FLYING SGHOOL - TUTORS PILOTS OF ALL TYPES Beal Aviation University on Pacific Coast Is Expensive. p ;-<■riw --ll'Heard Srv Alliance WASHINGTON. Sept. 3D. — A real University of the Air, which puts ou' a regular college catalog, makes you attend classes daily, and gives you a diploma when you arc graduated, has been opened at Oakland, Cal. It is the much-discussed Boeing School of Aeronautics. You can to to school there and learn how to be everything from a mechanic to a master pilot, ready for the air mail or passenger lines. A look at the schools tuition schedule shows you can’t learn to fly on a shoe-string. At the Boeinc school it will cost you $490 to set a private pilot's license: $1,450 for a limited commercial license: $4,750 for a transport license: and $5,250 for a Boeing master pilot's ccrtificaf e. In addition to this, you must live while learning. With the living accommodations which the Boeing school ha arranged, it is possible that a student, might eai. sleep and smoke during his nine months’ schooling for $750. Thus a master pilot's course would cost SO,OOO. a' least. All the Boeing courses include plenty of ground school, and flying Instruction ran not be taken without ground work. In the private license course, thirty-five hours of classroom work arc given. In the master pilot's course the ground school is 864 hours, and in the master mechanic's course it is 1.008 hours. The school is located on the Oakland municipal airport. It has a dozen classroom instructors, and is presided over by a general manager, a dean, and a director of flying. Boeing. Stearnian and Hamilton planes are used for instruction. The master pilot’s course was developed to provide air transport companies with trained and amply educated men who need but little additional seasoning to qualify them as mail and passenger pilots. This course started Sept. 16 and lasts nine months, just as any other college course. 'l7ic other courses take from two to six months.

PRE-COLUMBUS CONTACTS WITH AMERICA SEEN Pan-Pacific Relationship Due to Trading is Scientist’s Theory. By EMMA REH STEVENSON Science Service Correspondent MEXICO CITY, Sept. 20.—That America had commercial relationship with the Polynesian islands before Columbus discovered America, is the theory of Dr. Paul Rivet, anthropologist and director of the Trocadero museum in Paris, now in the National university at Mexico City as exchange professor. A study of names of certain common objects and basic agricultural products show' linguistic coincidences between Peru and Oceania. These are due, Dr. Rivet believes, not to a common tongue far in the background, but to a transmission of names, along with the products, from one continent to another. Other evidence also points to relationships between the Pacific islands and pre-historic America, such as folk legends and the finding of objects of undoubted Polynesian

Origin in America, reported at different times. It always has been considered that the Pacific ocean was impossible to cross until recent times. This belief has kept the theory of panPacific relationships from being more widely adopted by ethnologists and geographers. Dr. Rivet said. Recent studies of mankind's seagoing history have, however, convinced him the theory is not improbable.
