He admitted, however, control of civil aviation in Indiana is out of hand because of the tremendous number of people taking to the air, “Enforcement of flying regulations is dificult and not in our jurisdiction,” Col. Cornish sald. “But the state police, county prose cutors and sheriffs are doing their utmost to bring proceedings against those they can catch.” Commenting that “headlines develop aeronautics in reverse,” Col. Cornish said pilots must be made to realize that they are not free from all restrictions just because they are “alone in a blue sky.” Four Escape Death Escaping death on the ground, four persons were injured when an inbound Pennsylvania {rain crashed | © into the truck in which they were riding. Truck driver Robert C. Madabach, 24, of 224 N. Keystone ave., was hurled from the cab so violently his trousers were torn off and his face lacerated.

Mrs, Wilburn was taken fo St. Vincent's hospital where her condition was reported fair. The bedplate of the truck was hurled into a nearby elevator by the impact and the inbound train was stalled 30 minutes.

«AS Candidate
Richard H. Byland will be certifled as the Democratic candidate for mayor of Beech Grove despite the fact that he was not a legally registered voter on primary election day last Tuesday. His nomination was challenged by Beech Grove citizens when it was learned he was not registered. He explained he forgot about his registration status till after the April 6 deadline for registering.

The latter board ruled that Mr. Byland should be certified as a candidate sirice he is a legal resident of Beech Grove and has been for many years. He defeated Omar J.* Hammell for the mayoralty nomination by a vote of 396 to 124,
