Airplane Will Take Up Passengers Here

An Eaglerock open, two-passenger airplane piloted by E. W. Cernaham of Niles, Mich., arrived here yesterday at the local landing field for a few days' stopover before continuing to Miami, where Cernaham will compete in the air races to be held there Dec. 7, 8, 9.

With Cernaham is Fay Wilcox, expert parachute jumper. Wilcox will do a jump at the field Sunday and Cernaham will go through some exhibition flying stunts for the entertainment of the Brooksville public and to keep in trim for the races.
