8 Isle Royale Transfer Urged by Andersen Slight Melting Slows Forecast of Flood Crest JSanoSbeen Babies Everything in Your House Lease Delays Post Office Airport Move The U.S. Post Office By SAM NEWLUND Minneapolis Tribune Staff Writer surrounding the newly estab ft Vassal, A IV rv Runoff from snow and melting ice is still not well underway in the Upper Mississippi, St. Croix and Chip' pewa Rivers, the U.S. Weather Bureau in Minne apolis reported Wednesday night. Joseph Strub, climatologist at the bureau, said no predic tions of flood crests for the Mississippi below St.

Paul would be made until next week. Some low-lying dwellings in the Carver and Chaska areas were inundated almost up to the eaves by the Minnesota River yesterday, however. The Minnesota is expected to crest at 6 feet over flood stage at Chaska today, Strub said, and at 8 feet over flood stage at Savage Friday night or early Saturday. The crest on the Minnesota is expected to pass Mendota Saturday. The possibility of flooding next week along the Mississippi downriver from the Twin Cities will depend on the runoff rate of its upstream tributaries, Strub said.

In South Dakota, flooding continued yesterday in the James River valley, in the southeastern part of the state. A bridge over the James at Yankton, on Hwy. 46, was closed by high water. II AT HANNAN'S GRAND MARAIS, Mjnn. Gov.

Elmer L. Andersen said Wednesday that Minnesota should "sort of take over" Isle Royale, 20 miles off the Lake Superior shore. Isle Royale is a national park which technically lies within the boundaries of Michigan. But it is much closer to Minnesota than to Michigan. BY "TAKE OVER," Andersen meant the promotion of the resort island as "a Minnesota asset" and the transfer of National Park Service administration of the island from Houghton, to Grand Portage, Minn.

His statement was made in a breakfast talk at Grand Marais before his visit to the Grand Portage Indian Reservation, 30 miles northeast of Grand Marais on the Lake Superior shore. Anybody who asks the National Park Service how to get to Isle Royale is advised to take the excursion boat from Houghton, but nobody mentions that the is land can be reached from Grand Portage, Andersen said. Paul LeGarde, senior mem ber of the Grand Portage Indian Band Council, said the "million dollar" excur sion boat should operate out of Grand Portage as well as Houghton. Smaller boats now are available for island trips from Grand Portage. THE ISLE ROYALE idea was one of several proposed for luring new tourists to the northeastern tip of the Minnesota Arrowhead.

On his trip to the picturesque, pine-studded reservation, the governor was accompanied by James E. Hawkins, area director for the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs, and several welfare, conservation and area development officials. They inspected the site of a proposed Indian park, stretching for 20 miles in a spectacular lakeshore setting, ON DISPLAY AMA PRESIDENT DR. .4 broken leg put LEONARD LARSON him on crutches ADDRESSES ALLERGISTS AMA Chief Takes Broken Leg in Stride By VICTOR COHN Minneapolis Tribune Staff Writer MINHtifOLIS MORNING T1IBUNE April 5. 1962 Air Official Will Oppose Three Towers Dale Maclver, state commissioner of aeronautics, will appear at Federal Aviation Agency (FAA) hearings in the Twin Cities later this spring to oppose construction of a Sauk Rapids, radio tower and two television towers in Shoreview, he said Wednesday.

The three proposed towers are a 262-foot radio transmitting tower about a mile from the St. Cloud, airport and two TV transmitting towers, 1,650 and 1,750 feet high, on Lexington Av. between County Roads and in Shoreview, Maclver said. AFTER INFORMAL hearings last year in Kansas City, the FAA gave tentative approval to all three, but decided on local public hearings after protests from the State Aeronautics Commission and other opponents of the towers, Maclver said. In the Sauk Rapids case, Maclver will argue that the tower is too close to the airport's northeast approach and could be a hazard, particularly to light planes.

A site to the southeast would be agreeable to the state, he said. The TV towers fall within the "hub" of Twin Cities air traffic, he said. With better lighting, a height of 1,000 feet would be satisfactory, he said. APPLICANT for the radio tower is Tri-County Broadcasting St. Cloud.

Stations WCCO-TV. WTCN-TV, KMSP-TV AND KSTP-TV want to build and share the TV towers. Others opposing the Sauk Rapids tower are the City of St. Cloud, the National Association of State Aviation Officials and the Airline Pi lots Association, Maclver said. The Minneapolis St.

Paul Metropolitan Airports Commission opposes the TV towers. Hearing on the radio tower is set for 10 a.m. April 19 in the Parkway Motor Court, 4757 Hiawatha Av. Clifford P. Burton, Washington, D.C., an official in the FAA's air traffic service, will preside.

HEARING DATE for the TV towers has not been set. Maclver said he expected it "sometime in May." The FAA has not yet ruled on an application by Central Minnesota Television Alexandria, to build a 999-foot transmission tower near Hackensack, Maclver said. If it is approved, the state will protest the ruling, he said. A light plane crashed into A 400-foot antenna Jan. 12 near Chippewa Falls, killing five men.

A state suit against the builders of the tower is now before the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Maclver said.

Eau Claire. GAS BUY Wednesday was still waiting to move into the new termi nal building at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. It has wanted to move from its quarters in the old terminal since the new termi nal opened Jan. 21.

The post office has been shuttling airmail from the old terminal to the new building, a 4.9-mile drive to the other side of the field. THE SHUTTLING by trucks sometimes has caused delays up to 24 hours in de livery of the mail on the West Coast, the post office has said. What has kept the post of fice from moving its facility was a dispute about how much rent it should pay the Metropolitan Airport Com mission (MAC) for 7,327 square feet of new space. After six weeks of argu ments, in which federal post al officials came from Washington, D.C., to bargain, the rent dispute was officially settled March 5. But the rental lease agreement has not been signed.

"The lease is in Washington now," said James M. Murphy, head of the real estate division of the Minneapolis Post Office. Murphy said he could not give any date for when it would be signed. "My guess guess would be a couple of weeks. But I don know," he said.

The monument is a pre-Revolutionary War trading post stockade. NOW THAT the park service has moved into Grand Portage with a national monument, Andersen said, it should go a step further and operate Isle Royale National Park from the same base.

The governor and other visitors agreed that Grand Portage Indians are among the least destitute in Minne sota, and that their homeland has as much scenic beauty to attract tourists as any place in the state. One welfare official said there is "a better grade of Indians" at Grand Portage William (Bucko) Bushman, chairman of the Indian band's council, said construction and other projects near Grand Portage give Indians greater opportunity for sea a 1 work than on some other reservations. Andersen announced 'the appointment of John W.

AMA and medical mission representatives have held several meetings to map co-operation. At home, he admitted, the AMA's main concern remains defeating administration health insurance proposals and extending state and vol untary plans as substitutes. Will the administration effort to put hospitalization of the aged under Social Security be defeated?

The president of the Amer- ican Medical Association is on crutches.

Short, homey Dr. Leonard W. Larson of Bismarck, N. explained why Wednesday. He stumbled and fell down three piddling steps on his way to dinner March 6 at a Florida inn.

He broke his right fibula the slimmer of the two long bones between foot and knee. HE WAS in bed in a small 25-bed hospital for a week. Now the leg's in a cast for another month, and he's hobbling from city to city, attacking government health insurance proposals and putting forth the American Med-i a 1 Association (AMA) stand. Does the leg hurt? "Not too bad." Does he like being a patient? "Oh, I just love it!" Does he have health insurance? "Sure, Blue Cross and two group-medical policies. But I didn't need them for this.

The inn paid the whole bill." IS THE BREAK slowing him down as a national medical spokesman? The answer was "no" as he spoke at the Hotel Rad-isson yesterday noon to the American College of Allergists. He made a new proposal there that the United States let young doctors serve abroad as medical missionaries as a substitute for military service. A young doctor now has to serve two years under the draft law, he pointed out. "I firmly believe more good will, understanding and compassion betweens peoples of the world can be carried in a doctor's satchel than in a diplomat's port folio, he said.
