Plans are being evolved for a three-cornered airplane race next spring, between the University, Yale and Columbia. The proposed contest will be modelled on the New York-Toronto air race held recently.

As a result of a discussion at a meeting of the Columbia Aero Club, the itinerary of the race would be approximately as follows: A University machine would leave the Stadium, fly to Roosevelt Field, Mineola, L. I. and return while a Columbia machine was covering the same course in the opposite direction. Yale's flight consists of two choices; either to fly to Mineola and back, with a handicap to make up for the shorter distance, or to take a triangular course between New Haven, Cambridge and Mineola.

If this race is held it will be unique in the annals of intercollegiate athletic history, the only event at all resembling it being the air meet at Atlantic City last June. Such an innovation would undoubtedly be popular, is the opinion of Columbia Aero Club officers, if for no other reason than that the hazards of cross-country air racing puts this sport in a separate class from all other athletic activities.

Provided negotiations for this contest are successfully concluded, other colleges will be invited to join the aerial association, which will be organized with officers and rules for flying. It is planned to have races of many kinds both for long and short distances and between two, three and more members of the association.
