_- The Works Board today ordered all private aircraft operating out of Municipal Airport to install radio receivers tuned to the radio control tower at the port. The installation was ordered as a safety measure on recommendation of Superintendent I. J. Dienhart. Mr. Dienhart said that in a few months the airlines will add several more schedules and at the same time students and private flying will increase.
Investigation Ordered The resulting congestion, he said, will be hazardous unless private planes are equipped with radio sets so they can get landing instructions from the control tower. Board members also ordered Martin H. Walpole, Board secretary, to investigate the complaint of George W. Henderson, 1733 E. 60th St., that he had not received notification of a hearing to install sidewalks on Narwaldo Ave. from 59th to 61st S Mr. Henderson charged that only a few property owners affected by the proposed improvement received notices to appear at the hearing held Feb. 16. At that time the Board approved the sidewalk installation, but a group of residents since has filed a remonstrance.
Gas Main Job to Begin Leo F. Welch, Board vice president, said that if it is found Mr. Henderson and other property owners were not notified properly, another hearing may be arranged. The Board was informed by the Citizens Gas & Coke Utility that work will begin next week on relocating an 8-inch gas main now on the floor of the Arlington Ave. bridge over Pleasant Run Creek. The relocation was requested by the Board as the first step in widening the bridge, which East Side residents contend is a traffic hazard.
