SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6. 1955 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THRCT i ' CYRIL LICY) PALMER o .in - " Then Anyone who examined the record of Cyril L. (Cy) Palmer, Klamath Falls manager tor the United Air Lines, would certainly agree that some of his experiences lend con vincing proof to Lord Byron's con tention that "truth is stranger than liction." For instance, Palmer attended 13 grade schools in four years. He matriculated in such places as Driver Killed Near Gazelle WEED Ira Thomas Thompson. 61, of Mount Shasta, was killed about 8 p.m. Friday when the northbound pickup truck he was driving struck a bridge near Ga zelle and catapulted on to the top of a southbound Pierce Freight Lines truck driven by Robert Glen Cosier, Medford. Thompson's pickup struck the abutment of the bridge and rolling over several times before it bounced on top of the truck, catch' ing fire as It lay on the top of the cab-over freight truck-tractor. As soon as Cosier could bring the truck to a stop he attempted to pull Thompson from the cab of his pickup but was unable to rescue him. The Siskiyou County coroner aid that Thompson died from spi nal injuries. Cosier suffered a brok en hand and is being treated in the Siskiyou General Hospital, Yreka. Thompson Is survived by his mother, three brothers, and one Bister. Funeral services are pend ing with the Girdner Funeral Home, Yreka, in charge of arrangements. EARTHQUAKE EUREKA (UP) A mild earth quake that rattled dishes but caused no damage was felt here at 8:47 p.m. last night. Havana, Cuba and In various schools In Florida, Texas and Georgia. However, he started high school in Kansas City and was graduated there. Palmer's ambulatory educational routine resulted from the fact that his father was traveling salesman covering a wide territory and the lamuy moved around witniim. While Palmer was in his senior year in high school, he became a member of the Auditorium Theater Stock Company in Kansas City and played juvenile roles in such pro ductions as "Forty-five Minutes From Broadway," "Turn to the Right" and the "Servant in the House." SKATING INSTRUCTOR During the same period, he worked as a skate boy In the Coliseum Skating Rink in Kansas City and later spent a couple ol years as a skating mstructor. In 1916, Palmer enrolled in the University of Kansas but his edu cation was interrupted by a call to service in World War I. At the conclusion of the Euro pean hostilities, Palmer went back to show business. He organized an orchestra known as "Coloradoans" and toured the Middle West. He played the violin. In 1924, Palmer was engaged by Paramount-Publix Theaters to aci as master of ceremonies for stage shows presented in various theaters throughout the Middle West. He still played the violin and often crossed the path of another fam ous fiddler Jack Benny. Movie star Ginger Rogers sang one sea son with his band. FIDDLED AROUND ; "I fiddled around about as long as Benny," Palmer said. "But in 1928, I got out of show business. I believe I can still play the violin as good as BeDny from what I have heard in recent years on the radio." After deserting the footlights, Palmer turned to the business end of aviation for a new career. In 1928. he was employed as field agent at Oklahoma City for Na- Now lional Air Transport. He stayed with that firm until 1931 when it became a part of the newly-or ganized United Air Lines. Palmer has been with United Air Lines ever since. He has acted manager in Toledo, Ohio, Youngstown, Ohio, Fresno, Cali fornia, Twin Falls, Idaho, Salinas, Caiuorma and Klamath Falls. In keeping with his pattern of lite, rainier soon win be on the move again. In a couple of weeks he is slated to return to Salinas as United field manager.
