Wild Idea Take the man who landed here Sunday afternoon, piloting hu own 450 hp Howard plane. (I had never heard of that make before, either, but Leo Burraston recognized recog-nized it instantly.) There "being no one else handy at the time to service the plane, I assisted in filling the tanks with 107 gallons of 91 octane gas and a gallon of oil, and while so doing do-ing got to talking with the flyer, and, of course, asked him a few questions. It developed that he had flown from Sheridan, Wyo., that day, and was expecting to make Las Vegas by night fall, from whence he would fly on to Southern Calif., the following morning. The ship belonged to an electronics supply company of which he was the own er. In other words, it was an executive ex-ecutive plane, and he was the ex ecutlve. The So-And-So Coil Company, Com-pany, he called his firm, and he ad ded, " We supply outfits like Hughes Hug-hes Aircraft, and some of the radio manufacturers." The Howard was luxuriously fitted fit-ted to carry four people, but he was alone In it, and that seemed a pity. looking at Us leather upholstered up-holstered seats, I got to toying with the idea of asking if he'd haul me to Vegas,' and the more I thought about it, the better the idea seemed. The air was clear and cool and there was a 15 mil? wind aloft from 20 degrees-ideal to help the plane along. There wouldn't be time to make arrangements, arrange-ments, but once in the air I could radio Ralph Kelson to call La Vonne and say I had hitch-hiked to Vegas in an airplane and would be home on the next train. La-Vonne La-Vonne wouldn't care, and even If she did there wouldn't be anything any-thing she could do about It until the train pulled In next day. Yes, it was a tempting thought, but I didn't follow through. 1 felt the call of the wild blue yonder, yon-der, but I didn't respond. Just kept my thoughts to myself as the flyer climbed aboard and took off, and headed south. In a few moments the plane was out of sight.

TELLURIDE POWER COMPANY I of human being that makes tele phone calls lasting fifteen minutes min-utes at a time while lying on her back in the middle of the floor. A Baca From Outer Space? Being a science-fiction addict j from away back, I wouldn't have missed the movie of H. G. Wells' . War Of The Worlds for anything. Stanley Dewsnup said that threat- re owners had been especially requested re-quested to show it, because of its educational value. For myself, I didn't see too much of that quality qua-lity in it, but it surely was a super su-per colossal spectacle of destruction. dest-ruction. As a general rule, pictures pict-ures that show the demoltion of the Los Angeles City Hall are pretty impressive. The picture reflected not only the rich imagination of Mr. Wells, but benefited also from the Inclusion In-clusion of such post-Wellsian deve lopments as an atomic explosion and television. It appealed to the Imagination, and it did seem to carry some sort of philosophical message, although a vague one, but what was the educational mes sage? Even Hollywood producers don't know what the dominant living creatures of Mars look like, if any. They might better have explained ex-plained in more detail just how the space ships overcame the force of gravity. The nearest thing to a moral or social lesson seemed to be that when the human race runs up against a situation it can't cope with. Divine Providence will intervene, inter-vene, microbes will rush to the rescue, and humanity will muddle mud-dle through in spite of, rather than because of, its own futile efforts. ef-forts. I saw no lesson in the evacuation of the city. If, in real life, the millions mil-lions of people In Los Angeles were to seek sanctuary In the San Gabriel Mountains, the situation would soon degenerate into anarchy anar-chy and chaos. A modern city is like a machine mach-ine built to serve the needs of its inhabitants. It is efficient, in the manner in which its great public utilities provide such things as electricity, water, and sewage disposal dis-posal for the masses. It is a product pro-duct of the industrial age. It is complex and vulnerable. The mill ions of people who depend on its facilities for their every day needs could not possibly survive if evac uated to the open country. Our world has become too populous for that. In case of H-bomb attack at-tack there would be no escape for them, none at all. In the next war, the urban civilian population populat-ion may have to adopt the fatalistic fat-alistic atitude soldiers take, that you can only die once. It shouldn't be too hard for older people to tell themselves. "This is my home. If it is to be destroyed, 1 won't wnnt to live any longer. I'll Just stay here as long as 1 live." But such ideas belong in the realm of serious drama, not imaginative science-fiction. H. G. Well ranks among the best of the "imaginative" writers of two generations ago, Just as Jules Verne did at an earlier period. per-iod. He based his stories on plausible plaus-ible extensions of scientific developments deve-lopments which were only then coming to light. And he gave social soc-ial problems the same imaginative imaginat-ive treatment as technological problems, pro-blems, in a number of stimulating though sootalistically inclined books. The War Of The Worlds was interesting, in-teresting, and in this day of rocket roc-ket ships it seems more plausible than when it was written, in lS'JS. Man today feels he may be on the threshold of interplanetary travel. Yet the practical problems may always prove insurmountable. There is the troublesome question of why. if it is ever to be possible inhabitants of older planets haven't hav-en't been engaging in it for ages. They had no need to wait until primitive earth-dwellers advanced to the point of achieving it.

This young man delivered to the county clerk on Monday of this week 4 skins belonging to that number of nearly grown animals, an-imals, and three that were as big as a grown calf. He drew down the neat sum of $122.50 as bounty on the said animals. $15 is paid on each animal by the state and $2.50 on each by the county.
