New Airport Possibility
Foreseeing a possible "start" by the
city in the direction of a new airport
to be built on the environs of the ex-
isting one, Fred. L. Arnet, chairman
of the park committee of the city
council, said that his committee had
"high hopes" of receiving Federal aid
for such a program.
He said that American Air Lines
had already agreed to land its pas-
senger and mail planes on the Ann
Arbor runways when the improve-
ments were made but added that the
war may hold up the arrangement
temporarily.
Ip its report to the city council,
the park committee stated that "air
transportation is destined to become
a major factor in the affairs of the
nation and the world and a city with-
out, an air line terminal is bound to
suffer stagnation and los in its bus-
iness and commercial life."

FromBAssociated Press Summaries
Well, 'the rabid Brooklyn-Giant
feudists have something to .really
roar about. Sore enough Monday
night about a decision that gave the
Dodgers a break the Polo Grounders
howled to high heaven. But now
fuel is added to the flames in the
presence of a boon to the Giants
through this same twi-night base-
ball dimout idea.
Last night Pee-wee Reese, Bum
shortstop, hit a homer with the
sacks full in the tenth after a nine-
inning 1-1 tie. But because of the
dimout regulations the game had to
be called before the Giants could
bat, and the game went into the
books as a 1-1 tie, an obvious injus-r
tice to the clutch-hitting abilities of
a Mr. Reese, and a still more obvious
injustice to the screaming Dodger
clan.
The promise that Sid Hudson
showed as a freshman pitcher when
he won 17 games is at last really
coming to the fore. In his last four
games he has pitched low-hit con-
tests and won all four. That's quite
a feat with the Senators.
