The Plattsinoutn Rotarians Held one of their pleasant evening meet ings last night at the dining room of the Hotel Riley where they had as gussts for the occasion the Rotary Anns to add to the pleasures of the event. The dinner served by the Stewart cafe was one that was delicious and muvh enjoyed by all cf the large group present. The members of the party enjoyed a fine musical offering by George leaser, violinist, and E. H. Wescott, pianist, in which these talented mu ririans gave several numbers of beauty and charm.- The program was presided over by S. S. Davis, past president, in his usual entertaining and clever man ner and who introduced as the chief feature cf the evening, II. W. Peter Jon, district traffic manager of the Tr ited Airlines and a member of he Crnaha Rotary club. The lecture .;.as ac 'oiv.panied by motion pictures r" an air trip acro.rs the continent ..nd gave the Rotarians and Rotary Anus an experience of seeing their country from the air. "Prom Coast to Coast in 20 Hours," was the title cf the picture. The pic ture gave a fine idea of the conven ience cf air travel which is develop ing rapidly. The United Airlines have 60 planes now in continuous operation making the trip from New York to San Francisco in 20 hours. One hundred young women are em ployed in the role of hostesses for these places looking after the corn torts of the travelers. The planes are outfitted wth large overstuffed lounge chairs and each plane weighs C tons when loaded. These planes travel at an average speed of three miles a minute. The trip from Omaha to Frisco is now made in 10 hours and 4 5 minutes. The schedule time be tween Omaha and Chicago is 2 hours and 50 minutes, but Mr. Peterson re marked that only recently one of their planes came through in 2 hours and 12 minutes. He spoke of the continual improvement in the con struction for efficiency of operation, citing how the wheels of the plane are drawn up under the wings by means of the power of an electric motor. rft;r the plane is in the air. It was found this cut down the wind resistance and increased the speed of the plane 20 miles an hour. He also explained how balloons are sent up and brought down every 4 hours at all the principal airports along the line cf travel. These balloons carry weather recording machinery and in dicate temperature as w ell as wind direction and velocity. It has been found, he explained, that it is pos-; sible for a plane to fly from Omaha j to Chicago, for instance, with the wind and at the same time a plane coming from Chicago to Omaha fly ing at a lower or a higher altitude might also he traveling with the wind as the air currents often blow in different directions at different altitudes. The planes are all equip ped with ladio receiving and send ing apparatus and therefore are in constant communication with the nearest airport and are kept advised concerning wind direction at the var ious altitudes. Passengers traveling from coast to coast passing through Omaha during the past years ranged in age from 3 weeks to 93 years, said Mr. Peterson, who said last week a boy of 3 came thrr.7g"n Omaha by plane traveling alone from New York to San Fran cisco.
