Show War Clouds ore Delaying Trip to India Do.i nnd Barbara Morgan, and daug'ers, Kelly, 5, and Jodv. 1. who sailed from New York Oct. 5) for New Delhi. India, expecting to arrive Oct. 24 at their destination, are still on the way, according to letters and cards to their parents, Mr. f.nd Mrs. Spencer Wright, at Delta. The Morgan fr.mily had a fine crossing of the Atlantic, and thoroughly thor-oughly enjoyed life on board ship, and their tours in Barcelona, Spain, and Marseilles. France. They were also looking forward to their arrival ar-rival in New Delhi, where Mr. Morgan Mor-gan is assigned with the U. S. Embassy, Em-bassy, and U. S. Foreign Service. But they arrived at Eeirut. Lebanon, Leba-non, a day late and missed their flight by Air France to India. While they waited for another flight affairs boiled over in the Middle-East, Middle-East, and Eeirut overflowed with people who poured in from Syria, Iraq, Jordan and Egypt. Barbara assured her parents that they were being very well taken care of by the American Embassy, but even so the Wrights are anxi-! ously awaiting more word from the travelers. On Oct. 31 the Morgans were still at Beirut, and then a letter Nov.2 said they were leaving via Pan American to Istanbul, Turkey, and on. However, they got no farther far-ther than Istanbul, neutral territory, terri-tory, according to their last card Nov. 5, and found the city full of refugees. Barbara wrote "We were to leave last night for Teheran, packed and checked out only to learn that there was no fuel for the plane. They've shut off the pipe lines, no gas. Were lucky to get back in the hotel. Have promise of flight Nov. 20." And in the ten days since the Wrights have had no more word from the Morgans, and are hoping daily to hear "We're here, safe and sound".

All Are Concei m d When CarelesG Shots Cause Long-Costly Long-Costly Power Line Outrages During the last deer hunt the Telluride Power Co. had five serious power outages, apparently caused by deer hunters shooting the high voltage power lines. In spite of the fact that the company has offered a reward of 100 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone shooting power lines, through this paper, other weekly papers, and over KSVC radio, Telluride had I more power line shootings this year than for many years pst. j Citizens of Garfield County were' seriously inconvenienced in one I week, from Oct. 22 to 28, whenj the main high voltage transmission lines of Telluride Power Co. were j shot down five times, and run in- J to with a truck once, causing six serious power outages. j On Sunday, Oct. 28, they were without power for nearly five hours, when a 44.000 volt line was shot down. The Garfield County News reported it. witk the headline head-line "Fool With Gun Plunges Area Into Line-Shot Darkness". The Richfield Reaper made an editorial comment, titled "It Easily Could Ee Your Loved One", and pointed out that a hospital patient could have died as a result of the power outage.

It is rather the misplaced vanity of a show-off, a chump, or a knot-head. Certainly they deserve no consideration consid-eration for their trigger-happy and thoughtless attitudes. A swift way to curtail these malicious shootings would be to collect several hundred dollar rewards, and make the offense off-ense costly enough to the offenders that there will be no repeat performances. per-formances.
