The flights , which will lenvo every half hour for Nantucket , also fea- ture free transportation to and from West Barnstable railroad sta- tion. This amazingly low cost serv- ice will feature a price tag of only $7.60. It is expected that a large volume of traffic will be built up to the island via this unique service. Herbert K. Morse of Marstons Mills has joined the staff of per- sonnel at the Cape Cod Airport for the summer months. Herbie, who worked at the Held prior to his en- trance In Purdue University, will leave in the fall to resume Ills J studies. His duties in the meantime I will consist of flying in the capacity of Flight Instructor and Commer- cial Pilot. Richard E. Perry of Po- casset finished his checkout In the Piper Super Cruiser with Flight Instructor Raymond Pendergast, and proceeded to take his fliancee for a ride to Provincetown and re- turn. Richard did a good job on the checkout , but still prefers the sea- plane to wheeled aircraft. Joe Pnyan of Craigville, Line Chief at the Cape Cod Airport, has started his flight training for a Private Pilot's Certificate with Flight In- structor Herbert Morse. John is al- most too eager to get into the blue and master the art of flying. At the rate of speed that he has set for absorbing instruction , it won't be too many weeks before Joe will be a full fledged Airdale. Miss Florence Hills of Dennis- port put in an hour's flying in the Piper Cub on floats. Miss Hills was to view the largest airplane in the world, the Constitution , which was at Logan Airport in East Boston over the weekend. Sunday's nearly perfect weather brought a drove of cars to the air- port, some to fly—others just to watch the activity. Students piled up a total of over twenty-hours' flying on four of the ships. The day ended well after nine o'clock, with Ray Pendergast making the last flight—a party of two to Nantucket. The weather at Nantucket wouldn't have waited much longer either, as it was right on the edge ot the field when the flight departed, and not long after the return trip, the whole Held was obscured by fog. On the subject of weather, it. is very interesting to note that June hasn't yet produced a day of rain, although that sounds like Ideal fly- ing conditions, a little rain wouldn't be sneered at, as it would clear up the atmosphere, and possibly bring cooler weather to the Cape. Flight Instructor Raymond Pen- dergast, who co-manages the field , took a big leap Sunday by getting married. Ray will be on his honey- moon this week, returning to the operation for the weekend. A good percentage or the personnel and students attended the reception to giv him a good sendoff , and wish him lots of luck. Lineboy Joseph Payan of Craig- ville Is still plugging away as a student pilot with Herbert Morse of Marstons Mills as Instructor. Joe should be ready for solo in a week or so. In the meantime, his dally routine and flight periods are pretty well filled up, with heavier traffic on the way this weekend. Commercial Pilot and Airport Manager Angus Perry of Center- ville added another rating to his certificate Monday by taking the Flight Instructor Rating test with CAA Inspector William Placek at Norwood. After three hours of oral and flight examinations , he re- turned to Cape Cod another step up the ladder to a flight career. Dan Clark of Ostervllle was flown to Nantucket in the Luscombe by Instructor Herbert Morse . The re- duced fares and improved sched- ules to Nantucket have brought about an Increase in inquiries and passengers to the island. Maintenance Inspector Charles Fuller had a BT13 in from East- ham airport during the week for re-license. Edgnrtown airport also has a Stlnson 150 Voyager in the shop for a paint job , which will be Mulshed in a day or so. Al Hoxie and his wife dropped into tbe Held from Philadelphia, Pa„ for a few days in their North American Navlon. They will leave for home after the holiday week- end. Monomoy Theatre's Green Room Exhibits Richard "Dick" Kelsey, well known Cape Cod photographer, will be the first exhibitor ot the season in the Green Room of the Monomoy Theatre In Chatham.

He now is frequently called by na- tionally known publications for Cape Cod plotures In both color and black and white. "Dick", an ardent flying en- thusiast and Hcensd pilot, has sue- oessfuljy combined his vocation and his avocation to the point ot keeping three aerial cameraB busy. Several of his aerials of Cape Cod are included in this exhibit. Also included are examples of portrai- ture, commercial and general pic- torial photography.

Richard AUlrlch announced the signing of Paul Lukas aa the star In Sam Raphaelson's delightful comedy success "Accent On Youth" at the Falmouth Playhouse. Com- ing from sunny Palm Springs, Cal., Mr. Lukas, will be making his first appearance to summer audiences on Cape Cod. He starred In the picture "Watch I on the Rhine" which created a sensation and won for him th8 coveted film trophy for excellence —the Academy Award. Three decades of acting- have made Mr. Lukas one of America's foremost actors. Studying at the Actors' Academy In Budapest Hungary, Mr. Lukas first received recognition for his brillant show- ings in the lead of "Llliom" and as Samson In "Samson and De- lilah." Quick to recognize such talent were Jesse Lacky and Adolph Zukor, two film scouts , who Im- mediately- engaged him for the American screen.
