He said the size of confined landing area didn't bother him because recently he has been doing a lot of landing in small areas. He said he has been taking the plane up from an area not much bigger.

The rise and fall of the Avro Arrow will be the topic for the January meeting of the Esquesing Historical Society. Ron Page, author of a book on the subject will be the guest speaker at the January 10th meeting. It will take place at the Knox Presbyterian Church in Georgetown at 7:30 p.m. An excerpt from the Nov. meeting. Now before we get started on the old time happenings in Georgetown, I'll never forget back in 1932, I think it was, I was listening to the radio, I was married in 1926 and moved to Town, in 1932 I was listening to the radio and there was a meeting of inventors of the world, they had a meeting in New York and they decided that in 1887 that they had invented everything that you could invent in the world, in 1887. So I thought it would be kind of 'à propos' for the Historical Society to take and read a little thing I come across one time about, it says here, For all those born before 1945 we are survivors.

For one nickel you could ride a street car, make a phone call, buy a Pepsi, or enough stamps to send one letter and two postcards. You could buy a new Chewy Coupe for $600., but who could afford one?
