Jets Dominate —■> international Air Transport You're Confused! Try Avon, Conn. Last year the trustees estab lished University Park as a sepa rate post office for the University. Ever since then there has been a state of confusion about which mail goes to University Park and which goes to State College. If you think you’ve a right to complain about the confusion be tween “State College” and "Uni versity Park," consider the plight of the student attending Avon Old Farms, a school in Connecti cut. His mailing address is Avon, Conn. The railroad station is Hart ford. The telephone exchange is Farmington, and telegrams go via Hartford. doing Pratt & Whitney Aircraft power for international jet fleet World’s foremost designer end builder of aircraft engines Fire Kills Woman, PITTSBURGH, Jan. 5 (JP) —A swift moving, pre-dawn fire kill ed a 31-year-old woman and left 24 other persons homeless today as it swept through a row of sev en frame homes in the city’s west end. Mrs. Anna Stork, an account ing clerk, suffocated in the sec ond floor bedroom she rented from Mrs. Florence Burkhardt. Mrs. Burkhardt, a Baltimore and Ohio Railroad cleaning lady, was at work. A bus driver turned in the fire alarm after he noticed flames spurting from the home. Fire Chief Stephen P, Adley estimat ed damage at $40,000. Adley said the fire apparently started in the kitchen. Cause of the blaze has not been determin ed. Families in the other si x homes fled into the early morning darkness and a chilling 20 degree temperature. Mo 7 major V. S. airlines, recognizing the future of jet flight in commercial transportation, have placed their orders for jet-powered transports. Of added significance, however, ! is that American-made equipment will be flown also by foreign airlines in the age of jet travel. Flying Douglas DC-8 Clippers or Boeing 707 Strato* liners, these domestic and foreign airlines, circling the globe, j will shrink it 40 per cent. For power, the entire fleet will rely on Pratt & Whitney Aircraft jet engines. Such achieve ment is evidence of unchallenged leadership.
