Kenney of New York in betting on the success of the Macready-Kelly non-stop flight from New York to San Diego and donating his winnings—$5,000 —to the aviators. He protested also against the alleged action of Gen. M. M. Pat- rick, chief of the alr service, in sending a telegram to the aviators notifying them of Col. Kenney's donation.
