BatherS
CONTINUED from Page l2)

With paydirt within their
grasp the Bathers wasted little
time.
Don Gallagher ripped off
gains of six, seven and five
yards and the Bathers went
down to the Trojan IL yard line.
Anderson made three yards and
Capt. Schroeder picked up two
on an end around.
MT. CLEMENS SCORES
On the next play Don Gal
lagher again hit the line and
went over standing up. Emmett
Gallagher's kick for the extra
point was blocked.
The rest of the half saw the
ball see-sawing back and forth
and neither team getting in scor-
ing position. Bob Kolp, who has
been changed from quarterback
to guard, turned in an excellent
defensive performance during
the period almost single handed
stopping several Trojan drives
in the bud.
The Trojans scored their Sec
ond touchdown early in the
third quarter when Bowling re-
covered a fumbled punt on the
Bathers' 10 yard line. Eldridge
went over in two plunges for
the score. His conversion plunge
was stopped cold.
The kickoff was taken by
Wesley Carlos who scampered
up the field weaving through
the Trojan tacklers. He was al
most in the clear and on his
way for the score when he
stumbled and fell on the As
yard line. The Bathers staged a
drive down the field with Dick
Fox and Gallagher carrying to
the Trojan 35. On third down

flat which would have given the
Bathers the first down was muff-
ed and Anderson kicked over the
goal line on the next play.
After another exchange of
punts, Maupin, speedy Monroe
back set the stage for the third
Trojan score when he ran back
kick for IS yards, the longest
run of the game. He put the ball
on the Bathers' 80 yard line.
The Bathers held on the next
two plays and then. Eldridge
took a shuttle pass from Maupin
and went the whole way. He
was hit on the goal line but fell

Claim Radar Paved the Way for Knockout
Atomic Bombs Which Cinched Axis Defeat
BY AUBREY A. GRAVES
written for NEA Service)

BOCA RATION, Fla. - Two
atomic bombs which erased a
couple of Japanese cities are
conceded to have been the pay
off arguments which convinced
the Japs the jig was up. But
another secret weapon, radar,
deserves tremendous credit for
the defeat OF the Axis powers.
The heavy curtain of secrecy
which has been drawn around
this incredible seeing-eye device
was pulled aside by the War De-
partment, and for two days
neWsmen were conducted over
and through this 5800-acrc Army
Air Forces base. Hidden in this
isolated and well-guarded por-
ton of eastern Florida, this in
stallation has been devoted ex-
clusively to the use of radar as
a military weapon, n d the
training of men to operate it.
Armed guards and barbed
wire still protect some develop
ments which the War Depart
ment is not yet willing to have
made known TO the public.
With due respect to the atomic
bomb, Army Air Forces, largest
users of radar. credit radar with
being probably the major sim

underwater fleet, his main hope
for victory, lost out just when
it seemed about to cut Allied
supply lines.
In the AAF offensive against |

build jet aircraft, and to make
improvements in war materiel.
Radar enabled the Allies to
knock out the experimental lab
oratories where the Germans
themselves were about to perfect
the atomic bomb. And in the Pa
cific, radar was used for naviga-
ton by the planes which carried
the two fateful atomic bombs
which punctuated Hirohito's ILL
conceived war.
USES RADIO ENERGY
Failure of the Axis powers to
keep up with the Allies in the
development of radar is consid-
cred here one of the enemy's
prime mistakes.
Radars action is dependent
on radio energy. A short burst
of energy, called pulse, is
beamed a certain way. When it
hits so m ct h ing in its path,
whether land. water. ship or air.
craft, the radar pulse is reflect
ed back. The echo is picked up
by a radar receiver, and makes
an indication on a cathode ray
screen. The radio impulses fol-
low each other in rapid success
sion, each coming back before
the next is on its way. Since the
pulses travel at the known speed
of light (186,000 miles per sec
ond) range and bearing on any
object is determinable.
Cathode ray tubes, similar to
television screens, which picture
the "pips" (returning pulses)
are varied in size and utility.
Most useful and widely used is
the PPI (Plan Position Indicat-
orr which gives on round glass
disk a map-like presentation OF
whatever the radar is scanning.
Intensive training is required
to give radar operator ready
familiarity with this light-and-
shadow language. But it is an
eloquent, exact and universal
language, once it is mastered.

Early in the war, IFF radar
identification of Friend or Foe
was devised TO distinguish be-
tween our own and n m y
planes. 1t works with a ground
interrogation which sends pulse
at an approaching plane. The
pulse triggers a set carried in
the plane which automatically
sends back reply in a certain
code fixed for the day. This
code goes back in a visual pat
tern. If an approaching plane
fails to respond with the cor
rect visual pattern, it is given a
hot reception.
