Caption
Graceful co-ordination rivaling the flight of a sea-gull is demonstrated by this light plane as it skims in for a perfect landing on the snow-blanketed field at the Ann Arbor city airport. The plane is one of several that have been equipped with ski landing-gear to familiarize flight students with special problems of winter flying. Ice-bound rivers and lakes furnish hundreds of new landing-fields during the long Michigan winter - but use of temporary facilities provided by the Weather Man requires a special technique on the part of the pilot. The plane is being flown by Everett Esch, former Willow Run test pilot and now the head of a local flying school.

The home of Mayor and Mrs. Robert J. Harris returned to normal today following a party yesterday afternoon for young "party workers" and "innumerable neighborhood kids." Mrs. Harris is shown reaching into a box with a dwindling supply of cups used for ice cream sodas. She said there were 50 to 75 children at the party, given as a reward for their aid during the recent mayoral campaign. Their jobs during the campaign included stuffing envelopes and hanging messages on doors. Obviously, the children enjoy licking ice cream more than licking envelopes, however.
