Buried under miles of shifting,
drifting sands, in one of the most
desolate regions known to mankind,
lies this great desert storehouse of
Chile, which the Good Neighbor to
the south has opened to the arsenals
of world democracy. The nitrate re-

sun have scared every living thing
in this desert land. Where only a
few misplaced drops of rain fall once

of the barren wastes has withered a
deep brown. Just why Nature should
choose this inaccessible spot to bury
one of mankind's most valued treas
ures will go unanswered through the
ages. Perhaps it was Natures in
explicable way of compensating a
region so otherwise devoid of natural
features and resources.
In peace time, nitrates and their

RluftOn Officer
Physical Director

Stiffening of the athletic program
of the Army Air Field Base at
Dyersburg, Tenn, is taking place
under the direction of 1t. Robert
Schaublin, former Bluffton resident
the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Gideon
Schaublin of Cherry street.
The Second Air Force has stiff
physical requirements and Lieut.
Schaublin has been recently placed
in charge of the program in order
to prepare the men for the exacting
tests.
Every man in the unit will be
tested in order to determine the
state of physical fitness and after
several weeks of development they
will be tested again in order to de-
termine the amount of improvement.
1t. Schaublin started his program
with strenuous program of exer-
cises including push-ups, pull-ups,
"burpees", sit-ups, and miscellaneous
muscle-stretchers topped off by a
800 yard dash.
Carefully tabulated results are
kept on each man not satisfying to
the director. Officers and enlisted
men alike are put thru the new
training program inaugurated by
Schaublin.
The base newspaper, "Vox Pop"
states that the various squadrons find
that their daily workouts are now
tougher and more effective.

zoning of the 132-acre Bergdoll tract
on Wisconsin avenue to permit con-
struction of apartments was post

sioners sitting as a district council
yesterday.
Some 200 citizens jammed the
small courtroom to protest against
the rezoning petition. Most were
from the incorporated town of

recommendation of officials of the
Maryland Park and Planning Com
mission that final action on the
petition be withheld pending sub
mission of street plan, the at
torney for the trustees, James w.
Gill, altered the petition.
Instead of asking for rezoning of
the entire tract, he requested re-
coming OF 23-acre portion to per-
NIT apartment construction. He
failed to submit complete plans,
however, and Fred Stohlman. at
torney for Somerset, asked that the
revised petition be not recognized.
