Three Youths In Public Eye At Aviation Races Chicago
“ Walter has won first place in three primary glider contests. Eldon Cessna of Wichita, Kansas, is "dean" of the "baby fliers" in age, for he is 23; but he flies the tiniest plane. The ship, in which he flew here from Wichita, is powered by a two-cylinder opposed motor. He used only 18 gallons of gasoline and one pint of oil in flying the approximately 700 miles from Wichita in 12 hours and 10 minutes. Walter Brunker, who works in a machine shop by days and does his glider practice at night, said rather regretfully today that he "wasn't much of a glider — yet." ”
