NEWPORT BEACH. CALF. -
Once, at least. to most every boy
comes the day when he decides he'll
take a shot at defying gravity.
Mrs. Marge Hammer says her
son, Richard Reicher. IL. did it up
right. The conventional umbrella
from-a-housetop method wasn't for
him. She said he strapped a war
surplus parachute to his shoulders,
climbed to the top Of 2OO-toot radar
tower near the Newport Beach high
school and was carried into space
by the billowing chute when he
pulled the ripcord.
Richard reported that the start
was fun but the jolting landing,
which bruised most Of his body,
made him decide that once was
enough. To make sure of this Mrs.
Hammer cut the parachute up and
is making it into a nylon dress.

Thirsty Industries Face
Shortage of Pure Water

PHILADELPHIA. - Add current
shortages: A growing scarcity Of
clean water for Americas increas-
ingly thirsty industries.
The reason for this seeming para
dox GENES from Richard H. De-
Mott, vice president of ski Indus
tries, Inc, who says that the short
age is the result of 20-year lag in
production of high-speed water
pumping and publication facilities.
An estimated three billion dollars
must be spent by government and
industry for new equipment to avert
a "drouth'' of unpolluted water, he
declares.
ION many important rivers and
streams water becomes polluted rel
atively high upstream and is used
and reused so frequently that pres
ent limited publication facilities
cannot cope with the task DeMott
says.
u. S. industry drinks approxi-
mately 21 billion gallons Of this
basic element a day-equivalent to
twice the flow of the Hudson river.
Paper manufacturers consume
the greatest volume of water, De
Mott explains, accounting for three
billion gallons a day. Other large
users include oil refineries, chemi
cal plants and food professors.
Continuing demands for larger
pumps and other equipment that
win increase pump capacity. indi
cate that industry is seriously con
eerned about additional water sup
plies for the immediate future,
DeBott says.

Decrease Reported
In Army Enlist sllnents
High intelligence Standards
Result in Decline.

WASHINGTON. Eighty thousand
men are needed monthly to bring
the army up to normal strength. 1t
was disclosed by the war depart
ment. New fall enlistments are
running Is per cent short Of the
number required for bare replace
sment OF discharges, an officer said.
War department figures show that
enlistments for the first seven
months Of 1947 averaged 22.862 a
month. The army estimates that
10000 new recruits month are
needed to keep strength at present
levels, with still larger enlistments
necessary to build up to the 1.070,-
900 men authorized force.
Officials said the army could dou-
lIble its enlistments Immediately if it
could afford to scrap its new high
standards for admission. In one
month, the army rejected approx
inately half Of the men who applied
for enlistrnents-in the majority Of
cases for failure to pass intelligence
tests.
The army made its entrance
exam considerably tougher at the
beginning OF this year. because ex-
perience had proved that men Of
higher intelligence were needed to
hold down the many technical jobs
in the postwar service.
Before the passing grade was
raised. % out of every 100 prospec-
tive volunteers failed to pass the
test. In a recent month. the aver
age was up to IS failures out of 100
applicants,
In addition, 10 per cent Of the men
who appeared at recruiting offices
couldn't pass the physical examina-
tions. and small percentage was
rejected for what the army calls
moral disqualifications.

Arm In their determination not to
lower the army's standards in order
to make up recruiting deficits.
I've tried 1t once two years ago, -
a spokesman said. "We threw open
the ranks to almost anyone but
Idiots. and the result was nothing
but trouble. We just can't use dull
ards in the army now."

The pecan is perhaps the most
valuable native commercial nut in
the United States because Of its thin
shell and ffne-favored meat. The

similar to that of an olive. The nut
grows in husk as hickory nut

when ripe. There is almost an end
