Naval Station At Bunker Hill
Seen as Ranch
PERU, Ind., May 22 (U. P.).—The $22,000,000 “surplus” Bumker Hill
naval air station today appeared
destined to become a combination
| deluxe cattle ranch and commer-
cial airport. Rejected as a possible site for a a tne versity, a state conservation area or
{a national guard airport, the 2000- | odd-acre air station was sought by
a young Hoosier scientist who revealed tentative plans which he
said would make Indiana the world
cattle breeding center. The scientist, Raymond E. Um-
baugh, Argos, had the support of
Peru Mayor J. O. Miller. The mayor told a special conference called yesterday to discuss-dis-position of the Bunker Hill station that the city of Peru would be willing to take over the area. Hundreds of navy fighter pilots were trained there during the war. Mr, Umbaugh’s plan included the operation of a commercial airport in connection with his cattle breeding enterprise. He sald it would serve the city of Peru. He claimed to have discovered a new method of breeding which he said made fit possible to obtain many blooded calves each year from one cow. Clarence F. Cornish, director of the Indiana Aeronautics Commission, presided over the conference, attended by about 100 leaders from surrounding counties. State Forester Ralph Wilcox said the station was flot suitable for conservation project purposes and Brig. Gen. Ben H. Watt, Indiana adjutant general, told the conference the Indiana Nationa! Guard had no plans to utilize the facilities. Dr. F. L. Hovde, Purdue university president, and O. L. Wildermuth, president of the Indiana university board of trustees, spiked opinions that the site might be used | as a university site.
