COMMERCE YEAR BOOK, 1911 ifj . 1 NB C V F 0 K I 5 yay PROPOS of the large number of gy! QQ Aviation Meets and of the recent C, advances in the art of flying, the ,' .f'1 I 3 Aero Club was organized last Feb- ruary forthe purpose of bringing the members of that organization in closer Contact with aerocraft in its latest development. The response to the iirst call for members was evidence of the fact that the Club would be permanent 3 for fully one hundred applicants were present, but only forty could be picked, because with too large a membership the work of the Club could not be carried on very well. Under the careful direction of Mr. R. G. Bennett, every member of the Club completed, before the close of the term, one or more miniature models of the latest machines. By joining the International High School Aeronautical Federation the Aero Club had the use of an armory after school hours for practice flights with their machines Q and President Lehman, one of the most progressive members of the Club, succeeded in flying his model one hundred and ten feet. Several other members were experienced as pattern makers, and with their aid the rest of the members had little trouble in constructing their models. As a result of their labor, an exhibit of over thirty models was held in the Drawing Room and many students were there to examine the machines. Throughout the term, the Club was fortunate enough to listen to lectures given by authorities on the subject of aerocraft, and these lectures proved both instructive and entertaining. May the Club meet with the greatest of luck, and keep in constant touch with the advances in aerocraft, and succeed, as that art has, in recruiting many enthusiasts to its ranks.
