LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Editor News Review
lui East Main
Ashland, Oregon
Dear Sir:
W hilst perusing your com­
m endable little rag ol last week,
I found to my shocked surprise
tn at you quoted me as a propon­
ent of the half-loop scnooi, in
winch a common housefly alight­
ing on the ceiling uses th a t m an­
euver in so alighting.
Sir, you err m ost definitely,
completely, and absolutely. That
my nam e should be associated
w ith such a theory covers my
tace w ith a hot blush of shame.
It you have no regard lor my
own feelings—think ol my dear
ola m other—or my little sons,
im agine their em barrassm ent at
having their son and father re ­
spectively, held up publicly as a
m em ber of the hall-baked clique
tnat blatantly assumes the han-
loop banner; That, sir, closely apr
preaches libel, and i ve hall a
mind to sue.
My thesis is directly opposed
to tn at ol the hall-loop. 1, sir,
am an exponent of the halt-roll
school. To a Hy alighting on tne
ceiling, the hail-roll m aneuver is
the only logical, probable, ethical,
sensible, POSSIBLE, m aneuver.
Aside from the purely mecn-
anical aspect ol the thing, which
alm ost relutes all possibility ot
the half-loop, w hat possible in­
tellectual consideration
would
the ily have in completing a dif­
ficult acrobatic teat, only to find
lie had reversed his line of llight?
A half-roll allows the fly plenty
of tim e—while in inverted flight
—to lower landing gear and com­
pute angle of inclination and con­
dition of field. The half-loop
m akes no allow ance for this.
If I had the space I could write
volum es on the ridiculous p re ­
mise of the half-loop school, con­
founding its m em bers completely.
I hold no grudge—I am perfectly
