Danger of ice as one of the leading threats to winter flying has been greatly reduced. New equipment effectually combats formation of ice on wing surfaces, propellers and radio antennae. Equipment consists chiefly of rubber coverings installed on all leading edges of the ship, including the wings, and so constructed 'hat periodic pulsations of air through the rubber tubing under the coverings break oft the ice as soon at it forms.

To protect the propellers a slinger ring is attached, feeding an anti-freeze solution to the bare blades. Radio antennae is kept free by a shock cord mounted on the antennae attachment to the fin. The pilot jerks the cord, it snaps back, removing the ice. Hand in hand -with the purely mechanical devices to make flying safe go at least a dozen other i practices now employed -by" major i airlines. Transport ships are equipped with sufficient gasoline for a I round trip.

The rule holds whether or not it means canceling passenger seats. Minimum flight altitudes are set, that a pilot under all maintain a height of at, least one-half mile above the highest terrain within 50 miles of the course. Miss No Beta Pilots are paid a. guaranteeo minimum salary, whether they fly or not. Every flight is made uv der definite order with the requirement that the dispatcher ap- prove the, flight plan before the plane can take off.

During the winter months schedules are lengthened, flying speed reduced with a resultant saving or horsepower, a prime safety factor. "The "warm up" periods before flights have been increased, a new system of oil tank "lagging" or lining has been devised. Personnel discipline has been made more strict. Finally ground communications have been vastly improved. Aviation may fall short of its all-time record goal in 1938-39 but it is missing no opportunity to make flying as safe as possible.

SILVER CREEK'S SWING BRIDGE IS REPAIRED Silver Creek, Dec. 9--The swing; bridge connecting Parkway and the ball field and furnishing short cut from the center of the; village to Parkway, has been; overhauled by Street Commission-1 er Henry Summerton and his workmen this week.

New boards have replaced worn ones and the, braces which have become loosened have been replaced and tightened. The swing bride is used so constantly 'by Parkway persons that it gets little extra swinging from the children of that part of town, but on the occasion of public games or meets on the ball park, visiting young people find great pleasure in swinging the bridge, little realizing how much damage they do and how unsteady they make it for the older people who have to cross it ea their way over towm.
