for Our Opening Iftim(S)ID)ISILraS Watch Grand Re By UNCLE MIKE It takes more than unpredictable weather to keep sports aviators grounded. Weather ranged from rain. hail, snow flurries through fog and winds that ranged up to 53 miles per hour. And with it all 42 transient air craft visited the Sonoma County Airport during the week. Highest winds or the period were recorded Tuesday about 2 p.m.

when instruments recorded velocities up to ad miies, says Superintendent Harrison Mecham. "We had intermittent gusts early in the day and for two hours before the peak was reached it held fairly steadily at 45 to 47 miles an hour," he said. "Of course that meant that air travel by large and small aircraft was at a complete stalemate during that period." Southwest missed its morning flights Tuesday because of dense fog. But the afternoon schedules, northbound at 7:10 p.m. and south bound at 7:45, came through on time after the wind dropped.

WITH ALL, OF IT, the Redwood Empire, or at least this portion of it. was in better flying condition than some of the other northern areas. Redding and Red Bluff fields were snowed and iced in for lone periods, with service into them disrupted. "Good flying" was reported from Calistoga when Dave Comp-ton, airport manager, flew to Santa Rosa in a Beach Bonanza for a visit with local friends. Healdsbure had its share of in clement weather, too.

But Jack Lewis, who has his own airstrip on his ranch property, and Mr and Mrs. Russ Petty who fly from the Norton Sky Ranch, found time to get in a lot of hours including visits to the county port. Austin Kelly, one of the oper ators of the Pacific States Flying Service on Buchanan Field, Con cord, flew three students in aboard a Stinson on an indoctrination flight. BIG ACTIVITIES by USC at Hancock Field, Santa Maria, were reported by Jack Hunter, assistant manager of the big Southern Can fornia field. It has become the locale for the University of Southern California aviation section Complete aviation facilities from flight training to electronics are conducted there, he reports.

It was his first visit to the Sonoma county area in a year. Some of the others who helped kep aviation humming in between weather outbursts included: F. X. Mechauf and a party of three guests from Burbank in Beech Bonanza on a business trip to banta Kosa; T. G.

Richmond HERBERT F. HAREN, pro motion director from Town- send Plan, headquarters in Cleveland will speak at an open meeting at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 27 at the Labor Temple, 636 Third street. Mr.

Iaren's Santa Rosa appearance will be sponsored by Townsend club No. 2. IT DID HAPPEN! By P. R. SANSON Back in the hey-day of the good old phonograph and long before the radio became perfected or popular, my father-in-law" down in Ventura had one of those ancient instruments which he strongly believed had seen its best days.

Along with it there was a large collection of equally mossy old records some of Avhich were cracked and warped. His two children had played one or two of their favorites over arid over again until the strains of "It's a Long Way to Tipperary" began to have, an active part in some of his worst nightmares. And so being driven almost to distraction, he finally as a last resort took the entire outfit down to one of the local charitable organizations and told them to give it to some needy family, that he never wanted to see or hear the darn thing again. One day while at work down at his place of business on Santa Clara street a mournful and strangely familiar screeching noise came from an open window of the house next door where a not to well-to-do family lived. He rushed out of the building, breathlessly ran over to the house next door and, taking the chance of being arrested as a Peeping Tom, peered in the open window.

There to his complete dismay he saw that confounded phonograph returned from out of the nowhere to to Santa Rosa in a Cessna 170: N. Perkins and thre friends flvine from Bakersfield to Sebastorjol in a Navion; a converted B-23 bom ber, owned by the Pacific Lumber Co. at Scotia, which dropped in with a party of lumber executives to drop off Russell Stevens, Healdsburg lumber man, who was met at the field by Paul Young, Los Angeles en gineering firm executive, flew five guests to his Calistoga area ranch in his converted A-20 bomber. A business trip to Santa Rosa brought F. Thomas and three associates from Lodi in a Stinson.

Charles Wicart, teacher at the Pacific Union College in Napa county, who learned to fly at the Santa Rosa School of Aviation, flew a Luscombe over the hills to visit his former teachers during the week. NEWEST PLANES of the week to park at the county field are a new Navion owned by Dr. Glen McCaf ery of Spokane, and a Luscombe, owned by Ted Cralle; of San Mateo. The Santa Rosa Memorial Hos pital, plus the county operated flying field were joint factors in bringing Dr. McCaffery to this area.

It was lack of hangar space in the peninsula area that attract ed Mr. Cralle. His Luscombe is the fourth bay area plane to be berthed at. the county field in 90 days because of crowded lying conditions in the peninsula area. Others are a T-craft owned by Robert Scott, Red wood City; a Fairchild PT-19 own ed by D.

B. Stevens, Belmont, and a Navion owned by Mrs. M. F. Hellman.

SAYS MR. MECHAM: "They all say they can travel by automobile from their homes to the county field and get their flying time in easier than they can buck air traffic in the fields of the bay area." Three more aircraft, all owned by friends of Mr. Cralle, are expected soon, he adds. A T-craft owned by Frank Baldwin, Fort Bragg and an Aer-onca owned by John Moller, Two Rock, were re-licensed during the week by Charles Cassina, who also George Stevens, producer-director of "A Place in the Sun" at Paramount, says: "I have yet to direct a temperamental actress or actor." Montgomery Clift, Elizabeth Taylor and Winters are co-starred and all three rave about Stevens' talents and under standing. 535 FOURTH STREET Edited by GEORGE KOLTANOWSKI International Chess Master Problem by L.

IN ANSWER to many questions pertaining to rare breeds of cats and other animals, the Russian Blue cats are perhaps the rarest of all. There are only three imported ones on the Pacific Coast. They are short-haired cats silver, lavender and maltese in color. Their, fur is thick about the depth and texture of sealskin. They have green eyes, nice dispositions and are very beautiful.

The Abyssinians, another short- haired cat, are seen rarely at the larger cat shows. Prices range $150.00 and up. GUINEA PIGS, or Cavies, originated in the Andes and first brought to Europe about 300 years ago. Their ancestors were small multi-colored rodents native to the high, altitudes. The most beautiful and least seen are the Peruvians.

When un-combined it looks like an animated mop. They have habits similar to rabbits and make fine house pets. i S2f3 G2 s-HQ Ef 't 3 be 4 3: 9 9 10 19 WHY NOT REMOVE THE CAUSE! OUR FULL BODY X-Ray Examination Will Give You the Facts If You Are Sick Try Our Coon Therapy System Dr. H. H.
