at this which has applied for q
route which would serve this en-.
tire territory.
The Great Northern Air Lines
is a western company organized
by Ed Klies of Great Falls, Mont,
Mr.. KIies and his associates are
all western business men who
who know the needs of tho west.
The proposed air line is believ-
ed to be the only case where a
trunk line has offered q real local
service to the smaller communi-
ties along its main line.
This has been proposed because.
of the obvious community of in
terest between these areas served
and the large trade centers such
as Chicago and Seattle, which are
the terminals Of the airline.
When asked for his opinion
concerning the possible outcome
of the decision OF the board, Mr.,
Klies, president of the company,
made the following statement.
I'VE have collected and veri.
fled a great many facts which
amply demonstrate the need for
such service as the Great Nor
thern Air Line proposes to give.
We also feel that we have proved
that our company will be able to
give the best service. All of this
material has been placed before
the Civil Aeronsutics Board. Now
it is up to the people in this ter
ritory to indicate to the board by
wiring or writing their govern.
ment representatives. that they
desire the installation of such
service. After the board has ex-
amined the facts which We have
presented to them, it will be de-
sires and needs of the communi.
ties involved upon which they
base their decision concerning
the granting of this SERVICE"

Hearing of the application to
the Civil Aeronautices Board by
the Great Northern Air Lines
for operation of an air service be-
tween Chicago and Seattle has
been set for June 3rd in Wash.
ington D. c.
Great Northern Air Lines in
tends to demostrate that q certi-
fcate of necessity and convent
ence should be granted to them
because their proposed operation
will best serve the needs of the
people IN northern Minnesota,
North Dakota, Montana and
Washington. The greater part of
this territory is without air ser
vice of any kind at the present
time.
That the inauguration of such
an air line would greatly increase
the existing transportation and
mail service to all communities in
this territory is demonstrated by
policy adopted by the Great Nor
thern Air Lines in cooperation
with the Great Northern Rail-
road. Air schedules of the pro-
posed line have been arranged so
that mail from Chicago or Seattle
to the towns located on the rail-
roads branch lines in Montana
and North Dakota will arrive
whole day earlier.
These schedules would make
connections with over 10 trains
in the tertiary between Duluth
and west Montana lines. In this
territory alone, there are over q
million people whom the COM
pany. feels, should be entitled to
air service equal to that in the
southern parts of these states.
The Chamber of Commerce in
Minot, N. D. and Havre, Mont.
feel the need of such service to
such an extent that they have
passed resolutions filmed da
brief with the Civil Aeronautics
Board showing the needs of nor
thern North Dakota and Mon
tana. The Board recognized their
request and granted them per-
mission to intervene and become
a party to the hearing.
Senator Burton K. Wheeler of
Montana. chairman of the Inter-
state Commerce Committee has
asked the Civil Aeronautics Board
to approve a new air route serv-

what was also the final game of the
YMCA basketball tournament.
Brown not only led the scoring
but was the outstanding player on
the floor as he broke up the older
YMCA boys offensive with his
ball-hawking tactics.
Billy Lee, senior sharp-shooter
for Coach Leon Brogden's team
was runnerup with 10 points while
the YMCA was led by two seven
point shooters, Kelly and Gerton.
The Cats finished the first quar-
ter leading the losers by the mar.

jumped the lead at halftirne, to
Is to Is and were leading at the
end of the third stanza by the mar

Possibilities that the erection of
"a home run fence" at American
Legion stadium for the coming
Tobacco State league season were
brighter this morning following
actions of the county board OF CON-
missioners at their meeting yes
terday.
The stadium improvements are
slated to get underway as soon as
labor and materials are available,
Chairman Addison Hewlett said.
The absence of fence at the
stadium would deprive local fans
Of one the biggest thrills of the
diamond sport-the four Dagger.
Because of the layout at the
stadium at present, fleet outfield-
ers can hold almost any lclg-
distance cloutt to double or a
triple. With the erection of a fence,
the home-run would become a dis.
tinct possibility.
The concession problem was set

Measure Now Needed

WASHINGTON, March II. -W.D

Hannegan journeyed to the cap
itol Monday to tell Democratic
Senators that President Truman
wants a 65-75 cents an hour mini
mum wage bill enacted without de-

The conference took place in the

flee building.
Murray Presides
With Chairman James E. Muir
ray. D., Mont, of the Senate Edu-
cation and Labor committee pre-
siding, flanagan said that Mr..
Truman believes the measure is
necessary. 1t would hike basic
wages from their present Accent
national level to IS and rs cents
over a four-year period.
Also on hand was Secretary Of
Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach.
Hannegan told the Senators that
a minority proposal for a $500

ceptable, in view of higher living
costs, present and anticipated.
No Message

Democrats who are favorable to

Pitcher
Calls Williams Best
BY JACK HAND

HAVANA, March II. -R-P aal
Schneider, fellow who has thrown
more home run balls than any
other pitcher, thinks Ted Williams
is the best lefthanded hitter he ever
has seen.
Schneider is specialist in that
sort of thing, not just another run
of the mill batting practice pitcher.
He is the lean Highlander who
made a life's work out of having
his pitches hit into the distant
stands.
That was back in the old days
with the powerhouse New York
Yankees who used to entertain the
customers and overawe the op-
position with heavy barrage OF
l o'clock homers.
Nobody will ever know" laugh
ed Schneider who now belongs to
the Boston Red Sox. "But I'll bet
1 threw more home run pitches
than anybody. can laugh about it
too because that's what / got paid
| for.
'Those other guys 60 out there
day after day worrying about hav-
ing one pitch slammed over the
wall. Me I'm just the happiest
man around when they start teeing
off on me. That means I'm in the
groove.
"It may seem strange for a
pitcher to say it but I got big
kick out of the way those Yankees
used to hit me. Now I get the
same kick out of Williams. For
my money he is the best hitter and
Joe Dimaggio is the best right
handler. I wouldn't want to say
which one is better"
Last year the Yankees put
Schneider on the active list and he
played in two or three games, as
a pitcher at the age OF 43, over
20 years after he thought he had
said goodbye to the majors as a
game pitcher.
The Yanks were in Detroit and
Jim Tobin and his flutterbill had
been making them look silly. Man
ager Joe Mccarthy was furious as
he stormed into the clubhouse.
"Can any of you guys throw a
knuckle ball." he hollered.
The only hand raised was owned
by Schneider. That's how he got
back on the active list but he's oil
now and doesn't want to return.
Just before time to report fol-
spring training Schneider was cut
loose by the Yanks. The news was
pretty much of a secret between
Paul and the management for the
release came during the telegraph
strike and escaped the papers.
Schneider wired various clubs
but found they had made theil
plans. Finally Manager Joe Cronir
of Boston heard Of his plight ane
hired him without a seconds delay
The old timer probably is the
only pitcher you can think of who
