NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Because' the freight embargo made it impossible for the University Aeronautical Society to get its newly acquired seaplane up from Philadelphia before the end of May, W. V. Daugherty '20, and R. A. Griswold, Occ., Vice President and Chief Pilot of the Society, left last night for Philadelphia to fly the Aeromarine back to Marblehead. Arrangements were made with the commander of the Naval aircraft factory at Philadelphia to start work immediately on assembling the machine, so that it would be ready for its 500-mile flight to the north by Sunday morning.

Griswold and Daugherty will assist in assembling the machine and testing it today and tomorrow. The first leg of their journey Sunday will be south along the Delaware to Cape May, where they will arrive at noon. In the afternoon they will fly to Rockaway, L. I., and spend the night there. Monday they will stop at New London, Narragansett Pier, and Chatham on Cape Cod, arriving at Marblehead in the late afternoon.
