Weather Stymies Syracuse Airplane Search
A Comanche 250 piloted by John Dominick with passenger Sam Miller disappeared after leaving Stapleton Denver for San Antonio Texas Saturday around 10 a.m. Poor Colorado weather prompted a large Civil Air Patrol search across US 50 and the Arkansas River area from Garden City to Lamar with 16 planes and 12 mobile units. Dominick brothers, from Littleton, said he first flew in 1957. The hunt shifts to the area north of Syracuse as officials pursue possible diversion to better conditions.

School officials see new buildings ready by fall 1967
Garden City Community Junior College president L. Crouch said the campus could begin use in fall 1967 with contracts for initial buildings set by summer or early fall. Plans for the library may precede others due to possible federal aid, and Supt. Tom Saffell voiced similar hopes for the senior high school expansion. Remodeling of the present structure is planned to start by the end of the 1966-67 year, with most work completed for fall 1967 to allow vocational shops to operate during remodeling.
