Oak Phone 121 t Fathtr-Son Signal Links Railway To An Airiin DENVER, Colo. .A Passen- ?:ers on the United Airlines' flignt rom Denver to Cheyenne have noticed a train far below them winking its big headlight In the night. Passengers on the 8:15 p. m. Colorado and Southern be tween the same two towns have on more than one occasion spot ted the huge airliner flying par allel to the track, systematically blinking the lights on its wings. This has been going on for three years now. The engineer of the train and the pilot of the'plane are father and son. The blink-blink of the lights is 64 year-o 1 d Clarence Chapman's way of saying "How're you, boy?" to his air borne son, 31-year-old Capt. Le roy Chapman. Occasionally the senior Chap man fancies-up his nocturnal hel lo by lighting a red railroad flare and holding it out the window of his cab. "I'm right proud of my boy," Clarence says. "And I just like him to know the man's still up and around on the Job." Marshall Plan Ust In Europt Will Bt Studied SPOKANE, Aug. 10.

Summers Tues-1 day blurted out a story of ac cidenlal shooting. i The ex-convlct, arrested b y FBI agents last night, was given a formal appearance before U.S. commissioner Francis St. J. Fox. Summers is charged with the rifle slaving of Howard Easlev, 62. and his wife. Elizabeth, 67. Handcuffed and g u a r d e o two deputy U.S. Marshals, Sum mers appeared before commis sioner hox, who asked him if he had any statement. Summers didn't have to reply. But he recounted eagerly a story he had earlier told newsmen. He had visited the Easleys on their ranch, near where he lived, he said. Mrs. Easley berated him tor not picking up a suit at a cleaning place. Her husband join-. ed in the argument, which grew heated. Easley reached for a ri fle, the accused man said, and Summers and the rancher Strug- fled. The weapon discharged, j Irs. Easley was killed, and her i husband resumed the fight for possession of the gun. Again a buliet was fired, Summers de jlared. This one killed Easley. Commissioner Fox said quietly that bail would not be permitted. Joseph F. Karesh, representing the government, reminded the com missioner that $25,000 bail had been fixed on the murder war rant in Washington. Summers appeared pleased. "Twenty-five thousand." he re peated, "why I can furnish that." He added that "a woman u p there, who liked me very much, will furnish it." But he was sent back to jail, to await a hearing Friday o n removal to Washington. Three officers of the sheriff's detail in Tacoma left today for San Fran cisco to return the prisoner. 1 Harry M.

Betebirg Hews Views By SHERMAN PLIMPTON Not long ago a fancy hand writing was as much of a so cial acomplishment as order ng from a French menu. Then typewriters appeared and fancy penmanship with its curlicue birds and flowers fad ed. About the only place where penmanship was valued was in skywriting. Daring aviators, with their planes trailing smoke, looped and rolled across the sky as they wrote the names of cure-alls, soft drinks and tooth powder. But now a new machine controls the smoke from the ground and the letters come out in square blocks. It's called skytyplng. Looks like the only thing we can ever count on is change. MR. C. Ft.
