The incoming mail is delivered simul-
taneously with the pickup, both actions
being automatic
Two-Man Airplanes
The airplanes used in the service are
manned by two men-the pilot and his
flight mechanic. who operates the mech
anism employed in making the pickups
and deliveries. The mail to be delivered
Is placed in a bag which is lowered
through door in the bottom of the
cabin on the end Of a 65-foot cable. to
which the grapple also it attached. The
plane is flown between the towers and
as contact is made between the trailing
cable and the ropes strung between the
towers the incoming bag is released and
the outgoing back picked up.
The flight mechanic hauls in the bap
by means of a small winch, opens 1t and
begins primary separation of the mail
while the pilot heads for the next
station. Actual contacts are made at
speeds of between 80 and 100 miles per
hour customarily The companys license
from the Civil Aeronautics Authority
fixes the maximum weights OF the bags
at so pounds. though twice this weight
has been handled repeatedly with
success.
The contractor is using six single
engined cabin monoplanes over the new
routes. They are the only single e-engined
airplanes now used in scheduled air
transport service in this country and the
only ones which are not required to pro-
vide facilities for passenger service. The
pickup device, with it's special shock
absorbing mechanism, has been built
into these planes, for the first time
as an integral part of the structure.
The bags employed are of special
form with blunt nose, resembling to
some extent an aerial bomb. They are
made of tough, light material and are
designed for the safe delivery of the
most fragile articles. Bottled goods,
electric light bulbs and eggs have been
picked up and delivered in tests with
out breakage.
DR.. Adams device has been used to
deliver and pick up mail from the deck
of the Leviathan at sea in the first nom
stop ship-to-shore service. 1t was used
at the Worlds Fair in Chicago to pick
up airmail three times day from
station at the fair lagoon.
Feeder Lines Held Vital.
One of the two new routes, known
as Airmail Route 1901, is operated be-
tween Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, serv-
ing 27 cities, all of which, except Will
mington, Del, are in Pennsylvania. The
second, Route 1902, is between Pitts
burgh and Huntington, w. Va, serving
20 communities in Southwestern Penn
sylvania, West Virginia and Southeastern
Ohio.

business to justify service can be added
directly to the air transport network
1t is easy to envision webs of such
local feeder lines radiating from every
one of the 180 stops on the existing
major airline routes, tapping sources of
business which otherwise never could be
developed
1t is, of course too early to say what
the effect will be on the volume of ma
tlonal airmail business. 1t is difficult
to see, however, how such local service
can be operated without materially in
creasing the volume of airmail and air
express business. 1t may we'll be that
the already tremendous gains which
have been made in airmail poundage
will be as nothing to the gains which
will result from extension of the pick
up system throughout the country.
Proving Grounds Selected.
The Post Office Department has Sc
lected two airmail routes as proving
grounds for the new service. These
routes were chosen with view to giving
service to cities which have a genuine
need for airmail but which have been
denied this service because of their size
or because of geographical conditions
which prohibited building of airports of
adequate size.
With the exception of the terminal
points on these routes-Philadelph
Charleston and Huntington, w. Va, and
Pittsburgh-none of the SO communi-
ties on the two routes ever has had
regular airmail service.
The new routes will be operated by a
new aviation organization, All-American
Aviation Inc, of Wilmington, Del, head
ed by Richard c. du Pont, president of
the Soaring Society of America and for
mer holder of the American soaring
record.
The inventor of the pickup device is
DR.. Lytle S. Adams of Irwin, Pa, who
gave up a successful career in dental
surgery IL years ago for aviation. DR..
Adams is well known in Washington. He
has made repeated demonstrations and
tests of his device, during various stages
of its development, at Washington Air
port. At one time he employed a de-
vice which catapulted the pickup sack
into the air by means of powerful springs
to impart initial motion in the direction
of flight and ease the pickup shock. The
device, as now installed on the new
airmail routes, is simpler
The ground equipment consists of two
steel inasts 40 feet high topped by 10
foot markers or targets to increase their
visibility from the air. The bag to be
picked up is suspended by ropes between
the masts and is picked up by a special
form of grapple lowered from the air
plane. 1t is essentially the method en-
ployed by Army observation airplanes for
picking up messages In the field from
ground units with which they are Coop
Grating, with refinements to make It
Evening star., 1939-05-21

The United States domestic airmail
service, now limited by lack of an ade-
quate national airport system to only
l80 cities, is becoming local service to
an unlimited number of communities
through the adoption by the Post Office
Department of an airmail pickup device
which makes it possible for mail plane
to deliver and collect mail without
landing
The first pickup airmail service, in
augurated May II at Martinsburg, w.
Va, is being extended, few stops at
time, over two contract airmail routes
authorized by the Post Office Depart
ment in Pennsylvania. Delaware, West
Virginia and Ohio. BY July both
routes will be in full operation, serving
SO communities, most of which never
have enjoyed direct airmail service.
Through the establishment of these
routes, involving the use of only six
single-engined airplanes, the number of
airmail points receiving direct service
is to be increased within a period of
two months from 180 to nearly 240,
highly significant event in view of the
fact that more than 20 years had been
required to build up the Nations sys-
tenn to 180 direct points of service.
There seems to be justification for the
belief that Inauguration of airmail pick
up service marks turning point of
vital Importance in air transportation
history. For years the airport problem
has complicated air transportation. Lack
of sufficient airports created bottle
neck which threatened to stifle future
growth of air commerce.
Few Terminals Pay Way.
Only the largest wealthiest commu-
mites can afford to construct and main
tain air transport terminals of the
type required for the operation of large,
high-speed modern airliners. Few, if
any, air terminals pay their way. Most
of them are operated at heavy loss. Yet
there has been constantly increasing
demand for larger, better equipped air.
ports to keep pace with aircraft develop
ments Under this situation it obviously
was futile for smaller communities to
hope for direct airmail service
Perfection of the airmail pickup
method, however, Immediately changes
the whole picture. Use of the device
adopted by the Post Office Department
and approved by the Civil Aeronautics
Authority makes it possible for an air
plane to deliver or pick up pouches of
mail from roof, a hilltop or the corner
of field. The ground equipment is
foolproof; it can be operated by any
one, without training. The cost is
negligible. Its use makes it possible for
any community or hamlet to become a
direct service point on the airmail map.
The implications are obvious. Airmail
and air express feeder lines can be
established without any limitations other
than those of practical economics. Every
county and every town with enough

provide airmail facilities for small COM
munities which the trunk airlines find
impractical and uneconomical to serve
with their big transport planes. and to
encourage the development of a fast
and efficient feeder system for the trunk

In aviation circles the conviction is
widely shared that the development of

two services day, morning and after
noon, when the routes are in full oper-

mail routes, thus giving every COM
munity 24-hour airmail service to and
from any part of the country.

 United Press Stan Correspondent)
 New York, April 10.-tUP)- Hitting all points around the sports compass:
 There seems to be no limit to the versatility of Slammin' Sammy Snead, the cur cnt "fair-haired boy" of the professional golfers circuit. Sammy lived up his nickname re- gently when he participated in bat ting practice along with the Bos- ton Red Sox. The line drives which Snead cut loose impressed manager Joe Cronin but Sammy, who was an all-round athlete at Hot Springs, Va, high .chool, says he is going to stick to golf, the game which presently pays for his meat and Po- tatoeS.
 Down in San Juan, Puerto Rico they have their own idea about bringing the United States and Latin America closer together. Ground recently was broken for the construction of a $500,00 sports and industrial stadium, which will seat $500 persons and will have sports events and industrial displays of American goods. The arena will have every and all kinds of sport ing events including polo, ja-alai, fencing and basketball, which at present is the reigning sport in Puerto Rico and is played all year round.
 Another Mandell Story
 There's funny story going the rounds about Lou Mandell, the per- ( ''1ial rookie. who haunts baseball's training camps with the assertion that he can play every position be- sides pitching a "darned good game of ball." One manager decided to call his bluff and told Lou to go to the mound and pitch few to him. Mandell wound up and fired the ball at the pilot who promptly belted it out of the park. Unabashed, Lou charged in and roared, "Wot's idea beltin' my warmap pitchl"

 Jack Branran signed a contract to play professional football re- gently and was the first Michigan football player to enter the play for pay" circuit in five years. All America center Chuck Bernard, who signed to play with Detroit Lions in 1883 was the last.
 Yankees Future Studied
 Some experts in baseball's inner circle figure that the death of Col. Jake Ruppert may signal the end of the New York Yankee regime. Look what divided ownership did to the Brooklyn Dodgflers, they point out.
 Pittsburgh is to renew football re- lations with Minnesota in 1941. They may be more successful this time since the resignation of Dr. Jock Sutherland-fcr Minnesota.
