STUDY BIRD LIFE
CONTINUED from Page ID


avoid the severe damage
which often follows head-on
air collisions between birds
and high-powered planes.
Bird "strikes" will occur
this year at the rate of nine
times a week, according to c..
A. A. safety experts. By 1850
they will have increased to IL
a week. In about 25@o of these
collisions, the bird flies di-
rectly into the windshield, and
one out of every three such
smashes results in serious dam
age.
Although no fatality has
ever been attributed directly
to a bird strike in this coun-
try, an eagle cost the lives of
several passengers in an Ar
gentine air crash some weeks
ago. The Federal Bureau Of
Investigation analysed bird
feathers as a clue in an Am
erican Airlines crash near
Memphis in 1914, but the
cause of the wreck was never
definitely established.
However, enough ducks and
gulls have penetrated plane
windshields, cabin walls and
wing structures to cause Gin
creased concern" the C. A. A.
says. Higher plane cruising
speeds in the future will in
tensify the effect of fowl COL
lisions, for birds muscle
and-bone structure makes it
flying projectile and q real
aeronautical hazard.
Ducks, gulls and buzzards
are the chief victims Of mid
air collisions with planes, &C
cording to reports from COM
mercial air lines. The largest
flying hazard-th the whistling
swan = is encountered over
Minnesota. These birds weigh
up to 38 pounds. In Central
and South America, buzzards
are the chief fowl menace.
Eight per cent of some 47G
recorded bird strikes-a total
of 38 collisions-have involv-
ed entire flocks of birds. AS
many as six were struck at
once. Other feathered fowl
struck in crashes are pheas-
ants, hawks, pigeons, geese,
condors, mud hens, owls, sand
pipers, crows, larks, sparrows
and viriOs - not to mention
bats.
Two-thirds of all bird-plane
collisions occur less than 1000
feet from the earth's surface
and practically all of them at
less than 5000 feet.
The greatest number of such
tragedies happen along the At
lantic coast between Washing
ton and Boston in a north
central band from 0 h i o
through Iowa and Missouri; in
Colorado and Utah, and in the
western portions of California,
the c.. A. A. has learned.
The bird collision study has
turned up other peculiar facts.
Most collisions with flocks of
ducks occur at night, with gulls
during the day. Ducks are hit
at high speeds; gulls during
takeoffs and landings. No buzz

TOM SMELL STARS
Port City Netmen Lose
Lone Singles Match;
Boneys Hot

Fielding their finest net team
q the season, the Wilmington
Tennis club hung up their fourth
victory in their last six starts yes
terday, trouncing a strong Kins-
ton aggregation, 81, on the Rob-
srt Strange courts.
Tommy Smell, number one ten
mis- player at the Citadel during
the past season, put on the finest
performance of the afternoon,
weathering an early attack by J.
e. Berry, acknowledged one OF the
best racquet-handlers in the East
srn Carolina Tennis association,
and finally coming through to a
IS, Ga, 60 verdict.
The number M match was the
only contest taken by the Wilson
team, Simon S%itterson taking BOZ
Andrews, 81, 6-3. Andrews had
previously defeated Sitterson in a
match at Kinston, but his opponent
was bothered with asbad wrist at
that time, and it was obvious
that Andrews was not at top form
yesterday.
The Port City team swept the
other matches. Charlie Soney
went through Ray w. Smith, 6-2,
6-3, and his older brother, Leslie
Boney, defeated Earl Mobley 81,

ace Emerson beat D. Ray Smith,
81, SO, and Gene Fonveille went
past John Wells, 90, 6-3.
The three doubles matches all
went to Wilmington. Leslie Boney
and Emerson, who have the repu-
tation of being the best doubles
combination in the ECTA, took
Sitterson and Berry 60, 6-3. Char
lie Boney and Smell defeated Wells
and Mobley, 1910, 60. Getty and
Fonveille beat Ray w. Smith and
r. e. Cheek, 60, e-3.
Although the ladies didn't get
a chance to play today, they'll
be on hand to greet the visiting
Rocky Mount team next Sunday.
The tennis club has also announc-
ed that a club tennis match for

PHILADELPHIA, June 29-(P)-
The Philadelphia Athletics smash
ed out three home runs to defeat
the Boston Red Sox twice today
3 to 2 and 8 to 5.
An inside-the-park homer with
the bases loaded by first baseman
Ferris Fain highlighted a five
run fifth inning for the AS in the
second game while Pete Suder's
first circuit clout of the season
won the opener in the sixth inn
ing. Sam Chapman for the AS
and Wally Moses and Ted Will
liams, for the Sox, also homered

game. Bobby Doerr scored Sam
Mele and the Sox picked up an
other run on a walk with the
bases loaded before Bob Savage
took over.

ing warsaw just TWO MUS IN ~
win.
Lamb exercised almost perfect
control, walking only two Red Sox
batters. Only six reached base
off Lamb, and none got AZ far
as third base. Wilmington made
two errors.
The Pirates sacked away the
contest in the first inning, with
leadoff man Bob LaBlanc doubling
off the glove of first baseman
Jimmy Miner, the sox' manager
and coming home on a single to
center by Billy Benton. They.
tailed their other run in the
ninth, with Harry Bridges singing,
going to second when Hargrove
Davis walked, and scoring on Fred
Muscumeci's single to center.
AL Bird did a fine job Of hurting
for Warsaw. He gave up only
eight hits and issued three free
passes. The Red Sox committed
two errors.
Lamb was tapped for singles by
Fred Jordan in the ninth and
Jones in the third innings. Both
of these failed to stay alive on the
sacks-Jones was forced out by
DiChara, and Jordan was given
the same treatment by Lail.
Benton, Muscumeci, and Lamb
all made two hits for the Pirates.
and Benton's two-bagger was the
only extra-base hit of the game.
Tomorrow night the Pirates meet
the Robins in Red Springs, return
ing for a home game in Legion
Stadium Tuesday. Johnny Fdens
will probably take up pitching
duties for Wilmington.
