STUDENTS ORGANIZE CLUB TO FOSTER AVIATION HERE

Harvard students will be able to view the University from the air if plans of the Harvard Airplane Club founded quietly a few weeks ago, are successful.

Twenty aviation enthusiasts, many of whom are already qualified pilots have decided to form a club with a view to purchasing and operating an airplane at minimum cost. The club will be limited to 50 members. It has been estimated that with economical operation made possible with thoroughly modern equipment, the customary charge of five dollars for the ordinary joyride will be reduced to about 50 cents for members, and every member will receive from four to six hours in the air during the college year.

The club aims to encourage undergraduates to take up flying as a sport or commercial aviation as a vocation and to increase interest in aeronautics.

An organization meeting will be held at 7 o'clock this evening the Sever 1, and any member of the University interested in aviation may apply for admission to the club at that time.
