THE IXDTAXAPOLIS TIDIES
FLYING WITH Capt. Al Williams, Chief of Air Services Scripps-Howard Junior Aviator I ONCE made the remark "Within 10 years we will see millions of privately owned planes flying around the country.” That prediction was immediately seized upon and I was asked to state the basis for such a prophecy. Why? Simply because there are millions of young people today who are determined to fly as soon as they get a chance. Ask any youngster what he is going to do when he grows up . . . the chances are he will tell you he is going to be a pilot. And don't make the mistake of thinking the lads are merely equipped with enthusiasm. They have facts. They can talk wing curves, design, streamline, drag, propeller slip and so on. A man once voiced a faint objection about a submitted article written for young people and containing semi-technical aviation expressions. He was afraid they wouldn't be understood. Prior to entering this man's office I had autographed a model plane made by his office boy. "Call in your office boy,” I said. In marched the boy carrying his little ship. I asked him what type of wing curve had been named in his specifications. “Clark Y 37.” he answered. “How much dihedral?” I continued. “Zero on the bottom wing and a degree and a half on top.” “And stagger?” I asked. “Oh, 29 per cent of the mean chord.” was the reply. I thanked the boy, dismissed him, turned to his boss. “Did you know what your office boy was talking about?” These little fellows can be met on any aerodrome, any street corner, in any home. They fairly bubble over with technical information. It is amazing. Are these youngsters going to fly when they grow up? Or need I ask! # # # QUESTION: How long is a course and what is the cost to become a transport pilot? What is the salary of such a pilot? The average length of time to train at an aviation school runs about a year. The cost is near $1500. The average salary of a transport pilot is around $300 a month. SCULPTICOLOR MODEL WILL BE SHOWN HERE Famed Art Creation to Be Exhibited at Ayres. A three-dimensional sculpticolor model of Sir Luke Fildes’ famed painting, “The Doctor,” will be on exhibition at L. S. Ayres & Co. for three weeks beginning Monday. Displayed at the Century of Progress, the new form of art has aroused much comment. The sculpticolor is life size, threedimensional and of plaster composition painted over by clay. It is the work of sculptor John Pauling, and is valued at $150,000 by its owners, the Petrolagar Laboratories, Chicago, I11. In form, it is somewhat like a bas-relief.

E. Doremus, general sales adviser, Du Pont Powder Co., powder division, in commenting upon Mr. Adams’ skill, wrote: “Adams certainly knows how to instruct and how to interest people in the sport of clay target shooting.” All of the shooters whom Mr. Adams has instructed have heartily indorsed The Times-Em-Roe instruction school.
