One of the trees which was blast ed did not fall. The road crew thought it would stand until Mon day. However, a wind came up and toppled the tree into the circuit.

Few cities have a field so free of hazards to pilots and with continuance of public interest and confidence both the airport and the product of the Everlv Aircraft cor poration will be carried to' a suc cessful conclusion, he said. Recommendations that field boundary lights, three flood lights and a beacon light be Installed as soon as funds are available were made by Hamilton, who announced mat in the near luture a new com' pany was to be engaged in night flying between Portland and San Francisco, with two additional air lines coming into Portland. Mini mum equipment would cost approx imately $2,500. he stated. . Experiments nave been cameo out by the department of commerce with the placing of calcium carbide on fields to help keep down the dust. Good sod fields cannot be excelled however. Hamilton said. Hamilton has been engaged in condemning obsolete craft in Idaho, Washington, Montana, Utah and Nevada and Is completing a survey of Oregon. When found unslr- worthy the department reiuses a license which automatically pro hibits a state from Issuing permis sion to fly. Many fatal crashes are due to this class of machines. That Lee U. Eyerly. .superintend ent of the airport designer and manufacturer, has a plane that is the talk of aviation men along the coast and west of the mountains was the statement of Hamilton, who though he had never seen the machine, had heard much In Its favor. The crasn at Eugene wiu make Eyerly a fortune in that ne will be able to produce a better type of ship, was his opinion. Both Everlv and Hamilton were boyhood friends in Illinois. Hamilton has teen flying since 1915 and has nearly 600 hours of night flying to his credit STOLiKER WINS BOWLING EVENT Virgil Stollker, one ot Salem's best bowlers, waa high soore man In the all events class of the Ameri can.
