Amateur Gliders Will Assemble in Boston Saturday

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Students interested in the exalted art of aerial gliding will get a chance to meet fellow-enthusiasts next Saturday at a meeting of all Boston glider fans at the Puritan Hotel.

The party is being organized by Richard J. Comey '43, 1947 National Soaring Champion, and is an attempt to revive Harvard's pre-war Glider Club, as well as to bring together other clubs in the Boston area already in operation. Proceedings will include cocktails at 5 p.m., dinner at 6:15, and movies on gliding at 7:30.

Comey hopes to find 20 students here interested enough in gliding to form the nucleus of a new club. MIT now has an active glider club of 25 members, and owns a two-place utility glider which it uses in flights from Coonamessett Airfield at Falmouth, on Cape Cod.
