Not long ago thought wouldn't be able
to get through the clouds on account of the
ice on my wings Starr says Finally I was
able TO accomplish it, but Immediately ran
into some cross-winds that had me all balled
up. Since I was flying blind and my instru-
ments were frozen over wandered over some
where in Iowa.

so that I could direct myself toward the West,
then I nosed down bit and watched for the

Thomas Hardin who is president of the larg-
est and most complete privately owned aircraft
depot in the South, is also weather observer for
Dallas and vicinity He is considered au-
thor upon weather conditions
"The seasons never vary much in the upper
air." he explained. Its no colder in Winter
than Summer when you get that high. In
fact, from my records during the past year, I
find that it was actually warmer up there some
times Winter days than it was last Summer.
"One time I went up about 900 feet
extremely foggy morning Upon coming down
I not only couldn't find the airport in Dallas,
but couldn't locate Dallas. turned and went
to Fort Worth, about 80 miles away. but was
unable to find the landing field there, on
account of the heavy fog. My gasoline supply
was rapidly being exhausted, but my best bet
seemed to be to return to Dallas
so started back. Suddenly pole of high
tension electric line whipped by my ear, and I
had to set the plane down without the least
idea of where I would land. Luck was with
me- and came down in field. There was no
damage either to me or the ship"
One of the oddities Hardin relates from his
experiences is that matches will not burn in
the upper air because of the lack of oxygen.
For that reason any effort to smoke might be
impossible.
But Tom didn't let that fact stop him. He's
too used to battling against the elements to
give up without struggle. So he rugged up
electric cigar lighter on his instrument
board, and now he smokes the way up and
down.

In Chicago Harley T. Gambee has charge of
the weather observing for the Midwest section.

example, once on an apparently peaceful night

But when I reached 10000 feet a terrific

keep the plane climbing and also dodge the

Petroleum St0rage

THE petroleum industry in this country Is
well equipped to pile up reserves of crude
oil and refined products to carry over periods
of intensive consumption. The Bureau of
Mines estimates that the tank capacity for stor-
age is about 1000000,00O barrels, of which
about seven-tenths is used for holding unre-

HIS business OF weather loIeCdSIuls
the daily routine Of telling folks
about coming rainfalls snow 1urries
or sunShiny days-has reached the
p2int where it has men "up in the
air" over it most of the time. And
discovering it to be thrilling JOB, filled with
exciting and novel experiences.
Every morning in the cold gray hours be-
fore dawn, four airplaneS leave their hangers
climb and disappear into the clouds AS they
soar higher and higher, leaving the sleeping
world below, each pilot, sitting alone In the
cockpit, knows there are three other men in the
United States up in the early morning air with
him, although he never sees them
They are Uncle Sans four flying weather
observers-one in Dallas, one in Omaha, one

ly new Previous to July, 1881, the Govern
ment obtained all information Of the weather
upstairs" as it is called by the use of kites or
balloons with recording instruments attached.
The knowledge was rather limited. None OF the
methods proved especially satisfactory.
Last July the Government decided to use
human observers in airplanes regularly, so that
more accurate reports could be obtained every
day regardless of weather conditions After
several months trial it found that the
reports from these men were of direct benefit
to aviation.

every day, they encounter many hair-raising
experiences that the average flyers never run
into. On their flights they wear bulky, heavy
things-an electrically heated suit electrically
heated helmet and mtts queer looking face
mask para chute and other odds and ends.
The aerograph is queer looking gadget that
each pilot hangs between the struts of his right
wing suspended on four cords. 1t is nearly as
delicate an instrument science provides. 1t
records the temperature, humidity and atmos-
pheric pressure at various attitudes.
"Our reports have to be completed early in
the morning and telegraphed to Washington
so that weather conditions all over the country
are forecast before o'clock for the day" says
Ralph C. Wensinger, Cleveland's observer.

Firms Threaten
10 Quit Games

NEW YORK, July Is. U.P)-Pa-
avo Nurmi, the Flying Finn, will
run in the Olympic games at Los
Angeles or the Finland Olympic
team may walk out on the games
and go home, according to Urho
Kekkonen, president of the Finland
A. A. U.
President Kekkonen, who arrived
Thursday, said, IF it should turn
out that Nurmi is not made eligi-
BILE to run at Los Angeles, it is
very likely that the Finnish team
will return without competing"
Kekkonens statement, coupled
with the prediction from j. Sigrid
Edstrom of Sweden, president of
the International Amateur Athletic
federation, that Nurmi probably
will not be reinstated, paves the
way for a heated controversy at
Los Angeles, preceding the Olym-
pics.
Nurmi was suspended some
