George Washington Thornhill, 30, was killed about 6 p.m. Wednes day, on Oregon State Highway 39, one-quarter mile south of the Ma-lin-Tulclake Junction south of Merrill on the Tulelake artery. Investigating Oregon State Po lice report the victim was fatally injured by an automobile that failed to stop at the scene of the accident. Later a Merrill resident, not yet identified by state police, ap peared at state police head quarters with his altorney to re port he believed he had been in volved in a tram;- ai-Viil. arc still investigating. No charge has been filed. Mrs. Thornhill. in reconstruct- ing the accident, said that the rear left tire had gone flat and that both she and her husband had gotten out, leaving their two imall children, a son, Dustin, and daughter, Marilyn, in the car. Her husband had taken the extra tire and a jack from the trunk, had raised the car and was kneeling to remove the tire lugs when the car began to roll off the jack. Mrs. Thornhill had gone to the rear to lower the jack when she heard a car coming and then heard a thump. When she looked her husband was lying some distance from where he had been. William P. Kendall, deputy cor oner, found Thornhill's body 39 feet from the point of impact when he arrived to return the body to Ward's Klamath Funeral Home. The tamily had been in Klam ath Falls three weeks, en route from California to Washington They had stopped here for Thorn hill to work at odd jobs to ob tain money to continue their jour ney.

City School Revamping Discussed A plan involving reorganization of the city school system is be ing discussed as a possible solu tion to the city's school problems in general and the overcrowded status of KlamaHi Union High School in particular. Under the proposed reorganiza tion, the high school's District 2 boundary would be drawn in to he coterminous with the boundary of elementary No. 1. This would mean that there would be one city school district taking care ot students from grades one through 12 under the iumc boundary lines I hat describe District I. It would be necessary, then. (in- Hie eountv district to nil k llll about 800 high school students that are presently going to Klam ath Union, but who are not with in District 1 boundary lines. A new school building program ihercfore. would not be neces sary in the city and the new district could organize the scnooi system anyway they wished.

Police Report 'Quiet' Halloween It was all quiet on the Hallo ween front Wednesday night, Klamath Falls police reported. well, not all quiet, but relative ly so compared to previous years' escapades by goblins, ghosts and what not. Patrolmen in squad cars needed hip boots after 10 p.m., for those nocturnal "sprites" were out with their wrenches playing hob with cily fire hydrants. Police could well have been garbed in house painter coveralls too. as they in vestigated some "artistic" spray jobs done by the more "creative" sylphs. Patrolmen reported that .they were kept jumping from 10 Survival Facilities Set For Personnel At OT (Continued from Page 1) Four areas of functional respon ibility have been established in the organizational structure with a member of the central command and a field officer assigned to each.

Sawyer commented on that pos- sibiVv following his appraisal of a recent hearing hold in Port land by the Civil Aeronautics Board to study whether flights by West Coast Airlines to certain Eastern Oregon cities should be discontinued 1 Klamath Falls was not among them). Boy's Skull Fractured Neil Bruce Moore, 4-vear-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie E. Moore, 2033 Madison Street, is in Hillside Hospital with a reported skull fracture. The child accompanied his moth er to a local theater for the Sat urday matinee and was standing before a door when it was pushed open by another child. The Moore boy fell to the floor striking the back of his head, ft was at first believed that there was no serious injury. Sunday he became nauseated and complained of severe head pains. X-rays proved there was a basal fracture. He is conscious. He is suffer ing also, it is reported, from an infection which involves a tem perature above normal. Crash Kills Ex-Resident Word has baen received here of 1 traffic accident at Ashland, which took the life Tuesday night, Oct. 30, of a former Klamath Falls resident, C. V. Lybrand. He was 57. Mr. Lybrand lived in Klamath Falls from 1941 to 1930. employed as a timber faller for the Weyer haeuser Company. He also lived for a time at Bly. Funeral services will be Satur day, Nov. 3, at 2 p.m. from the Litwiller Funeral Home, Ashland. Survivors include the widow Doris. Ashland: son, John.

IN EVERY COLOR OF THE RAINBOW! "''"'niiiMUiiii Sawyer represented the cham ber and the city of Klamath Falls at the hearing and, among others, interceded for those Oregon cities w hich could lose their commercial air service as a result of the hearing. The decisions arising out of that hearing will not become known until next spring. Sawyer said. During one of the three days of testimony, Sawyer said he told members of the PUC, which rep resented the state of Oregon at the hearing, of Uie need of a flight connecting Klamath Falls with the Nevada city. Following the discussion. Sawyer said the representatives ot the commission indicated they "were willing to come here and discuss the mat ter." He said further that numerous businessmen and salesmen travel regularly between the two cities and many of them have expressed approval that such a flight should be established, he added. The scheduling of another flight which would leave Portland and arrive here in time so passengers could make connections with the Reno plane would be of further benefit to airline patrons, he sug gested. Sawyer did not predict how many passengers would use the proposed Klamath Falls - Reno flight daily, but he had plenty to say about the number of civilian and military planes which had been flown to and from the air field during Uie past few months. During one month this summer a record number of 6.100 flights were logged at the airport. The figure was well above the 5.800 to 5,900 average number of flights that have been recorded there this year, which, in turn, is consid erably greater than the monthly average of 5,200 for last year. Sawyer is satisfied with the in crease of traffic to the airfield, but steps are already being taken to insure that it will increase even further, he pointed out. Those steps consist of making improvements at the airfield, such as laying new cable and in stalling 130 lights on two runways. In addition, the U.S. Air Force is also erecting new lights on other runways and installing ca ble. In conclusion. Sawyer said that a brochure is being published out lining the advantages of the Klam ath Basin and will be distributed to pilots and various industries. One of the benefits of using the municipal air field is that ex cellent flying weather is almost always prevalent there. In the past three years the weather has been suitable for flying 96.7 per cent of the time. "No other air FURNITURE SALE We're continuing T&C's 7th Anniversary oil this week.

Ihere are over 300 Karl's shoe port in the Northwest can come close to that record," Sawyer said. On another subject. Floyd Wynne, chairman of the local and state affairs committee, lauded the members of the chamber for making contributions in the amount of $1,450 to support the passage of Proposition No. 9 on reapportionment. Wynne's remark followed an appeal made at last week's cham ber meeting during which mem bers were asked to make dona tions to help finance advertising the merits of the bill. Wynne stated that S510 had been donated and was being sent to the committee on reapportion ment. In addition, t'JO had been ' promised and would also be sent to the committee as soon as it was received. Earlier this year, lhe chamber contributed $850 to help defray costs of having the bill placed on the fall ballot. Wymie then commented brief ly on Hie local dog leash proposi tion before seeking a view on the subject from Mayor Robert Veatch. The proposition will be included on the ballot to come before the voters next Tuesday. Mayor Veatch slated flatly that he opposed the measure which had initially been brought before the city council by a citizen's committee. "People should have sense enough to take care of their dogs, but some of them won't do it," he said. The law wouldn't be prac tical "because we would have to double the size of the police force to enforce it." the mayor point ed out. Supervisor Alex Smith of the Wincma National Forest an nounced that some of the $180,000 allocated to the Winema under the accelerated Public Works law would be used to improve and construct badly needed facilities in the Chemult and Chiloquin Ranger Districts. He also stated that the head quarters of the Klamath District Hanger had been moved from its two locations at Eleventh and Wal nut streets and the Federal Building into one office on the second floor of the Veterans Me morial Building. The office of the supervisor of the forest will re main at 411 Main Street, he said. GLASSES ON CREDIT! ii.C Grn Stamps Mtl5tA(OXl COLUMBIAN OPTICAL CO. 730 Main St. stores in the West
