Pilots say that the completion of the new airport, which will be a Class A field, will be an added Inducement for more planes to land here and will also niiike the Reno airport the starting point for numerous short tours over the mountains and lakes in this vi- i i which have been widely advertised as scenic attractions for motorists and i now be viewed from the air by hundreds.

Operators of commercial planes arc now mapping out a series of air tours with Reno as the center which cover the Eastern side of the Sierra, One tour, taking aBout an hour in the uir. stiirts at the Reno field and takes thr plane over Washoe valley. Washoe Kike Carson, thence to Tnhoe near Olenbrook. skirts Lake Tahoe and the top of Mount Rose and thence- back to Reno by way of Verdi. On this trip, where an altitude of eleven thousand feet is obtained for part of the distance, a view of i large lakes including Tahoe, Dormer Washoe and Marlette, the air tourist.

Another tour, which also requires about an hour's flying, covers the Pyramid. lake country, giving a view of wide expanse of country. Other tours, requiring longer flying time, cover the district on the summit of the Sierra above Truckee where scores of small lakes can be seen from the air and Mount Lassen looms up In the cllstanse Experience gained lu airmail and in mapping the tours out of Reno has demonstrated to pilots that either the early morning or early evening hours are the best suited for touring in the rare mountain air. There are no bumps in the air in the morning and few in the evening but in the middle of the day, the pilots say, the air sometimes resembles a corduroy road because it thin from the heat that the plane seems to hop from one solid piece of air to another one, with big gaps between caused by air cur- icnts. Higher altitude can be gained in the morning and in the evening and it Is much easier to take off at these hours.

Generally in the morning and evening there is no wind to contend with, they say. The local pilots are also trying to find suitable landing fields at Lake Tahoe and at points In the mountains. There are plenty of places, they say, to land a plane in an emergency but very few places where a successful take-off can be made because of short runways. As soon as the new landing field is completed local commercial pilots and Band to Reno; Plays Tomorrow Aimee's band without Almee will be in Reno tomorrow afternoon to play tuneful and snappy camp meeting selections, also some popular airs, in a little advertising stunt to let the people knew that their leader will be back at Tahce Cedars at Tahoma tonic rrow night or Wednesday to carry IS BY HOT ME TODAY Equalling the year's record set on Tobacco Chewers Chew Heartily on One Lonely Plug There Is a story of a plug of chewing tobacco.
