Closed Saturday I Sunday WHITE HOUSE Cornel Ath and Ivy TVA Uses 'Copter For Line Patrol By ALLEN GREEN United Priii International Knoxville, Tenn. -il'PD- The work day of a professional helicopter pilot can be a con stant battle with sunbathers, moonshiners, skittish horses and frightened chickens. AI Marcoux, a transplanted New Englander who began flying planes at the tender age of 14, flew the Himalaya Hump In World War II and has tried Just about every stunt possible with a helicop ter. But his relatively sedate title of Chief Helicopter Pilot and Instructor for the Ten nessee Valley Authority (TVA) has exposed him to a lot of problems he never knew ex isted. Marcoux, based at Muscle Shoals, Ala., is one of two TVA 'copter pilots with more than 10,000 accident-free he licopter flight hours-believed to be a record. He made his helicopter solo flight in 1847 just two hours and 40 minutes after his first lesson started. Befor coming to TVA 11 years ago, Marcoux used hell copters for such things as a mercy mission to iced-in fam ilies off tlie coast of Rhode Island in 1048. On Thanksgiv ing day, 1950, his 'copter car ried the Brown university football mascot-a caged bear cub-and touched down on the football field as a half-time stunt. TVA found a new use for his talents. Marcoux patrols the huge agency's transmis sion lines, provides transpor tation for malaria control spray work, Inspects giant smoke stacks at TVA steam plants, makes air pollution studies and conducts a flying taxi service for a constant stream of prominent visitors at TVA installations. Once near Kentucky Lake he unintentionally flushed a pair of startled sunbathers. A few farmers In remote moun tain areas have taken pot shots at his craft. Once he flew too near a hidden moon shine whisky still and almost relived his wartime days. 'I guess they thought we were revenuers, he said, dui those boys are pretty used to us now. They know we re not Interested In them. Some of them even wave now and then."
