AIRPORT USE LAKEVIEW, March 23 A upecial meeting of the town council was called Tuesday night ior further discussion in the matter of applying for an in terim permit to allow civilian vise of the local airport which is still under lease to. the navy department. At this meeting an operators' agreement, between the city and Dale C. Williams and Glen Plato as operators, was drawn up in rough form. This agreement is now in the hands of the city attorney for final drafting, after which it is again to be presented to the city council for approval. The agreement will then go to Williams and Plato for their sig natures. The Lake County Aeronautic association will assist Williams and Plato in many of their duties at the airport under the agree ment proposed. It is believed that all details 311 connection with the agree ment will be completed so that a formal request for interim operation of the airport can be made to the proper governmen tal agency this week. City Action On Airport Recommended (Continued from Page One) made by the four commercial operators to assume expense of an airport manager and to un derwrite any maintenance that might be involved in the use of the airport until such time as the lease is cancelled and the city take over. At this point. Chairman Dunn of the commission advised the city felt it should not apply for the permit until the commission had made' plain to the navy just what it considered due in the way of deferred maintenance. Dunn said the city, through City Engineer E. A. Thomas, was at the present time making a survey at the station to deter mine the needs of the city and that when the survey is complet ed, a claim would be made and at that time the commission would consider applying for des ignation and execution of the permit. Those interested in the situa tion pointed out the Immediate need of requesting from the sur plus properties board, the facili ties the city wants left at the air port such as hangars. In view of the fact that such a request had been held up since last October, the feeling was expressed that while the city should not rush into anything without due con sideration, flying was being cur tailed and the matter should be expedited as much as possible. Mayor Ostendorf told the au dience that the city had no knowledge as to how to proceed in requesting the facilities need ed from the surplus properties board. At tliis point, the chamber group advised that one Oregon airport had permitted flying without proper management, that two fatalities had resulted before the field mentioned was on a supervised basis and such a situation could develop here. Zeno Dent, representing the veterans administration, stated that at least 50 or 100 veterans had made application to the VA for flight instruction under the GI bill of rights. No school can be in operation for instruction until the airport is designated, it was pointed out, although such a school would be a source of revenue as far as the city is con cerned. Mayor Ostendorf ex pressed the opinion that this would not provide sufficient rev enue to operate the airport and would not be ample reason for the city to take over the respon sibility of the operation. Chamber representatlv.es agreed on this point but ex pressed the opinion that this source, combined with all others once flying was opened, would offset any expenditures on the city's part.

Caillier, CMoMM, USN, will be in Lake view from Monday noon to Tues day noon on recruiting duty. Anyone interested in joining the navy may contact him at the Lakeview hotel.
