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

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

It would be necessary, then.

Chamber Hears Reno Airline
Link Possible For Klamath
The establishment of a commer
cial airline flight linking Klam
ath Falls direct to Reno might
be the outcome of a meeting be
tween members of the Public
Utilities Commission and Joe Saw
yer, manager of the municipal air
port, sometime after Jan. 1, the
Klamath County Chamber of Com
merce learned during its meeting
at the Pelican Cafe Wednesday.
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.

Ex-Resident
Word has baen received here of

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

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
