St Naval Alr Station Admiral William 4" Moffett, it was learned yesterday, has extensive plans in his mind for the future re- garding the station. Lack of funds alone prevents him from getting and making the naval air station the greatest, biggest and most important in the United States. The admiral is of the opinion that the site in Ana- costia is an ideal one and there is plenty of room for expansion and de- velopment. He also belfeves that in- | asmuch as the station now is the, offi- al testing place for all planes that is aecronautics that the A hould be given ev. and facility in this important In close proximity to his office, | the station has been brought right up | to his. back door by the demonstra- tion a week ago by Lleut. Dayid Rit- - | tenhouse in la & on the Lincoln Memorial pool. The admiral, it is understood, is to renew efforts for more funds for naval aviation in order to develop the station here. The station is not be overlooked b the thousands of Shriners who are ue here in June and preparations are under way toward fixing it up for the thorough inspection of those v tors interested in aviation. Plans also are being considered for acquir- ing several civilian planes in which to give “hops” to the visitors. e | depot tage work, An interesting experiment in radio is to be undertaken this Week by Gunner Reuschel and Chiet Demscoth, ~wtho will pilot | ying boat No. 3874 to a place | off the coast of North Carolina and te: a Loathe cable su The el and -L fly cable by means of is radio in the plane, the pilots can | | fly directly over it, although it will | not be ble to them.

Rittenhouse and Chief Petty Officer Morris Thursday successfully experimented with an HO (Huff-De- land) double pontoon observation plane in_altitude and climb. They reached 13,000 feet in forty-two min- utes. Previous to this test the pon toons had been substituted for land- ing wheels and they climbed to 14,500 feet in fifty-six minutes. The HO is a primary training plane and was not built” for extraordinary altitude work, hence the results achieved by the two flyers are very satisfactory. On the same day, Lieut. George ving_a TS land plane with a 220 horsepower motor, climbed to an altitude of 16,200 feet in forty-five minutes. He would have gone higher, he stated on landing, but the extreme cold made it impos- sible. z Lieut, Pond, with Chief Petty Om- cer Peterson, motion picture camera- man at the station, flew the Martin observation monoplane Wednesday to Mount Vernon and return for the purpose of making motion pletures of the shore line between these {wo points for the Department of Com- merce and Labor.

St. Clair Streett, operations and model alrway control officer, received a telephone message from Aberdeen, Md., that Private Pertam had been Injured and was being sent to the fleld in a Mar- tin bomber. It was requested that an ambulance be in readiness to transport the man to Walter Reed Hospital. Fifteen minutes later the bomber landed, and in less than one minute the man, who had a broken jaw, was on his way in the ambu- lance to the hospital, where he re- celved the proper medical attention. Lieut. Lester J. Maitland, undis- puted speed king of the air, returned to the fleld Wednesday for a brief visit while his famous: Curtiss racer 1s undergoing repairs at Dayton. He probably will return to Wright Field Tuesday and attempt a record for the three-kilometer course. Three enlisted men of the station were transported Friday to the Army Cook and Baker School at Brooklyn, N. Y., by Capt. Ocker, Capt. Streett and Lieut. H. Bogert. The pilots left at 1 and returned to the field at p.m. The need for cooks and bakers at the station became so urgent that two more men were sent to the school Saturday by airplanes piloted by Lieuts. Burgess and Ramey. Lieut. Hunter of Langley Field had a thrilling race with Sunday’s storm. He arrived at the field in the morn- ing on important business and took off into a black sky, but he opened the throttle of the DeHaviland to the maximum and landed at his Virginia station just in time to get the ship into its hangar before the storm broke over the field.
