24 THE DAILY TIMPS-G AZETTE, Thursday, January 22, 1953 Test Aircraft Icing Atop High Mountain MOUNT WASHINGTON, N. H. (AP) -- Soldiers on the Korean war front are being saved by rugg- ed civilian research teams atop this weather-beaten mountain. Although the war is half the world away, the same winter ic- ing hazards that migt ground lifesaving helicopters, in Korea exist on this 6,288-foot summit. With a reputation for some of the world's worst weather, the mountain top is a natural outdoor laboratory for testing deicing equipment. Here Sihe world's wind velocity record of 231 miles an hour was recorded in 1934. Ice or "rime" has been known to build up to a thickness of seven feet on objects exposed yer to the bitter summit bl A big Se Hup Piasecki helicopter whirls its blades under the eye of technicians testing se- cret antiicing devices. Jet aircraft engines roar day and night in the battle against winter flying risks. The weather gained a tempo- rary victory recently. Construction had to be halted for the winter on a special new $121,000 helicop- ter testing apron. The new tramp will include a "bombproof" shelter for the crew. From bitter experience and near accidents they have found that the flailing blades of the helicopters can whip chunks of ice with the velocity of a projectile. Icing is particularly hazardous to the '"'whirley birds." Having no wings they depend cptirely upon the rotor to be air borne. Ice not only alters the airfoil of the blades but as chunks fall off they become fen to tear the craft apart. Similarly, the huge air intake of a jet engine poses new icing problems. The helicopter-jet research is a project of the Air Force and Navy partly under contract to a civilian testing organization, Smith, Hinchman, Grylls, Inc., of Ypsilanti, Mich, Vernon Hoskins is resident engineer in charge of the managing base operations. The Mt. Washington Obser- vatory, a private organization, is financed by numreous interested individuals, Harvard University, and the United States Weather Bureau to which daily reports are filed. From here, a few years ago, Wallace Howell, then of Harvard, experimented with cloud seeding by tossing dry ice into the air as clouds passed the summit. He was later hired by New York as a "rainm@ker" in an effort to restock thirsty reservoirs. Everything bulky needed on the mountain summit has 'to be {brought up in the summer and fall.

The 'cooling ef- feet" on a human is far greater here than in the Arctic where ex- treme low temperatures usually are recorded with still air. The crewmen live in snug, well- furnished quarters, chained and bolted to the rock, They are sur- rounded by ice above and below. Well drillers found some years ago 12 feet below the summit. Some geologists claim it is a vestige of the ice sheet that once covered At. the frigid gales blow, the parka-clad technicians are some- times forced to crawl on hands and knees between shelters.

It is probably the best spot for television reception in the world, the technicians say. them add, however, they never have time to watch what's happening in the Test of the world.

The suit is based on two editorials which appeared in the paper Dec. 7, A Jekyll and Hyde in Council, and the second, Let Us Protect Our Liberty. Both appeared paper three days before Trenton electors went to the polls in the 1951 vote. Mr. Ryan was defeated in his bid for a 13th term on [think a reference to 'puppets for council, municipal office in 1951. He sald he had read both editorials but did not believe that the second, in which no one was named, re- ferred to Mr. Ryan, Ray Bonisteel, now a Belleville {radio announcer who reported the ! council meetings for the Courier- | Advocate during 1951, said he had !read both editorials. Mr. Bonisteel was asked if he had observed Mr. Ryan serving any person's particular purposes. Mr. Bonisteel said he had seen Mr. Ryan serving the purposes of Senator W. A. Fraser and Orliff Alyea, prominent Trenton business- men. Mr. Bonisteel said he once heard Mr, Alyea tell Mr. Ryan what to do when certain measures came up in council, and that Mr. Ryan agreed. Mr, Bonisteel said Mr. Ryan told him he would be wise to leave his job on the Courier-Advocate because "we intend puting it out of town." Mr. Bonisteel said he did not think the Jekyll and Hyde editorial was written to defeat Mr, Ryan in the election, Norman Rickett, the next de- fence witness, said he would not have connected the second editorial with Mr. Ryan. He said he did not believe the Jekyll and Hyde editorial was aimed at defeating Mr. Ryan, although he said it named him.

Race Heritage Lost In Modern Schools Putting teaching in Canadian schools on an assembly-line basis with emphasis on specialization has resulted in spoon-fed students, he says. Students aren't as fit for life as their dads and grand-dads were because the students are not taught to think in patterns. Dr, Moore is a member of the advisory board for the provincial department of education and a member of the high school exam- ination board. He also is a rep- \ resentative of graduates on board of governors of the Unive: sity of Manitoba, He says the vast numbers students in high schools haw forced teachers to become specialy ists and education has become: compartmentalized. '"We are not giving to our viol pils--the ones who will be our eaders--the attention they should be getting," he says.
