He Kept His Gaze Aloft
For an Aviation Empire Sialking
Editor's Note: Readers of the Man-
e By NICHOLS FIELD WILSON
A significant phase in the.career of Glenn L. Martin is
found in the fl.t that the miracle of flight for man never im-
pressed him as being improbable. He cannot recall the day
when flying kites did not absorb him; nor a time in his life
when he lacked confidence that conquest of the air was certain
to COlYle.
When Orville Wright wavered
into the air for one minute and
forty seconds in 1906 the achieve-
ment brought a thrill to young
:Martin, but not mystification. On
the contrary, he felt a calm confi-
dence that what Orville VCright
had done would soon be done by
himself .... and by thousands
of other men in years to come.
%'iue Mother
This confidence of his had
been cleverly and adroitly nur-
tm'ed by a wise and understand-
ing mother. Just recently, Mar-
tin aid:
"Wvight's plane loeed to
me like toothing but a kite with
a motor in it. Kitet were not
]J¢'w to me, and mother had
faith in her son. He could do
anything anybody else could
do, she was sure, and do it
even better."
No small part of his success
has its genesis in his mother's
faith. It was she who allowed
the very small Martin boy to
clutter up her modest home with
sticks and paper and string as
he worked at the perfecting of
his kites. By the time he was
seven he had become so profi-
cient that he could turn out
three super models a day. Later
on, it was his mother who stood
for hours, holding aloft a kero-
sene lamp, while Glenn worked
at the construction of a real
plane. This was in 1907 and 1908,
aml their workshop was a small
abandoned church in Santa Aria.
:Exhibition Flight
Without reference books or
plans they finally did produce a
contrivance which actually flew.
]n 1909 Martin "soared" at a two-
foot altitude for 200 feet, and on
:Nov. 21, 1910, he made his first
advertised exhibition flight.
Less than two years later he
flew to undying fame and the
then world's overwater record,
nhen he brought his crude push-
er plarm to a landing at Avalon,
Catalina Ishlnd. The start was
at Balboa, Calif.
GLENN L MARTIN
hundreds of acres at Baltimore,
Md•, is a far cry from the little
church in Santa Ana, where his
first plane was built. Aviation
has come of age, and times have
changed. But to Martin and his
mother, things are essentially
the same. Their philosophy may
be summed up in the simple code
of doing the best you can with
the knowledge and tools of the
moment.
Invention is the talent of
youth, as judgment is el age.

Our wife often wonders why
we like to go deer hunting• She's
not alone in this matter since
we're beginning to wonder the
same thing. The tt:ouble is we
have always been a pushover for
every guy wlm comes along that
knows where the bucks are. Now
this is plain dmnb since deer
are where you find then]. But
along comes a guy who says he
nows where the woods are full
of bucks--in fact he says he
saw 50 of 'era.
WE HAVE COMPAN
o
Furthermore this country isn't
hard to get to--and yet it isn't /
full of hunters. We fell for this
stuff and headed off for this Si-
erra paradise last Friday after-
noon. We are not alone in this
delusion . since our three-car
party consists of such solid citi-
zens as Oscar Halsebo, Henry
Loumena, Bill Johnson, his son,
Don, Larry King and Orrin
Vebb.
This party winds up some-
where near the }qevada line
about a million miles east of
Markleeville. Beautiful coun-
try-nothing but sage brush and
a few wizened up rabbits that
are barely able to exist in such
a place.
BUMPER STRETCHER
Our guide informs us that it is
necessary to go over a slight hill
to get to the camp site, and tllat
the cars might need a slight
push to make it up the grade•
.This is an understatement.
We take the jeep and try to
pull Bill Johnson's car up the
hill. This involves considerable
trouble and we finally wind up
by dragging Johnson's car across
another jeep and denting John-
son's fen(let. \\;Ve also manage to
stretch his bumper a little out of
shape.
MOUNTAIN COFFEE
But tile jeep can't make it
and Johnson is forced to aban-
don his car. "We go on over the
hill and come to our camping
