All You Kite Navigators "Flying kites in a stiff March wind is great sport, but it can be ( dangerous, too, unless proper precautions pre-cautions are observed," says L. R. Fournier, general superintendent for Telluride Power Company. Before you launch that "sky flier" run through this pre-flight check list for your own safety and safely of others: Fly kites in plenty of open space, and never fly kites near electric wires and poles. Don't use metal or wire of any kind on kites. Use only dry cotton string. Never fly your kite with wet string. Water is one of the best conductors of electricity. Never clim'b poles to recover kites. Never try to release entangled en-tangled kites by throwing stones at them. Never run across streets to get kites into the air. Report kites caught in wires and poles to your nearest power company com-pany office.
