PROPELLERS ARE HEY 7O SUCGESS Through Them Dayton, Ohio., Aug. 3 (A—Back of the crowds cheering the flying heroes are the mechanics and tech- nicians who have made their ex- ploits possible. Seldom does lauda- tion come to them, but the thrill of achlevement is as keen. 3 Frank W. Caldwell belongs to that group. He is In charge of propeller United States plishments. Caldwell designed the “miscarta” propeller used extensive- ly on tri-motor Fokker planes, in- cluding the Hegenberger-Maitland flight to Hawail and the “Southern Cross” journey to Australia. Miscarta is a composition of fab- {ric and glue. It is particularly de- sirable for tri-motored planes be- cause the air stream of the central motor overlaps the side motors, }causinz a vibration. Wood and { metal cannot withstand this strain. Others see its comforts. Caldwell traces the development in the pitch propeller and its composition. ‘Today rescarch is toward a mag- nesium propeller only two-thirds as heavy as aluminum,” he said. “We also are experimenting with a prop in flight.” As set now, the pitch of propellers is correct for maximum speed, but in landing and taking off, when the too high, Caldwell explains. In 1909, when Glenn Curtis, the Wrights and other pioneer plane designers scarcely could get their planes off the ground. Caldwell | completed his work at the Massa- wrote a thesis on airplane propel- lers. Since then, he has devoted his energies to that one phrase of aviation, FIUME DEVELOPMENT COSTLY Fiume, Italy, million lire, about $631,000, will be made available for port development and improvement of the public sery- | ices, under the terms of a loan con- tracted for by the Fiume munici- pality.
