Bobby, who stars with Emily Banks, Leslie Nielsen and Don Galloway in the explosive action film, portrays a sensitive young gunfighter - sheriff whose consci- ence is marred by the accidental killin g of his best friend during the closing days of the Civil War. Emily, soon-to-be-seen in “The Plainsman,” stars as the girl who creates quite a triangle when her affections shift from Darin to Nielsen and back to Darin. Bobby, a real-life expert on guns, brings an unmatched freshness to the stereotyped Western hero image — right down to the black hat and horse, usually reserved for villains.

Time to time, between trafflc reports, Major other than a quick shift from low to high and he’ll blab Bruce would bank the ship so that we might better see it to everybody on the freeway. He’ll even go so far as to such landmarks as Lake Encino, various shopping plazas, tattletale to the police if you crunch the back bumper of and the vast Griffith Park complex.

Obviously it is, but it does invade a guy’s privacy throughout the Valley, some half-dozen of them and to a degree. The whole thing is unfair. Major Bruce has quite large. Perhaps “lakes” is a misnomer for these pud- his privacy. You don’t know what he’s doing, cruising up dles, since they are actually reservoirs maintained by the there above the smog blanket. You don’t know, that is, city’s water department. unless somebody who knows teils you. I do and I will. Once the peak trafflc hours were past, Major Bruce Through the courtesy of KGIL, my two sons and I side-stepped up back into Van Nuys airport, helped us recently flew with Major Bruce (known as Bruce Payne out of the aircraft, and then latched it, a captured butter- when he isn’t airborne). We have a new respect for the fly, to its ground weights. He walked us back to the handsome Sky Watcher, a skilled military pilot who has control office where he had found us, said goodbye with flown everything except the coop and, as an Air Forces the same gallantry he had two hours earlier said “hello,” jetdnstructor, has taught others to do the same. Now and drove away in, of all things, an automobile. This Mike and Tim have a new hero. seemed all wrong, somehow, a bird riding in a wagon. Besides, Major Bruce shouldn’t be a part of street trafflc — he should be 2,000 feet above that sort of thing. Major Bruce looks exactly the way a flying radio star Driving home, the boys and I relived our adventure, but should look. Good profile, resonant voice. Sort of a domes- we didn’t turn on the radio. We didn’t want to. Perhaps it ticated Captain Jack. A virile guy likely to fry a crisp was because we knew something other freeway drivers potato chip. He looks nothing at all like the only other didn’t: Major Bruce wasn’t up there. sky watcher I know, Chicken Little. Early every morning and late every afternoon, the Major jumps into his handyCessna 172andtakes off from the Van Nuys Airport. Before you can say Ferdinand Mendenhall, he is 2,000 feet up and ready to broadcast trafflc conditions on all Valley freeways. Maybe it was just Cessning — or maybe it was the flying skill of Major Bruce, I’m not flyer enough to say, but we seemed to get off the ground with the shortest take-off on record. Motor on! Ship up! (Whatever hap- pened to “Contact!”, I wondered, and where was the flowing white neckscarf the Major should be wearing? Modern flying is all so business-like.) Suddenly there we were, hanging high above the foaming Anheuser-Busch distillery. The Major smiled, offering us groundlings a helping of his own self-assurance. He has a goodly supply of that. He gives you the impression that he is holding the plane up. He shouted something that sounded like “Don’t go away, now!” and then gave his attention to the job at hand. Evidently, the squirming freeways beneath us revealed information to him that was not evident to us. From time to time, he held his radio mike close to his mouth (to lessen engine noise pickup) and gave reports that KGIL relayed to all you freeway drivers. As the entire Valley slid slow-motion beneath us, the boys and I enjoyed looking at familiär sights from this unfamiliar angle.

SOME THINGS YOLI DESERVE TO KNOW ABOLIT I I ST OM MADE SHIRTS

A lot of men, unfortunately, don’t care what kind of shirts they wear as long as they have buttons. This is regrettable because a shirt doesn't have to be a uniform. In fact, nothing contrib- utes so much to a man's individuality and comfort than cus- tom made shirts. Don’t let the words “custom made” intimidate you. We're old fashioned craftsmen who don't go in for fancy fixtures in our establishment. We love to make beautiful shirts because that’s the only way we know how. If you respect honest craftsman- ship, beautiful fabrics and fair prices, you owe it to yourself to pay us a visit. You’re in for a wonderful experience. Mary & AI De Mirjian
