Its been pointed out to me the article is online at:
http://elibrary.unm.edu/Condor/files/issues/v067n02/p0186-p0187.pdf
including a photo of Tropicbird + glider in flight.  This is part of
an impressive archive (the interface needs work) of 100 years of the
journal Condor at http://elibrary.unm.edu/Condor/
