CLEARING COST SET

Bids to Be Asked Monday for Air Field. Cost, of clearing and grubbing th& land for the municipal airport has been placed at $30,000 in a contract drawn up by G. R. Harr of the airport division. The estimates will go to the board of works Monday and bids will be advertised, according to A. H. Moore, city manager. Timber will first be removed from 110 acres before the work on clearing can begin. The work will not interfere with the building or drainage program, as the timber land lies in four plots away from the central landing field. Moore stated that drainage of the field would follow the clearing. The amount, received from the sale of timber will be used to offset the cost of putting the ground into condition.

Aviation CROWD CHEERS LINDYS AS PAIR RESUME FLIGHT Anne’s Graciousness Wins Praise: Even Colonel Is More Obliging. Indianapolis today held a warm spot in its heart for the former Anne Morow, now Mrs. Charles Augustus Lindbergh, who, with her famous husband, left for St. Louis Thursday evening, after a twenty-four-hour visit. The departure was made before a crowd even larger than that which greeted the famous couple on their arrrival here Wednesday evening. Once as Colonel Lindbergh's blue and gold Curtiss Falcon biplane was being warmed up. and again as they were about to take off, the spectators broke into a spontaneous outburst of handclapping and cheers, which graciously were acknowledged by the couple. Even before she crawled, unaided, from the plane on their arrival here Wednesday, Mrs. Lindbergh won approbation of spectators by her unaffected charm and graciousness, which she retained throughout her entire visit. Mrs. Lindbergh apparently had imparted some of this graciousness to her noted husband, for Colonel Lindbergh himself was noticeably more friendly to the crowds—and particularly to reporters—than he has been on other visits here. For the first time, as far as Indianapolis is concerned, Lindbergh went so far as to call a press conference in his room, not only answering all reasonable questions of j reporters, but even volunteering in-: formation. The only reticence he j displayed was in answering.personal'

Mrs. Lindbergh spent a quiet day here Thursday, resting at the Lincoln in the morning while her husband inspected the municipal and Mars Hill airports. At noon they were luncheon guests of Governor and Mrs. Harry G. Leslie. In mid-afternoon they began preparing for their departure for St. Louis where Lindbergh will continue his inspection cf T. A.

In accordance with Lindbergh's past policy, both he and Mrs. Lindbergh refused to pose formally for ! photographs, but they made it easy for newspaper photographers to i snap them as they were entering the plane.
