How Hzgh 1s the S/ey7 we’ll Know This Summer | | * * * Four Expeditions Will Attempt Flights Into Mysterious Stratosphere This Year. U. 8. Fair, - N PRoF AUGUSTE PrccARD Pror. Max Cosyns At hm, the answer to the musical query “How High Is the Sky?” seems about to be answered, for no le: than four expedmnm are scheduled to go aloft this Summer to find out. The goal of the expeditions is the little-known region, the stratosphere, which already has been penetrated on two occasions by Professor Auguste Piccard, Belgian scientist. But the profeuor thinks he can do better on a third attempt, so he plans . The second stratosphere explorer is Professor Max Cosyns, former assistant to Piccard, who i arcomp-med the latter on the flight at Zurich last year, when they gained an altitude of 10 miles. On that pccasion card and Cosyns differed as to how the research work should be conducted. The result of the argument is that Cosyns will make his own flight this year under the -mp::e- of the Belgian Scientific Re- search Department. He will take off from a little village near Brussels late in June or early in July. Not to be outdone by “capitalistic nations,” Soviet Ru: s running an expedition. A special stratosphere bal+ loon is even now being constructed at Mocow for a flight under the banner of the Soviet Air Technical Bu- reau of the Leningrad Osoaviakhim. It will probably be piloted on the _stratosphere trip by P. F. Fedo- ! teenko, one of the Soviet's most brilliant airmen. The United States, too, i the running. Lieutenant Com- | mander T. G. W.
