Bench way to try to find the loc-ale of a picture. Frank Beckwith, Sr., took the picture some time ago. and then forgot where he snap-ped it. It may have been near Crater Bench, or it may have been near Trout Creek. For all he's sure of, it may have ben somewhere else, too. It shows some old lake levels, as one might suspect.

Hoskins Is probably the pilot who made an emergency landing on Sevier Lake a little over two years ago, and had to abandon his plane, which is still there. i Wingovers "ALL THE NEWS THAT'S FIT TO PRINT FROM THE DELTA AIRPORT" DICK MORRISON TWO FRANKS . . . If Frank Pace was flying in the manner of the Chinese pilot, Won Wing Low, Sunday afternoon, it was because his Cessna was car-rying him in the left seat, and Frank Rawlinson, passenger, in the right. The latter Frank's 265 lbs., makes him nearly twice the man the former Frank is. Frank Rawlinson said he enjoy-ed his flight. It was his third. He said that his first flight was very different. It was made a long time ago, at another airport. His pilot had just cleaned the engine with gasoline, and it took fire as they were taxiing to the runway. After extinguishing the fire, his pilot took him up and proceeded to do a lot of aerobatics. These two dis-concerting experiences, one after UAr, IS LO lintl 'UlclL ajJUt OBaui. It's somewhere in the 7700 square miles of Millard County, if it isn't in Juab County. The editor even disremembers what airplane he was in, but a wing strut on the photo looks like that of the Chief. We flew up and down the east side of Crater Bench, and we saw some terraces that look very much like the picture, but a further sea-rch will be necessary to find the identical ones. Reaching the east boundary of the government design ated "danger area", which run past Crater Bench, we turned back, to avoid the possibility o'C getting ! chased by a flying caucer or what- - another, lem 'ranK Kawnnson a bit skeptical about the joys of flying until he made a less upset-ting flight some time later. FLEDGLINGS ... Frank Pace put in quite an after noon flying passengers Sunday. Two who made their first flights with him were Mrs. Melda Rawlin-son and her sister, Mrs. Erma Roun dy. Both the girls loved it. Erma said, "There's just nothing like it" and Melda's comment was, in a word, "Thrilling". They both noted the feeling common to that as soon as they got ever it is that the makes the area officially dangerous for flyers. While we didn't identify the spot, we had a nice smooth flight. The sun was low in the af-ternoon; crescent shaped sand dunes cast their shadows on the neat and orderly; the little plane dponed along smoothly; the air was perfect and there was nobody up there but just us birds. Speaking of birds, they have be-come a problem in the hangar. They roost above the airplanes. An effort will be made to poision them. The birds seem to think the hangar is to shelter everything that fliers, including themselves. HELIMSHAP ... It's a good thing Santa Claus is immortal, because he is encoun tering more mishaps in his pre-season appearances again this year At Bountiful the Helicopter he was riding in hit a power line, causing some little damage to the 'copter and slight injury to the pilot and Santa. Not only that, but he is just recovering from a case of Mumps.

Dur-ing the afternoon a whole flock of flyers enjoyed it.
