An cver- night stop was planned at Wichita, Kans., and the flyers expected to reach Chickasha, Okla., tomorrow afternoon. “The entire State of Oklahoma is going t> turn out to welcome these boys,” Hall said. “There’ll be a cele- bration there that will beat anything they got in New York or Washington.” | The flyers were told that at Belle-| fonte, Pa, in the Allegheny region | known to aviators as the graveyard,| there was no ceiling and no visibility.

He says his hopes for a refueling flight were dashed after he had col- lected checks to back him. “I got the ks,” he relates, “on a_Saturday.

When Bromley took off last Summer from Japan on & non-stop flight to America, Gatty rode with him as navi- gator and successfully charted a re- turn to land when they were forced back from about 1200 miles out on account of a broken exhaust valve, In taciturnity the pilot and the navi- | gator of the Wondrous Winnie Mae register about the same, with Gatty probably having a bit the edge.

Each man listens closely to the other, and the observer often detects nods of encouragement from the partner in reticence. Each Keeps to Own Task. Post just could not understand why the slender Australian had to hang so fondly over his books in preparation for their fame-crowned cruise. “If I! was doing that end of it, I'd of had! those figures all memorized by now,” | he_once said jokingly. Gatty smiled, leafing through the thousand-odd pages of tables, loga- rithms and charts to reply: “Fellow, you work the other end of this plane and T'll do this end.

By the Assoclated Pfess. NEW YORK, July 8.—If recont pre- dictions cf men who ought to know come true, it won't be long before men beat the birds at their own business. It was untold ages before man fol- lowed the birds int> the air and progress in the strange element was at first slow, but speed has been increasing rapidly of late and experts zr: indicaling their belief that the increase is soon to gain new impetur. Last week James Doolittle, former Schneider Cup winner, predicted that very shortly the general cruising speed of commercial planes would be increaszd to 200 miles an hour and that within a few yeirs the figure might be raised to 500. Hawks and Davison Agree. At a dinner for the world girdleis, Wiley Post and Harold Gatty, in Wash- ington Monday night, F. Trubee Davi- son, Assistant Secretary of War for Aviation, predicted that man would scon fly so fast that he would be able to keep pace with the sun around the world. And Monday, Capt. rrank Hawks, holder of the transcontinental air speed records in both directions, predicted that within a couple of years reguiar 12-hour service would be in operation between the Pacific and Atlantic. Of the two speed flyers, Hawks was <lightly more conservative than Doolittle as t) increasing speeds obtainable as the years went on, though both indicited entire agreem:nt as to the immediate futurz. Differ on Rate of Increase. Doolittle pointed out that in the last 10 years the chart of speed increase showed & continucusly climbing line with no tendency to straighten out. He saw no reason why this upward line should not continue in tne future es in the past. Hawks, however, believed that there {nevitably would be some slcwing down of the rate of increase as speed in- | creased, but he thought the increase ' would continue for all that. NEW STAR’S DIAMETER PLACED AT 125 MILES | Error of About 11,000 Miles Made | in Computation—195,000,000 Miles Away. By the Assoclated Press. KYOTO, Japan, July 8.—The diam- lmr of & new star discovered Morplay | by the Kyoty Observatory was placed today by officials of the observatory at | 125 miles and its distance from the carth at about 195,000,000 miles. Pre- | viously the star was calculated to be | 11,000 miles in diameter and 180,000,000 | miles from the carth. | Officials of the observatory said the errcr in computing the diamet:r of the | star resulted from a misplaced hiero- glyph, about the size of an exclamation mark, in a Japanese character. Discovery of the star, the observatory | said, was made when protographs were | taken endeavoring to locate an asterold | called “Dalia.” WOMAN HIT BY COASTER Visitor Is Injured by “Hit-and-| Run” Boy's Wagon. | | | | N.

Pcst, who maintained he was not an orator, said: “I'm not going to let that fellow Gatty get far ahead of me even in public speaking.” So he told of President Hoover swap- ping fish stories with Gatty; of Russian custcms, such as an upward turn of the thumb meaning o.k., and downward, vice versa. The flyers were presented bronze plaques. The only others to ever re- | ceive such prizes were Col. Lindbergh | and Rear Admiral Byrd.

Founded | on mutual respect, it ripened rapidly. Post's talk of a world flight drew en- couragement from Gatty. | Post was working at the Lockheed factory, where a plans was being shaped up for a Pacific flight by Harold Brom- | ley. Gatty had been cbtained to teach | Bromley navigation. The former had | dipped " deeply into navigation et the the same things, both love their home | firesides, when adventure in the skies | is not knocking at the door. The 28- year-old Gatty has three boys with whem he likes to romp of an evening and the 32-year-old Post has an avia- tion-thinking wife with whom he loves to fly. Both have won golden opinion from plane experts.” No less a commentator than Col. Charles Lindbergh says that Gatty, who gave Mrs. Lindbergh les- sons im nawgation, “is one of the greatest navigators in the world.” That’s how Post feels, too, about his aide of the air. And to every ecomium for Post as a pilot comes the Aus- tralian's “amen.” (Tomorrow: Wiley Post makes prepa- rations for a world flight.) SAFETY IN AIR TRAVEL IMPROVES FOURFOLD; Actuarial Society Committee Finds | Hazards for Pilots Far Ex- ceed Those of Passengers. By the Associated Press. HARTFORD, Conn., July 8—Alr- way travel is more than four times as |safe as 1t was three years ago, ac- | cording to the Committee on Aviation of the Actuarial Soclety of America. The committee’'s third annual re- port stated that during 1930 the chance of death among passengers in planes | on scheduled flights was one in 17,000. In 1929 it was one in 10,000 and in 1928 one in 4,000. The improvement is attributed to close supervision exercised over such flying by the aeronautics branch of the Department of Commerce, to ex- tension of radio beacon service and weather information, to close co-op- eration of operating companies, and to excellence of American aircraft and engines. Pilots, the report states, lead a far ! more hazardous life than passengers; the mortality rate among holders of transport licenses, the highest type issued, being 24 per thousand. When these were subdivided into groups with varying hazard no group of commer- cial pilots was found by the commit- tee in which the mortality rate was lower than 19 per thousand.
