DALLAS, Tex., June 18.—Discovery
that Texas cattle will eat the wings of
an airplane if the machine is left un
guarded is one of the reasons why
a general order to “stick with the
machine, no matter what happens” is
impressed upon every cadet aviator
training in Texas. The cadets are
instructed particularly never to leave
their “ships" in the field no matter
how far from the traveled road.
The fact that cows have an appe
tite for airplanes was discovered only
after one or two machines had suf
fered real loss from discriminating
Texas cattle.
The wide, supporting planes are
covered with a cellulous preparation
that makes them air tight, known in
the technique of flying as “dope,” and
“dope” makes as tasty a meal for the
cows as the bovines have discovered
for a long time. It softens under their
tongues and cattle in their eagerness
to obtain it, will chew the expensive
linen planes to pieces to extract the
last particle of “dope” flavor.
Another reason for the order is that
an airplane is a valuable piece of prop
erty with many detachable parti, of
fering an attractive invitation ^loot
ers if one were left un^rotetw# 1n
a lonely field or on a road.
Souvenir hunters. however are
much more feared than thieves. Avi
ators who have made forced landings
while on cross country flights say
it requires their utmost vigilance to
keep curious spectators from break
ing up their "ships” and carrying
them away piecemeal, so eager are
the country people for souvenirs.
An aviator landed recently in a
wheat field not far from here. The
curiosity and interest of the people
were so great that in less than an hour
the field was so covered that the
owner of the ground had to ask the
Dallas police to clear the field to pre
vent his growing crops from being
stamped into a total loss.
HED CROSS moms TO
lit SERVICE MOSES
PARIS, June 18.—Major James H.
Perkins, commissioner for Europe of
the American Red Crocs, has approved
a service badge to be worn by the
Red Cross workers after six months
or more foreign service. The badge
is a bow of dark blue ribbon one inch
long by three-eights of an inch wide,
drawn together in the center by a
white band on which there is a small
red cross. One star is used to indi
cate six months’ service; two stars
for a year.
