GERMAN SPORTS ENTER AIR RACES Balloondsts to Compete for Gor- don-Bemnett Trophy Berlin, Aug. 8. P—Three business men to whom ballooning is a week- end recreation will represent Ger- many in the Gordon-Bennett bal- ;\;en races out of Detroit Sept. 2 to To the three, Fritz Eimermacher, dealer in oils and fats, Dr. R. Hal- ben, oculist, and Hugo Kaulen, mer- chant and manufacturer, piloting a gas-bag over the countryside is what tennis and golf are to the American business man, Each s more than 40 years old — consider- ably older than the leading men in other forms of sport in Germany. Eimermacher, of Munster, West- phalia, is the most travelled of Ger- man balloonists and perhaps the most picturesque. He has gone up in his balloons more than 165 times since he began flying in 1909, at the age of 28, Invited by a friend to accompany him on a balloon trip, he saw in the sport an opportunity for develop- ing personal courage and deter- mination, cleverness and skill. He organized a balloonist's club, and showed his faith In his hobby by taking his honeymoon trip in his craft. His twentieth trip made him victor over 12 competitors. In 1912 he was the only German in the Gor- don-Bennett races, Storms do not scare him. Re- peatedly he starts off in a gale, and lands in just as difficult weather. On numerous occasions he has won first, second or third prizes. In the recent races out of Gelsenkirchen, which determined Germany's rep. resentatives at this year's Gordon- saved from the Baltic Sea. His nurse at the hospital tried to exact a promise that he would never go up again. Instead, she accompa- nied him on his first flight after recovery, which also proved i world record trip. He has 82 flights to his credit. Kaulen, 58 years old, of Barmen, i the Rhineland, has been an en- thuslastic balioonist since 1908. A {triend of his, Oscar Erbsloeh, re- turned from his participation in the Gordon-Bennett races in Amer- ica in 1907 with enthusiasm for the sport and Kaulen caught the fever. He took third prize at the {nterna- tional balloon races at Oslo in 1912 qualified for the Gordon-Bennett races out of Paris in 1913. In December, 1913, Kaulen with two passengers set a world's long distance and duration record, cover- ing 1,865 miles ir 87 hours. Though another German, Berliner, ouidis- tanced him by 65 miles a months later, Kaulen still holds the duration record. He has flown his balloon nearly 60 times. MYSTERIOUS BASEBALL Stephen Klenzaz Now in Hospital— Belleves Danger Lurks in Unsuspected Places Stephen Klenzaz, of 102 Grove street, a 17-year-old boy, may never have read insurance statistics tell- ing how people sometimes step on a cake of soap in a bathtub and are | seriously injured, but he is satisfied | that danger lurks in the most in- nocent places.

It stopped suddenly and with much violence In contact with the point of Stephen's nose. Stephen is in the hopsital. his nose has been X-rayed, and there is a strong suspicion that it is broken. Bennett cup competition, he tied with Dr. Halben for first place. In 1908, Dr. Halben, Berlin ocu- list and ophthalmologist, was in- structor at the University of Greifs- ‘wald. Prince Henry of Prussia, the former German emperor's brother, visited the institution. In the course of an automobile drive, Dr. Halben sat next to a captain in the air corps, who so enthused the ocu- | list that he began flying that same i year. Halben specializes in goal fiying. that is, in landing his balloon nsx close as possible to a designated distant goal. Me achleved a world record in 1924, when he came with- | in 400 feet of a goal lying 180 miles away from his starting point.
