Now, in the Great Smokes, they
would make their first big test.
A CAT Army cargo plane took
off near Gatlinburg. Tenn, with
Captain Ford aboard. and w. P.
Frawley, of the Bell Laboratories.
Loaded in its cigar-shaped fuselage
were Is large crates. battened to the
floor. They were filled with specially
wound spools of field telephone wire.
all joined together so the wire would
feed continuously from one box after
another. From the planes open
cargo hatch trailed long l0-inch
tube, like big stovepipe. The wire
was to be paid out through this tube.
Parachute Opens
BLYE and Ranger Needham stood
in small clearing down below as the
CAT scared overhead.
Thar she blows!' beloved Need
ham as miniature parachute opened
in the wake of the plane 1t was
parachute only Sc inches in diam
eter, weighted with 20 pounds of
chain, and its job was to carry down
to earth the leading end Of the tele-
phone wire.
A few moments later. the thin
line of wire in the sky became visible
and it trailed the little parachute
gently to the ground.
Evening star., 1945-06-17

Blye and Ranger Needham ran to
it, nimbly hurdling a thicket. and
in few moments they had connect
ed up field telephone unit.
Hello. plane?" Blye gasped into
the phone.

VOICE. said Captain Ford from the
CAT, which was just disappearing.
over the shaggy crests of New Found
Gap. He also had field telephone
unit, attached to- the end of the wire
in the last of the Is boxes.
Those simple. breathless words
were the first ever spoken by sky-to-
earth wire telephone.
Wire Streams Out
WITH a drumming that filled the
inside of the airplane the wire kept
paying out, mile after mile, stream
ing out of that stovepipe tubing at
the fantastic speed of 220 feet per
second. Sixteen miles in all were paid
out. and the tail end of the wire was
neatly dropped on target" "a
yellow panel 20 feet by six feet -
on the grounds of the federal fish
hatchery at Smokemont, N. c.
There, H. H. Fielder, another Bell
engineer, and Tech. Sgt. J. F. Len
festey connected up field telephone.
In a few seconds they were in
lively conversation with Blye and
Ranger Needham back at Cat
linburg. 1t had taken only six min
utes and 40 seconds to lay l6 miles
of wire.
Air-borne telephone will give our
fighters in Asia an easy way of
stringing their communications
through jungles and over noun
tains. 1t will give them contact
where they dare not use radio for
fear the Japs will jam them. horn in
on them. or worse yet - put di-
rection finders on them and bomb,
shell or suafe their positions.
After the war, airborne telephone
will be put to many uses. Within a
few minutes telephone contact can
be established with areas isolated
by food, fire or other disaster. A
telephone line can be dropped to an
isolated lumber camp or wrecked
airplane. Construction gangs can
loop phone wires over mountains
and across swamps or deserts as they
build dams or cut their way through
the roads of tomorrow.

Phone wires strung by
airplane: 1t couldn't
be done - but it was!

TINE experimenters decided there
wasn't a place in the United
States that bore closer resemblance
to wild and woolly Burma than the
Great Smoky Mountains. They
packed up their kit and kaboodle
and went down there.
Uncle, local character who lives
in mountain shack and claims to
be 100 years old, saw them coming
and he had his doubts - consider
able doubts. Uncle - that's all his
name is. just Uncle - has seen men
come and go in that desolate, tall
timbered area of New Found Gap.
But he'd never seen young fell
lers come there before to string
up telephone wire from a plane.
well, Uncle. you're going to see
it now" Chief Forest Ranger Johnny
Needham told him. He introduced
P. W. Blye, of the Bell Telephone
Laboratories, Capt. R. R. Ford, of
the Air Technical Service Com
mand, Army Air Forces, and Others
in the experimenting party.
"Howdy, pleased t'meetcha,"
Uncle said, "but if you ask me, you
fellers got a mighty crazy idea
there"
Hope il Works
WELL, it may have been a crazy
idea, this notion of laying telephone
wire by airplane. but good many
American boys in the China Burma
India Theater we're hoping - and
hoping hard - that it would work.
Forty-one men in one wire-laying
detail had been killed or wounded by
Jap snipers. Sure, in Europe it was
all right to string your communlca-
tions wire in the ordinary way, on
the ground, but it was something
else when you had to slice and
twist and wade and scale your way
through boggy jungles or over
craggy mountains.
Spurred by the needs of the Obi,
scientists had been working on air
borne telephone wire for two years.

A Message From

Mail is morale. Ask any
man overseas. He'll tell you
that a bright cheerful letter
from home is like e-minute
furlough.
So write cheerfully. And
write often. Frequent letters
even though short, are best.
And V-Mail is ideal for this
purpose.
V-Mail saves space and time.
V-Mail always f1ies-is never
left behind for lack of space.
1t is the surest way to get word
to your men overseas.
And V-Mail is the patriotic
way to write because it saves
much-needed cargo space.

An Independence Day Thought for our returning veterans:
 At the rate of more than 100000 a month, young men from the Armed Services are returning to civilian life. Eventually over 100000 of our na- tion's finest will be back with us.
 Absorbing these men into the econo- mic life of the nation is going to present difficulties. Adjustments and rearrange- ments will have to be made and help and encouragement offered
 But the problem part of this national readjustment has been over-emphasized -. The opportunity part has not been emphasized enough! For the returning veteran is the hope of all of us for a bet ter America than we have ever known before. The future of our nation is in his hands.

 Walt Disney was in town on secret mission" It had to do with the Army, but neither Disney nor the War Department, would say anything about it. When the whole story is written about what part animated cartoons have played in training our armed forces, it'l be fone of the best chapters in the Hollywood annals and it may be the beginning of something so all- fired new in education that it will result in revamping the whole system. Pictures have been used in education for years, but not the way Disney has used them. Walt tells me that 80 percent of his "plant" in Hollywood is work ing full time these days on war work. He has lost more than ITO of his artists to the armed forces, dozen of them in the WACS and WAVES, because lady animators, l once so rare, have become quite commonplace.

 If Scourby ever gets to town, I want an interview. If ever a man made 119 records before in con- secutive sittings, I never heard of it. The book, incidentally, in the midst of war, is Count Leo Tol- stoy's "War and Peace" that Rus sian epic which became a best seller as no other classic ever has. l: H: A:
 Despite politics, the progress of the war, woodworking confer ences of United Nations leaders, and so forth, one of the most ire quent topics of discussion in Washington these days is juvenile delinquency.
