CAPTAIN GILMORE
HEADS NAVIGATION

Born in Johnstown, Pa., Captain Gilmore received his schooling in Hamilton, Ohio, and was graduated in 1935 from Ohio University with a B.A. degree. For four years following he flew with the Navy, where he held the rank of lieutenant (jg).

A year later he returned to the Atlantic Division at North Beach. During the war he served as captain of ATC planes operated by Pan American for the Army and flew the route from La Guardia Field to Casablanca.
In August of this year Captain Gilmore was in command of the flight that inaugurated PAA’s new non-stop Clipper service from New York to London.
Captain Gilmore, who lives in Douglaston, L. I., is married and has three children, Martha, Barbara and James.
Dog Has Last Laugh In
{From. Gander, Ronald B. Chambers reports on current events in Newfoundland.)
October 1, 1947
During the past few months, all has not gone well with the many cargo flights we’ve transitted here at QXX as far as the dog shipments are concerned. When the ship arrives here with about 40 varieties of our canine friends, each trying to out-do the other on the vocal effort, they are ready to be walked and fed. They require a lot of watching to ensure there are no escapes.
Last night we had just such a flight. Our friend Frank Ceglio of maintenance had a few in his care and was making doubly sure that none gave him the slip. When departure time came, all dogs were boarded except one Frank spied down the ramp. Frank gave chase and wasn’t too happy when he discovered it was a 200-pound Newfoundland dog. It wouldn’t move, so Frank decided to carry it on board. After quite a struggle he was victorious in boarding his stubborn adversary . . . only to discover . . . the dog was not one of the shipment but
Gander Round-Up
a resident dog of Gander, perfectly happy here where it has been living for quite some time.
Today, October 1, opens the shooting season in Newfoundland. We are all expecting great things from our local company hunters, namely Bud Peyton, Bill Rendell and Cluny Hicks, who hope to bring home a few rabbits, ducks or other wild game during the season.
Our congratulations go out to Mr. and Mrs. Bud Peyton on the birth of a fine big boy.
Last Monday Gander was quite suddenly besieged by a strike by some of the airport government employes. All facilities such as feeding, heating, and transportation immediately came to a stop. Fortunately, the strike was of short duration — 24 hours — and did not interfere with operations as far as PanAm was concerned. Arrangements for feeding all personnel at BOAC quarters were immediately put into effect, so no one went hungry. At the moment the difference seems to be all ironed out and, we hope, will continue so throughout the winter.
