(STATE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT P. O. Box 1498 Motor Vehicle Division Columbia, S. C ; "NAVY TRADE TRAINING GAVE ME MY START SAYS PRESIDENT, SPERRY CORPORATION b , - ' ' ^mrrr^ ' ' : * ????ft THOMAS A. MORGAN (pictured in Insert) , president of the Sparry Corporation, world's largest manufacturers of aeronautical and marine instruments, received his early technical training in the U. S. Navy, in which he enlisted as a young man. "This has proved of great value to me in later years," said ex-sailor Morgan. Pictured above are new Navy recruits receiving electrical training at one of the moderhly equipped Navy Trade Schools. The Navy offers training to young men in nearly 50 different trades and vocations* Pilot of Plane Shows Real Grit The strange sight of an airplane leading a command car along winding dirt roads was actually an exhibition of courage, ingenuity and alertnesB which turned back an enemy Red thrust across the Pee Dee river near Little Mills at the Blue main lipe of resistance Wednesday afternoon. Lieutenant Howard C. Keith, of Brockton, Mass., operating one of the new 0-4D observation pianos of the 101! Observation squadron, had been faced with the fact that he could not give the alarm after discovering the enemy assault boats w6re crossing the Pee Dee because the field in which he was supposed to land was surrounded by high trees, making It impossible to bring In a plane. Lieutenant Keith did not quit. He took a quick look around, lined up another field a mile away that looked safe although It measured only 100 by 300 yards and was untested for landing purposes, then returned to hover almost motionless in the air over members of L company 101st Infantry of the 26th (Yankee) division. From that perch he hollored at them to jump in a car and follow. The result was a command car chasing an airplane along back roads and the final outcome a reception party to greet the enemy when thpy landed. I Colonel Waite Almost Captured Colonel Joseph D. Patch, who commands the Blue 87th Brigade, hopes to capture Colonel Sumner Waite of the 13th Red Infantry and is depending on a bright Buffalo, N. Y., private to help him out. Colonel Patch recently came to the 44th division from the command of the 34th infantry which with the 13th is part of the 8th infantry division. Colonel Patch Wednesday was singing the praises of Private Robert Frost, a scout observer of the 87th brigade intelligence section. During the recent engagement with the Red First Corps, Frost, under cover of darkness, slipped into the 13th Infantry C. P. and remained hidden under a command truck. He listened to an important tactical discussion between Colonel Waite and his intelligence officers and gained considerable information of value to the blues. Then he made his way back to his own regiment, covering part of the distance In an enemy vehicle without his Identity being discovered. "Frost could even have made away with Colonel Waite's command car which was unguarded for part of the time" Colonel Patch said. "That would not have been cricket under the rules of the maneuver* but I hope he will capture Colonel Waite himself before we are through." Sergeant Klumpers Killed Sergeant William T. Klumpers. of New York city, a member of Company A, 191st Tank Battalion died shortly after an accident on Highway 918 in the vicinity of Caskey. S. C. The sergeant was riding In a bantam army car when It hit a hole and he was thrown out of the vehicle. For night photography the U. S.

America'* aircraft industry, it wa* disclosed by P. G. Johnson, president of the Boeing Aircraft company of Seattle, has taken a leaf from the government's book of alphabetical agencies and created one of it* own?the B.V.D. committee?as part of the country's national defense and aid-to-Britain program. The committee, consisting of 60 engineers and other technicians, derived its designation from the three West coast plants which supplied its personnel Boeing, Vega and Douglas. It was organized when the war department and the Office of Production Management decided to speed up the production of longrange, four-engine bombers, in the President's new production goal of 500 such ships a month in the defense and aid-to-Britain program, by having Boeing "flying fortresses" built not only in Seattle but also by the Vega Airplane company, a Lockheed subsidiary, and the Douglas Aircraft company, in the Los Angeles area. Infant Mortality Cut . ^? Heavily'in 20 Years TORONTO.?Infant mortality in the United States has declined by 45 per cent over a period of 20 years, and the death rate among children from 1 to 14 years old has decreased by 60 per cent, Dr. Louis I. Dublin told the annual meeting of the American Institute of Actuaries here. Dr. Dublin, who is vice president and statistician of the Metropolitan Life Insurance company, presented the figures in a study of infant mortality made jointly with Mortimer Spiegelman of the same company. The improvement has been accelerated in the past decade, the report stated, pointing out that in the years 1920-'29 infant mortality declined 23 per cent, while in the years 193039 it declined 30 per cent. "Equally important, there is no sign of slackening in the rate of improvement," the report said. It added that such extraordinarily low mortality rates have been reached by some of the ages within the 1 to 14-year group that further appreciable reduction appears difficult. * Slot-Machine Entertainment Another new development in slotmachine entertainment made its appearance recently in Hollywood and it bids fair to engulf the nation before long. It is called the "Talking Juke Box." The device looks like the nickel-ln-the-elot music boxend it will play most anything requested?by asking an Operator at some distant point. The machines are connected with leased wires from a central station, with girt operators ready to serve your every request. Drop a coin in a slot ami from the centra] office a sweet soft voice asks, "number, please," just like the telephone operator. The customer then mentions the song or orchestra number he wishes and presto?just like that?the operator selects the record, puts it on a turntable, plugs the music into the proper outlet, and lo, and behold, the music "comes out right here." Lincoln Gave Testimonial During the War Between the States a chiropodist named Isacher Zacharie visited President Lincoln in the White House and wheedled this testimonial out of the President: "Dr. Zecharie his operated on my feet with jpeat success, and considerable addition, to my comfort." This foot doctor urged Lincoln to have trained chiropodist# aV tached to each regiment in the army. Thev had chapleins to care for the souls of the soldiers, why not chiropodists to look after their Miss! , , .J Chamber Appeals For Weevil W?r . {Continued from first pas*) In the fields until frost as when their food on living stalks is destroyed early. When the plant is taken from the weevil in September, practically no weevils live through the winter, according to Mr, Cardwell. He polite out that when cotton is taken from the weevil in early October few weevils live through the winter, but where stalks are not dsstroyod before Iroit a lot of the weveils live through the * winter to furnish "shock troops" for the destruction of next year's cotton crop. t/ Mr. Cardwell In addition to urging the early destruction of cotton stalb, advocated an abundance of snail i grains and winter legumes on theie , cotton lands for soil protection &n?
