Oberlin Airplane Migrates to South

Oberlin, Dec 10---- The Oberlin Aircraft biplane which has
been here for some weeks getting tuned up for use in the
training work the company expects to start shortly after
the holidays, left this week for Cocoanut Grove, Fla., where Lieutenants Henderson, Hadlich and their assis-
tant will do stunt and passenger flying until bad weather is
over here.

The outfit, under the management of T. J. Rice, has been
doing passenger flying and exhibitions in this vicinity.
Several men have already signified a desire to take train-
ing in the Aero school when it opens in the spring.

The Curtiss plane which has gone south, with another
army training plane, will form the air equipment of the pro-
ject.  Landing field and hangars are now being arranged.
