SAN FRANCISCO, Cat., Doc 1.
Plans wore launched In San Francis
co, Oakland and Berkeley today to
Bocuro for the bay cities an aviation
week similar to that planned by Los
Angeles promoters for January 10 to
20, 1910. 4
In view of tlie fact that the Los
Angeles 'enthusiasts -probably will
bring several leading European ex
ponents of aerial navigation to this
country, members of the Pacific Aero
club of this city believe that tho vis
itors may be persuaded to appear In
San Francisco at the conclusion of
their Los Angeles engagements.
Do Lamar, a French aviator, who
uses a Blerlot monoplane. Is In San
Francisco endeavoring to arrange for
an exhibition flight on Christmas
day. The Frenchman will make an
effort to cross San Francisco bay In
his aircraft If a puree of $5000 Is
offered for the successful consumma
tion of the attempt. The amount
ho asks, however, has not been as
sured him.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 1. In
spite of the Inoportunltles of those In
charge of the avlttlon week planned
for Los Angeles next January, tho
government has refused to send tho
$30,000 biplane purchased from the
Wright brothers to participate In the
meet.
According to an announcement to
day, tho Request of the Los Angeles
promoters was denied because" no
aviator In the government service Is
available to take the great machine
