The Ornni-rang- e directional sys-tem is an advance over the LF system, in that it sends out cour-ses in every direction, instead of just four; being in the VHF radio sector is eliminates static, and it ' eliminates the need for a pilot to listen for his direction signal on a headset. The Omni signal is shown on a dial. - The CAA now has 271 onmi-ran-g-operating, but not all are con-tinuously linked on the air lanes. Plans call for an utimate 400 such ranges. They will provide not only continuous range signals along the airways, but will aso provide val-uable directional service off the airways. One of the VHF Omni-rang- e is located at Delta, just east of Fred Baker's farm. The Delta radiator was put in service last July, after John Campbell of the CAA drop-ped in to check it, and pronounced it OK. This VHF radiator was built in 1949, and about a year was re-quired for the engineers to work the bugs out of it. The round, hori-zontal, 36 ft. radiator "wheel" was lowered from its original height of 30 ft. to 15 ft., for one thing. Sig-nals reflected off the mountains and caused some difficulty. Again, interested readers may turn to their Chronicles of Dec. 8, 1949, in which Wingovers ran an artcle describing Delta Radio, both the LF and VHF systems. Wingovers "ALL THE NE'WS THAT'S FIT TO PRINT FROM THE DELTA AIRPORT" DICK MORRISON 40 YEARS AGO . . . Clara Davis Heads Ninety-Nine- s . . Possibly the most noted woman pilot among fnnner residents of Delta is Mrs. Walter S. Davis, of Los Angeles. Mrs. Davis is the for-mer Clara Bullock, daughter of Jim and Ida Bullock of Delta. Clara was recently elected chair-woman of the Los Angeles chapter of the Ninety-Nine- s, an organiz-ation of licensed women pilots. The Ninety-Nine- s organization was for-med in 1929 by the late Amelia Earhard, with 99 members at the start 'as the name indicates. It is now an international organization of flying women, with, of course, a much larger membership. Clara and her Claire Mc Millen, of Santa Ana, recently took fourth place among thirty three entrants in the women's transcon-tinental air race, flying a Cessna 140 from San Diego to Greenville, S. C. Their award was $20Q.00 cash, which they turned to the L. A. C. of C, which has done a great deal to promote private flying. Clara's husband, Walt Davis, was report-edly a bit skeptical about the idea of some sixty-od- d gals taking off on a transcontinental flight with-out a man along, but it seems they did right well by themselves. First place in the XC was won by Jean Parker, of Arcadia, Cal., another member of the Ninety - 0 Congressional investigation results from the fracas over TV color. Ful-ton Lewis, Jr., wrote in the LA Examiner last week that such an investigation can be forecast with certainty, and that it will be a lulu. The new Congress is over-whelmingly conservative, and con-servatives have long held the FCC in disfavor. They claim it has too much power over a private indust-ry, and wants more, and they talk of alleged censorship of free spee-ch on the radio. The most recent FCC order demanding that RCA turn all the research data on its color tube over the competitor whose system was approved has RCA up in arms. Radio Corporation has spent upwards of $50 million on TV research and doesnt' want to give it away. This and other things might well be investigated. Mrs. Mae Barton left Sunday to return to Soda Springs, Cal., after a week's visit in Abraham with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Reid. Also at the Reid home for pheasant season weer another dau ghter and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Preston Worsten, from Salt Lake City. During October, the CAA placed in operation the first controlled airways using the new VHF Omni-range radio directional system. The new routes cover 4380 miles, and are formed by the signals o'f 41 CAA Omni-rang- e radiator stations. They extend through six states, in-cluding such terminals as Kansas City, Denver, Albequerque, Omaha, Nines. Miss Parker had the thrilling experiente, while piloting a glider near Muroc Dry Lake the other day, of having a wing come off in flight. She hit the silk, and des-cended uneventfully, except that the incident resulted in her missing a dinner held 'for the Ninety-Niner- s at the Officers' Club on Wilshire. Clara and other participants in the XC were present. Mrs.' Davis was instrumental in promoting the organization of the Utah Chapter of the Ninety-Nine- s, which was formally .consummated last Saturday, in Salt Lake City, with Mrs. Genevieve Thornton, as president and Mrs. June Raybould as Secreary. Mrs. Thornton ,like Mrs. Davis, is a former resident of Delta, her family having been in-terested in the old Thornton Drug Store here. Mrs. Davis is employed by the Federal Reserve Bank in Los Ang-eles, personnel department. She was recently elected vice president of the" L. A. Federal Reserve Bank Club, the first woman to hold this office in the employees' club. Clara and Walter Davis flew their Cessna here last Oct. 20, for a week end visit, at Delta and Fill-more.
