10,000 in Honolulu Cheer
Newlywed Gables on Arrival ,
Honolulu, Dec 28 U.R) A cheering crowd estimated at more
than 10,000 persons jammed pier 11 Tuesday to welcome the
honeymooning Clark Gables.
The crowd swarmed around the gangplank of the Matson liner
Lurline as the movie star and his bride, Lady Sylvia Stanley,
widow of Douglas airDanKs-
Sr., waved gaily to the mob and
then drove off in a police-escorted
convertible.
A six-man police motorcycle
escort cleared the way as the
greying 48-year-old bridegroom
and his attractive blonde wife
sped off to spend a vacation in
the same rented home in the ex
clusive Kahala district where
another movie star, James Stew
art, enjoyed his honeymoon.
The Gables, who stunned the
movie colony a week ago when
they were married at a dude
ranch near Solvang, Calif., ap
peared blissfully happy as they
chatted with reporters before
leaving the Lurline.
Asked what he received for
Christmas, which the couple
spent at sea, Gable threw his
arms around his bride and said,
. "This . . . the best Christmas
present a man could have."
The couple posed patiently
and with evident good humor
for hundreds of photographs on
the boat deck as the liner slip
ped into the harbor. Both were
bareheaded ana tne mono tress
es of the actor's titled English
bride waved in the early-morning
tradewind.
Mrs. Gable wore a black and
fuschia print crepe dress with
white sandals and a single
strand of pearls. Gable was clad
In a grey business suit.
They described their leisure
ly four-day voyage from San
Francisco as "a most wonderful
trip."
"Everyone aboard was simply
wonderful to us," the bride said
"No one bothered us. They were
all so sweet."
The Lurline's chef baked
them a five-foot wedding cake
Christmas day. That was the on
ly time the dashing bridegroom
and his petite wife, who resem
bles Gable's third wife, Carole
Lombard, ate in the main dining
room.
The couple also attended
Christmas church services
aboard, ship.
.
Slim Hawaiian teen - agers
swam alongside the ship and
Gable emptied his pockets of
coins, which the youths dived
for in the clear blue water.
When Gable ran out of change,
he called for Sylvia's purse and
tossed in all the coins she had in
her handbag.
The couple made no effort to
duck the crowds of shouting,
waving men, women and bobby
soxers. By prearrangement, they were
first off the ship, escorted by six
motorcycle cops who boarded
the ship outside of port.
Both had dozens of flower leis
around their necks when the
ship docked, but threw many of
them to the crowd.
Gable laughed when a report
er asked him if he had any mes
sage for the world now, a ques
tion he ducked in San Francisco.
"Nothing the world doesn't
know already," he replied.
"I'll say this, though," he add-

ed. "If anyone's in love and
wants to go on a honeymoon,
this is the place to come to."
Gable said he planned to go
marlin fishing and also wanted
to play a little golf. Lady Sylvia,
who never had been known as
a sportswoman prior to her
marriage to the screen's best
known "he man," said she plan
ned to go fishing with Gable.

Air Business
Will Go Ahead
The nation's scheduled air
lines should continue to enlarge
their share of the first class
inter-city travel market in 1950
and have even higher traffic
volumes than in record breaking
1949, it was predicted today by
W. A. Patterson, president of
United Air Lines.
In a year-end review and fore
cast, Patterson said the increases
can be expected despite what
probably will be a continued de
cline in the first class travel
market. He estimated that air
travel will account for 46 per
cent of this market in 1950 as
against 436 per cent the past
year.
In the case of his own com
pany, Patterson sees a bright
operating picture for the coming
year. Continued improvements
in regularity and dependability
of schedules will do much to re
duce seasonal fluctuation in air
travel, he said. .
This improved performance
picture together with expansion
of United's Mainliner fleet
should enable the company to
exceed the volume of an estimat
ed 2,247,500 passengers which it
carried in 1949, he added. Grow
ing use of air parcel post should
further increase air mail ton
nages, he said, while air freight
and air express also are expect
ed to show substantial gains.
On almost all counts, 1949 was
one of the most outstanding
years in United Air Lines 23
year history, according to the
company's . year - end review.
While passenger traffic reached
new highs, the company. was able
to operate with increased effi
ciency and economy and at the
same time to achieve marked im
provement in regularity and de
pendability of performance.

Three Men Thought
To Be Snowbound
Ellensburg, Wash., Dec. 28 (P)
Three men, a miner and two
would-be rescuers, were unre
ported today and believed snow
bound at Big Bear mine, eight
miles back in the Cascade moun
tains. Rescue crews battled through
four feet of snow in an unsuc
cessful attempt to reach the
mine yesterday.
The missing men are Bill
Lumsden, Jr.; his brother, Bob,
and Oscar Johnson, a Roslyn
prospector.
The trio was to have returned
to Roslyn Friday, but none of
the group has been seen since
the brothers started into the
mine last Wednesday to accom
pany Johnson out for the holidays.

Old Dog Collar Found Sunday, Gordon setter, owned by
former Gov. Oswald West before the turn of the century,
whose collar bearing the inscription, "Sunday, No. 131, Os
wald West" was found recently by a city crew cleaning the
sewer lines. The collar was located in the pipe on Hickory
street.
Os West Tells About Sunday,
Best Bird Dog He Ever Owned
When city crews recently found the collar of "Sunday," a Gor
don setter owned many years ago by a former Oregon governor,
Oswald West, they brought back vivid memories to West of the
dog that undoubtedly is remembered by a number of old timers.
West, who has been sent the collar bearing the inscription,
"Sunday, No. 131, Oswald West,"
by A. J. (Tony) George, on
learning that the collar had been
found, immediately remember
ed "Sunday" as the "best hunt
ing dog that ever showed up
in Marion county."
Checking through old pictures
West found a picture of the
setter with information on her
birthdate. This brought back
other recollections of the dog
included here:
" 'Sunday', my Gordon setter
bitch, was born February 15,
1892. I bought her from Glenn
and Carrol E. Hughes, who were
then local agents for, I think, the
New York Life.

dogs in a lifetime, but never

Bush's bank she would find it
little lonesome at home and
often would hit it for down town
where she would pick up Orin's
trail and follow it until she lo
cated him.
"Orin had sleeping quarters
over the old "White Corner"
now occupied by Lawyer Roy
Hewitt. It was a stormy eve
ning and Sunday was quite
neavily with pup. Orin, not
wishing to send her home in
such a storm, took her, as he
often did, up to his room.
"The next morning, smoking
his over-sized pipe, he came in
to the bank and informed me
that Sunday was up in his room.
1 asked why he didn't send her
home and his excuse was that
she had pups the night before.
"So I had to take time out
from the bank to cart the dog
mother and her offspring out
to our home."

was never given instructions.
She, at all times, knew just

West recalled that the dog,
after he went to work at Ladd
& Bush bank, used to become
lonesome for him and turned
to Orin Barker for company.
Remembering this he said:
