McAuly, of Oakmont, Pa., took a ride in a British aeroplan Sunday. They were up tat a short time when engine trouble developed and had to come down. Later they went up again and were forced to land in a few minutes, so he gave up the ride for that day. In about two weeks he win take a longer ride in a Curtiss plane. Mr. McAuley is chief electrician Edgewater Steel Oakmont, Pa., and a son-in-law of J. E. Alter, of Rensselaer.
