Three Erieites Try and Like Air Sensations
At least three persons took a whirl at flying yesterday afternoon with the pilots of the planes which stopped here Monday on their way to Cleveland and Chicago. Two grandsons of T. M. Nagle, from whose farm the flights were made, went up and enjoyed the sensations of looking the loop and other harmless tricks of the modern aviator.

AIRMEN TOPPLES BRICK FROM STACK
Pilot Weaver Flirts With Death Flying Low Over South Lorain
Aviator Buck Weaver who flew over Lorain Sunday had so many thrilling and narrow escapes on that day that some of them were missed by the reporter who covered the story of the spectacular flight.
When flying over Pearl-av Weaver came near to meeting disaster. He flew over the penny arcade of W. H Williams & Son at 2927 Pearl-av and knocked a brick off the chimney. The machine continued on its way, the impact not being sufficient to tilt the plane of break the wing.

They Bomb City in Interest of Plain Dealer Contest

In the same manner in which propaganda leaflets were showered over German trenches, Cleveland was bombarded at noon yesterday. when thousands of sheets of paper, with rules and conditions concerning The Plain Dealer's public criticism contest, now in progress at the Loew Stillman, Mall, and Alhambra theaters, were scattered from an army biplane soaring above the city at an altitude of 2,500 feet.
Two machines were brought to Cleveland for the purpose, but one, temporarily out of commission, could not be used. The flight was piloted by Civilian Army Flying Instructor George E. Weaver, with Ensign R. E. Waller out of the United States Naval flying corps, as passenger. Lieut C. W. Meyers of the Canadian royal flying corps, completes the trio. The machine was a Curtiss JN-4 biplane, used by the Unites States army for training and scout purposes. 
The airmen will leave Cleveland to-night for Toledo, where they will herald the opening of a similar con-test to start Sunday at Loew's Valentine in that city.
"Buck" Weaver, as he is known to his familiars, was formerly connected with the training camp at Waco, Texas. He was one of the first airmen to instruct the late Vernon Castle, when he entered the aviation service.
