The plans call for an almost complete refacing of the building as well as new side walks and rurbs on the west and south side and a new flag pole on the grounds. The old brick and portions of the stone on the building will be replaced with new material so that the present heavy appearance will be eliminated. The brick will be the same as that on the new addition, completed last summer. The flag pole will be removed from the roof and a new steel flag pole placed in the northwest corner of the lot near the Fonnesbeck Knitting works, according to Postmaster Yeates. A new floor on the second story of the building has also been provided in the plans, he stated.

The plane came with slight warning. About 20 minutes previously it was reported passing Point Lobi-tabout 35 miles southwest of Oakland airport. No other reports came of it being sighted and Miss Earnart ceased broadcasting over her radio set. Just before 1:30 p. m. (2 30 p. m.

Twice before planes of similar type had come over the field during the morning only to prove to be private or commercial ships. The crowd was skeptical at first Then, as the plane circled and settled In a graceful landing the crowd broke through onto the field and surrounded it.

There was an exchange of messages to check this data and at 12:18 p. m. (1:18 p. m. Mountain time) she reported ail okay and was back on her route once more.
