THE NEWBERRY SUN FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, IW NAVY WEAPONS OF THE FUTURE 1 Hi The first peacetime Navy Day in five years emphasizes the Navy’s preoccupation with scientific advancement as a means of preserving the security of the nation it fought to insure between Pearl Harbor and V-J Day. Highlighting the development of offensive and defensive weapons and devices accelerated by World War II are robot aircraft snch as the “Glomb,” “Gordon,” and “Gargoyle,” heralds of a super sonic age in which only the mind of man can match the speed of the deadly creatures his genius has conceived. Largest member of this trio is the “Glomb,” or glider-bomber (above). The LBE-1 is a tele vision-controlled aircraft which will stand 300 miles an hour in a four-G dive.

At the 4-H banquet at the State Fair it was announced that Billie Dove Koon of the Pomaria club had won a trip to Chicago to theNatoinal club congress which meets early in December. It is almost a necessity that a club member have at least 4 years of club work to her credit to win one of these trips. All records for the various years are submitted as well as attainments in some special phase of work. Citizenship, leadership, and wide scope of activities are all taken into consideration in winning these trips. Billie Dove has done good work for three years in Sears Garden and canning contests. She has been a county winner in dress revue, for two years she took part in a Dairy Team demonstration. In the latter, she belonged to the team which took second place in he State. In her story which told of her work she stated that for the last five years she had averaged prepar ing a meal a day. When her moth er is away she takes charge of the meals. This year she added raising poul try to her accomplishments. She says besides doing these things she can also milk the cow. Any club member who is willing to assume duties other than those imposed upon them can begin to build up credits for a trip of this kind. LUTHERAN SYNOD MEETS AT MT.

It takes rugged strength, quickness and courage to make tkej grade as a parachutist in the Ground Forces. And it takes long, 1 vigorous training —in the use of a dozen kinds of weapons —in parachute jumping — in readiness for instant action after landing.' Young men who can measure up to the high physical and' mental standards of the peacetime Regular Army are finding in it many remarkably new and stimulating jobs. The Regular Army is a gigantic research laboratory, constantly developing fresh scientific discoveries in the fields of aviation, medicine, engineering and electronics, to mention only a few. I For qualified men it offers the groundwork of a useful and valuable career, as well as the opportunity to serve in the preservation of world peace.
