HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Ore. Sunday. January 10, I960 PAGE 7 A Ex-Brigadier General Marveled God's Work, Now Rector Of Church RED BLUFF. Calif. (API-Lester J. Maitland, who 34 years ago made the first trans-Pacitic flight to Hawaii, has become a different tort of sky pilot. Once Brig. Gen. Maitland, he's now the Rev. Mr. Maitland, rec tor of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in this northern Sacramen to Valley lumbering and livestock town. '1 used to speculate as I flew with two wings, with eight wings. And there were no parachutes. I recall at first we thought they were sissy." Maitland says. "I was in so many crashes I can't remember them. I'd like to feel that I was saved to do the job I have started." p.'s-vvw few FELINE COMFORT Bel gian actor Pix Mullet is shown letting the cat out of the bag in Rome, Italy.

She stuck out her tongue while focusing on the operation that required un divided attention.

The plane, which car ried 106 passengers and a crew of 12, reached speeds of more than 800 miles an hour. WHO IS RIGHT? SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - How many people live in San Francisco? The California Taxpayers As sociation says 790,000 and the city Planning Department last August set the figure at 807,000 San Franciscans. The biggest figure comes from the local Chamber of Commerce which places the city's population at 821,000. over the mountains and the great oceans on the insignificance of man's work and the greatness of God," says the much-decorated aviation pioneer. "I began to see that nothing could be finer than serving Him." This feeling was always there, says Maitland, a vigorous 60, and lifelong member of the Episcopal Church. "It was a long process," he re calls. "I continued feeling that 'This is what I'm going to do.' The feeling kept getting stronger and stronger until I finally decid ed to join the ministry." That was in 1054. He began studying under the Rev. George Selway at St. Paul's in Lansing, Mich., where he was serving as aeronautics commissioner and civil defense director for the state. He took the positions after retire ment from the Army Air Corps in 1945. A period of seminary study fol lowed Maitland's initial work in Lansing, a term of apprenticeship. Then, two years ago, he came here with his wife to take over at St. Peter's. Maitland's main goal now is to enlarge his 350-mcmber congrega tion and to build a mission in this community of about 6,000 people. Before he donned his clerical garb, Maitland's career spanned nearly the entire history of avia tion and brought him many honors including two Distinguished Flying Crosses in World War II. It was a career that began as it ended, in Army war service. In 1917, Maitland left his home in Milwaukee, Wis., at 18 to start out as a test pilot in the fledgling Air Service. JC PREXY "ARRESTED" TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (UPI) -Robert Clark of Des Moines, Iowa, national president of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, was flown here Friday night "un der arrest." Two sheriff's depu ties boarded Clark's plane at Columbus, Miss., and clapped him in handcuffs. It was all a joke, but Clark was not aware of it until the plane stopped at Jas per, Ala., where he received the keys to the city and a reprimand for "planning a trip to Alabama without scheduling a stop at Jasper." When he retired, he left a bomb-. ing squadron that for two years had regularly hit targets in Nazi held Europe with Maitland flying "every mission until they made me quit." How does a general turned min ister feel about his war-making role? "The bombing was an essential job at the time," Maitland ex plains. "That's what I was trained (or. We all have to reconcile our selves to this sort of thing." As for the future, he feels strongly that aviation will help mankind reach peace by shrinking the world and making it easier to get from one place to another. Ultimately, Maitland believes, this will lead to world government. "Communication and transport ation go together," he points out. "We have little trouble with Mex ico and Canada because we're close together and can talk to each other, understand each oth er. "With air travel, we can do this on a worldwide basis and see that people all over the world are hu man just as we are. We can get their viewpoints and they can get ours. "As long as we're talking, we won't be fighting. In the past, we weren't able to do this and we had wars. "Aviation has to help mankind reach peace. If it doesn't, it will destroy the world." Maitland played a significant role in aviation's development, serving as an aide to famed Gen. Billy Mitchell and once, in 1923, snapping the world's speed rec ord: 244 miles an hour. Today, that speed may seem outrageously slow, like the 25 hours and 49 minutes it took Mait land and navigator Albert Ilegen berger to make it from Oakland, Calif., to Hawaii on that record 1926 flight. Although the speeds may not have been exciting by jet stand ards, the dangers were undoubted ly greater in the early days of aviation. "We flew planes with one wing, LADIES!
