PAGE FOURTEEN HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28. IBM Armories Said Free of Taxes SALEM Wl Cities can't tux Oregon's National Guard armories, Attorney Genera George Neuner ruled Monday. The city of Eugene wants to tax the armory In that city because the city has to go to extra expense 'AIRBORN' Cessna, the airminded cat, poses with her latest edition of flying kittens in the cockpit of a plane at Municipal Airport. . Klamath Airport Boasts State's Only Flying Cat By WALLACE MYERS One afternoon several months ago, an aerial photography plane landed at Municipal Airport here alter cruising over tbe Klamath country for some five hours at 30,000 leet. The pilot and photogra pher were chilled and bushed after their tough trip in the frigid high air. Despite heavy flying garb and oxygen equipment, tbe long high altitude mission had pretty wcu sapped uie two iiiers, . As the pilot- and photographer stood Desme their plane telling out' ers of tbe biting, cold and low oxygen air they had suffered, there came a series of meows and scratching from the big plane's tall section. And then, as the group around the plane watched goggle eyed, a mottled grey and black cat fussily herded live tiny kittens up Into the plane's forward sec tion, calmly stretched out and sounded the feline dinner gong for ner orooa. Cessna, , the hangar cat at the airport is distinctly and stubborn. ly airminded. Archie Davig, oper ator of the Airport Cafe, claims Cessna as his very own. And that's all right with Cessna so long as Archie ' doesn't try and come be tween tne cat and ner beloved planes. Archie toted Cessna borne one day, way over on B if bee street and Cessna almost beat rchw cc& to sue ail pork. So Archie resignedly prepared Cessna a downy bed and in a box In the hangar. That too, Cessna scorned. 8he sleeps and raises her families only in airplanes. Her sec ond litter of little ones born re entry were at home in the cockpit of Betty Cant's plane when the accompanying picture was taken. For awhile, they were comfort ably fixed in the tall section of El don Ault's BT-19; prior to that in viie v apcii7 Duona pianes, an Aircoup; and another time In the Haskin's Ranch Cub. No one knows how many hours Cessna and her kittens hare logged in the air. Unless they search the nooks and crannies of their planes, pilots flying out of Municipal Air port are never quite certain that Cessna and her - little ones arent hitching a ride. Four Oregon Men Casualties WASHINGTON 11 Four Ore gon men were listed Monday by the Defense Department as casual, lies in the Korean fighting. Mlsslnir In action was Army Sot. Albert E.

Marias In policing for affairs, held at the armory. Neuner said the city contended that the armory was taxable be. cause the state gets rentals from Its use. Neuner answered that these rentals to private parlies brings in only a very small amount oi rev enue. ' "The complaint that use of the Eugene armory creates a 'traffic hatard' and requires the detailing of extra city police on Saturday is not impressive to anyone lamii lar with the trafllo problem In Salem due to the use of state buildings, which daily necessitates special police attention at peak periods," Neuner wrote. "Similarly." he continued, "the use of the State Fairgrounds In ShIciu by commerclHl tenants in addition to public exhibitors In creases attendance at those grounds and adds to Salem's cost of managing traflic. Yet such use of the state's property, during and between ses sions of Uie State Fair, does not give tne -city a rignt to assess the state, without specific leglsla live consent, any part of the cost of maintaining police protection or any other municipal services in the fairgrounds area."
