The usual kite events will be about the same as during the past two years. The quarter mile dash with the use of reels will be used; also an eighth mile dash will be listed this year in which the string is to be wound in by hand.
The “Scientific American” of October 14, 1911, has an article on “How to make a Model Aeroplane that will fly 700 feet”. Look it up.
Ask at the libraries for Mr. Collin’s books on “Model Aeroplanes”. There is a second book out by this author that seems very good.
Look out for ideas in the daily newspapers and at the Dominguez meet.
Principals please post.
Respectfully,
CHAS. M. MILLER.
