THE SUNDAY TELEGRAM
Homes Site Annexed to Horseheads
The plot south of the Village of Horseheads on which prefabricated houses are being erected by Modern Elmira Homes, Inc., was annexed* to the village by action of the village board Tuesday night.
The site is east of Grand Central Ave. and south of Victory Heights.
Earlier Tuesday, the Horseheads Town Board had held a public hearing on a two-week-old petition of Modern Elmira Homes Inc., ownefs of the property, for the transfer of the land from the town to the village.
No one appeared against the petition, Supervisor Herman G. Dunbar reported. Atty. Harry Moseson represented the petitioners.
Certain minor details have to be settled between the village and Modern Elmira Homes Inc. before water mains and meters are installed by the village, after which roads in the development will be paved.
At the request of the village trustees, Ernest Rumsey of Van Etteo spoke on the spraying of trees against elm beetles.
Rumsey pointed out that Ihe village trees, which had not been sprayed last year, should be treated this June, just before the beetles reach full size and begin laying their eggs in the elm leaves.
A letter was read from the Bethel Mills Corp., saying that the local firm had found no solution to the smoke nuisance it creates. The firm asks the board to communicate in the future with the home office at New York City.
The trustees rejected a request from Raymond F. Karl to move a sign from his service station at 1128 S. Main St. to a vacant lot at 1127 S. Main. The rejection gives the petitioner opportunity to have the request acted on by the zoning board of appeals.
Mayor William* Wigs ten announced that George White had assumed the duties of Village Half janitor. The board approved the appointment of Arthur Blide and John Howland as fire truck drivers. A request for action on improper
driving habits of visitors to the village cemetery was tabled pending investigation by the trustees.
Typing Hn the Groove?
"I'M IN A RUT," said the index finger to the middle finger. "Just keep punching, and you'll do okay," the middle finger replied. The two fingers were learning their part in a new, "painless" method of touch-typewriting developed by Russell Potter of New York. Potter's technique is to "fence o f f each finger with the keys it is supposed to
hit It's as simple as A-S-D-F-G.

Niagara Falls (ff) — A helicopter wrecked in the rapids above Niagara Falls during a dramatic rescue operation Monday was salvaged last night
One of the men who righted the overturned helicopter and towed it to a bank of the Niagara River was Jerry Pengway, 40-year-old construction engineer, who had returned to the wreckage a third time after being hauled to safety twice after mishaps.
Pengway was assisted to shore both times by means of a rowboat guided by ropes, in much the same manner as two pilots anud Mrs. Jennette Bugay were saved Monday.
Pengway's first mishap was the swamping of his boat by the churning waters near the brink of the Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side. He was able to scramble aboard the helicopter.
Several hours later, Pengway fell into the water while reaching from the boat to grab a rope lashed to the helicopter. He pulled himself aboard the wreckage with the rope.
Reporters talked to Pengway the first time he was hauled to safety on The Three Sisters Island.
"I had lots of courage until I got into the current," said Pengway. "I had a rope around me hot it wouldn't have helped; the current is too strong. "When I got to the helicopter I
had to work fast. The river is really roaring out there."
The helicopter, valued at $25,000
by the Bell Aircraft Corp., capsized Monday when its two "pilots were trying to haul Mrs. Bugay from the rock to which she had been clinging about 100 yards above the brink of the 160-foot cataract.
All were rescued with the help of another helicopter and a boat.
2 Mansfield Boys Honored at Party Mansfield—Mrs. C. P. Bailey and
Mrs. Raymond VanNoy- entertained at a party at the former's home on the Hollow Read honoring the fifth birthday of Mrs. Bailey's son, Paul, and the third birthday of Mrs. Van-Noy's son, Byron.
