ROBOT PLANE COMING
TO TRYON FRIDAY
Those terrible robot planes that
struck England and almost won
the war for the Germans and terri
fied the Allies, are being made in
America now. One of them will be
brought to Tryon Friday at 1 p.
m„ at Harmon Field.
The plane will be in charge of
an army lieutenant and about
half a dozen enlisted men who
will come to Tryon this afternoon
to make preparations for the
event. The McElhenny Public Ad
dress system of Spartanburg will
be installed to amplify the pro
gram so the large crowd will know
what is being done. The plane will
rise and fly over the field without
anybody in it. Operators on the
ground will direct the plane by
radio and make it work in the
air as if a pilot was up there
directing it.
Coach C. M. Eargle is having
the football goal posts taken down
and the field cleared for the oc
casion. Chairman Chas. J. Lynch
of the Harmon Field Commission
and Chairman Julian B. Hester
of the War Finance Committee
are in charge of the arrangements.
The event is being staged in the
interest of the campaign for Vic
tory “E” War Bonds.
