May 26, 1928 WINNETKA TALK Court of Honor Will Be Feature at World's Fair The Great Court of Honor to be laid out on the island which is to be built in the lake off of Burnham Park as the site of most of the Chicago World's Fair Centennial celebration will be twice as wide and half again as long as the Court of Honor at the first World's Fair. This was decided recently during a conference held by Daniel H. Burnham, secretary of the centennial; Dr. Allen D. Albert, assistant to President Rufus C. Dawes, and Edward H. Bennett, consulting architect for the Chicago Plan commission and a member of the Centennial Architectural commission. The Court of Honor will extend from Sixteenth to Twenty-third street, Mr. Bennett said, in going over the ground plan of the Fair grounds. Two ornamental bridges, from which visi- tors may obtain unobstructed views of the lagoon beneath, will lead directly to the Court. These will be in addi- tion to the regular bridges which will be built from the mainland to the island. The ornamental bridges, which will be like those along the Rialto in Venice, only on a larger scale, will be erected at Seventeenth and Twenty- second streets. A great tower, which also is to be highly ornamental, will be built on the Court. At the far end of the Court will be a moat, dividing the airport from the exposition grounds proper. Ac- cess to the airport will be by two bridges and four subways, all of which will be equipped with electrically-con- trolled gates. - The purpose of the gates is to prevent any great rush of peo- ple on 'the airfield upon the arrival of flyers and to prevent flyers and their planes being endangered by en- thusiastic crowds of the sort that swooped down upon 'Colonel Charles Lindbergh when he crossed the At- lantic. The landing field @self will be 3,000 feet in diameter, all in sod, this being the requirements of the aviation engi- neers for the mail service and the commercial companies now operating here.
