EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Friday, Sept. 21, 1962 Page 9A -1 Need for Better Facilities Cited Pilots Rate Eugene Airport Lack of restaurant facilities and convenient transportation to Eugene were cited by Oregon pilots in a aurvey as the major reasons they don't use Mablon Sweet Municipal Airport more often. Results of the survey sent to 2,500 Oregon pilots have been compiled by Lloyd Castner, administrative assistant to the Eugene city man ager. Of the 733 pilots who returned the completed questionnaires, 565 of them said they have vis ited Mahlon Sweet on at least one occasion and 432 of them either In 1961 or this year. A total of 268 pilots said they would make more frequent visits if better facilities were available. Of those using Mahlon Sweet, 363 or 64 per cent, said they came here for business reasons. The pilots were asked to list what they con sider the five most important services to be pro vided by a fixed base operator at an airport, regardless of whether they have visited Eugene's airport. The survey indicated the pilots consider, in this order, these services the most important: gas fueling, repair and parts service, transporta tion to the city center, restaurant facilities and tie-down assistance. Pilots were asked to rate a number of facili ties at the airport. These included: Pilots lounge: excellent, 13; good, 75; fair, 71; poor, 153; no answer, 253. Ramp and taxiway lighting: excellent, 102; good, 159; fair, 50; poor, 39; no answer, 215. Safety measures: excellent, 103; good, 180; fair, 43; poor, 24; no answer, 215. Weather bureau: excellent, 331; good, 110; fair, 6; poor, 5; no answer, 113. Fixed base operator: excellent, 43; good, 149; fair, 110; poor, 68; no answer, 195. Transportation to city center: excellent, 8; good, 31; fair, 92; poor, 213; no answer, 221. (A number of pilots expressed "strong discontent" and said there is a need for a courtesy car or in expensive rentals.) Gas fueling service: excellent, 74; good, 203; fair, 101; poor, 38; no answer, 149. Repair and parts service: excellent, 28; good, 67; fair, 79; poor, 43; no answer, 348. Pilot training: excellent, 27; good, 48; fair, 36; poor, 22; no answer, 432. (Many of the transit pilots were unable to express an opinion on this phase of service.) Hangar space rental: excellent, 5; good, 22; fair, 40; poor, 71; no answer, 427. (Only two Lane County pilots rated the hangar space fa cilities as excellent while 32 said they are poor.) Restaurant facilities: excellent, 1; good 8; fair, 18; poor, 231; no answer, 307. (Actually, there are no restaurant facilities at Mahlon Sweet at this time.) Radio aids: excellent, 216; good, 149; fair, 19; poor, 16; no answer, 165. Tie-down facilities: excellent. 29; good, 90; fair, 73; poor, 144; no answer, 229. Condition of runways: excellent, 226; good, 159; fair, 12; poor, 6; no answer, 162. Castner said the survey was taken to help in "more accurately planning the future facilities and services offered at the airport." A $950,000 bond issue for airport improve ments will be before Eugene voters on the No vember general election ballot. Feature Times FRIDAY FOX Ltd, A Dog, 11:3(1. 4, 7:5(1. 11.

Flemming, pfesi dent of the University of Ore gon, issued a statement this week urging all campus living organizations to select members Two More Burglaries Reported The number of burglaries committed in Eugene late Wed nesday night or early Thursday rose still higher with reports of two more coming into police headquarters later Thursday. One was at the Amazon Mar ket, 1815 W. 11th Ave., from which $425 in currency and checks was taken. The money was stolen from the owner's of fice, police said. Also entered was Pohll's Mar ket, 18th Avenue and Chambers Street. The burglars, who forced a door, took a cigar box con taining 53 silver dollars. The box containing the money was found later, however, with discarded loot from a burglary at Christensen Pharmacy, 1740 W. 18th Ave., across from Pholl's. Police said the burglars apparently stopped in a field behind the pharmacy to sort out the loot, keeping some $600 taken from the pharmacy's safe and leaving about $300 worth of checks and other items. Another burglary the same night was at Universal C1T Credit Corp., 3045 Royal Ave., outside the city. Burglars pried open a small safe and took about $120 in petty cash.

He noted that the Board of Higher Education has directed both the University of Oregon and Oregon State University to withdraw recognition of any fraternity or sorority after Jan. 1, 1963, if the organization's na tional charter at that time re quires local chapters to restrict membership on the basis of race or religion. Flemming stated: "Some may say, now that we are about to achieve the objec tive set forth by the Board of Higher Education, 'that is good enough.' "The university rejects that point of view: we will never be satisfied until by their deeds our living groups demonstrate that there is no discrimination based on race, color, nationality or creed. "Unless they do demonstrate it, they are standing in the way of this university'i achieving its highest potential. "I know that there are many of our students who support whole heartedly this concept and I want them to know that they can count on any support it is possible for me to give them.

Molly Holt of Creswell, who helped in the collection drive, said she has received letters from the Chinhae Baby Home; from Masan So Hwe, another baby home; and Masan Young Shin Orphanage. Chinhae and Masan are both cities near Eugene's sister city of Chinju. Mrs. John Kendricks, wife of a U.S. naval officer at Chinhae and an acquaintance of Miss Holt's, helped see that bags of items sent from Eugene reached the orphan ages. , Most of the material was sent to Chinju orphanages, the Sungkah Orphanage at Pusan, and the Holt Orphan age at Seoul. Miss Holt, a nurse who worked at various Korean or phanages, attended the Uni versity of Oregon the past year. She said Thursday she will attend the University of Oregon's School of Nursing in Portland this year, but plans to remain active in Korean orphanage work. She said she will return to Eugene for meetings of the board of the recently-formed Korean Or phan Fund. UO Foreign Student Advisor Appointed Howard L.
