 Gasoline company officials should smile broadly if they are within the range of stations con- tracted with by the American Air lines. The airline officials an- nounced last week that contracts have been signed to use 4,30O,0U0 gallons of gasoline in it's fleet of seventy transport planes. Incident ally this is not the total business from the company for contracts are to be let in the near future for 100000 more gallons of gasoline and 125,000 gallons of oil.
 The New York City motorcycle club gave the visitors at the Molll- son airport real thrill last week Sunday afternoon when they pre- sented an exhibition of fancy rid- ing.
 Fred Moller expects to close contracts within a short time for the opening aerial carnival at the Mollison airfeld sometime in May The American Legion posts of Bridgeport and Stratford will spon- sor the event.
