Campobello Island Becomes International Park Visit Site
Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson and Canadian counterpart Mrs. Lester B. Pearson helped establish Franklin D Roosevelt's summer home as an international park on Campobello Island. The site, linked to Maine by a 847 foot bridge, balances history from Webster Ashburton to Roosevelts and a shift toward tourism.

New Plane Bought for Pa Governor by Aeronautics Commission
The Pennsylvania Aeronautics Commission purchased a new Beechcraft twin engine aircraft for the governor's travel at a cost of 259100 dollars, after a 32000 dollar trade allowance on the old 10 year old plane. Atlantic Aviation Service of Philadelphia sold the aircraft and delivery was expected by Thursday. The old plane will be overhauled as the new one enters service carrying two pilots and five passengers. The commission noted the old model had logged about 200000 miles and 2000 flying hours and the upgrade aimed to avoid costly overhaul. The governor had flown the old plane to Pittsburgh for a Republican training event.
