The Harvard Aeronautical Society has received an offer from Mr. Claude Grahame-White, the English aviator, to fly on Soldiers Field. If the Athletic Committee gives its consent, the exhibition will probably take place after the aviation meet at Belmont Park.
At the Aero meet at Squantum, in September Mr. Grahame-White proved to be the most versatile of the aviators, taking prizes in all but two events. He won first place in the speed trial, using his Bleriot monoplane; in the getaway, with a Farman biplane, and was first in the contest for accuracy in dropping bombs on a dummy battleship. In addition to this, he took second place in the trials for altitude, duration and distance, and won the Globe prize for a flight to Boston Light and back.
