Show All the news that s lit to punt licra tiie Delta Aupsri Tcke Offs And Landings Hob Carling put in some time at dual flying practice. Sianley Dewsnup and Sheldon Cmsteasfn have bought the T-Cratt T-Cratt owned by Fred Baker and taiaily. They have engaged Ralph Woodhouse to take it to Spanish Foik and re-cover the wings. Recovering Re-covering the wings means one thin, while recovering them means something else. It was necessary to recover them before they could be re-covered in this case, because be-cause of an incident which occurred occur-red at Fillmore airport a while oack. Carl Baker had flown the T-Craft over there, and had it tied down, when a whirlwind hit. The whirlwind broke it loose from Us moorings and cart wheeled it, tearing the wings off. The wings were recovered, however, the plane i trucked back to Delta, and the component parts put back together again. So now the plane with its recovered wings is to be sent to Spanish to have said wings recovered re-covered which, after an official inspection, should leave it in tip-1 top shape. Before dropping the ; subject of this black and yellow airplane, I just want to recall the j fact that it was in it that I did my first loop. To me, it was an unforgettable experience. I In selling his T-Craft, Fred Bak-j er had of course, no intention of leaving himself permanently groun j ded. Fred, in turn, has bought the Cessna formerly owned by Tex Searle. It took something to induce Xona Chesley to take to the air with any pilot other than Nate Ward at the controls. Even the offer of a trip to Washington D. C. by air, a while back, wasn't enough. enou-gh. But a combination of difficult train schedules, winter weather, the arrival of a first grandchild, and, finally, a desire to make the homeward trip from Rapid City, S. D. as fast as possible, turned the trick. For it was to Rapid City that Scott and Nona Chesley, with their little daughter Julie, had gone to see their new grand daug-: hter D'Ann, born, there December Decem-ber 20, the first child of LaRae and Shirley Peterson. The trip to Rapid City had been arduous, or perhaps' it seemed more arduous than it was because they were so anxious to get there; but the story i that rather than f.icejhe lung homeward train trip back via Omaha, Om-aha, with changes and delays, Nona agreed to go as far as Casper. Cas-per. V.'yo. by air, after which, she'd see. S they flew to Casper in 1 ttie over an hour and then Nona dceided they might as well fly on to S.lt Lake. The result was a homeward flight which cut to two wad a half hours the tiaveling time of their eastward trip of 3S '.ums No a has decided the air-1 air-1 ' e p i ts c:tn h;Ai1!e the.r planes pretty vwll. and not only that, but, as little Julie put in a letter to !ur friend Pamela, the plane they went on had a stewardess. That's something the Aeronca Champ Nona used to f.y in never had. Plug Blows If I hadn't been accompanied by a sober and credible witness, I wouldn't blame anybody for doubting" what I have to report now. But when two people see the same thing, however unusual it's quite different from one person seeing something twice. And Ralph Christensen saw what I saw, and neither of us was seeing double. What we saw was smoke issuing upward from the Hot Plug. The time was about 1:50 PM Sunday. We were driving the pick-up along the Sugarville road west from June Hinckley's corner. It was unmis-Takable. unmis-Takable. Black, or dark smoke was rising from the east end of the old crater which marks the topmost top-most point at the center of the lava flow. We were surprised and checked several factors to verify the matter. mat-ter. Plainly the smoke was not originating this side of the crater. Was it coming from a fire behind it, on the far mountains? If it had been, the position with relation to the crater would have appeared to move as we drove the mile and half to Rodney Shields' house, but it did not move. The first smoke we saw dissolved in the air, and j after a few minutes more smoke issued forth, and it rose up until un-til it showed very distinctly above! the distant mountains, against the j white overcast of the northwest j sky. Then it melted away, and no more smoke came up. Now. it is known that there is still heat beneath the old plug. The hut springs to the oast of the lava indicate this. In bis Mill-' aid And Nearby.

One might even imagine, imag-ine, furthermore, that nature's underground un-derground furnace was being stok ed up in anticipation of some forthcoming forth-coming winter weather. It did not look that way. One thing is sure. If the late author of Millard And Neaiby could have seen it. he'd have cliia bed into a plane and had someone fly him out over the Plug to see j at t'.rst hand just what was going on. ! Roberta. Hot And Sweet j Among my many likes and dis- ! likes, there is a like which has' stuck with me lo, these manyj years, and which has flared up ( again to white heat since, on Chris j tmas, -they" gave me a new record re-cord of songs from Roberta. Roberta was a great show. Its situation was essentially humor-( ous, it didn't pretend to convey j any Great Social Message and it , provided a vehicle for a humding- j er of a fashion parade wherein, in j Hollywood illusion, a little modiste shop was expanded to cover about ten acres, full of beautiful g'"'ts each exhibiting a gown more devastating de-vastating than all the others. 1 never knew, or if 1 did it slipped slip-ped my mind some year since nin- j eteen thirty three, until I read, it on the record leaflet, that Otto. Harbach and Jerome Kern found j their inspiration for the musical, show in Alice Duer Miller story! named Gowns By Roberta, in the. Ladies' Home Journal. Nor did 1 recall that Fay Templeton and Lyda Robert! played the feminine leads when the show opened in New York, a score of years ago. Nor even did I remember that the original live production featured a trio of all but unknown gents named Fred MacMurray. Bob Hope, and Sydney Greenstreet. who later found fame in Hollywood, the progress pro-gress of their careers having been assisted by Roberta. But I can remember the movie that was made about 1:KV and itS amusing and charming story of a tough Alaskan miner who received wo.d that a foi gotten aunt had willed him her modiste shop in. t .vis, and who. with his pal, decided de-cided to go to Pans and run the business, not knowing that what he h id inherited was a "corset shop", as he put it, replete with 1 v nit; leminine models. 1 can rem en.ber. tn, the newer movie of just last year, for which I bought .4 t.ck.'l, autah-like, in full innocence innoc-ence of the tact that it was Roberta Rob-erta all over again under a new title taken lim one oi the songs. Lovely to Look At. And I cari remember the songs. Roberta wasn't just romance. It had its share of comedy with a touch of jai., the latter tv pitied in the song first Ming by lyda Koberti called l et's Begin. And for eouedy there was I Won't Dance number, best performed by Fred Astai.e and Ginger Rogers in the first movie version. The-t there were such sentimentals as Yesterdays, Yester-days, You're Devastating, The Touch Of Your Hand, and Lovely To 1-ook At. They could have carried car-ried a hit show alone, but there was another. Once in a month of Sundays, someone dreams up a tune .that captivates your heart the first time you hear it, and then endears itself to you forever. Such asong is Smoke Gets In Your Eyes. As the record leaflet expresses It, it' ran through the show like a Wagnerian Wag-nerian leit-motif. It was featured; in differing settings in the stage1 play and two movies. When a wistful girl named Tamara. playing play-ing the role of Stephanie, first ; sang it on stage, to her own guit- ar accompanyment, it stopped thej show. When it was played hi the' first i;iov ie version w ith a scene : in which a little group of Rus-j sian exiles, at a party in Paris, I drew a curtain showing the Czar-! 1st coat of arms, it choked up thej throats of all who heard it. And when, in last yer's movie, it was played for a couple -to dance to out among the stars, out on the milky way, it "made" a lovely dance. Twenty years have passed since Roberta was new and Tamara sang that song on the stage.
