Chillum Heights Unit Protests Low Flying The Chillum Heights Citizens’ As sociation last night expressed its disapproval of pilots flying low and stunting over the area as a means of "impressing their sweeties on the ground.” Despite the fact that planes are supposed to fly at 1,000 feet over the city, and are not supposed to pass over residential areas, William R. Bateman said, planes fly low and stunt, endangering lives and prop erty. Mr. Bateman told the group that protesting to the proper authorities would rectify the situation and as sured the group military authorities would give perfect co-operation in “clipping the wings” of any guilty pilot.' Mr. Bateman pointed out, how ever, planes must be identified as to their numbers, types and branches of service to which they belong. Roy L. Burges, president, referred the matter to a committee. The association asked its Member ship Committee to investigate meth ods of enrolling new members. Earl Otto suggested the committee try to find some one who would canvass the area for members, in return for a small percentage of the dues col-! lected. The group asked the Traffic j Bureau to conduct a survey of the! traffic at the intersection of Ken nedy and North Capitol streets and New Hampshire avenue.. The association also voted to join; the Northeast Council of Citizens’ Associations. The meeting, conducted by Mr. Burges, was held in the Luther Rice Baptist Church, 5315 North Capitol ' street.
