T.) to-} day for a round trip flight to San Diego, Calif. The start was without incident, their monoplane skimming down the beach for half a mile before rising and heading into the west. . Brock and Schlee, Who carried 450 gallons of gasoline, hope to reach San Diego, 9 distance of 2,112 miles and return to Jacksonville beach in 24 to 30 hours. Overcast weather prevailed at the take-off and moderate headwinds and showers were predicted along the route of the flight. Three records for coast to coast trips are held by Captain Frank Hawks. These are 19 hours 10 min- utes for the east-west hop and 17 hours 38 minutes for the west to east jump and 44 hours for elapsed time, but the transcontinental route from Jacksonville beach to San Diego is about 400 miles shorter than the dis- tance between New York and Los Angeles, which was covered by Cap- tain Hawks. - The stream-lined monoplane of the famous pair is radio equipped and the fliers expected to establish commun- ications with Dallas, Fort Worth, Clovis, Albuquerque, Winslow and Los Angeles to obtain weather forecasts and to report the progress of their flight. The plane, which weighs 6,500 pounds with a full load, was expected to_average 160 to 170 miles an hour. For good luck, Schlee arranged to wear the same pair of tan and white sport shoes he wore when another monoplane, the Pride of Detroit, carried them safely across the At- lantic ocean and Europe to Tokyo in 1927. AVIATORS TESTING TWO NEW DEVICES Detroit, Mich., June 17.—(?)—Ed Schlee and Billy Brock, who took off this morning from Jacksonville, Fla., on an attempted dawn to dawn flight to San Dego, Calif., and return, not only hope to set new speed records by crossing the continent twice in 24 hours but plan the most exhaustive tests yet made of two important fly- ing accessories. These accessories are a new two- way radio set, believed to have in Proportion to its weight the longest range of any set yet developed, and the gyroscopic “artificial horizon” in- strument designed to help a pilot maintain his lateral position when fiying “blind.” The instrument con- sists of a cylinder mounted on the plane's instrument board. A small gyroscope within the cylinder, revolv- ing at from 17,000 to 20,000 revolu- tions a minute, remains upright and paraHel to-the-real»horizon through- out all the pitches and rolls of the]. airplane, A model of an airplane is attached to the fate of the instrument in front of the “artificial horizon” line drawn by the gyroscope. The model. rolls and pictures at the same angles as does the airplane itself. By observing the position of the model with rela- tion tothe gyroscope horizon, the pilot knows the relation of his plane to-the actual horizon. : Twin City Merchants | To Attend N. D.

The match play occurred while the parents were both away from the house. The mother came back in time to discover the flames starting in a bed in one of the rooms. A call was sent to the firemen, but it failed to state whether the No. 303 was north or south. The apparatus was driven to 303 North Eleventh, but there was no fire there, so firemen, with time lost, hurried to that number south of the N. P. tracks. The fire had not got a real start, though as far as it had progressed it had burned considerable bedding and damaged the walls and floor. A spray of chemical solution sufficed to ex- tinguish it. - Eight Toledo Men Still Are Missing Toledo, O., June 17.)—Discus- sion of theories as to the cause of the disappearance of eight Toledo men in @ speedboat, last seen racing in Lake Pelee island Saturday, was as icuous today as the ab- sence of any trace of the men. Twelve boats from the coast guard station combed the whole shore line of the islands between here and Pelee island on the theory that the men might be marooned. Airplanes also covered more than a hundred miles. The boat was found Sunday, floating upright. One theory was that the missing men were kidnapped or slain by rum runners or hijackers who make the islands their rendezvous.
