Yodel Airplanes—

Careful Inspection Advised |

For Engine,

By HARRY MORRISON

The place for people who like to get thrills with no lives lost ‘is at gas model airplane contests. At the same time the youngster in the game can pick up lots of hints on what not to do iff he wants to keep his model in shape. Last year at the Indiana Gas Model Association -Irvington Airport contest, one of the boys wanted to test his airplane for proper adjustments. He let it 80, without the motor running. The wind picked it up, sent it soaring | into the air behind him, and set it down, luckily, in a perfect landing.

Not So Lucky

Another lad did the same thing and the wind threw it back into the trees behind him, smashing it. e had a big repair job. Moral: Don’t send your model to a wind without power. If you n, be sure there. aren't any obructions behind you. Another flyer sent his plane up re time with the battery too far rward ‘in the fuselage. The plane ent up all right, but when it had me ,altitude it took a nosedive. 1stead of coming out of ‘it, the odel continued straight at | the ound. It hit at about 60 miles an ho Tr, he crankshaft flew out the rear the plane and the' motor | was pthing but pieces. For some reain or other, the fuselage and wing irface were only slightly damaged. |Moral: Be sure the weight of your

accessories is properly balanced. If it’s too far forward it means a nosedive; if it's too far back it means a stall and that’s almost as bad. But as one of the boys at the association meeting remarked last night, “It’s a real thrill to see one of those crashes—except for the man that owns the airplane.” At one of the big meets last summer a model took off in a nice climb and appeared headed for a good flight. Suddenly it started to turn around on itself like a dog chasing his tail. Clip Works Loose

It was in a flat spin, just like a regulation-sized airplane. One of the clips that holds the motor in place had worked loose. The beat of the motor had thrown it off center and the propellor was biting into the leading edge of the wing. Before the plane came down one of the wings was gone. It came down in a “beatiful” crash. Moral: Be sure your motor is “ready” before you start your flight. Specifically, be sure all your adjustments are perfect. It’s almost impossible for a model to catch fire in the air, because most model airplane fires are caused by backfires.

Long Exhaust Advised

Every once in a while a model will catch fire while the motor is being started. Because the wing surfaces are made of balsa, a highly inflammable wood, and linen, they make good—and fast—tinder, Moral: Make your exhaust stacks long enough to reach outside and away from the model. Keep the plane clean and be sure it isn’t any more inflammable than necessary. ” z 2 | If all goes well in the building, Indianapolis will have a radio-con-trolled gas model airplane by the end of June. .

worked all winter on a special radio job, only to have new radio equipment available that made his model obsolete. He's already started on a ‘new model. ; The new one will be built on a Clipper chassis. It will weigh three and a half pounds with the radio installed and will have about four and a half square feet of wing area. A radio model airplane can be controlled so long as it is within sight of the operator. (He "could control it out of sight but it wouldn't do him any good because he wouldn’t know what directions to give.) The main advantage is in making the model land against the wind. Without control, models usually land with the wind and have a tendency to nose over. That's why model fliers always carry a pocketful of extra propellors.

The Indiana Gas Model Association decided at “its meeting at Cropsey ‘Auditorium last night to get out its public address system in the near fufure at Stout Field, where it have its Sunday afternoon practice sessions. The number—of fliers and spectators has been increasing with the recent good weather. Association members said they’d welcome all spectators, but have asked that they keep clear of the field. That's what the P. A. system is for. : Last Sunday Bill Kandler had a new gull-type wing made up with some good results.

WPA'S 25 PCT, SPONSOR RULE IS CONDEMNED

‘Undue Hardships’ on Some Counties is Described By Jennings.

State WPA Administrator John K. Jernings has informed Congress he opposes the “inflexibility” of the new WPA requirement that sponsors must contribute 25 per cent of the cost of projects. In a letter to Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind.) which was read before the House of Representatives, Mr. Jennings asserted the 25 per cent rule has exerted “undue hardship upon economically and financially distressed counties where the need for werk-relief is really greatest.” Rep. Ludlow supported the State Administrator's position on the regulation which has been 1n effect only since Jan. 1. The Indiana Congressman asserted that while he believes local governmental units shouid bear part of the WPA cost, impoverished communities should not be compelled to pay the. same as ‘wealthier units. 3

Urges Modification Mr. Jennings said the 25 per cent law: should be modified so that communities unable to raise the full amount of their contribution would not be deprived of WPA labor. At present, the law requires a flat 25 per cent sponsor’s contribution in the state. The contribution of some communities can be lowered, but other communities must bear additional costs to bring the average up to 25 per cent. “It is impossible to overcome the losses in low-sponsor contributions with corresponding higher contributions from other localities for the reason that sponsors in general demand-equal treatment,” the State Administrator said. “In consequence of this fact, it is a financial impossibility for certain distressed areas to maintain a sufficient number of projects for their local eligible unemployed.

Cites Jobless Handicap "“I know you are familiar with the so-called stranded population groups in our own state. I refer to the ccal and stone sections, where. because of mechanical improvements, coupled with economic upheaval within the industry, many skilled workers are not only without employment but can look forward- with no hope whatever of ever again being employed in the industry for which they have been trainec. “In these localities, the unemployment load is exceptionally high and the need for a work program is greatest. Local tax rates have actually increased to the point of being confiscatory. Tax delinquencies are correspondingly high. In some of these .counties, over onehalf the - population is now receiving some form of public assistance.”

GOVERNOR TO SPEAK AT SAFETY BANQUET

Governor M. Clifford Townsend will outline administration safety objectives at the annual state safety council banquet at the Indianapolis Athletic Club tonight. Safety awards will be made to cities and towns showing the best record during 1939. The plaques will be presented to safety council directors of Allen, Bartholomew, Wells, Crawford and Union counties and to the mayors of Evansville, South Bend, Kokomo, Anderson and Logansport. The keynote speaker at the banquet will be Paul Jones, publicity director of the National Safety Council, Chicago. He will speak on “This Job of Selling Safety.”
