BOMBER BOGS DOWN: Trees, telephone poles and houses impeded the land travel of this B-24 to such an extent that it took three days to move it a distance of two miles from the former bomber plant to its permanent base as a war memorial in front of the Edsel B. Ford post of the American Legion at 2094 E. Michigan Ve., Ypsilanti. Dedicatory ceremonies are bing held Sunday afternoon. The plane is being hauled through the Willow Lodge dormitory section.
