The newest Pan American project is much more practical than the slogans imply. (For instance, Juneau it never rains—it pours.” “How Dry I Am.") PAA has purchased nearly . a dozen oversize black umbrellas on which these slogans are printed in large gold and silver letters. B. F. Dunn, district traffic man- ager, says the plan is to have statt members rush the bumbershoots to the door of arriving aircraft for protection of passengers who must curry through rain or snow to the terminal.
