GEORGIA EH TEAM
MAKES PLANE If
Football Squad Given Ride
In Airplan Owned by
Pen Company
Georgia Tech's football team, the
Golden Tornado, ratsd a compli
mentary airplane ride recently,
when the Parker Pen company's
airplane, "Parker Duofold" visited
Atlanta, Ga., a short time ago.
This was one of a series of
Mights being sponsored by ths Par
Pm eonnnnv of Janesvllle,
Wis.. In various universities and
colleges about the country. ine
officials at the company believing
la commercial aviation, and wish
ing to encourage interest in flying
among college students, have ai
ranged, as part of their advertising
program, to have the company air
plane visit as many in stltutions of
higher learning as It can during iu
trips' around the country. Compli
mentary flights are given to stu
dents, usually chosen by the draw
ing of lucky numbers. At PurJue
university, of Lafayette, Ind., over
1700 etudents registered for the
chance of a free "air ride."
During the winter months, the
plane Is being operated In southern
states, and the following colleges
are Included In Its Itinerary: Geor
gia Institute of Technology, Tulane
university, Rice Institute, Univer
sity of Texas, University or Kansas,
and the University of Missouri.
The plane, christened "Parker
Duofold," by Amelia, is a 410 H. P.
Fairchlld Wasp, five-passenger Cab
in Monoplane. Tt has a speed of
140 miles per hour, and double the
horse power of the ordinary cabin
monoplane, as this provides an ad
ditional factor of safety In taking
oft In small fields or flying over
mountainous territory, where high
flying is advisable. The plane will
climb to an altitude of 20,000 feet
with a full load, and will climb the
rirst 10,000 feet In 13 minutes.
It Is equipped with every device
for safety and comfort brakes on
the wheels for quick stopping on
the ground and easy maneuvering,
heated cabin, quarter-million can
dlepowcr landing lights, and many
other technical devices recently de
veloped to aid safe flying.
The pilot, Edgar LaBarle. lias a
record of over 8,000 flying hours
a record equalled by few airmen
Fn this country .
The Parker plane, painted red
w Ith black-tipped wings to conform
to the well known Duofold pen
color scheme, always sttrarts at
tention wherever it goes, and thus
makes a very effective advertising
medium for the Parker Pen Com
pany and Its products.
