...Fauntleroy had been chief test and ordnance pilot of the A. E. F., later flew with Rickenbacker's famed "Hat in the Ring Squadron." Captain Edward C. Corsi had been a chasse pilot for France. Several had served with Britain's Royal Flying Corps. The Polish unit with which they were merged was commanded by Germany's Wartime chief of air forces in Turkey, Col. Ludomil Rayski, now head of Poland's air force. The few Poles in the Squadron were former Austrian and Imperial Russian pilots...
...Family Circle is a gravure-printed tabloid of 24 pages. It contains information about food, cinema, radio, fashions, cosmetics, also many illustrated jokes, fiction, advertising at $400 a page for separate units (Manhattan as one unit, Washington, Richmond, Baltimore as the others) or $700 a page for entire coverage. Such a compendium might be very sad were it not for the fact that Harry Evans writes most of the copy. It is a one-man magazine.

He is a forceful, hard-headed executive who has made automobile accessories, automatic telephones, phonograph motors and is still president of Bishop & Babcock...

...working hours Wright had developed steel-&-glass city buildings, windows covering two sides of a corner, houses made as nearly as possible of one material, the cantilever foundation principle (Tokyo's Imperial Hotel, floated on a mud base to rock with earthquakes), and the unit cement block system of construction chiefly used in California. His great reputation is that of a revolutionist, based on his long campaign against traditional architecture and architects. Once considered in Europe the greatest U. S. architect, he was conspicuously omitted last year from the staff of architects for Chicago's Century of Progress...
