When Owen said that one time he had thrown the switch, disconnecting the rndio current, and took control of the plane himself when Autrey by accident overcontrolled It.

Autrey, formerly of Los Angeles, who holds three governmental patents on the invention. Autrey said he had many times before demonstrated the operation of a driverless automobile by radio control, but his tests heretofore with planes had been made in private. The experiment included driving u car by radio control, with the master key located in succession in a truck on the field and then In a flying nirplane. The engine of the automobile was started by radio control, the horns Mown, and the vehicle propelled for Houston, Texas 11,000 five-plac- e U f Made to Order St. Louis.

Carrier, president of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, in a talk to the Electrical Board of Trade of St. Louis recently. Air conditioning, largely perfected to industrial uses, and now applied to theaters, department stores, and other places where people congregate, offers the possibility of any kind of controlled atmospheric condition to the home, Carrier said.

Shortly after takiDg off he plugged in a switch which put the plane in control of Autrey, who was flying in another ship with the master key In his hand. Autrey kept the radio ship under his control for nearly fifteen minutes, banking It, dipping it, and turning It at will. Once when the two planes became separated by more than a half a mile, he lost contact for a few minutes, but quickly regained control.
