PLANE MAP

LOS ANGELES, July %. U.P) =
A map which records the minute by
minute progress of an airplane au-
tomatically and with utmost preci-
sion today was detailed by DR.. Sam
uel Spitz, former naval officer, who
believes he has perfected the pro-
cess.
DR.. Spitz, inventor of the sonic
depth finder-a device which de-
termines the ocean depth by sound
waves-explained the new invention
at Union air terminal where he is
preparing final tests.
No two airplane propellorS set up
exactly the same sound, the scien-
tist said Utilizing this principle, two
microphones mounted on a plane
pick up the soune of the propeller
and relay it by radio to a highly
sensitive apparatus at the airport.
There it is transformed into elec-
trical energy which lights globes
tracing the planes flight.
The globes are placed behind a
huge map divided into squares rep
resenting two mile areas. AS the
plane enters any particular square,
the light flashes.
The device will enable airport at
tendants to tell pilots their exact
courses and positions, DR.. Spitz as
serts. If plane crashes, a light re-
mains fixed on the two mile area in
which it fell.
Practical experiments will be
completed within the next 80 days.

against rebelling NaZ1s.
Statesmen questioned by United
Press correspondents agreed but for
combination of circumstances
which frustrated the Austrian Nazi
revolt, Europe might have been
pushed to the edge if not into the
abyss of war.
Most believed a crisis had been
postponed, not solved
1t was predicted that Austrian Ma
zis would prove difficult, if not i'm
possible, of determination.
Rapidity with which Premier Be-
nito Mussolini of Italy sent two me-
chanized army corps to the Austrian
frontier instead of resorting to di-
plomacy of appealing to the League
of Nations demonstrated the i'm
minence of armed action.
Bad feeling remained. Adolf Hit
ler's apparently sincere gesture of
friendship to Austria, in appointing
Franz Won Papen special minister
and in dismiSsing Theo Habicht as
leader of the Austrian Nazi legion
naires in Germany, failed OF sue
cess.
In Buenos Aires last night a dy-
Mantle bomb was found outside the
German legation. In Warsaw yes
terday a hostile demonstration was
dispersed by mounted police from
in front of the German legation. In
other countries inspired newspaper
editorials, openly hostile to Hitler,

Crowd Cheers
Almost straight up in the calm air
the balloon rose to the rim of the
bowl. At the 500 foot level, just as
the gondola cleared the rock-bound
rim, Major Kepner cast off several
bags of ballast which he had placed
around him.
With this weight gone, the bag
seemed almost to leap upward. Ris-
ing steadily, it began a slow drift
eastward, in The direction expected
TO be taken throughout the flight.
From the floor of the bowl, only
about $50 persons, most of them
soldiers who made up the ground
crew, watched the takeoff.
But on the rim above, an esti-
mated 10000 persons cheered at the
tops Of their voices as the balloon
rose.
Once safely clear of the bowl,
Major Kepner was to enter the gon-
dola through one of the man-holes,
which is placed near the top of the
metal ball.
Then, at 10000 to $4,000 feet the
crew planned to seal the gondola,
making it air-tight for the remain
der of the flight, and to depend up
on their supplies of liquid air and
liquid oxygen to maintain a breath
able atmosphere within it.
Major Kepner, just before the

about ID miles would be reached,
and admitted he would not be sur
