Seek More Service
The announcement of the two
day survey came hard on the heels
OF an important meeting of the
Wilmington-New Hanover Airport
authority yesterday morning. In
a concentrated effort to get more
interstate air service routed
through Wilmington, the authority
voted to send Maj. Henry E. Boyd,
traffic manager of the Wilmington
Port Traffic association, and Air
port Manager Jesse c. Parker, Jr..
to Washington on August 26 to at
tend the Civil Aeronautics boards
hearing on the celebrated South
eastern States airlines case.
Although three North Carolina
airlines ~ State, Seaboard. and
Southeast - are competing for the
new air routes, the two-man dele
cation will not plug" for any par
ticular one. Rather, they will de-
mand that Wilmington be given
adequate and efficient air serv-
ice commensurate with city's
growth as a top seaport power re-
gardless Of which airlines are
granted the new routes.
Joint Meet Planned
A joint meeting of the authority
and the Wilmington Chamber of
Commerce Aviation committee is
slated to be held soon to confirm
the appointment of Boyd and Park
er as delegates on the Washington
mission. Boyd was selected by the
authority by virtue of his long and
varied experience in matters per-
tanning to public transportation.
Parker was chosen as his co-dele-
gate because of his experience in
the airport business proper.
Further indication of the airport's
growth was disclosed at yesterdays
meeting in Parker's operations re-
port for June and July. A total of
3,240 passengers were handled in
regulariy-scheduled incoming and
outgoing flights, Parker said, which
does not include the hundreds who
used the field in special charter and
training flights.
Overseas Route
This Is termed a mere handful"
however, compared with the antici-
pated traffic at the field when the
new airlines are granted routes.
Among the routes in the offing is
one which would link Wilmington
with Bermuda and the Caribbean.
Parker further revealed that the
equipment of the VIII very high
frequency radio has finally been
moved to the installation building
about five miles north of the field.

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH
Discovered by Odd Fellows at
Birthday Party Last Week

At the birthday party of Mr.Wil-
liam H. Lurty, "a years old last
week, a debate took place: Re
solved that Life Begins at 40" at
the Odd Fellows Hall. The men,
bership, as judges, decided in favor
of the affirmative, debated by H. C.
Johnson and Morgan L. Parry.
These two gentlemen, with Mr..
Lurty and many others past 40,
are overjoyed at their newly-found
youth, including C. A. Burrous,
who, with William E. Matthews,
Jr., debated the negative side. The
latter appears dazed to learn that
he has not as yet reached teen age,
and those under 40 are wondering
if they are yet unborn or perhaps
living upon another planet. 1t
seems that the wisdom of, or dis
covery made by the Odd Fellows
has at least revived thought if not
youth.
