SUNDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 20, 1929. PART VI. ST A WINTER SPORTS Wheels Missing on Plane BALLOON CREATES QUIET ZONE MR PASSENGER TRAVEL DEBUT MADE ON COAST BY 'AIRWHEELS' I BRINGS MANY PROBLEMS Signal Warns Airplanes to Keep Away 1 1 what airplane rates eventually may be. There are too many shifting factors such as the size and cost of planes, the cost of operation, the demand for plane passenger space, the cost of operating terminals, and the like.

With Tegard to the detail problems of passenger hauling, whether to carry children at half or full I I I ill (' fvV-rV "i BY FRANK J. CARMODY Getting into the passenger-carry Ins business on a larger if still not a large scale, air-line operators are discovering its complexities. Details they are for the most part, but details that must be solved quickly, operators recognize, because the air traveler like all others does not want to be bothered with details. Rates are the big question con' rroniing au lines. But, there are lesser problems such as whether children shall ride at half or full fare; the most effective method of weighing, checking, handling, and otherwise disposing of luggage; re bates on unused tickets: transpor tation of the passenger to and from the air terminal; what constitutes a "party;" the transfer of passen gers between lines; and a host of similar issues which railroads, steamship lines and bus companies cave naa to solve.

A check-up among plane opera tors and experienced aerial travel ers does not indicate that these problems have not been totally solved, but rather that they have not Deen solved uniformly. The con dition is not interfering with air travel volume at the moment, in the opinion of operators. Those who are traveling by plane are so interested in the main thing riding through the air that the details at present are not particularly noticed. Once the novelty has worn off that situation will change, all operators agree, -mat is wny they are trying to solve the problem before the nov elty la gone. As previously mentioned, rates are the most knotty problem.

That there la a considerable difference of opinion upon what they shall be based is evident in the variation be tween specific lines. One may charge 7 cents a mile, another 10 cents. still another 15. The former may believe that by establishing low rates he can attract a volume of business and make a profit by quantity passenger carrying. The third may have the viewpoint, entirely Justified by experience, that the only sound basis of rate-fixing is actual operating cost.

unbiased and authoritative ob servers of the current state of af fairs with regard to rates see one especially wholesome sign in the sit uation. That is the willingness of the average airplane operator to discuss the rate situation to open session. Few, seemingly, regardless of what their Individual idea of rate fixing may be, cherish it as the last word on the subject. Many frankly admit that they have no Idea of 4 Huge doughnut-like tires applied on this plane. Pressure of directly to the hub eliminate wheels but twenty pounds is carried.

EL PASO TERMINAL OPEN Aenai wuiet mta at otuaios The balloon warns airplane to keep away while sound pictures are being filmed at the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios. Under this signal Nick Grinda is directing a scene in "The Bishop Murder Case." I are ana me me tiuci ueeu is believed to be a uniform policy. As to methods of transporting passengers from the central part of the city to the air terminal, handling baggage, fixing the amount of baggage that may be carried free and others of like nature, the need is thovht to be for a standardized practice. In this connection it is pointed out that the technique of traveling on one railroad is much the same as riding on another. Once familiar with it in one case, the! Tider is familiar with it in all.

That is, he buys a ticket, is informed when the train leaves, is given accommodations for eating and sleeping and his luggage is properly cared for. In short, travel by rail is easy and convenient. The practice of one road is the practice of all others. "That practice, in the main, is the one which is the best possible. The larger ah operators recognize that the same degree of uniform convenience must be offered by aerial lines.

At the present moment, aviation has a remarkably appealing future to offer its patrons; one that seldom fails to win the air traveler. That is the personal touch between those served and those serving. Furthermore, it offers a comraderie that is unparalleled in the case of any transportation medium, even the ocean liner, in the opinion of many. Standardization, it is maintained, must not result in the sacrifice of this characteristic. It is one of the things that the operators, almost to a man, desire to retain.

They count upon it as one of the most important of the secondary arguments for travel by air. But none can say Just what effect upon the social aspect of air travel will follow its increasing popularity with the whole operation placed on a bigger scale; that is, they are not certain that the personal touch is the product of mere relative small-ness or an innate aspect of air travel. With reference to passenger carrying, one operator sums up the situation: "We've got a lot to learn, but we're learning fast."

Huge Rubber Doughnuts' Mounted Directly on Hubs of Plane The first airplane "an-wheels1 have arrived in Los Angeles! i Resembling huge rubber dough-, nuts, alrwheels are mounted direct' ly on the hubs and they carry only from five to twenty pounds of air. The name airwheel is misleading however, since there Is no wheeL The first set was brought here by Larry Cooper on a trim little Great Lakes, ship specially designed for the Texas Company. The alrwheels were manufactured at the Ohio plant of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company and were mounted on the Texas Company's plane at the Cleveland factory of the Great Lakes Aircraft Company.

Cooper, the pilot, attended the National Air Races at Cleveland and then waited for the new plane to be completed and flew it to the Pacific Coast. Goodyear officials describe alr-i plane alrwheels as tough, rolling rubber pillows that make possible a take-off without hopping and a land- nig on son neios, sana, swamp, land or 6now. Landing with one or both' alrwheels deflated shows no serious loss of radial distance, it Is said, and to drag a wing in a ground loop is almost impossible. It also is pointed out that the alrwheels reduce head resistance and weigh less than equipment they replace. The Texas Company plane, which' has been named the Texaco No.

6, is equipped with an American Cirrus Mark 3 motor of 160 horsepower, the ship having a cruising speed of ninety-five miles an hour. It is a single seater and will be used for sponsoring aeronautics on the Pa- cific Coast. The pilot, Larry Cooper, is the Coast representative of the aviation division of the Texas Company. Clover Field will be the plane's home port. i In being the first to bring air-'s wheels to the Pacific Coast, the initiative taken by the Texas Com- pany in sponsoring aeronautics is recalled.

Capt. Frank Hawks In' his record transcontinental, nonstop flights demonstrated the new motor cowling equipment on his Texaco No. 5 plane. WATER SPEED KING TAKES TO FLYING NEW YORK, Oct. 19.

(Exclusive) I Gar Wood of Detroit, wortl king of speed on water, has turned to the air for new thrills. For ten years his reign as international speed-boat champion has been undisputed. Miss Betty Carstairs, British could do nothing asainst his Miss' Americas in the Harms worth International trophy races at Detroit ln! September. Now Gar Wood has purchased a Fokker amphibian plane, the bet-; ter to enjoy the thrills of speed in the air. The speed-boat king did not; entirely forsake the medium which' brought him world renown in his new speed craft.

His new amphibian plane, delivered to him at the Fokker factory at Hasbrouck Heights, N. is equally at home' on the water, on land and in the air.

(Exclusive) A falling off in the production of automobiles may be quite noticeable in the Detroit district, but the airplane industry is stepping up production, the result of immediate demands for the various models now being built in the Detroit plants. Ford's airplane unit is on capacity produotion and more expansions are in progress for even greater output of the well-known trimotor types.

trolt Aircraft corporation call for delivery of twelve planes per month at both the Ryan and Lockheed plants, according to a statement by President E. S. Evans. No further decline in output is anticipated througout the winter months. The Ail-American Aircraft Show will be staged in Detroit next April at the Detroit City Airport and already 85 per cent of the parking space has been reserved in the new hangars and exposition buildings.

DELAYS EXPERIENCED Short delays will be experienced at Irvine on the San Diego coast road, due to the construction of an overhead crossing, states a report received by the touring bureau of the Automobile Club of Southern California. PROGRAM READY Greof Enthusiasm Aroused Concerning Events Ice-Skating Contests Will Start Next Month Sierras Worthy Rival of Switzerland YOSEMITE, Oct. 19. (Exclusive) here for the second season as winter sports director lor National Park. E.

Des Eaillets, internationally known in cold weather sports, predicts the greatest enthusiasm throughout California this winter lor snow and ice sports. The success of the Yosemite winter program last season did much to arouse enthusiasm, according to Des Bailiets. Meetings have been held during the summer by the State Chamber of Commerce to tid communities in the proper development of their winter resources. In company with William May Garland, president of the California 1932 Olympia Association, Des Bail-lets attended the International meeting of the Olympic winter sports committee in Lausanne, Switzerland, last spring in an effort to bring the winter Olympic games to California. They were unsuccessful.

according to Des Bailiets, primarily because the world-wide committee thought California only a land of perpetual sunshine instead of one of the greatest potential winter sport fields of the world. The High Sierra region of California in his opinion is a worthy rival of the famed Swiss Alps for accessibility, accommodations, and ideal snow and ice conditions for winter snorts. Des Bailiets plans to bring some new and extremely attractive out' door winter sport events to Yosem ite this year that have never been Introduced on the Pacific Coast before. The first of these new sports will be inaugurated early in November with the opening of the winter sport season in an elaborate outdoor ice-skating program that will last from November through February. Henderson Gets Credit for Air Mail Progress Col.

Paul Henderson, executive rice-president of the Transcontinental Air Transport, which Is maintaining a 46 1-2 hour alr-rall schedule between Los Angeles and New York, has frequently been called the "father of air mail." During Col. Henderson's term as second assistant Postmaster-General, from 1922 to 1925, air-mail operations began to assume the scope of a real postal agency. A daylight air-mail service had been in effect since 1918 with mail carried on planes in daylight and transferred to trains at night. This arrangement was not satisfactory to Col. Henderson, who insisted upon day-and-night service, with the ultimate result that a twenty-four-hour schedule was established after many successful experiments and surveys.

Col. Henderson was one of the first active members of the executive committee of the T.A.T. air line which was organized In May, 1928, to carry transcontinental passengers in conjunction with the Pennsylvania and Santa Fe railroads. Many Enjoying Saddle Sport VAN NUYS, Oct. 19.

(Exclusive) Ban Fernando Valley is fast becoming the playgrounds for those who enjoy horseback riding. Riding in the moonlight is one of the new features of members of El Vaquero Saddle Club, which supports a clubhouse and riding stables on Van Nuys Boulevard south of the Van Nuys townsite. A number of the younger set from Hollywood and Beverly Hills recently have Joined the club and they spend several rights and afternoons a week riding over the quiet roads of the valley. One of the moonlight riding groups during the week comprised Misses Jean Stevens, Maxine Cant-vay, Katrina Bradley, Helyn Williams and Alice Felix and Art East, Ray Kress, Joe Gardner, Tom Rad-rr. Abe Post, Harold Schaer, Melvin Kleinhall, John Bradley, Harris Poseby, Carl Russell, George Hickman and Randolph Cook.

CHANGE MADE EASY Anything that makes tire-changing easier should appeal to the average motorist. Applying a few drops of light oil to the lugs when lubricating the car will make their removal easy. NOW IS THE TIME TO LEARN TO FLY AT THE -MOST COMPLETELY EQUIPPED FLYING SCHOOL IN LOS ANGELES. SEND FOR PROSPECTUS. ttYINS AND GROUND COURSES r-PPOVED AND RATED JUIY 15, As ORANGE-RED, pear- shaped balloon, flying over Culver City, marics me nrsi; flying signal, evolved through conferences between the Motion-Picture Producers' Association, Department of Commerce, and California Air Pilots' Association, to establish "noiseless zones" in the air where talking pictures are made.

The balloon, sent into the air by the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, is the first of several to mark other studios in the near future. It sig nals airplanes to give it a berth or half a mile, in order that engine noises may not ruin filming of talk ing scenes. The new balloon, as designed In the conference of producers and aviators, is a pear-shaped "kite-balloon" with stabilizer, which re mains stationary rather than bobbing as the ordinary sphere balloon does. It is twenty-eight feet long, seventeen feet In diameter, and contains 4500 cubic feet of gas. The big balloon, capable of carrying 145 pounds aloft, is held by a mooring rope on which pennants thirty-six inches long are strung at intervals of fifty feet, and hangs between five and six hundred feet in the air.

For night work it carries a 1000-watt orange-red light on its top and two 500-watt lights on lis cable as a "quiet zone" warning. Aviators are warned to clear tnese signals by 2500 feet, and infractions are covered by Ordinance 300 of Culver City, and by the rules of the Department of Commerce. VIKING FLYING BOAT NOW BEING BUILT NEW HAVEN, Oct. 19. (Exclu sive) One of tha newest planes in America being built for water landings, is the Viking, a flying boat, now being manufactured in wew Haven.

It promises to sweeo into popular favor because of its moderate price and wonderful record abroad. The Viking is a new plane, so far as this country is concerned. but is not new to Europe. The New Haven concern, known as the Viking Flying Boat Company, will build at the start, two models. The first a four-passenger flying boat, powered with a 225-horsepower Wright engine will be companioned by a four-passenger amphibian, also powered with a Wright engine.

The Viking, while designed In every detail along the lines laid down by Louis Schreck, will be an American plane in every sense of the word an advantage which aviators will be quick to appreciate because of the ready accessibility of parts. The new Standard Airlines terminal, representing an Investment of-about $50,000, was formally dedicated to the progress of aviation when more than 5000 persons from El Paso and vicinity visited the field northeast of El Paso, listened to oratory from city, county and Standard Airlines officials, and thrilled at the races and aerobatlc program. Mayor R. K. Thomason, speaking in behalf of the people of El Paso, accepted the airport with a short address in which he declared that the formal opening of this great plant meant a long stride in the development of air transportation in El Paso.

Burrell Smith, salesmanager for the Aero Corporation of California and entry in the fifty-mile free-for-all race, swooped down across the finish line at a high rate of speed to win the most exciting event of the dedication program. As winner of first prize, Smith was presented with a handsome sil ver trophy by Mrs. Jack Frye. Dudley Steele won second place and A. E.

Cameron, also of Los Angeles won third. Mayor Thomason and members of the El Paso Chamber of Commerce were loud iiy-their praise of the new Standard terminal, and officials of the Standard Airlines who had brought this aeronautical development to El Paso. The official dedication program started at 2 p.m. and was opened with the band playing "America," Mayor Thomason was the first speaker on the program. Following Mayor Thomason's speech, the band played the "Star Spangled Banner," while Mayor Thomason and Jack Frye raised the American flag and the Standard Airlines flag on the pole in front of the administration building.

Among the notables who attended the dedication were: C. J. Symmonds, commanding officer at Fort Bliss, and Gen. Francisco Del Arco of the Juarez Garrison. Mayor Arturo Flores of Juarez, attended the dedication and exchanged a few words of international relationship.

A special program of aerobatics was put on by Pilots Burrell Smith and Lee Flanagln. The new field Is located six miles northeast of El Paso on the El Paso-Carlsbad route and occupies an area of 640 acres. It is a four-runway field. The runways have been leveled and graded so as to be able to accommodate the largest of aircraft. A large steel hangar and shop with concrete floors have been completed and are equipped so as to be able to offer the best of motor and plane repairing and overhauling facilities.

The shops are now offering twenty four-hour service and a night crew has been added to the staff of attendants. A Spanish stucco administration building and air terminal depot similar to the one used by the Standard Airline at Los Angeles has been erected and a lawn is now being planted around the building and In the court facing the field. An oil and fuel building of fireproof construction, as are all the other buildings on the field, has also been built in line with the hangar shop, and depot.

Mr. Werner adds a variation here as follows: JUNKERS TO CONSTRUCT HUGE PLANE German Factory Planning Forty-Ton A I l-Metal Aircraft WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.

Construction of a forty-ton all-metal "flying wing" is planned by the Junkers airplane factory at Dessau, Germany, reports K. S. Pat-ton, counsel at Leipzig. The huge plane, in which the fuselage would be eliminated, would house engines, passengers and cargo within the wing, reducing air resistance to a minimum and making possible the repair of engines while in flight. The wing would be of great thickness, Junkers engineers contemplating a cabin of more than six feet from floor to celling, which would provide sufficient room for placing of engines, storing of cargo and seating passengers in comfort.

Junkers engineers say their plans provide excellent visibility for the pilot, but say passengers would be at a disadvantage in this respect. This factor, however, is considered unimportant inasmuch as the plane would be used primarily for longdistance night flying. The huge plane is but one of the Innovations planned by the Junkers company after a steady advance in airplane building over a period of twenty years, Patton reports. In an effort to popularize flying and extend the market for airplanes, the company is said to be building a small all-metal two-seater plane powered with a fifteen-horsepower engine and equipped with dual controls.

"The future of aviation rests on the ground," declared Waterman.

Air travel has reached a degres of efficiency and service making it highly practical for commercial, business and pleasure purposes, and is deserving of increased support not only from the general public but particularly from larger business Interests. Thus Bryon L. Graves, President of the Bach Aircraft Company, pictured commercial aviation at an open-air aviation breakfast meeting given by the Lost Angels in the hills of Sherman Oaks in the San Fernando Valley, Friday.

Mr. Graves illustrated his point by a description of the speed and comfort with which he had recently completed an air tour throughout the East, and predicted that the time was not far distant when air travel would be used extensively by business men whose time was valuable. "Although airplanes wm never fill the air as motor cars congest our highways, there is a definite place in the commercial business world for aircraft transportation," Mr. Graves said. Waldo D.
