STATE TROOPER PRAISES CCC GAMP TRUCK DRIVERS Trooper Ralph Sheehan of the Michigan state police paid the 667th at Camp Haco, and tho Civilian Conservation Corps a high compliment in his address to thc company on Thursday. "Three years ago," he said, "thc drivers'of the CCC wcr so bad that citizens begged the state police to do something about them. 'They are driving us off the lived here a long tim and we want to 'Do something about it' were common requests. The matter was taken up with the CCC officials and a program inaugurated for training drivers. Today the drivers of the CCC are the finest group of drivers in the Upper Peninsula.

In place of complaint we now receive daily from the citizens of the various communities only words of praise for the many courtesies displayed by the men o'f the CC to persons, both drivers and pedestrians, along our highways." Construction of bases for a 205-1 foot fabricated steel tower for Radio Station WSOO, of the Hia- wathaland Broadcasting company on the William Dickison farm, five miles south of the Sault, will be started this week, Vernon Aikins, president, said today. Site for the tower has been tentatively approved by the Federal Communications Commission, and work is being rushed so that the station may operate at the earliest possible date, Mr. Aikins, said. More than seven miles of copper wire will be used in the latest type transmitting system. Extending from the toiver at the base, like spokes of a giant wheel, wire will be placed underground by a special plow being sent to the Sault by the Radio Corporation of America.

The wires will extend 300 feet from thc base of the tower three degrees apart, each, buried six to eight inches, under ground. A total of i 120 separate 300-foot wires will emanate from thc base of the tower. Appearing like a giant fire tcwer, the new mast will be plainly seen from the highway. It has been placed on the Dickison farm, said! Mr. Aikins, because at this point it is most advantageously situated i to serve not only the two Saults, but Newbcrry and St.

Ignacc. All equipment for the station has been purchased. Some of it has arrived in the Sault, and the rest is en route to the city. Although thc tower and transmitter building will be located on the Dickison farm studios will be in the Sault said Aikins. The tower is of latest design, and is planned to produce thc best possible signals.
