TWO Spokane boys, Martin A. Denine and Glen Hemingway, have completed a biplane which this week was given its first successful tryout. An accident marred the initial flight, the machine going wrong after it had sailed 50 feet through the air at an average height of 15 feet.
The flight was made on the hill near Millwood, just east of the city, and Denine, who was in the machine, was slightly bruised by the fall. This is the second plane Denine has built, the first one being wrecked before he could get it to the top of the hill for a flight. A strong wind was blowing and when he was taking it up Minnehaha Hill the wind ran it above the telephone posts and let it fall. It was badly smashed.
