Cooper's representation Of Capt.
Scott is a plausible imitation of the
almost legendary air warriors who
led the campaign in the Pacific.
He is an affable. easy sort in his
relations with service fellows, ten

to the air arm, and master tao

He is trinity supported by q

includes Jane Wyatt as the ador-

X ~
Delmar Davis as author and
director of Task Force" has pro-
vided Cooper with a dramatically
single minded character in Capt.
Scott. This is man who falls
in love with Navy flying when not
only the heart but the neck is in
volved in the risk. He fights for
her against all comers. battleship
Admirals, know-it-all politicians,
Japanese or whatever.
This assures him of a busy life.
but not such a busy one that he
does not have time to fall in love
with the widow of a pioneer flying
pal and to know an idyllic life
with her.
Cooper's Capt. Scott thus adds
up to fairly sentimental figure
despite the ruggedness of the
career he chose for himself. This,
of course, is dictated by the cir
cumstances that less personal
history of Navy flying would be
correspondingly less popular with
the movie public.
While many of the passages
Of Task Force" are grimly re-
mindful of the Navy's battle for
Americas life, the mood of the
picture is generally much lighter.
Its story starts back in the early
20s when the first Arms Confer
ence was obliterating navies as
If Utopia were due the next after
noon. Navy aviation was born
then with the building of a fight
deck atop former coal carrier,
the Langley. A handful of air
men. Cooper among them, was
ordered aboard, to see whether
they could stay alive long enough
to get carrier flying started.
For his success here, Cooper
was transferred to Washington,
where he was a signal failure In
promoting the service. BY the
time he had finished antagonizing
top brass, first line politicians and
powerful publishers, he was ready
for Punishment to Coco Solo,
Panama, and non-fying duty.
His next assignment was aboard
the pioneer carrier, Saratoga, and
after that the Naval Academy.
In the latter, again, his zeal for
promoting aviation got him into
hot water with his cold water

he considered resigning and enter

Meteor Display, Due
Tonight With New
Low in Temperature

The coldest weather of the fall
season thus far was scheduled to
strike the District area tonight
accompanied by a display of me-
teors.
And. to depart from the usual
routine, the Weather Bureau
added that there is a possibility
of some snow by tomorrow night.
, The bureau said the tempera-
ture will drop to about 26 degrees
tonight in the city and 20 degrees
in the suburbs. The lowest regis
tered here thus far was 27 on De-
cember 4.
Tomorrow will be cloudy and
cold with the possibility of rain
or snow by nightfall.
The low temperature for the
past "a hours was 20 degrees at
1902 am. and the high was 43
degrees at 1901 am. yesterday.
A high of 38 degrees is expected
this afternoon.
Display Due After 8 PM.
The meteors, known as the
Geminid Shower. because they
appear to come from the con-
stellation Gemini, will appear be-
tween 8 pm. and midnight for the
next four night. Washington
area residents will be able to see
them if the skies remain clear.
Some high altitude clouds are. ex-
pected tonight that will make the
sky "patchy" but the Weather
Bureau said the chances of seeing
the meteors should be good.
The meteors are not visitors
from outer space, but the disin-
tegrated remains of comets in our
own solar system, it was said.
They are visible only when the
earth's atmosphere intercepts their
regular orbits around the sun.
Meteors Are Explained.
The National Bureau of Stand
ards explained meteors this way:
"A meteor intercepted by the
atmosphere leaves behind it a trail
of highly ionized gas produced
when the meteor, travelling at fan
tastically high speeds Cup TO 200,-
900 miles an hour, rips off elec-
irons from its own surface and
from the gas atoms In the at
mosphere, leaving in its wake
charged atoms and molecules
which radiate visible light as they
combine with electrons."
