E LIGHTS NIGHT SKY Burning of slashings last night at the new site for bureau of air com merce vertical radiating towers at tracted several hundred persons who thought a big fire had occurred. The burning created a vast reflec tion which appeared near to town and many thought the administration building at the municipal airport was on fire. The radio tower Bite Is three miles north of the airport and about three-quarters of a mile off the Mid way or Table Rock road. For weeks R. I. Stuart & Sons has been clearing the site but the burn ing of slashings was not permitted because of hazardous weather. A per mit was granted for the burning last night. With the clearing practically com pleted on the 8-acre Bite, the erection of five 125-foot steel towers will be started within a few days, it was stat ed by Gordon H. Pascos, In charge of the bureau of air commerce radio station at the airport. The Dixie Electric Construction company of Boise, Idaho, has the contract and the company has been assembling equipment at the site the past few days. The work should be completed by the end of this month, Mr. Pascoe said. The new towers will replace those south of town near the Voorhles crossing. The present towers will be left where they are for the time being but later may be used at some other i place. The vertical radiating towers are ; used In the bureau's radio beam and broadcasting system, controlled here at the airport. With erection of the new towers an Improvement will be utilized whereby the direction range and the oral broadcasting of woather and instructions may be done simul taneously without one Interrupting the other as at present. The four corner towers will radiate the radio beam which gives pilots, their bearings while the Inside tower will broadcast the weather and other announcements, It was explained by Mr. Pascoe. If a pilot Is more inter ested In the beam, he can filter out the broadcast and thus procure his bearings without Interruption, Mr. Pascoe said. On the other hand a pilot who is more concerned with in formation contained In the broadcast can filter out the beam. At present the beam and broad caste alternate, one being off when the other Is on. The towers have no antennae strung TOMORROW & FRI.
