FLYING CLUB ACTIVITY IS TO STOP DURING WINTER

The Harvard Flying Club, at a meeting held yesterday, decided to stop flying during the weeks before Christmas vacation, and dismantle its plane, it was announced. Early in the Spring the plane will be reassembled and practice recommenced.

In the two remaining weeks of flying time the Club is planning to undertake two or possibly more cross-country flights. One will probably consist of a trip to Colonel Green's airport at Dartmouth, Massachusetts, a one hour flight each way. The other flight will in all probability be to either the Worcester or Hartford airport. While the pilots for the flight have not been announced as yet the foremost candidates are: W. N. Bump '29. T. P. Sproul '29, L. D. Parker '31, and P. H. Moon '32. This flying time, plus that of the regular operation at the Boston Airport, should enable the club to maintain its regular fall average of between 70 and 90 hours.

The Flying Club has been made the Cambridge agent for the Photographic Department of Skyways, Inc. During the fall this concern has been taking pictures of Harvard College the Yard and Soldiers Field from the air, and some excellent views have been obtained. These pictures will probably be on display at the Coop this week or next.

Candidates and members will dismantle the plane this winter and overhaul it. The wings and body will probably be stored in the hangar at the airport, and the engine brought to Cambridge and placed in the Gordon-McKay Laboratory.
