The "City Of Chicago" was enjoying
perfect flying weather as dawn ap-
preached. The ship was flying with
out lights. but the roar Of its motor
was heard over the airport at regular
intervals. Experts listened and de.
clared they could detect no serious
flaws.
Judge Michael Feinberg. in circuit
court, today refused to interfere with
the endurance flight for the time be-
ing, setting aside until Tuesday the
injunction proceedings started yes
terday by stockholders who claim to
be original owners Of the record
making ship. The suit called for q
receivership and accounting Of the
"City Of Chicago's" earnings.
Counsel for the Hunter brothers
told Judge Feinberg the 1iers have q
$l0o, 900 contract to appear with their
plane in q motion picture immedi-
ately after the flight. He said their
various contracts would be nandi-
seriously II court action ties
them up.
The brothers today requested that
the hearing Tuesday be held In a 81
passenger transport plane, saying they |
intended to remain in the air over
Sky Harbor for perhaps another
week. |
At 11:40 a. m. est, they passed
their 524th hour off the earth and
were 104 hours ahead Of the previous
