Air Force To Show Fighter Plane In Basin Pay 22 - 23 Residents of the Basin will have a chance next week to inspect some of the equipment they are paying taxes to build and maintain as a defense measure in these very unsettled times. Next Tuesday, Tues-day, May 22, the Air Force will display an F-84 Thunder Jet fighter fight-er plane on a vacant lot across the. street from the post, office in Duchesne during the afternoon. The next morning, May 23, the same display will be set up on the Roosevelt City Park, where people of the Roosevelt area may inspect and study the new, modern mod-ern plane that will defend us from any enemy. The huge plane will be mounted on a 40-foot flat bed trailer with ramps built along the side of the aircraft so that spectators can view the engine, instruments and controls through cut-away portions of the plane's fuselage. The general public, including schools, are urged to take a minute min-ute or two and inspect this large fighter. (See Photo On Page 8)
