PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, JULY 3, 1342. SALVAGE TIRE OF WRECKED PLANE Long Hard Trip To Pilot Rock Made For Rubber Matinee Nets 1,160 lbs. Glen Wade, 13, and Bernle Helms, 17, both of Route 1, Ash land, can rest assured they have done their part in helping the American war effort. Following the discovery June 8 of the wreckage of a U. S. army photographic plane which had months earlier crashed head-on into Pilot Rock in the Siskiyou mountains. Glen and Bernie, like many boys in their neighborhood, made the trip to the scene to satisfy their own curiosity. They remembered that after the army had made its investi gation of the wreckage they threw a blown-out tire down into a canyon. Came the nation's scrap rub ber drive and Glen and Bemie decided America could use that discarded tire. So, in their old car, they drove as far as they could and walked the rest of the way almost three miles through the mountains to reach the tire, then the same distance back to their car. And the tire and hub weighed 43 pounds. Keep Hub The two boys took the tire to the Clarence Homes service sta tion Just south of Ashland, where it was weighed and the youths paid their 45 cents. Al though glad to part with the tire, which they knew would be used in helping lick the Axis, Glen and Bernle decided to keep the mi 3 as souvenir of their hard but worth-while trip. Kenneth Parrett, county chairman of the petroleum com mittee in charge of the scrap rubber drive, s'd today that 1,160 pounds of "very fine" rub ber was collected at the Crater ian theaters Tuesday morning matinee. All of it was in house hold articles with a high rub ber content, Parrett stated.
