Plane Talk
BY CAPT. JOHN M. WEIKERT

Air Corpe Commander OF Cadets.
T INDBERGH'S heroic fight over
IL the Atlantic to Paris in 1927
really marks the beginning of the
present universal interest in Amer
lean youth in aviation.
1t was this spectacular feat of
personal courage that captured
youths imagination and fired them
with the fanatic zeal to emulate his
achievement and create for them
selves career in this new sphere of
endeavor.
This air. consciousness swept rap
idly through the nation. All we're
affected by it. 1t was noticeable in
the play and dress of children. High
school youths everywhere began
forming model plane clubs. They
reproduced miniature models of cur
rent aircrafts that rivaled their
originals for perfection of design
and scaled down performance.
college students demanded
~ courses in aeronautical engi-
neering. Private schools in flying
and for mechanical training sprang
into existence in every thickly pop
ulated district in answer to the
public's desire to fly. Commercial
passenger traffic received a marked
impetus and airmail and express
tonnage increased.
Public interest in the United
States Army's Air Corps Training
Center reflected this national pop
ularity in a sudden barometer-li like
rise in the receipt of letters of in
quiry. The attention of America s
young career-men was focused on
the governments aerial training sys-
tenn, its efficiency having been pre-
viously accorded universal recogni-
ton and the professional opportu-
mites it represented.
Here they found an outlet fol
their desire to fly, and at no eX-
pense to themselves, plus unlimited
possibilities for commercial connec-
tons.

Cubs War Clubs
Fail To Bark
AgdinstCdrds

There will be no World Series
payday in Chicago at the end OF
this National League season, unless
the Cubs rally the pitching and
batting strength they've shown
in the last few weeks and begin
slapping the gaShouSe gang
around, instead of taking it on the
chin with practically no come
back whatever.
The Cubs two straight losses
to the Cards might not mean so
much, if they were in there
whanging away, but they have
picked a most inopportune time to
tall into a slump. and in the two
games have scored a grand total
of two runs while the Cards were
making 10.
The Cubs alright pitching and
sharp, if not powerful, batting at
tack suddenly have dwindled to
nothing, with a brace Of games
left in the Chicago series and an
other set coming up at st. Louis
within the next few days. The
Cards right now are blazing.
After taking the series opener
by 6 to /, yesterday they trounced
the Cubs again by 4 to l, with
Tarzan Parmelee outpitching
Carleton and Warneke, among
others, the result being that the
Cards increased their lead to two
games.
The Cubs now are only 3Ha
games ahead Of the third-place
Giants, who whipped the Bees
again, 8 to 4, with Mel OFT hit
ting two more home runs for a
total of four in two days and 25
for the season.
The Dodgers beat the PhilS.
7 to 3. and in a night game at
Cincinnati the Reds came from
behind to defeat Pittsburgh's
Pirates, 6 to 4.
The YankS maintained their
margin in the American League
by beating the Red Sox, u, on
Johnny Broaca'S SEVENTH pitch
ing, while the Second-place In
dianS were trimming the Tigers,
Ga, with three runs in the tenth.
Harry Kelley, the venerable
rookie, came through again for
the Athletics, but with some diff
ficulty, beating the Senators, 9-6.
The st. Louis Browns beat the
White Sox, 16-4, in the opener Of
a double header and a merciful
rain brought the nightcap to a
close in the seventh with the
score tied at 50.
