ION TRANSFORM AIR INDUSTRY

California when the new Douglas and Vega factories go to work, a big majority are bombers. Lockheed and Douglas both have high speed attack bombers which for straight away flying are said to beat any thing in Germany's fighter class. North American is making medium bornbers, trainers, and a single place fighter. Northrop and Vultee both are turning out dive bombers for Great Britain plus some jobs for this country. In San Diego, Con- solidated has orders totalirg S325,- 100000 for huge four.motored bonn bers and medium bombers for our army and navy and for Britain. Ryan, also in San Diego, is mak- ing trainers and army bombers.
 Douglas giant Bis has been get ting a lot of attention lately, but Is not likely to be duplicated soon. A ship with 212-foot wingSpread and a length of 132 feet isn't some- thing that readily could be put on production line. And besides, in the four years of its design and construction, the worlds largest plane actually was considered ob- solete for offensive action before 1t ever flew. Its 7500-mile range and 18-ton bomb capacity remain iin- pressive, but It's relatively snail-like cruising speed of 186 miles an hour and It's operating altitude of 22,000 feet condemn 1t. From this evperl- ment, though, Air Corps experts be- lieve will come something really sensational in super-bombers.
 LoCKHEED P-3s IS
 PHENOMENAL
 Since faster bombs now are oper- ating at 30,000-foot attitudes, and effective pursuit work must be still closer to the stars, Lockheed's s beautifully efficient, almost electri- cally destructive P-38 is rated as the most modern airplane in the world.
 Performance is so phenomenal that details are forbidden; 1t will go more than 400 miles an hour" and behaves nicely at more than 35,000 feet"
 The two engines will yank 1t upward at skyrocket speed. It can climb 1900 feet straight up before stalling. It mounts @ cannon that fires an explosive shell, plus two .50-caliber machine guns and two .30-caliber machine guns. It's 50 good that our Air Corps wants $52,000, 900 worth. The British wants all they can get, and the sky's the limit.

INCI RAYS CORNER -Neres Tell Bon What Find Out

We speak of hearing with our
ears, seeing with our eyes, smelling
with the nose and tasting in the
mouth. Yet all those things actually
happen in the brain.
If a person could stay alive after
his brain was taken out, he could
not see, hear, taste or smell. Nerves
lead to the brain from the eyes, ears,
nose and mouth, and the nerves tell
us what is happening.
OF course, we need our eyes 4
the nerves are to do any telling"
about what we see. Yet no one
could see anything If tho nerves
did not lead up TO the brain.
We could hear fairly well with
out the outer ears, although it would
hurt our looks" If the ears were
taken away. Most Of the work of
handling sound waves is done by the
middle ear and inner ear. The in
ner ear tells the nerves about the
sound waves, and the nerves tell the
brain.

Did you know that the human
head usually will At neatly into a
SQUARE?
1t isn't always So but as a general
rule a head is as wide as it is high.
IN other words. the distance from
the tip of the nose to the back OF
I'll head is almost exactly the same
as from the bottom of the chin to
the top of the head.
There's another interesting fact
tot be found in the position OF the
ewes. We are apt to think Of them
as being toward the top of the head,
but really they are just about at the
middle.
You might observe the position
of your own eyes. How far Is 1t
from your eyes up to the level OF
the top of your head? think you
will find the distance Is almost ex-
actly the same as from your eyes
down to the bottom of your chin.
When you make that test-on
yourself or a friend-remember that
! am speaking of the height to the
very top of the head. The head Is
higher at the middle than at the
front or back.

spades. He was not bidding ike a
madman, he was simply telling the
opponents what they expected 10
hearl
The bidding on the first round
presented a stock situation, one tnat
comes up time and time again. A
vulnerable player opens the bidding
and gets a raise from his partner;
IN the meantime. the non-vulneraole
onponents bid and confirm some
other suit defensively. In that Sit
nation. 9 times out of 10 the vul-
nerable players bid game IN their
suit, but their non-vulneraDle op-
ponents sacrifice.
East didn't expect to make four
spades. but he was morally certain
that one of the opponents would
eacrifice at five diamonds, con-
tract which East thought could be
defeated at least two tricks. He was
right on both counts: Four spades
could not have been made. but the
opponents did bid five diamonds
and that contract was defeated two
tricks.
We won't deny the fact that this
type of swindle is dangerous on
occasion. Switch the king of dla-
monds and the king of clubs, and
South might decide to double four
spades. But that danger is less Sc
rious than that of a partner who
refuses to give up. For example,
# West had bid five spades, the
fat would have been IN the fire! We
repeat, however, that this stratagem
works about times out of 10.

much encouraged by the fact that
he supported your diamonds again.
A grand slam is much too risky, since
he may not have the club ace, or he
may have the club ace, but lack the
