THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. AIR HEROES’ GALLERY PLANNED FOR NATION Aviation Society Considers War Memorial and Also Tribute to Two Lieutenants in War Service. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 11.—Plans for establishing a national gallery of air heroes in memory of men who perished in the Air Service in 1917- 1918 were considered at a meeting here of the board of the American Society for Promotion of Aviation. The society, originally formed in 1925 by 12 former service pilots and now boasting a membership of 40,000 persons here and abroad, also pro- poses to launch a national drive for a memorial to Lieut. Frank Luke and Lieut. Joseph Wehner of the 27th Aero Squadron, A. E. F., the “Damon and Pythias of the American Air Service.” A junior transcontinental flight, the purpose of which is to stimulate in- terest of young Americans in aviation, will be sponsored by the society the latter part of 1929. Contestants in the flight, from San Francisco to New York, will compete for a trophy of- fered by Forrest E. James, father of Richard E. James, first boy under 18 to make a transcontinental flight. Another trophy will be given by the soclety for a transcontinental race lim- ited to college students. It is hoped to establish this event as a yearly col- lege sport feature. A series of cash prizes will be offered for a transcon- tinental race open to members in civilian aero clubs affiliated with the parent body. The society also is considering a high school competition in the United States in which boy and girl students will compete for a prize for the best thesls outlining how the country best may develop its aviation resources.
