Bryan Air Base Pilot-
Killed During Storm
KANSAS CITY lift—In a Sunday
night thunderstorm, a jet pilot was
killed near Centralia, Kan.
The public information officer at
Bryan, Tex., Air Force Base, Lt.
William M. Ilodson, said the pilot,
who was flying a T-33 jet trainer
from Bryan when it crashed was
2nd Lt. John W. Cooper of Robbins-
vale, Minn.
Cooper's plane, farmers said, ei-
ther exploded in the air or was
struck by lightning. Wreckage was
strewn over too wide an area, they
said, to have resulted from the
plane's crashing in one piece.

HOMES
TOO MAY LIKE
For an inexpensive home vvell
located, on paved street we
know of no better buy than this,
home on Neff Street. The num-
ber is 608.
The price Is only S3400 with
easy terras. We want you to see
this on the inside. No doubt you
will be surprised. Exclusive.
Another very nice home Is
the one located at 203 Oranse
St. 5 large rooms. All in very
good condition. Priced at only
$6,000 with easy terms. Re-
member this is near Junior
High School. Also on paved
street. Exclusive.
The more we show this lovely
home on East 3rd Street the
more we want it ourselves.
If we could sell our property
in Blum I suppose we would
buy it. As much as we would
hate to part with that Blum
property.
You should see the large
rooms with so many spacious
closets. You can remove any
garment from the closet, with-
out coming out with a dress
around your neck.
Had a wonderful showing on
the lovely home on Josephine
Street. But we still have the
house. If you have not seen it,
why not have a look. It's so dif-
ferent
We have these and many oth-
ers to select from. Just give us
a call.
