World famous aviator Col. Clarence D. Chamberlin appears in Warren for a 11:30 exhibition flight in the Sperry Messenger. He tours 100 cities after flying NY to Germany last year and will land on the river flats at the foot of Eddy Street for acrobatic flying over the city.
Chamberlin, noted pilot, is identified as the second to fly the Atlantic solo and as the first to carry a passenger on a trans Atlantic flight. He holds long distance flight records and led efforts to promote commercial aviation in the United States. Tickets for his Library Theatre address go on sale for Wednesday night.
Three moving pictures at the Students Matinee at 4 PM and at the Library Theatre at 8 15 PM show highlights of Chamberlin’s career. The reels include the start of his nonstop flight to Germany and scenes after arrival, plus a dramatic one wheel landing that saved two schoolgirl passengers after takeoff gear failed.
The program lists events for Chamberlin including a 11:30 a.m. flight over Warren and a 12:00 landing there followed by a 12:15 p.m. joint meeting address at the Y.M.C.A. A 4 p.m. appearance at the Library Theatre for a student matinee is noted, with an 6 p.m. dinner as guest of the American Legion Cornplaiter post and an 8:15 p.m. address at an unspecified meeting.
Warren hosts a major aviation event starting at 11 30 A M the day after tomorrow with many good seats still available for the evening meeting. Benefit Cornplanter Post American Legion.
