FIFTEEN ENTER
INTERNATIONAL
BALLOON RACE
NEW YORK, Sept. 10 by Associ
ated Press).—Greater gas capacity
than heretofore, and lessons of con
struction learned during the war, in
dicate that the national and inter
national balloon races scheduled to
start from Chicago in September and
October will set up new records for
distance in these events, it was said
here today by Aero club officials in
charge of the contests.
The national event, due to start
tomorrow, will see 15 contend
ers lined up, each aspiring to be one
of the three who will defend the
Gordon Bennett cup which has been
in America since being lifted from
France in 1913 by Ralph Upson, of
Akron.
Among the 15 are several who have
brought fame to the United States
through victories in the internation
al balloon classics. Upson, present
internationai title holder, entered as
soon as the race was announced and
is regarded by many experts as hav
ing an excellent chance to win.
Three bags have been entered by
the army air service, one by the navy
and another by the army balloon
school, Fort Omaha. The other 10 bal
loons have been entered by civilians.
The entry of the balloon school will
be piloted by A. Leo Stevens, who,
with Professor David Todd, of Am
herst college, won fame last spring by
an attempt to pick up radio-electric
waves from Mars through a receiving
station 30,000 feet above the earth.
The second race which is to start
October 23 will be the fourth time that
the United States lias defended the
Gordon Bennett international trophy
since its foundation in 1906.
The only other country which has
won the cup more than once is Ger
many, which will not enter in the
1920 race. The entries, 11 in all, are:
France, three; Italy, one; United
State, three; Great Britain, one and
Belgium one.
Although America is the title holder
by virtue of winning the last race,
France has an unbeaten record for
distance, made in 1912 when Maurice
Bienaime covered 1,361 miles without
touching land, beating the American
record of 1,172 miles set up in 1910 by
Alan R. Hawley.
The balloon “Belgica” of 2,000 cubic
meters capacity has been entered by
the Aero club of Belgium. It will be
piloted by Ernest Demuyter, who con
tested in the race of 1912 which was
won by France and in which H. E.
Honeywell, representing America, took
third place. Mr. Horcyw-'dl is entered
in the national race this year and will
try to qualify to defend the Gordon
Bennett cup.
