—Aviation — AIR MARKINGS ON CITY ROOFS RECOMMENDED Aid to Aviator Advocated by Commerce Chamber Secretary. Importance of air markings for roofs of Indianapolis factories and business buildings to guide visiting aviators to local airports, if Indianapolis is to grow aeronautically, was urged today by Paul H. Moore. Chamber of Commerce aviation secretary. The Department of Conuneice is urging air markings on roofs of large buildings everywhere in the United States. The larger cities are more easily identified than the smaller ones, but frequently aviators unacquainted with the geography, have difficulty in locating a landing field from the air. Indianapolis is one of,the easiest cities in the country to identify because of Monument Circle, with the four angling avenues, but the city is most inadequately air-marked, Moore said. The only roofs in Indianapolis known to be air-marked are those of the Ford assembly plant, and the Bemis Bag Company, on the south side. The Department of Commerce is seeking to have air markings made uniform throughout the country, that aviators may not be confused by different markings in different parts of the country. Information on the proper method I of marking roofs, together with ad- j vice on the size of the roof and the i estimated costs of painting, may | be obtained from the Bureau of Ae- j ronautics, Department of Commerce | at Washington, or from Moore at the Chamber of Commerce. m 19 * Duchess Flying to India Bff United Press LONDON, June 13.—The airplane Princess Xenia, carrying the Duchess of Bedford on a flight to .Karachi, India; has arrived in Bushira, a dispatch to the Daily Express said today. Crack Air Bomber Here Lieut. William M. Lanagan, Brazil, Ind., regular Army flier stationed at Kelley Field, Texas, arrived at Bchoen field, Ft. Benjamin Harrison, Tuesday to visit iiis brother, J. B. Lanagan of the Lanagan Furniture Company, 113 W. Thirtietth St. Lieutenant Lanagan, who will leave Thursday in his De Haviland plane for Kelley Field, came from Langley Field, Va., where he won | a distinguished bombers’ medal in ■ Army bombing exercises. He was accorded the honor of performing the most accurate bombing ever recorded in air corps activities, according to newspaper accounts. Within a 280-foot circle, a mere speck from an altitude of 8,000 feet, he dropped the Sixteen bombs allotted him with perfect hits. The medals are issued only for perfect scores, and only seventeen ever have been awarded, it is said. The medal was presented by Trubee Davison, assistant Secretary of War. Recalls Old Plane Fear In remarking on the cautious manner in which some persons step into ah airplane for their first flight, Harold C. Brooks, Hoosier airport secretary-treasurer, recalled the superstitious fear in which an airplane was held \when aviation was new. Brooks was a civilian aviation instructor at Love Field, Texas, training army pilots during the war. Frequently the instructors would land in a farmer’s field and be invited to break the routine of army food with a chicken dinner. On one such occasion Brooks was asked to fly to a neighboring plantation where the owners never had seen a plane. He landed in a field beside an orchard, in which were a number of Negro cotton pickers’ huts. When the Negroes returned to the fields, about thirty or forty of them circled in a wide about the plane, eyes wide and mouths agape. The plantation owner called to onywrtly Negro woman: '■rSlfne on up here and see the airplane Mammy." “No suh,” the mammy replied. “But hft ain’t so ’fraid o’ de thing as ah bo o’ de devil dat rides it.” Plans Air Line to Toledo Lyell K. Lewis, Toledo business man, is planning an aerial passenger and freight line between Indianapolis and Toledo.
