All chess and checker players are invited to join. All communications Intended for this department should be addressed to John Dougherty, 4026 Dalton avenue, Los Angeles, Cal. AMONG THE FANS J. fi. Hanson left last Wednesday for Berkeley, to visit his mother, and expects to return to Los Angeles in two or three weeks.

On Saturday, April 4, he gave a simultaneous exhibition under the auspices of the Arroyo Seco Chess and Checker Club in the auditorium room of the Arroyo Seco Playground. It is a large room, well ventilated and an ideal place for an exhibition. There were players present from all over Southern California. At the close of the exhibition Mr. Hanson had won 42, drew 24, and lost two games.

Mr. Ankers and "Duke" Wellington each secured a win. The "Duke's" win can easily be accounted for as he previously invited Mr. Hanson to have dinner with him after the show, but I can think of no excuse for the V. Blsck Alekhine.

The miles flown in 1930 were an increase of more than 10,000,000 over 1929. Mail carried in 1930 amounted -to 3,324,255 pounds, and express was pounds, both figures representing substantial increases over the previous year. For the last half of 1930, It was found that 20,042,475 miles were flown by fifty-five transport companies operating 137 routes. These lines carried 209,148 passengers during the six -month period. 4,562,879 pounds of mall and 1,623,773 pounds of express.

On scheduled air transport lines f-r-i vt, the air the average man owes a large part of his safety to the prodigious strength of the glues used In the light but sturdy wings.

WING FAILURES FEW Wing failures in aircraft are remarkably few and becoming fewer. Of the limited number there are, the cause rarely lies in the glue used but rather in the effects of time and moisture upon the wooden members. Mort of the glue used in aircraft wings has the same base as the cheese that goes with the nation's apple pie: In other words, cas3in. It is of the same family as casein lime, the mixture of burnt chalfc ana powdered cheese which has held together some of the world's most famous pieces of historic furniture. Blood albumin glues also are used but because they require the use of heat and thus complicate the fabrication process to a greater extent they are not so commonly employed as casein.

In using casein the assembly process Is faster because after the members are cut, shaped and seasoned, putting them together is a matter largely of spreading on the glue, clamping the parts together under tremendous pressures, and allowing the glue to harden. One's admiration of the prodigious holding power of the glue Is Increased when he sees the small amount used for a given part. Instead of being brushed on thickly, It is spread very thinly with a roller, the object being to cover the entire surface evenly. 2554 operated by American companies and extending into Canada, Cen A.
