"It's Easy To Fly A B-l7' Say Sgts.

BALBOA, C. Z., (P) - Appar- ently it isn't very hard to fly a B-17.
 Two American sergeants, ac- cused of taking an unauthorized 1,700-mile joyride in flying fort ress across some of the toughest terrain in the world, said today they didn't have much trouble on their little jaunt, although neither had ever been at the controls be- fore.
 M/Sgt. Glen D. Woods of Mum cie, Ind, and S/Sgt. Theodore S.. Ravens, Jr., of Washington, N. J., arrived at U. S. Caribbean Air Command headquarters Wednes- day night from Caracas, Venezue- Ia, where military authorities said they landed the B-l7 Monday al ter a flight across the Andes from Galapagos.
 They can be charged with mis- appropriating army property, an offense which carries sentence of up to five years in prison.
 But apparently they weren't greatly worried. Said Woods:
 "This was the most fun I've had since the war!"
 Both said they had observed pi- lots in flight-Woods in IT mis- sions over Europe, Ravens with the airforce in New Guinea-and it looked pretty easy.
 Woods said he handled the con- trols the whole way-juSt did ev- erything he had seen pilots do.

100000 electron volts through Its
new betatron in preparation for next

Prof. Donald w. Kerst, Of the

The 75,00O,00O volt machine,

for the new machine, is itself useful
for atomic research within its energy
range.
DR.. Kerst. who developed the origi-
nal betatron in 1910, said it is par
ticularly useful with the cloud cham
