The theme of the three day circuit assembly which officially opens Fri day at 7 p.m. Is ,"The Right Kind Of Ministers," based on 1 Tim. 4:8 "By giving these advices to the brothers you will be a right kind of minister of Christ Jesus, one nour ished with the words of the faith and of the right teaching which you have followed closely." (New World Trans.) Volunteer witnesses are busy hammering and sawing and, meas uring and nailing as they build the stage and set up the tables for the cafeteria.

First federal savings LOAN ASSOCIATION -t MAIN Private Use Methods of traffic control for private planes using the Klamath Falls Municipal Airport after the activation of the Air Force let Interceptor base were discussed Wednesday night at a meeting of city officials, Air Force officials and private pilots. The meeting, held at the pilots' louuee at the airport, was spon sored by the Klamath Air Search and Rescue Unit. The main objection, made by both private pilots and crop dust ers, was against the requirement that all planes using the airport must be equipped with two-way radio for contact with the control tower. The objectors claimed that other airports used as bass for both private and military Jot air crnit did not have such require ments. . EXAMPLES CITED Examples cited were Boise. Port land. Oakland and Seattle's Boe ing Field. , Farmer Facing Check Charge Fred A.

Schleferstein, 21, Klamath Falls. .IKItl Of KF Airport Mayor Paul Landry stated that the Air Force had demanded the radio requirement be included In the lease from the beginning, and said that the reason advanced was the safety problem of very high speed J6ls and very low speed private planes in the same air. Lt. Col Robert Larson, Air Force senior project officer at the base, said he was unable to change the requirement, but that if th'e pilots, the city and local Air Force of ficials, could agree on a recom mended system, he would be glad to submit lt to higher authorities. Crop dusters indicated that they could not equip their planes with radios because oi the weight prob lem and the corrosive nature of the cnemicals they carried. How ever, one duster pilot admitted that dusters constituted a "special case," and said that there were not many duster planes which used the field. , TOWER OPERATION A Civil Aeronautics Administra tion official present said that the CAA, which -would operate the i tower, would not deny a plane the privilege of landing because of lack of a radio "because you never know what's going on In the plane" and that the enforcement of radio requirements would be up to the city. He said that equipment to trans- Judge Sentences Cook to Jail Douglas Seymour. 36year-old cook, was in the county (all Thurs day to serve 120 days for leaving the scene of an accident without giving his name and address and driving a motor vehicle while his operator's license was suspended.

Mayor Landry said that the Air Force's decision to lease a part of the field had taken a "white elephant" off the city's hands, and that a profitable airport would en able the city to provide better service for all pilots private, commercial and military using the field. , He said 'that "we are genuinely Interested in keeping all of you operating here," and added, "I hope we don't have to kill a few people to find out what is good for us." ALSO DISCUSSED' Also discussed at - the meeting was a proposal for runway barriers to be installed by the Air Force on the long runway, which wili be 10,000 feet when the present extension program Is completed. Private pilots expressed approval of the device, which would provide a means to keep Jet planes which overshot the runway or had brake trouble from going off the end of the runway. . Robert Moore, local station man ager for West Coast Airlines, said that the aircraft used by his com pany probably -would "land long" and not use the full length of the runway. The barrier, he said, would not interfere with this pro cedure. Larson said that the device would be located on the "over-run" at the end of the runway, and that that portion of the runway would be marked to indicate the presence of the device. He said there were several types of barrier, and that he did not know which type would be installed here. KASRU President Ed Scholer named Dave Zumwalt as the chair man of a three-man committee to study problems of the relationship of private fliers to the Air Force and methods employed by other airports to handle the problem. Zumwalt is to report at the next meeting of the organization.
