Is Good Travel Guide
By Jacques FutreIIe, Jr.
The Stort Travel Editor

Happily for themselves (and the
envy of the more timid. less in
genious traveler) there are Ameri-
cans who have a flair for travel.
Being of practical and resource
full nature, they can revise and
improvise plans to meet emergen-
cies that arise on trips. and give
an enjoyable turn to a momentary
disappointment.
The urbanity of such travellers
sometimes comes to light in the
most commonplace incidents-a
delayed airliner, for instance. A
story New York businessman
tells his friends serves to Illus
trate. More in the way Of recalling
a pleasant evening. he relates an
incident that carries moral for
those travellers who stew in their
own Illustrations when plans mis-
fire.
A New Yorker, he was flying
from a Midwestern city to Wash
ington on urgent business. Per-
haps as much as any one on the
plane, he was in a hurry. Finally.
the motors sputttered into life
for the takeoff. One engine didn't
act to the satisfaction of the pilot.

and demanding to know
when they would get away. Even

and replies were vague.
The businessman stood to one
side, by himself, and looked on
philosophically.
He was approached by another
passenger, with the observation
that he must not be in a hurry.
But am" replied the busi-
nessman. Il should be in Wash

at the ticket counter. where his

undertook to explain the role of
the travel agent in tightening the
burden of preparation for a trip.
The theme boiled down to the
point-and 1t still holds-that
whenever one steps off a familiar
beaten path. 1t is appropriate to
consider using the services Of a
travel agent. That is particularly
true of foreign travel. And 1t is
particularly true. too, Of most
travellers.

says a slogan appearing under

of the reading matter expands on
the theme.

you can make your plans and ar
rangements yourself. Perhaps, if

Increased Sixty Percent This Year
Sanduskian Reported Interested In
Lease Privilege OF Airport Facilities

In the absence of an official re-
port concerning a ruling by the
CAA on proposed improvements
for the Port Clinton Airport, city
council Tuesday night gave con-
Sideration to report that San
dusky aviation representative is in
terested in leasing or renting IA
cilities at the local airport.
The report was made by John
Zetzer, who maintains his private
planes at the port. He said the
SanduSkian is interested in oper-
ating small flying school, and
desires facilities to operate other
types of planes.
He has offered, according to
Zetzer, to maintain for service,
such portions and facilities at the
airport which might be assigned
to him by the city, freeing the
latter of any cost or liability.
Council was informed that an
insurance clause in an existing
contract with Air Service Inc.
has been discontinued.
Councilman Charles Ruddock
moved that "Since the insurance
clause covering operations at the
airport under the management
contract, is not being maintained
Air Service, Inc, should be noti
fed of voidance of the present
contract"
Council adopted the motion
agreeing that the matter Woule
be taken up for further discus
sion at the next meeting in Octo
Der.
The Sanduskian'S overtureS die
not suggest any price consldera
ton, limiting only that the airpor
would be maintained as the cit.
authorities might direct.
