iv. Advertisements FLIGHT JA.VUARY 4TH, 1945 Oxford wins the University Boat Race by 2f lengths in record time (to date) 0/18 minutes, 29 seconds. April 18, 1911.WHEN WE WERE YOUNG Most photographs of the event show that the spectators were more interested in an aero- plane flying over the course for the first time, than in the race itself. No doubt there were many who deprecated the intrusion of the new- fangled contraption (' if it had been intended that we should fly, we would have wings'), and there could have been few who foresaw the mighty future CE.LLON CELLON LTD. , in the air, that is common understanding now. No public notice was focused on another event of 1911 — the foundation of the firm Cellon, but, amongst other matters, our eyes were fixed on the aeroplane with more than casual interest. The progress of Cellon has been parallel to the progress of aviation and we can look back on thirty odd years of effort with justifiable satisfaction. THE PERFECT FINISH KINGSTON -ON-THAMES. TELEPHONE: KINGSTON Thorp-Hambrock Co., Ltd., Montreal, Canada. Cellon Corporation Pty. Ltd., Sydney, Australia 1234 ( lines) cvs-534
