War Pilots Still Flying
Only Two Lost During Past Twenty Years By Original 'Circus'
Did You Know--pile of old clippings to recall the old days.
And despite the daring with which the fliers operated on their "cries," they kept their ranks intact until recently. First to go was Holman, his pline cracked up in an air race at Omaha.
By Harman W. Nicols
United Press Staff Correspondent
Minneapolis, Jan 25 - (UP) Back
from the "dog fight" of France,
organized a "flying circus" in Minneapolis.
The pilots, all good fliers, matched their junky planes with hailing wire and hopped from town to town, thrilling crowds with death-defying stunts at county fairs and carnivals. Out of the outfit of young dare-devils came notable names—Charles "Speed" Holman, Walter Bullock, Dick Grace, Clarence and Elmer Hincar, and Nick Mamer.

First time in Lawrence!
And then...only a short time ago—Nick Manner crashed in his North-west airlines luxury liner near Bozezmun, Mont. The pilot was killed as were nine others with him. Others Still Flying
SUNDAY!
But the rest of the bunch still is going. Grace still is in the stunt flying business, cracking up planes and staging aerial battles for the cameras in Hollywood. Bullock is a pilot for Northwest Airlines. Elmer Hinek is an instructor at Wold Chamberlain field in Minneapolis, and Clarence Hinek is still with a flying circus.

"No Man of Her Own"
"We organized," he said, pointing to an age-yellowed newspaper item, "under the name of the 'Federated Fliers.' It was good business in those days. We sold flights over Mineapolis at $25 at first and hopped all over the Northwest putting on shows."
Dick Grace, he recalled, was the rascal of the outfit. He tried too many sill stunts and was always cracking up ships. Finally, his colleagues told him he should go to work and do stunting for the movies.
Hung Flag on Chimney
Nick Mamer was the steadiest pilot in the company. His most famous stunt, however, developed through the class rush at the University of Minnesota. The engineers wanted to hang a flag on the high chimney on the farm campus. Balked by ordinary methods, they hit upon the idea of hiring a stunt flier for the job.
Mamler flew the ship, with Elmer Hinck hanging head-down by his knees on the undercarriage. The flag was sewed on a tennis net. The idea was to fly over the chimney and drop the net over it.
the execution was difficult for every time Mamer would fly over the chimney, a puff of hot air would send his light craft zooming.
Finally, Mamer became desperate. He aimed the ship directly at the top of the chimney. The trickORKed his machine. Hick struck the rood and rod, and iron-jawed from his perch. He still carried the scar on his leg.
Remembers 'Young Lindy'
Hinck recalled that Col. Charles Lindbergh used to "hang around" the airport in those days. (Lindbergh is from Little Falls, MN). Like the rest of the boys, he used to take up passengers on sight-see- trips and often flew his father above.
"Lindy," Hicknack, "was known in those days as a fair flier, but not good enough to compete with the boys who had been in the war."
Most interesting of the events of those days involved the late Mamer. One day residents of South Minneapolis called police and fire departments to report a plane was stuck in the air—or seemingly so. They said the plan had been flying in one place more than an hour.
It was Mamer.
"All he did." Hinck recalled. "was to set the Jenny into the wind and pull her nose up. With the underpowered motor and the big wings, the wind would just balance the forward movement. Mamer sit there for 46 minutes. He was just having fun."

THE GREAT OPEN SPACES
We are headed for the open... Open spaces where fresh air and sunshine put roses in our cheeks. Open diplomacy that substitutes frankness for secret scheming and negotiation. Open opportunities, open doors in business... And modern business in general conducted in an honest and open manner.
No force has been as powerful as advertising, in bringing American business into the open. A manufacturer who advertises, issues an open challenge to every competitor to produce better goods if he can. He invites the public to compare his article with all others. He makes definite claims for his product over his own signature. And he knows the vital importance of keeping his promises.
Advertising tells you where you can get the greatest value for your money. When you buy an advertised article, you know it is dependable. An unknown product means nothing. Advertising prohibits the worthless, and promotes the good.
Advertisements appearing in the KANSAN are the daily record of business progress, the report to you of the manufacturers and merchants who serve you. It will pay you to read them.
