Barry Taylor, son of Mrs. Ernest Taylor. R. R. No. 4, Greencastle, has received a patent for a device called the “Maned Skyhook.” This system was designed by Mr. Taylor, founder of Live Line Incorporated, to make possible the repair of energized electrical lines crossing rivers or deep canyons. It has unlimited application in areas where access is limited by terrain or location. The system uses a helicopter to lift and support a platform or basket in the air to permit workmen to reach their objective. The basket is positioned and controlled by lines made of low stretch material which are anchored to the ground. The helicopter is attached to the basket with marial link a huge rubber band. Thus system overcomes the problem of movement of the aircraft. The copter can move 20 feet vertically or up to 50 feet laterally without changing the position of the basket. As the position of the basket and the aircraft is controlled from the ground and as the copter is used as a sou r ce of lift only’, this stable position can be maintained for extended periods of time. Depending upon the operation involved and the conditions at the time of this operation, this extended period of time could be considered in relation to the fuel supply of the air-

craft.

Electrical isolation Is accomplished by means to special fiberglass link sticks. The system is presently capable of operating on 500,000 volt transmission lines. Masonic Notice Stated meeting Groveland Lodge No. 542. F. * A. M., May 11 at 7:30 p. m. Harry’ Pulliam, W. M.
