Mother Ships, Drones
To Play Ball Came
Through Atom Cloud
By Howard BIokesIee
Associated Press Science Editor

ABOARD THE U. S. S. APPALA-
CHAN, June 27-The first atomic
ball game will be played when the
bomb explodes over Bikini Atoll July
l. Mother planes will act as pitchers
and catchers and drone planes will
be used for balls.
The game will be to toss nine
drones at, through or around the
lethal atomic cloud rising from the
burst. This game will be played
against time. to be completed If
possible when the towering amber
and white mushroom cloud has
reached an altitude of 10000 feet.
The cloud is expected to continue
upward to $4,000.
Eight Navy mother planes will
station themselves on opposite sides
of the cloud in teams of two, at four
levels, the topmost level at $4,000
feet, the lowest at 10000. The four
mothers on one side will have one
drone each. Each will launch this
drone at its respective level into the
cloud, to be caught by the mother
plane on the opposite side, provided
the drone gets through. No one is
able to predict the result of these
atomic pitches.
Army Role Outlined.
simultaneously, five Army drones
will be launched by Army mother
planes The Army five will fit in
between the Navy levels, like rungs
in ladder. The topmost Army
drone will be at 10000 feet. It's job
is the fanciest of all the pitching
This topmost drone is supposed to
skim the top, or the lethal cap, OF
the upsurging radioactive cloud
All nine drones contain instru-
ments to record rays and heat and
boxes to trap radioactive air. Some
also have television in their noses

After the explosion two destroy
ers, the OBrien and the r. K
Huntington, will start a race with
radioactive death. They will not
be in the pie formation but on the
opposite side of the lagoon. in the
track over which the bomb cloud
will sweep. Before the drop they
serve as pointers to guide the
bomb plane, about 10000 feet above
them, toward the central target
ship, the battleship Nevada.
The O'Brien will be 30 miles out
and the Huntington So. AS they
hear bomb away" they will speed
full steam out of the atomic cloud
path. After getting away they will
circle back behind it for the job
of patroling this towering monster
and reporting where it goes.

HOUSTON, Tex, June 6-(P
"A three-foot alligator Ian
guished in the city's animal
pound Thursday - doing an

E. Ostendorf on the ankle.
But the confinement isn't

Jail an alligator" Cutrer stated
firmly. The alligator belongs
to a neighbor of Mrs. Osten-

Poundsman Kennie Poston.
Whereupon DR.. Austin E.

vention, the Saurian Can elliga-

sentence.
