open air.”
LAFF Again
By JACKIE PARKER
For all you interested kite and
glider fans, Laff (Last Annual
Flight Festival wants you! You
probably heard about the big
wing ding that will take place on
Wedn. April 11, 1973 at 4:00 p.m.
Over spring break, you can all
work on your kite and glider.
Heare are the rules:
KITE RULES
The kite must be supported by
air only for no less than three
minutes and must be at least six
feet in the atmosphere. The kite
must be manpowered only with
no motors orfule.
GLIDER RULES
The glider cannot be fuel
powered, have an engine or a
motor, however, propellants
such as a rubber band in con
nection with a propeller may be
used. It must be an air craft that
sescends at normal angle
without engine power, sufficient
for level flight.
Flight as defined by the judges
is sustained movement through
the air by a heavier than air,
craft. This is not the same as a
falling object.
Everybody go out and build
those kites and gliders. LAFI is
gonna be a real gas!!

to allow industries to pollute at
so much cost per pound of
