24 L J 6. U. SENOR AIDS ' BENNETTONTOUR Former Naval Airman Goes With Josephine Ford as Of- ficial Lecturer. Charles F. Kunkel, a member of the senlor class at the Georgetown Uni- versity School of Foreign Service, is touring the country aboard the Jose- phine Ford, the Fokker monoplane which carried Comdr. Ri¢hard E. Byrd over the North Pole. Mr. Kunkel is going along as the official lecturer of the tour and also as auxiliary pilot for Bennett. His own aviation experience comes from arduous service on patrol duty on the North Sea as a naval aviator during the war. The flying student is the personal representative of the Daniel Guggenheim Foundation, W hich is financing the trip under the direction of the Department of (ommerce, the object of the tour being to interest the public in commercial aviation. Writing to Dr. Thomas H. Healy, assistant dean of the school, while en route S: from Albany, N. Y., to § cuse, flying at an aititude of 3.2 feet, Mr. Kunkel describes the Jose- phine Ford as having *‘all the con veniences of a Pullman.” “My corapanions are excellent chap: he writes. “Floyd Bennett, who pilot- ed this same plane over the North Pole, with Comdr. Byrd, is a most ge- nia] fellow and everybody likes him. He seems to be a part of the ship, an excellent pilot and all of us have the greatest confidence in him.” Has Enviable Record. The student lecturep voiced high praise of Donald B. Keyhoe, Depart- ment of Commerce representative, who is managing the tour; Bernt Bal- chan, the Norwegian navigator, and Chief Mechanic McFail for their ca- pableness. Mr. Kunkel will be graduated from Georgetown next June. He saw serv- fce on the Mexican border before the World War and qualified as a naval air pilot, lieutenant, junior grade, aft er the outbreak of the war. In Eng- Jand he was promoted in command of the Killinghome Air Station, where he had charge of patrol duty on the North Sea. He served 22 months in this capacity, and during that time he attained the enviable record of 450 hours’ flying thme without serious mishap. He entered the Georgetown School in 1923 and was appointed one of eight Georgetown students as a mem- ber of the American delegation on the Tacna-Arica Plebiscite Commission. Upon his return to Washington last month he took charge of the work of opening the new Foreign Service House on Euclid street. He is presi- dent of the Delta Phi Epsilon Fra- ternity at the school.
