Aged Woman
Likes Plowing
WHITESBURG, Ky. (IP) In
the spring, 103-year-old "Aunt
Jane" Adams' thoughts turn to
plowing.
And as spring and her 104th
birthday approached, those were
her thoughts Wednesday "fol
lowing the old plow and the fam
ily mule around the hillsides just
like I used to do in the long ago."
Aunt Jane" comes from a long
living family. Her 86-year-old
brother, "Uncle Eli" Lucas, re
cently became the father of his
18th child. Her father, Aaron
Lucas, died at the age of 103. Her
grandfather lived to be 105.
"Here I am close around that,
nd years yet to live," she said.
"I'll outgo any of them. I never
felt better In all my life, and
there Is no reason why I won't go
on." .
Her birthday is Feb. 10.

Air Command
Reorganized
.Western Defense
To Be Streamlined
HAMILTON AIR FORCE
BASE, Calif. (U.R The Western
Air Defense Command will be
streamlined with an eye toward
increasing operational efficiency
while reducing expenses by "some
S2.000.000" annually. Command
ing General Donald R. Hutchinson
announced Wednesday.
The Air Force will "further
strengthen and expand" air de
fense power in the 11 western
states, Hutchinson said, by elim
inating some units and manpower
not required directly in air de
fense. Using a recent reorganization of
the 78th Fighter-Interceptor Wing
at Hamilton Air Force Base as a
model, the new set-up to be
started next month will:
1. Establish a single unit term
ed the air base group under each
defense wing.
2. Place "housekeeping and
overhead" groups, such as food
and medical, subordinate to the
air base group instead of each be
ing independent as at present.
3. Eliminate a central group
headquarters for fighter-interceptor,
air rescue and WAF
squadrons, making each respons
ible to the defense wing com
mand. Hutchinson said that other de
fense force commands throughout
the country were carrying out
similar plans as part of a cam
paign by the air force to "deter
mine the most direct and eco
nomical means of carrying out its
responsibilities to the nation
