Show Balloon and Kite Wreckage Lands in Cedar Field An investigation is being made this week of the remains of a rubber balloon and a kite, which were found Sunday in a bunch of willows in a field north of Cedar City. The balloon, eight feet in diameter, di-ameter, was made of good quality qual-ity rubber, and was attached to a five-sided kite. A U. S. Army signal corps battery was hooked to the contraption and there were other wires which lead police to believe that some type of instrument instru-ment may have broken away from the kite. It has not been determined whether the balloon had been used by one of the armed forces for aerial readings or observations. observa-tions. It was found Sunday by George Sherratt and Horace Miller. |
