DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Indiana's Flying Farmers To Visit Decatur In Spring Indiana’s Flying Farmers have decided to visit Decatur next spring, flying to Liniger airport west of the city from their home fields throughout the state. The decision to make the outing was made unanimously at a meeting of some 150 members at Lafayette last Thursday. The invitation was extended by Gene Rydell, local aviation enthusiast, and secretary-trelsurer of the Adams county aviation boosters club. Also at the meeting were John Rogers, co-manager of the Decatur airport, and Edwin C. Bauman, of Berne. The trio flew to Lafayette in the Stinson plane owned by Bag Service, Inc. The Flying Farmers, who iwill arrive in approximately 75 aircraft, plan to tour the Central , Soya company plant here as the ’ high spot of their visit. It has been announced that the aviation boosters club will meet at ■7:30 tonight at the airport in a regular business meeting. The purchase of 40 acres of farmland for tlie expansion of Van Wert. 0., municipal airport will be discussed at the meeting. Markets At A Glance By United Press Stocks lower in moderate trading.
