Skydiver Place[s] in [guess: Sunnyside] Tourney

Paul M. Clifford, Boeing Employee Skydivers' president, placed third in the style event at the second annual Central Washington Skydiving tour- nament at Sunnyside last Saturday and Sunday.

Clifford, a professional exhibitionist with more than 270 delay-falls, made a figure eight and a back roll in less than 15 seconds from 4,000 feet. Rainy weather imposed the low-altitude regulation on the stunt jumpers who ordinarily fall from 7,200 feet.

Six other Boeing employees participated in the contest. David Lithgow, Ralph Mulvihill and Clif- ford competed in the senior spot jumping, team jumping, and style jumps. Those competing in the junior event were Jack Simmons, Jim O'Brien, Sheridan Peterson and Peter Thomas.
