T. Sta ples witnessed the airplane exhlblbt given by the fleet that arrived there In the forenoon on Its way from Sons store last Sunday night, pre Mather Field to the Portland Rose sumably for the purpose of securing Festival. During the stay of the a now outfit of wearing apparel, as fleet there Mr. Staple got In touch with Colonel Henry L. Watson, com- mandln? officer of the expedition, to whom he laid the claims of Ashland for an exhibit during the celebration here, with the result that this city will, In all probability have these air vlBltants hare during the three days of this celebration. j The management of the celebration ' have been negotiating -with the Ore- gon Aero Club with tba result that, en exhibit Is practically promised for J that date, but the colonel of this1 ftiel going north yesterday stated that he expects to take the matter u? with the authorities when ho reached .Portland, and thinks that without doubt these planes will come back this way in time to arrive here for July 3, 4 and 5. Ashland has an ideal site for air plane landing, according to the path finders who visited this diction couple of weeks ago, laying out a trail for the flight to the Rose Fes tival. Tliis Is just across Bear creek, In plain sight of the city, which was reported by th1? visitors to be the finest landing field in the state. "Whether or not the airplanes that passed over Ashland yesterday will return here next month or sooner is not definitely known, but it Is vir tually certain that an air circus will be one of the leading attractions at the Fourth of July celebration. . . Planes Pass City on Hortnera Trip The army planes en route to Port land from Mather Field . passed so far above Ashland yesterday morn ing that their presence' was only glimpsed In tWo sky as they went over the valley on their way to Med ford where they landed and gave an exhibit. According to the plans made at the tlmb of the visit of the officers who were here locating land ing fields for the flying circus, the cities omitted on the -flight north would be visited whien the air craft returned, so Ashland has that "pros pect for the future. Word was sent to Ashland early in the morning that the planes had left Oreneda, Calif., and would be due In a short tlmo. For upwards of a oouple of hours the Inhabitants spent most of the time gazing heavenward, and about 10 o'clock their vigil waft awarded by seeing sfcveral tiny specks appearing over the southern horl . zoo. The fire whistle then apprised the residents of the arrival of tho air flight, and the greater majority of the population turned out to gaze a toft at six motes about the size of gnats floating in the ether. The whir of tW9 engines, however, proclaimed them honest p goodness airplanes as they made their way leisurely across the Intervening stretch of the upper alley. Two had the kindness to re turn and circle a trifle closer so that the body and wings of the great ma chine could be distinctly seen with tho naked eye. On reaching Mfcdford the planes went over the 'city to the landing; field on the Jacksonville road where they went thru various maneuvers land took on a supply of gas before continuing their flight The fleet separated at Medford,' the first sec tion .storing at CorvaJlll8 and Leba non before reaching Portland,, and tho slseond visiting Roseburg, Eugene and Salem. -. The seventh plane icame along eome time after the f IfBt six of the fleet and passed ovter the. entire val ley without stopping. t. J. M. Alnutt, who has charge of the 'danc concessions for the Fourth of July celebration, left Monday night, accompanied by Claude Mor ton for Portland to .engage music for this feature.
