"Packages by Pegasus was the title of a film shown at Tuesday's luncheon meeting by Harold Allen, San Fran cisco, who heads the air serv ice division of REA Express for the Pacific Region. The former American Rail way Express entered into the new fields of express by air, Allen told Rotarians, and combined services and facili ties with those of 40 domestic airlines. First air express service was initialed in 1927. Before showing the film, Allen said that today REA Exprc; serves more than 21. 000 off-line communities with express service. Everything from machinery and tools to fresh crab, flowers and blood are transported by air today. been approved by the county engineer but to be on the safe side regarding certain appar ent weaknesses in the present ! structure, the court consulted the structural engineer. The ceiling construction over the ground floor of the auditorium is capable of sup porting a live load of from 110 to 123 pounds per square fool, Hoey wrote. The uniform building code requirement is 50 pounds. The library requirement, which refers to a much great er load than is represented in the county recorder's offices, which are now over a portion of the auditorium, is only 123 pounds, the report stated. The court's plans are to en large the auditorium by re moving the obsolete, unused rest rooms near the entrance to the auditorium and by a rearrangement of the stage. Accoustical tile will be in stalled and electric lighting modernized. Referring to the desired re modeling of the district court room, Hoey said he would hcsiUle to recommend moval of the column, which obstructs the view, adding that if it were removed another type of support would have to replace it. The third item included In the planned remodeling is construction of a room in the breezeway between the old and the new court house structures. This addition was approved by the structural engineer. v It will not only add needed space to the courthouse but will provide a protection against the cold air between both structures whenever doors are opened, County Commissioner Don Faber em phasized in a tour of the area. u Don't let Iheie priest tears you off, these) ars good low cost cart and trucks.
