Supreme Court
Asked To Rule
On Traction Co.
SALEM (jfl An effort to force
Portland Traction Co. to restore
interurban passenger service be
tween Portland and Oregon City
to its former full status, was made
Monday in the state Supreme
uoun.
John McCullough, legal counsel
for the Public utilities commis
sion, asked the court to issue a
writ nf mandamus which would
force the company to go back to
its old schedule. Action is expected
some time next week.
If the request is granted, the
company would have to put back
10 runs each weekday to bring its
schedu es to 37. No date tor me
hearing on need for the service
has been set.
The court action is not an appeal
from a circuit court decision here
which refused to grant thePUC

company. It is a separate action.

British Airmen
Finish First Leg
Of Ocean Flight
NEW YORK Wl Two British
airmen, trying for a round trip
across the Atlantic in one day. put
down their twin-jet plane here
Monday morning, ate a hurried
and early lunch and then started
streaking back to London.
The fliers landed at Floyd Ben
nett Field at 8:48 a.m., 7 hours
and 31 minutes after taking off
from the London Airport.
They left for home at 9:23 a.m.
and hoDed to make the return
flight in 6 hours and 10 minutes
in time tor a leisurely, ana sugniiy
late, dinner. That would get them
back at 9:15 p.m. London time.
Their westward crossing time
was almost on the nose with their
expectations. They had aimed to
make it in Vh hours, with tail
winds cutting their return time by
an hour.
That would mean a 14-hour trip,
covering 6.820 miles.
The fliers, pilot John Hackett
and navigator Peter M. Penny,
were flying a photo reconnaisance
version of the Royal Air Force'
Canberra jet bomber.
Although a round trip over the
Atlantic in a single day was made
in 1952, it was over a different
route from Northern Ireland to
Gander, Newfoundland and back
2,766 miles shorter than the London-New
York course.

When a complete line of matric

to the face of a mold, and, in the
casting process, hot molten met
