These Air Force officers milk-toasting their remodeling proj tct are Capt. Arnold E. Koneria, left, and Lt. Col. Lloyd W. LeMay. Even base Command er Col. Jack Williams donned unmilitary duds to pound a few nails. Kingsley Field Officers Pitch In To Renovate Club Officers of Kinzley Field will iport a modern club next work be cause of their own ingenuity and hard work. During the pat six works, mem hers of the base Officers' Open Mess hae pitched in with ham mers, saws and ideas lo give Iheir 14-year-old club building a much needed face lifting. "The building hadn't been remod eled since it w as built for the Navy in 194.)." 1st Lt. John I,. Gen tile, who served as architectural engineer and construction super- Visor for the project, said, "the place looked like a big barn or a gymnasium." Lieutenant Gentile a graduate of the L'nilrd States Naval Academy at Annapolis, con ceived the plans which will change a large 40x50-fool area into three smaller and more serviceable rooms. , . He explained that the Officers' Open Mess is a self supporting voluntary -association. The Air Force provides a building and a club officer or manager but Ihc members bear the entire financial burden, the lieutenant said. The club's Board of Governors, under the direction of Lt. Col. John J. Scott, voted on a complete ren ovation ol the club several months ago. The board realized that enough money was not available to let the job out to a contractor The solution was to purchase sup. plies and materials locally and ap peal to club members to provide the necessary manpower. "The response was gratifying, Lieutenant Gentile said. "We had officers working five nights a week and all day Saturdays. Every col onel on the base has helped on the job including Col. Jack W. Wil liams, base commander." Lieuten ant Gentile singled out Lt. Col. Lloyd W. Le.May, Maj. Carl II. Vineyard, Capt. Arnold E. Kon eria and honorary club member Elton' Smith for the extra time and effort they spent on the project. Smith is manager of the Town and Country Branch of the United States National Bank. An open house and party will be held in the club next Friday night to celebrate completion of the re modeling. Guests will see a ma hogany bar area, a lounge and a decorated dance floor. Mrs. Le May, a member of the Olficois' Wives Club, has been in charge of Interior decorations. Other im provements in the club are a new Traffic Guided By Reflectors Color coded delineators are be ing used to guide traffic on Ore eon's Interstate highways, accord wc to an announcement made here by W. C. Williams, stale highway engineer. The delineators are white reflec tors mounted on white posts at 200-fool intervals along the right hand edge of through roadways, and yellow reflectors on yellow col ored posts along acceleration and deceleration lanes at interchanges. Easily visible by day, the same delineators are equipped with three Inch prismatic reflectors which, un der normal weather and atmos pheric conditions, can lie seen for a distance of l.noo feet at night when they are illuminated by the upper beam of standard automobile headlights. On deceleration and accelera tion lanes and the ramps of inter changes the delineators ate spaced at jui-iooi intenals. The state highway department paints the posts a bright yellow for daylight recognition, and equips each post with a pair of yellow reflectors or recognition at night. The change from sm;le white lo double yellow reflertois make ii clear to the motorist that he is approaching a point of exit from the freewav, Williams said. He added that triple amber reflectors re used to mark the end ol ac celeration lanrs when entering the freeway. These are placed so the viewer has adequate tune (o ad just to the flow of main highway traffic. , fireplace, a ventilation system, in direct lighting and mirrors in stra legic locations. "Volunteer workers are the backbone of a small club such as curs," club officer 1st Lt. rrcderick H. Potter said. It is a tribute to our 200 club members that we can accomplish projects like this and .still pay the lowest dues in Air Defense Command." "It is our policy to go first class," Lieutenant Gentile said. "V.'e won't stop until the money runs out. Air Travel Nears Quota LAKEVIEW-Passengers taking advantage of the West Coast Air lines' service in and out of Lake view are coming very close to the number per day required to keep the station open, according to Charles Coe, station manager, in giving a report on the number of travelers since the service began on September 15 of this year, The average per day necessary tor station operation here is five persons and during the month of October the numher of local pas sengers boarding was 112, averag ing out to four. During the last 15 days in September there was a to tal of 5.1, and November has had a good start, Coe reports. With the establishment of an in strument approach here, which is hoped for within the next week or two, there will he a better flight schedule assurance. Three flights were missed during the past month because of low overcast, which meant a figurative loss of about 15 passengers. The instrument ap proach will lower the minimum landing from 4,000 feet to !)0() feet A change in schedule on Decern nor l will result in better service for passengers wishing to leave Lakevicw in the morning and re turn that evening. Definite time (or arrival and departure will be announced later. This change is ex peeled to result in an increase in the numher of passengers. At pi es out the advantage of a jet turbo prop in Klamath Kails allows pas sengers In continue to their destin ation through a transfer and with out further charge. The charge from here lo , destination is the same.

LOST TIME REPORT WASHINGTON I LTD More working time was lost because of strikes in September than in any month since June, !l."2, according to Ihe Labor Department. The department reported Thurs day that the steel strike and other work stoppages resulted in 14 mil lion man-days of idleness. SACRAMENTO H'PD-Gov. Ed mund G. Brown will get formal recommendations from the State Department of Water Resources by Jan. 1, I960 on controversial issues connected with Ihe Califor nia Water Development plan. Department Director Harvey O. Banks made this announcement Friday during an Assembly Wat er Committee hearing. Banks de dined to say what he would toll the governor about unjust enrich ment. acreage limitations, power pricing and subsidies for agricul tural water users. But he indicated he was opposed to agricultural subsidies. The subsidy issue came up after John R. Teerink. principal hy draulic engineer for Banks' de partment, told the committee that farmers in the Fresno, Kings and Tulare County areas should be able to pay between $12 and $15 an acre foot for state developed water measures at canalside. But supporters of a state sub sidy have argued that farmers would be unable lo pay this price and would be excused from the state's S1.75O.0O0.0OO water pro gram, which voters must approve November, 10. Farmers in Ihe three county area mentioned by Teerink now pay $3.50 an acre foot for water from the Federal Bureau of Reclamation. During an intermission at Fri day's hearing. Banks was asked about Ihe conflict in payment cap acity rates. He agreed that his department's estimate argued strongly against a subsidy. Asked if he would carry that view to Ihe governor, he replied, you could say that." The committee, headed by As semblyman Carley V. Porter (D- Compton) also heard testimony from William P. Price, general manager for the United Water Conservation District of Ventura County. Price, like two earlier witness es, argued against acreage limi tations on farms whose owners would contract for state water im ported into their districts. "Any attempt to exclude hold ers of more than ISO acres from participation in the importation program would merely mean that they would continue to draw on local supplies to meet their needs without contributing to the cost of the program." Price said. Others speaking against acrea limitations were Richard Johnsen Jr., executive secretary of the Agricultural Council of Calif nia, and James F. Sorcnscn. sec retary and consulting engineer foi the Friant Water Users Associa tion.
