Barrow Jr., head of the Air port Authority, said Thursday, as he discussed the problem of ob structions at the Rich Square road end of the field. But otherwise, things are look ing up. On the bright side, the Airport Authority head reported that most of the material necessary for an administration building for the field has been donated and “we are Jioping to get a couple of com panies to help us build it," The building will be used ini tially to provide a telephone, wash rooms and a waiting room and will be constructed as soon as pos sible. The runway headache involves FAA engineers decision that an 11-acre area beyond the Rich Square highway, where trees had been cut after purchase of the lands, still does not meet ob struction requirements. The 11 acres had been cleared in a pat tern of a triangle, minus one point, with the wider part fanning out from that end of the runway. But FAA engineers now see trees at the narrow part next to the road as obstructions which must either be removed or be marked with lights. If trees remain and poles with lights are placed, these poles will represent a daylight hazard, it was said. Further the addition al lights would mean the Author ity would have to go back to the public for more money for light ing — and the lighting money nec essary to handle the present area is already in hand. Barrow said that Authority representatives have gone back to the landowners and are trying to work out a solution. Whether it will involve purchase or lease of the additional land — estimated at possibly four acres - isn’t known.

'4-H Is Different’ By ANNA BEALE BURGESS Roberts Chapel 4-H Club Tonight, as I sat in our regular 4-H club meeting, I realized that 4-H is different from other or ganizations. Due to the lack of leaders, the senior and junior clubs in our community have had to meet together for several months. Here we sat - a 4th grader and a senior _ each hav ing the same interests and enjoy ing the same fellowship. Each member complements the other- the senior giving guidance and encouragement to the younger member and the younger mem ber “looking up" to the older member. What organization in our area could offer such a variety of in terests for young people as 4-H? Already in 1967, several of our members have attended an elec tric workshop and are in the process of assembling electric lamps. Several members studied record keeping at a special workshop in Jackson and many of the girls have begun their sewing project in preparation for the annual 4-H Dress Revue in June. One could not keep from feel ing the pride in our club and our members when we talked abcAit one of our own members, Sandra Edwards, having a trip to 4-H Club Congress in Chicago. Club spirit is high and club participa tion is always good. Each person is only expected to do what he is able to do. Yes, 4-H is different! I’m glad I belong!
