—
SEATTLE. Feb. 26. — Skiing, a
comparatively new sport in the
Pacific Northwest, has brought a
thriving business to the basement
workshop of 17-year-old Elton Leith
of Seattle. He has so much work
he keeps his father, mother and
three pals busy.
At the age of 14. Elton made
himself a pair of ski poles. Young
sters in his neighborhood wanted
some and he made more.
During the National Ski Tour
nament at Mount Rainier last win
ter, a coach of an Eastern college
ski team saw some of the poles
and liked them. He prevailed!
upon an Eastern sporting goods'
store to order 500 pairs.
