Flying the Atlantic attempt by Harry Atwood next spring
Harry Atwood plans a Newfoundland to western Atlantic hydroplane flight in a craft twice the size of current models with a 150 hp engine. The trip would cover about 2464 miles in roughly thirty hours, start from Newfoundland’s east coast at eight PM, and rely on night navigation with no wireless gear. He seeks U S government support to station several destroyers along the route, while critics warn the venture is foolhardy given hydroplane limits and lack of safety boats.

HH Fyfe writes in the Daily Mail about how pronunciations of names shift over time. He traces changes from Pontefract to Pontefrat to Pomfret and notes similarly altered spellings in Derby, Pall Mall, and numerous Irish, French, and American names.

Constables for Signal Boxes on British Railways
The London, Brighton and South Coast Railway, after celebrating its long history, plans to station a police constable at signal boxes to ensure passenger safety. The Government Inspector of Railways urged directors to assign a well tested constable for obedience, steadiness, promptness, and presence of mind, emphasizing the liability on staff for safety.
