Brown became the first Piedmont pilot to retire). 317 E. Fall St. Ithaca, N. Y. To all our dear friends: There aren’t enough words in the English language to express our appreciation and gratitude for the concern, well wishes, and thoughts which have been constantly flowing this way by way of cards, letters, and phon,e calls during Ha rold’s siege of illness. I should like to write to each and every one of you per sonally, but it is just impossible. Please consider this as a personal note to each one. Our thoughts are with you and knowing we are in your hearts is very gratifying and strengthening. Again, thank you, I Louise and Harold Brown FIVE START . . . (Continued from Page Two) Fayetteville.

Jaunt PIEDMONITOR MARKET FOR SALE — Basset hounds — pups. AKC. If interested con tact Chester Nutt, RDU. A pert, blue-eyed blonde from Britain has been helping prove that America extends a warm welcome to the foreign visitor, not only to his person but to his pocketbook as well. Roberta Woolley, a film and television favorite in England, recently finished visiting 29 cities in 21 days, using as trans portation the nation’s local ser vice airlines and the Gray Line Association’s tour buses. The purpose of Miss Woolley’s fast- paced- promotional trip was to illustrate to prospective foreign travelers how inexpensive and convenient a tour of North America can be. The cost of the entire trip subsequent to April 1, when the new trans-Atlanta fares become available, was approximately $699 from London back to Lon don. This includes trans-Atlantic air fares, unlimited flying for 15 days on the “Visit U. S. A.” fare with the local service air lines, unlimited sight-seeing for 21 days through the Gray Line Companies, average hotel accom odations, and first class meals throughout. Miss Woolley managed to fly on nearly all the local carriers during her trip. Piedmont’s turn came January 27, when she took Flight 85 from Washington to Knoxville. Setting up her Wash ington reservations was District Sales Manager O. E. “Bud” Hal sey. He accompanied Miss Wool ley to Knoxville w^here she was Roberta Woolley and District Sales Manager Bud Halsey go over the “Visit U. S. A." brochure prior to leaving from Washington on Flight 85 for Knoxville. Agent Gary Schuman (right) writes the "Visit U.S.A." ticket. met by Bob Sudderth, City Sales Manager, and a battery of re porters from the local press. During the flight’s stopover in Roanoke Miss “Visit U. S. A.” was presented a Star City charm for her bracelet, and welcomed to the area by Jack C. Smith, Executive Vice President of the Roanoke Chamber of Commerce. Through it all, observers re port the petite (5’2”) actress ap peared to enjoy her American visit, and quote her as saying she was “filled with awe over the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, and Washing ton in general.” Miss Woolley began her career as a dancer seven years ago, and since then has had a number of stage and screen roles, in addi tion to filming over 1,000 com mercials for television. ARCH To Find Long Lost Bags An electronic baggage tracing system will be inaugurated by the domestic airlines May 1, Jack M. Slichter, Air Transport Asso ciation vice president — traffic has announced. To be known as ARCH (for Airline Baggage Recovery Clear ing House), the system is design ed to speed the recovery of mis directed bags which cannot be located by the routine tracing efforts of the airline within 24 hours after the loss is reported. “Each year” Slichter pointed out, “the U. S. airlines handle some 100 million pieces of lug gage and, inevitably, a few of these articles are misdirected. At the present, about 90 per cent of all misdirected bags are located within 24 hours. The new system is designed to expedite the locat ing of the remaining 10 per cent, the ones that cause the greatest inconvenience to passengers.” PEANUTS by Scliulz The new system will take ad vantage of the latest electronic sorting and communicatio>ns equipment and will be operated for the airlines by Aeronautical Radio, Inc. Since substantially all of the major airlines will be tied into a nationwide teletype hookup, ARCH will allow for ra pid exchange of information about lost luggage even when more than one airline is involv ed in a passenger’s trip. The operation is basically a matching-up process using punch cards and electronic sort ers. Each airline will transmit daily a list of bags on hand to the clearing house. Each airline will also transmit a list of miss ing bags. The use of a coding system will allow for an accurate description of the color, type, and even the contents of each bag. The two lists will be match ed, the appropriate offices noti fied by teletype and the bag ex pedited back to its owner. Tm. Reg. U. S.

(Continued from Page Two) performed by Mr. Julius Dean at the Asheville Airport on my behalf. In a rather trying situation yesterday, in attempting to en able my daughter, who was re turning to college, to make a very close connection, Mr. Dean was most co-operative and help ful in every possible respect. He went far out of his way to fur nish information and to assist her in making the connection and was extremely pleasant and courteous throughout. I commend your company for having men like Mr. Dean rep resenting you with the public. Sincerely, M. S. C. Asheville, N. C. STOCK CLERKS . . .

Williams for their work. “They have stayed right with this problem,” said Barber, “and they’re getting more use out of inventory dollars by ordering more often and getting a faster turnover in stock.” Roanoke stock also issues tools and “free issue” items in addi tion to “rotatable” and expenda ble items.
