With Ihe purchase of the t'nird Statin Naval Mr Station at AVingfoot field, at Akron. Ohio, the ioortvn,r Tire Rubber Company obtains possession of what Is probably the largest, privately owned aiation field in this country. Located within two miles of the ee.mpany'a factory, the now field will be used for the expansion of aeronautical activities, especially the manufacture of large airships for angpr and commercial uses. Tentative plans have been niaue by the company to establish a flying school for the traininp of airship pilots to anticipate, the need of airship lines in various sections of the country. Wingfoot field will alow sufficient facilities for the complete manufacture of dirigibles and trials after completion. It is rlanned to have a dirigible at this flld at all times for demons! ration purposes. Kstahlished by the government two years aj;o. Winsfoot field afforded fa-

ment sustained by automobile tires in j speed races when wheels are revJv-i mi at the rate of 25 times a second! when the car Is making 100 miles anj hour. Is not appreciated by the average;

racing fan: A remarkable Incident In the recent T.os Angeles race brings this point out in a striking manner. Art Klein was leading the field on the 133rd mile. Suddenly- his right rear wheel collapsed, 'fhe steel spokes being ahearrd cleaving the air at 104 miles an hour, f ff close to the rim. Rearing wildly, the car scrambled crar.ily about on th remains of the wheel, but the fully infated Goodyear cord tire, perfectly mounted, swept on down the track at terrific speed in the direction the car had beertaklng. When it Pna.liy came to a step. It was found uninjured. This is the first time that such a freak performance, demon sf ra t ing the ruggedness of tires, hia ever been witnessed curing a race.

Whateier the sna'K stories of the future. ,hy will lack details as to color and sir.e, and will not have the intriguing characteristics of those of pre prohibition days.
