Show 40 YEARS AGO ... MILLAItb COUNTY CHRONICLE Wingovers - Mid got his private pilot license a laxative at all." DOWUBRArTS ... To Be Sentenced I Delta, Utah, Thurs., Jan. 25, 1951 1 the day before, and then spent In that case, I'd like to ask, "ALL THE NEWS THAT'S FIT giving rides to his what would i: t be? An Eastern Airlines From the Files Paul Ashworth, Richfield, gener-al manager of the Telluride Power Co., has been named to work on the National Association of Man-ufacturers' committe on conserv-ation of renewable natural resour-ces. The appointment was made by William H. Ru'ffin, president of the NAM. Sunday plane friends. Bob's mother, Mrs. Millie Jones went up as his first passenger. It was also her fledgling flight, and she came down to earth a flying enthusiast. She says she prefers flying motorcycling. She said, too, that when flying over the Jones farm she saw some things she now intends to move, just for the looks of it. Chief of these is the old Salt Lake City street car, which Dave Richardson moved there and lived in for a while. Once the pride of Salt Lake's trasportation system these old cars are now widely scat tered. I'll never forget the 'feeling of befuddlement I felt the day I drove past the Jones farm and saw it parked there. Maybe it would be well to move it. - Cal Jones, Bob's father, was his second passenger, and after that the field was wide open.-Ladd- , Bry-ant and Sherman Jones, and Earl Steele all got their turn in the air. TO PRINT FROM THE DELTA AIRPORT" DICK MORRISON AMONG THOSE FLYING' . . . Sunday was another beautiful day for flying, and a number of Delta people took advantage of it to take plane rides, many for the first time. Dick (down wind) Wind got in some practice flying the Champ, and then took his children, Harry, Kay, Jolyn and Jer ry for a ride in the sedan. Leon Theobald was at it again, too. He treated Bud and Dutch Fullmer and Joe Christensen to their first air rides. Mr. and Mrs. Verrue Theobald and their young child went up. Speed and Ardella Riding drove out to the airport toward evening, just to look on, and at my invitat-ion they soon were looking at Delta straight down from 2000 ft. The air was delightfully smooth. GETS PRIVATE . . . Bob Jones was happy as a lark' Sunday. He passed his 'flight test good A cartoon in the LA Examiner shows a weary GI kneeling by a snow bank saying, "Lord, give me the strength of a hundred men. Let's make this a fair fight." FORCED LANDING ... Sunday afternoon at 1451 Bob Nichoels of Delta Radio heard a navy plane calling Salt Lake, say-ing had just made a forced land-ing in the mountains. The pilot did not give the exact location, nor did he give reason for the landing or extent of damage. Max Kay, on duty at the watch house a little later said the plane's radio operat-or talked naturally, did not seem excited, and the presumption was that no one was hurt. Monday's dailies reported that James Mash, o't Murray, crash lan-ded a naval training plane on a mountainside in Morgan Co. Sun-day at 1525. The. plane was out of gas, made a wheels up landing and was extensively damaged, al-though the pilot was not hurt. He walked through heavy snow to hiphwav 30 and was later taken Constellat-ion took a 300 ft. drop in a freak downdraft last week. No harm was done, but the 60 passengers were thrown to the ceiling aisle. This recalls the time a trans-port in Alaska dropped 500 ft. dur-ing its landing approach some time back. Regardless of how big they are or how luxurious, planes are planes and they are all subject to the same aerodynamic laws. Stalling speed, angle of attack, steep ban-ked turns - - they all mean the same for Constellation or Cub. A private pilot might have enjoyed feeling the Connie lose its lift, but the sensation may have been a bit rough on some ticket buying flyers. There may never be an end to the stories of that bad winter two years ago. Louella Mc Allister was just telling how she used to ride to work on the snow plow. Archie Barben, Howard Day and her hus-band, Le, used to haul her down to the cafe on it to be sure she was there to fix their morning coffee. TAKE OFFS AND LANDINGS . . . Leo Burraston piloted Jay R. Udy of the Utah Fish and Game Com-mission on an antelope counting trip over the desert Wednesday. Samuel E. (Ed) Duncan took up his duties as aircraft communicator here Jan. 9. He is transferred from Los Angeles, and thinks Delta is a cold spot. His wife and two small children are remaining in LA dur-ing the cold weather. to Salt Lake by a state trooper. BACKS AIR POWER ... Major Alexander P. de Seversky, noted aircraft designer, added his voice to those who want America to rule the air, in an address to the Utah Legislature in joint ses-sion last Friday. He said the U. S. should build an air force capable of striking anywhere in the world, some critics of this idea have cal-led it a Maginot line philosophy. How anyone can compare 600 mph with the stationary defense line is beyond me. JESS UP . . . Hawk-eye- d observers noted Jess Done's Aeronca Chief flying over the airport Sunday, but we can't say where he was going. He didn't stop in. Didja know an Ornithopter is an aircraft designed to fly by flapping its wings? - - P. S. - --They weren't very successful. Considering the impasse in the UN and the Korean war, shall we say that "One World" led to an-other? "The art of flying is a funda-mental one", said the report quot-ed in Wingovers a month ago. It advocated "gTass airport" train -- ing for a future air 'froce. In this connection, we have just learned that after the Treaty of Versailles forbade the Germans to build airplanes, in 1919, the Ger-mans built gliders and taught fly-ing by that means. Indeed, the art of flying is fundamental. When Hitler took power a host of Ger-man youth already knew the and by 1939 Germany had the world's biggest air froce. P. S. - - Within three years af-ter that, the U. S. had the biggest Mr. and Mrs. Bob Nichols and their young son flew in to Salt Lake Jan. 9. THOSE RADIO ADS . . . Most of us have become so to bad taste in radio advertising that we can listen to the praises o'f a patented depilat-ory during our dinner hour with-out turning a hair. Recently a spieler for some kind of physic hit a new high in some-thing or other when he said of it, "You'll hardly know you've taken man luftwaffe. The point is that flying in small planes or even gliders teaches the principles of flight. QUESTION OF RANK . . . Wives and mothers of reserve members are not the only ones who dislike seeing their loved ones called for duty. The husband of a 2nd lieutenant recently protested to Sen. Johnson when she, a WAC reserve, was called. "He doesn't want to give her up" said the sen-ator. And that brings us to the quest-ion of whether it is correct to refer to a W A ,C 2nd looie as a lady shavetail. TIMBER 111 Leo Burraston and Gene Peter-son devised a new way of harvest-ing Xmas trees a while back. Be-ing out in the hills with shotguns and no axe, and finding some nice trees handy, they just gave 'em both barrels right at the base. In District Court On January 29 State "of Utah, plaintiff, vs. Ches-ter V Manness, defendant, was District Court at Fill-more, tried in the Jan. 13, and in a judgment and order by. Judge Will L. Holt found guilty of the defendant was a misdemeanor under the charge set 'forth in the complaint. The complaint charged "That the said Chester V. Manness, on or about the 20 day of September, 1949, did defraud one Noble G. Peterson, the owner and operator of the Southern Hotel at Delta, Millard County, State of Utah, by then and there surreptitiously re-moving from said hotel his bag-gage and effects while there exist-ed a lien upon the same for lodg-ings furnished him therein." The defendant was ordered to ap pear before the district court on Monday, Jan. 29, 1951, at 11 a. m. for imposition of sentence. The case had been appealed to the district court from a judgment and conviction in the Justice court Delta precinct. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Snow and two sans, from Salt Lake City, were week end visitors with their par-ents, Mr. and Mj.-- Joe Snow. .... New Gold Strike In Antepole Mts. Parties coming in from the Ante lope Mountains report that the minerals were silver, lead and cop-per, with a little gold. A Provo party doing assessment work on some claims on the nor-thern end of the Antelope range is reported to have run into a little vein of gold ore, while sinking a shaft, assaying seven ounces per ton, About one mile south of the above group is a group of claims with a number of veins showing lead and spar with pure galena in places. They have on some veins copper which assays high grade. The formation is blue lime and quartzite. The claims have five tunnel sites, and the owners of the latter group which are W. W. Moo-dy of Deseret, and H. F. Riebling, M. E. and Attorney H. W. Spang-le- r of Denver are planning to cut most of their vein with a tunnel which has been started at the bottom o'f the hill. About one and a half miles sou- - n th of the latter group of claims Is ,A a copper property owned by Mr. '''' Joe Moody, or Deseret and assoc- - ' iates. They have a shaft down nearly 100 feet in fine copper ore. Besides there are a number of oth-er parties doing assessment work in this district. The district has such a fine sur-face showing in mineral, that sev-eral of the owners are figuring on starting a mining camp by next summer, at the Antelope Springs, near there, and name it Mineral City. Moody, Riebling and Spangler have a deal on with a Denver syndicate for their property. Other capitalists are expected to come out from Salt Lake and look the properties over. Mining men are of the opinion that a good com-pany will take hold and open up the properties properly, that it will prove to be a good shipping camp. The place is best reached by way of Black Rock, a station on the San Pedro road. Antelope mining district is al-most on the line of Beaver county, aKmit tan milac cnntliact rt Clatlr Rock.
