PAGE EIGHT | YOUNG PILOT IS NOT LIKELY TO FORGET DEBUT Amateur Finds Unforgettable His First Flight Thrill as Pupil Editor's Note: This is, the fifth of a series of articles in which Captain Malcolm J. Bu- chanan, writer for The Tribune and NEA Service, explains the use of the airplane and how to ” operate it. Buchanan was a pi- lot with the U. S. army air corps on the western front during the World war, and is now on the ll RY of the Ft, Worth (Tex.) Press. By CAPT. MALCOLM BUCHANAN ‘The plane is on the runway ready for the take-off. The student flyer sits in the rear cockpit. His instruments and controls are exact duplicates of those in the in-| structor’s cockpit. Any movement | of a control in one cockpit moves the corresponding control in the other. The plane gains seed and the stu- dent feels the tail lift off the ground. | Then the plane moves ever faster be- cause the drag of the tail skid has/ been eliminated. Leaving the Ground The embryo pilot’s hand rests! lightly on the stick and he feels it being pulled backward slowly. The instructor is getting ready to take off. The student sees the plane's nose lift in front of him and, glanc- ing over the side, finds that the plane is several feet off the ground | and still climbing. A He looks down again and finds| that the ground has fallen away a) hundred feet. Now the plane tilts a little to the left and the student leans to the right, noticing as he does so that the movable wing sur- faces in the wing tips are set at an angle. These tips (or ailerons) are brought into play by the pilot push- ing the stick from side to side. e plane leans a bit more and at the same time the rudder bar forces the student's right foot back, the left going forward. The instructor is at work. Then, slowly, the ship turns to the left until the controls are Drought back to neutral, putting the craft on an even course again. After three or four easy turns the instructor decides to give the stu- dent a rapid turn. He Ungclet tes ship st , gives it more rudder. Situs tine the pupil has his hands on the control stick and his feet on the rubber bar. He notices that every time the stick is moved to the right the plane leans to the right. The rudder bar and side movement of the stick work in conjunction uvon the ailerons, the motion of the stick preventing a skid. ady for a Landing When the instructor sees that his upil is beginning to feel at home he cuts the pester down to dling speed, putting the ship into a norma! gliding angle earthward. Al! the student hears is the singing, of the wind in the wires and struts. He knows that the forward speed at such times could not be surpassed, even if the motor was on. The al- timeter drops from 2000 to 1000 feet and then the instructor signals a landing and asks his pupil to follow + him through with the controls. This procedure of following ' through is gradual until the day ar- + vives when the instructor may safely turn over the machine to the pupil. The practice is kept up until the Pilot is certain that the student can consistently make good take-offs and 3. The Sclo Flight There is a big thrill coming for the aspiring flyer when he is told for the first time that the ship is his to fly; when he is told to “take ‘er off” —alone. The student has been shown all that the plane will do, both under inary and unusual circumstances, and in learning this he has followed the instructor at the duplicate con- trols. The instructor already has as- sured himself that his pupil is com- pec to get himself out of any dif- ty which he might find himself in; he knows, too, that the beginner has been making good take-offs and landings for several days. As the instructor steps out of the “Take ‘er’ off!” the is a queer little feeling of doubt and uncertainty skidding go lhci his sion! columen, but is ay jion begins to fade as he pushes the throttle forward and the: ship begins to move. He pulls back the joystick and the plane’s nose rise: till nothing un- toward occurs. The pilot makes a turn—a bank. Still nothing alarm- ing comes to pass. The Stick Responds hes the stick to one side, other. He waggles it for- ward and back. The response to the Vv ives him something of e thrill and he has a longing to try few stunts. Then—on the other better not. mething that slows up, and the ship noses @ natural glide to earth. is the controls to de- is glidi i built and rents are high. George M. Cohan’s Mother Dies at 74 New York, Aug. 27.—(AP)—Mrs. Helen Costigan Cohan, mother of George M. Cohan and herself an ac- tress for many years, died last night at her home in Monroe, N. Y. She was 74 years old. Mrs. Cohan, her husband, Jere- miah Cohan, their daughter, the late Josephine Cohan, and their son, George M., played successfully for many years as “The Four Cohans.” BUILDING HOME BIG LIFE STEP Home Ownership Has Done Much For Bismarck, Conk- lin Says (By The Building Editor) This business of building a home is one of the most important things a man does in a lifetime. F. L. Conklin, secretary of the Bis- marck Building and Loan Associa- tion, and Kenneth W. Simons, for whom the Bismarck Demonstration Home Association will build a house, agree on that Conklin speaks from the experience of a man who has helped hundreds of Bismarck people acquire homes for themselves. His association has financed a majority of the homes built in Bismarck in recent years and his experience has been wide. Simons speaks from the angle of a man with a family who is pledging a considerable portion of his income to buy a home. He is borrowing money from the Bismarck Building and Loan Association with which to build his house. Says Conklin: “Home owners have done more for Bismarck and home ownership has done more for Bis- marck people than any other one thing I can name. I am rather close to the home-building enterprises of a good many people and I know the sacrifices which many people must make in order to realize their am- bitions. That they do make these sacrifices works a change in them— and the change usually is beneficial to them as well as to the commun- ity. Carelessness is replaced by carefulness. Disinterest in their neighborhood and city is replaced by a very real interest. Home owners have their roots in the soil. They take pride in their home and usually they expect to live there indefinitely. “They pay taxes and they inter- est themselves in the way these taxes are spent. They accumulate for themselves property which not only increases their financial stability but their standing in the community. “It is no easy thing for a good many people to keep up the payments on a home and maintain it, and the training in economy which they give themselves during the home pur- chasing period reflects itself in their actions later. For scores of men who are moderately well off or better the beginning of their climb to suc- cess was the purchase or building of a home — in most cases a home heavily mortgaged.” Simons is interested in a place to call his own. He says: “It is only natural that a man should like a home of his own. Renting a home in Bismarck is no easy proposition. The city is under- If a man has any considerable sum to pay down on a home and expects to re- main here for any length of time he would do better to build. He will have a place of his own, will clim- inate the possibility of being asked to move at the convenience of some one else and it is more than possible that he will make something on the deal if he decides to sell. The cost of property is going up, not down, and as the city increases in popula- tion, houses built now will usually be close enough to the center of the city to show an appreciation in value. _ “From my standpoint I am most interested in a place to live. To get it I am willing to cut corners in my normal expenditures to swing the deal. A home of his cwn is about as big a luxury as any man can have. “It is a luxury which I am willing to work hard to obtain.” CHILD CHOKED BY YLAGPOLE ROPE Bottineau—Raymond, six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Rostv was strangled when he ran into a loop of a flagpole rope while follow- ing a group of children whe were watching an airplane The children were running around the school- house to get a better view of the plane. Raymond was behind the others, and his companions did not know that he was caught in the rope until they found him dead. = SWALLOWS BEER BOTTLE CAP __Kenmare—Dick Gober, transient, is recovering ina local hospital from the effects of having a beer bottle cap removed from his oesopha- £, Gober pulled the cap off the le with his teeth, and the “wild” beer forced the cap down his throat.
