Post
EurIy Christmas Question

A forerunner of the Christmas
questions comes today: "Is there
any tactful way Of suggesting to
friends that we stop exchanging
Christmas presents? I wouldn't
be at all surprised If they feel
about it just as do but each is
probably waiting for the other to
say something"
Merely suggest frankly what
ever reason you have for discon.

Husband and Wife Letterheod
Dear Mrs. Post: My husband
and I are professionals In the
decorating field and we have q
letterhead reading John and Jane
Doe. Generally all letters from
people who don't know us come
addressed just that way, without
titles. I suppose people don't know
whether we're husband and wife
or brother and sister. Have you
any suggestions?
Answer: In smaller letters under
the John and Jane Doe, you might
have printed in parenthesis (Mr.
and Mrs Tohp DOe)
Emphasis on New House
Dear Mrs. Post: Now that we're
in our new house we'd like to have
"Open House" Should this be
given between the hours Of and 7
or during evening hours? Also
please tell me what would be the
least food necessary at either
time?
Answer: You alone will have TO
decide which hours would be most
practical for you as well as q
majority Of the guests you are
asking. At either time very little
food would be necessary as it is
primarily "house showing" Two
accompanying items for example.
such as little sandwiches and q
cold beverage, or hot coffee and
cakes would be suitable.
Prospective Mother os
Brides Attendant
Dear Mrs. Post: Is it out Of
place for bride to have her sister
(who is noticably on the way to
having baby as her matron Of
honor?
Answer: 1t would be unsuitable
if this is wedding with other
attendants and a procession up
the aisle. But at q very small
house wedding and she the only
attendant, it would be quite all
right.

Most Work Secret
AS for PICS postwar opera
tional work, most of it Is secret.
A great deal involved its role in
Operations Crossroads at Bikini.
Also, several PIC men accom-
panied Admiral Byrd to the South
Pole for Operation Highjump.
They helped in permafrost re-
reach and in studies to determine
how thick the ice must be to hold
certain weight planes, etc. Scores
of pictures were sent 10000 miles
back to Washington in a matter
of a few minutes via the magic
of facsimile.
Photographic interpreters were
on the staffs of the contending
forces in almost all postwar train
ing maneuvers and are now prov
ing their indispensability to ade-
quate intelligence on the fighting
fronts of Korea.
The newly matured science has
come a long way since Capt.
Quackenbush and his naval school
staff grappled with their first
problem print more than eight
years ago. The impact of PI on
the military mind during the re-
cent war, although not immedi-
ate, was great.
Success of P-Eyes in plotting
underwater obstacles and beach
gradients at Normandy and Oki-
nawa, in discovering the first
operational German jets and the
vi and W. rocket-launching
sites and testing grounds, won
over lot of skeptical and critical
commanders. Photographic in
terpretation's role In future war

would provide easy and rapid exit
for the assault troops. The result
was that the men had to be re-
embarked and landed on another
beach many miles away. Fortu-
nately there was no enemy opposi-
ton and the withdrawal was sue
ceSSful.
The PIC is making great strides
in research and development,
thanks to it's staff of experts
and it's liaison with university
groups, the Naval Research Lab
oratory and other military-scien-
tif1c organizations.
Improvements of television pho
Biography for military use is one
of it's top postwar projects. Prog
ress has been so great that pic
lures are almost as good as those
taken by conventional camera
TV has been successfully en-
ployed on two operations-Bikini
and Antarctica-and, according to
Capt. Quackenbush, its potentiali-
ties are almost unlimited. The
captain emissions ground or carrier
controlled robot planes, whose
television cameras can record the
scene below and send it back to
receiving screens at headquarters
There, conventional photographs
may be taken for more leisurely
and detailed study. Television-
equipped rockets also may be
close at hand, he believes.
Another high-priority project is
the development of radarscope
and Instrumentation photography
and Interpretation. Cameras, of
course, have limitations. One is
that they can't pierce cloud banks
to get pictures. The Navy re-
fused to bow to the whims of
nature and plunged into radar
photography.
Development of infrared and
color photography for night work
and anti-camouf1age jobs is be-
ing pressed. Also, it is possible

study of some $4,000 top secret
photographs taken at the Bikini

When an officer student fin-
ishes the 40-week course at the
center. he is able to distinguish
ball-bearing plant from an

3. Comparison with the last

Best Types for Job

P1 is not a simple task. For
instance, an interpreter, in noting
coastal defenses of an enemy, is
expected to determine among
many other items, the number of
guns, their types and locations,
the sectors of fire and range, loca-
ton and description of beach de-
fenses. including fire trenches,
barbed wire. exit barriers, tank
traps and pill boxes.
Wartime experience has shown
that the best men for Pr and
photogrammetry are architects,
biologists, city planners, industrial
engineers. urban geographers and
forecasters-men with plan-view
training. This was not an imme-
diate discovery. In fact. lawyers
at first were thought to be the
best bets.

Almost every kind of technical

staff, or may be called in for his
special skills when necessary.
The student is not overwhelmed
with Interpretation techniques. He

subjects as guided missiles, stra-

atomic intelligence. He learns also
how rubberized terrain models are
made in the PICS laboratory and
