A "fact iheet" with full Information about the Progress Dvs ex position to be hrld at the municipal airport was prepared today by Uie cnamucr 01 commerce aviation committee, sponsor or the event. Here In the text of the statement: ' Sammy Mason's "Hollywood Hawks" will be the featured attraction 1 at the Klamath Progress Days Air Shows and Exposition, sponsored by the Klamath County chamber of commerce. Mason Is a famous itunt and precision flyer himself, with elsht years of experience at the top of his profession. He has a troupe of equally proficient flyers and performers making up a well-rounded and diversified thrill show. Mason's show will be held at the Klamath municipal airport Monday afternoon, May 31, at 1 p. m. This Is a legal holiday. ; 8ammy Mason has a variety of special air- show planes, including a rebuilt Jenny of World War I vintage. This Jenny Is used In a re vival of'the old wing-walking act. so popular after the first World War. The wing walker hangs from the skids below the plane, walks along Uie wings and climaxes his performance by standing on the top wing while the plane docs two loops. At the top of the loop, while In an in verted position with his head toward the ground and Uie plane above him, this daredevil extends his arms and "makes like a bird,' accord ing to advance notices. Another performer does straight and delayed parachute jumps. Still another, after a series of breath-taking aerobaUcs, picks up a , handkerchief from the ground with his wingtlp. Some of the other acts are of a surprise variety so we can't tell about them In advance of the show. All are strictly professional and uie best obtainable In their class. Buttons admitting to the Sammy Mason show and to the other features of the Klamath Progress Days event are now on sale at the Klamath Chamber of Commerce office and at many business houses. A button costs $1.20, tax Included. Children 11 years old or younger will be admitted free when accompanied by an adult. Refreshments will be available at Uie airport. A home-talent air show will be held at 1 o'clock Sunday afternoon. May 30, under the chairmanship of Bud Arnold, who is an old hand at aerobatics, himself. A good show Is assured, due to Uie number of flyers here who were hot pilots in military service. The exposition part of the event consists of displays of new cars, trucks, tractors, implements, industrial equipment, boats and motors. sporting goods, electrical appliances and building supplies. The ex hibits will be set up in Uie huge double hangar built but never used by the navy Jusi prior to giving up the local airport. There will be some thing of interest to everyone In the exhibits.
