Lazy Fights: Jack Amster of
Burgaw is the latest student en-
rolled for a flying course at the
field. He is logging his time
with the hopes of soloing soon.
Hope we're around when it hap
pens -. DeVaughan Cashwell is
the latest of the students to solo.
Although the news comes rath-
er tardily, it's never too late to
extend our congrats -. And then
we found some of the boys
counting the rivets on the Doug
las at the field Saturday after
noon, honest! When we left
they were tearing their hair.
No wonder Warren Pen
nington returned from Char
lotte Thursday where he has
been taking the instructors re-
fresher cours Didja know
that three airlines are seeking
stops in this city? Pennsylvania
Central, Eastern, and Canadian
Colonial Airlines each are includ-
ing Wilmington in proposed
routes. Gee. seems t h we
should at least get one of them.
... More nocturnal activity
Strictly aeronauticaD as a
moonlight landing was made
here last night by Bill Belts, who
flew down from Charlottesville,
Virginia. yesterday afternoon.
High winds and rain delayed him
a bit but he came through to
land by the light of the moon
and the light of a motorcycle.
Students, if you're interested in
securing a copy of the rules and
regulations or ground study man.
ual, you can get one from the
Aero club. Quite a few copies
were ordered for that purpose,
so a. the scant price of fifteen
cents you can't afford not to
have one of the 'BibIes" of all
pilots.

Army ships never lose their ap.
peal, as is being proved by the visit
of the Douglas bomber to the field.
Or perhaps the current interest is
due to the fact that this is the larg-
est ship to land at the field since
the visit of a Martin bomber in 1887.
Speaking of size, the thing dwarfs
the hanger, and has, by the way, a
Widespread of SO feet. What floored
us was the maze of instruments and
gadgets in the ship. It even has
equipment for blind landings. IT'S
quite a ship.
