VAN LEAR BLACK SCORNED AIRPLANE Relused at One Time to Look at Ship Baltimore, Md., July 27. (A—Van | Lexr Black, Baltimore publisher, was 8 long time becoming interested in aviation, but when he did he be- €ame a thorough convert. The publisher of a newspaper which boasts that it had the first trplane owned and operated exclu- ely for the use of an editorial staff in gathering news Mr. Black would neither ride in the newspa- per plane nor go to the fiying field to see it. But in March, 1927, he discovered that a journey from Lon- don to Holland would be more ex- Ppeditious and comfortable by air and decided to travel that way. Within 18 months he had flown - approxi- mately 100,000 miles, attracting world-wide attention to his long distance wanderings through the clouds. After the London-Holland flight Black decided to take a vacation. He is chairman of the board in the company which publishes the Bal- | timore Sun papers, and he had de- | voted his entire time for 13 years to these publications and to other financial and business interests, in addition Baltimore's civic affairs, He was convinced that aviation could better be brought to public attention by demonstrating its value to the individual than by the ac- tivities of professional fliers, so he took over a single motor plane of the K. L. M. Royal Dutch air serv- ice, hired by two pilots—Gerrit J. Geysendorffer and John B. Scholte —and started out. He made a round trip between London and Batavia, Java, flew from London to Naples, Madrid and Seville, Copen- hagen, Berlin, Dresden, Belgrade, | Venice and Glasgow. The first flight | over the Vesuvius crater by any but Italian government planes, and es- | tablishment of record time between | Naples and Paris were among the &ccomplishments of the publisher. For his services in furthering world aviation, Black has been dec- orated by the king of Belgium and the queen of Holland and elected an honorary member of the Inter- national League of aviators. Last May he started a flight from London which was intended to take him by way of Cairo to Cape Town, back to Cairo and across Mesopo- tamia and India to China and prob- ably on to Tokyo. After the hop trom Cairo to Khartoum, however, it was necessary to abandon this trip because the wing tips on his lasted corn flakes so delicious . . . Havored with malt s | voluntarily supplanted priation with a donation to R. B.|er there, found that prices actually to taking active part in | | ning board he piloted plane became flabby. Black re- turned to London, disappointed and harboring some decided views about African heat, but he still hopes that later in the year he will make the trip by way of Cairo to China, eliminating ,the trans-Afri- can flight. The 52-year-old was one of the Richard E. Byrd's North Pole flight. and at a reception soon after Black returned from his London-Batavia kop, the explorer said that without Black's support the Pole flight probably would not have been made. If the China tour is undertaken | again Geysendorffer and Scholte undoubtedly will be in the cockpit, as they have chauffeured the pub- | lisher on all his trips. Loan Associations flelp Texas Control Finance Austin, Texas, July 27 (A—Build- ing and loan associations of Texas are donating $5,000 a year to a state fund used for checking up on their professional honesty.

PRIN London, July 27 (UP)—Even the Prince of Wales has his troubles with the traffic policemen. The Prince was hurrying to keep an engagement in the country when his car was held up in a long line of traffic. The chauffeur got out and approached the policeman on | duty at the corner asking him to allow the FPrince's car to pass through ‘Go on!" jeered the constable, T've heard that story before." The chauffeur insisted and the policeman finally jumped on to the running board of the Prince's car and put his head in the window, “Are you the Prince?” he de- manded. “Why. ves," Royal Highness, “Oh,” replied the officer and sa- luted.
