January If, 1041 THE EVENING HERALD. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON STAR CAROLE LOMBARD ONE OF VICTIMS i (Continued from Pago One) of a ferry command returning to ' the Pacific coast for new assign' ments. TWA said they boarded ' the plane at Albuquerque, where ' four other passengers were put ' off to make room for the pilots. The 21-passenger Douglas Sky club made a brief stop at Las Vegas and took off at 7:07 p. m. (10:07 p. m., EST) about 7:30 p. m. workers at the Blue Dia mond mine saw a flare and heard an explosion. A few minutes later, Pilot Art Cheney of Western Air Lines - saw a fire on Table mountain, about 40 miles southwest of Las Vegas. "It's a TWA plane and I can't find any signs of life," Cheney radioed. He said he turned on his landing lights in an .effort to discover whether anyone was moving about the wreckage. , . The plane crashed more than 8000 feet up Table mountain in the rugged Charleston range. The ground is covered with sev eral inches of snow. Supt. W. T. McMillan of the Blue Diamond mine said the searchers would have to use pack horses for nearly 20 miles of the journey into the Charles ton range, which rises from the Mohave desert floor. Gable, who had been waiting at Lockheed air terminal, Bur bank, Calif:, 'to welcome Carole home, .learned instead.-of the crash. Miss Lombard, 32, was return ing from Indianapolis with her mother. Mrs. Elizabeth K. Peters, and Otto Winkler, publicity man for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio. She had gone there to help sell defense bonds. Gable is chair man of the actors committee which assigns motion picture stars to assist the United States treasury in bond sales over the country. ? Miss Lombard, bora in Fort Wayne, Ind., had volunteered for the trip to her home state. She sold $2,500,000 worth in one day;' Thursday. 'j Hollywood heard that Wink ler preferred to make the trip by train but that the actress in sisted upon an airplane trip. They tossed a coin. Miss Lom bard won and presumably lost her Jife,, '"'.... . r Cap.; Wayne Williams, a vet eran TWA pilot, was at the con trols. He recently had been transferred to the Albuquerque "Los' Angeles run from Kansas City. TWA said he gave no hint of trouble; that the only message received from him after he left Albuquerque was a routine re port. Visibility and weather conditions in the area were re ported good. TWA said its planes had flown 18,000,000 miles 187,000,000 passenger miles since its last fatal crash. Capt Williams had a record of 12,000 hours and 1,500,000 miles in the air. He learned to fly in the army air corps and joined TWA in 1931. He was 41 years old. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 17 CP) TWA said these passengers were on its airliner which crashed near Las Vegas, Nev., last night, but did not give home addresses: Capt Wayne Williams, pilot; Morgan A.

Cement is allowed to set for 1M hours. "Camelback" Next the "camelback." Cam elback is the new rubber blue seal, highest-grade topcoating 1332 of an inch thick for pas senger car tires, 1732 of an inch for trucks. Packed in long strips, camel back is hand-pressed on the buffed, cemented smooth sur face, cut to fit the tire's cir cumference. A smooth joint is made which welds itself in the next process "cooking." Cooking is the zenith of the re-capping operation, the pro cess which merges camelback with the old tire and inseU the tread as it does so. It's accom plished ' by putting the now camelbacked tire into a full mould and cooking it in the same manner in which it had earlier been baked in the sec tion mould. An hour and one-half in the "oven" and it's done. The cam elback has merged with both the old surface and the side wall, making a smooth, even job undlstinguishable from a brand-new tire. Cooking hasn't injured the sidewall whether it be white or standard black, for the heat has been applied only to the running surface. A finishing coat of rubber paint is brushed to both side walls, completely disguising your re-capped tire from that new one which you were, going to get for Christmas. But it takes time. The biggest re-capping house in the city is able to turn out only from 24 to 25 passenger car tires daily and "daily means two eight- hour shifts. The shop is equipped with four full moulds and four section moulds and has ordered more. But what with metal as well as rubber scarcities, it's impossible to foretell when they'll be delivered. Going price for a re-capping job on a standard 6.00x16 tire is $7.50 or $4 for a section. If it's a section and re-cap task, the fee is clipped to an even sawbuck. But what you've got is from 35 to 50 per cent new rubber and a tire which should give you mileage equal to a new one providing the casing is not weak. There's a difference in re capping and re-treading, accord ing to the boys in the business. It used to be re-treading only and that meant that all old rub ber right down to the cord was scraped off whether the tire needed it or not. It once was considered neces sary in order to make the cam elback stick. Now. however, only enoueh old rubber is buffed awav to leave a smooth surface for com plete adhesion of the camelback. What remains on the carcass is velvet, both for you and the army. It means the Job can be done with less rubber and with out detracting from the efficlen cy of the finished product. Advanced methods have done it. The result Is re-caDDlna in place of re-treading. But give the boys a chance. folks. They're doing th? best they can under forced draft and, like the lads across the water, meyn eaten up when they get the tools. Married men are agreed that what this country needs is a fire department that will come out and build a fire In our furnace. (Continued from Page One) separates Singapore Wand from the mainland.

Ausiies Hit Domel, the official Japanese news agency, declared that Jap anese troops reached the Bnlu Pahat sector at dawn today, with a spearhead of. mechanized forces striking down the west coast of Johore state from Malacca Straits settlement. In fighting near Gemas, north east of Malacca, Domei said Jap anese troops had wiped out half of an Australian force of 1000 men. In the Philippines, a war de partment bulletin reported that "a heavy Japanese attack is now in progress" against the right flank of Gen.
