One of the divisions of the cor
poration is in the Guided Missiles
field. Much of this work is, of
course, top classification, but the adj

guided missiles that will travel at
speeds above the speed of sound.

stratosphere flying. The only thing
the speaker could say about this di-
vision was that they were working
on a unit no bigger than an auto
mobile heater, than would be cap
able of air conditioning a modern
home.
A third activity is the Nuclear
Propulsion Division, with head
quarters at Oak Ridge, Tenn, which
the corporation operated for some
five years. This important work is
now being carried on by the General
Electric Company, with whom Fair
child is working closely.
Coming down to the largest di-
vision of the corporation, the Air
craft Division right here at home,
Admiral Richardson gave the fol-
lowing interesting figures and in
formation.
The first plane was manufactured
here in 1888. In 1887 the plant
turned its attention to the military
training plane with which we all
are familiar, and 5000 of them were
turned out for the Air Forces. Work
on the familiar C-82 - popularity
known as the Flying Box Canvas
started toward the end of World
War II, and 220 of them were built
and delivered to the Armed Forces.
This was followed by the C-119,
capable of carrying load of 10000
pounds, that have been of such ire
mendous value during the present
conflict in Korea, and today the Ha-
gerstown plant is engaged in the
development of the detachable fuse
lage packet, which will give the
trailer truck feature to airplanes.
Discussing employment, Admiral
Richardson stated that back in 1910
there were a total of 533 employed
by the various divisions, of which
400 were at the local plant. During
the peak of the war IL, 400 were en-
ployed, with 1900 of them working
in the Hagerstown division, and at
the present time there is an overall
employment of 5000 people (321h
per cent of whom are war Veterans)
and of this latter total $500 were in
the local plant.
The speaker then gave this in
teresting bit of information relative
to the financial standing of the cor
poration:
The Fairchild Engine and Air
plane Corporation is the only air
plane company in the United States
that has never operated at loss
during the postwar years, and
while its dividends and profits are
relatively small, they are steady. In
1888 the corporation orders totaled
100000; in 1943 they totaled one
million dollars; and for the past five
years they have averaged forty-fve
million dollars. The speaker ended
this phase of his talk by stating that
new orders received from the United
States Government will call for not
only increased production, but also
increased employment at the Hagers-
town plant.

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY DOUG STEWART


The first game here with Whining
ton on Tuesday night was almost
identical with the first game the two
teams played at the stadium last
year.
Hagerstown won both games by
identical scores - 4 to - both
games went into extra innings -
Tuesday nights game went 10 in
nings and last years game went
eleven - both games were played
the second Tuesday in April, and in
both games the winning run was
scored after two were out.
But the big difference between the
two games was the attendance. In
last years game the attendance was
3,34O - in Tuesday nights game it
was 1,120!!!
Because l am such real ball fan
and a 100 per cent booster for the
home team, l come in from time to
time for quite bit of razzing when
the Braves happen to hit little
losing streak.
The trouble with some people is
that they seem to think that ball
club should win every game they
play and they don't want to sup
port, with their attendance, any
thing but a consistent winning team.
While it is obvious to any eX-
perienced baseball fan that the club
needs bolstering in some places-the
need of a really experienced catcher
is one of them-and l say that with
out any discredit to young Hersom
and Fitzgerald, both of whom are
doing a very fine job as rockies,
don't think that the need of these
requirements is not known to the
field manager, Dutch Dorman, and
the owner, Gene Raney.
AS matter of fact they were adj
vised over a week ago by the front
office of the Boston Braves that re-
placements for the club were ac-
tually on the way, and there is
good possibility that one or more
new players may be in the lineup
even before this story hits the
street.
The Braves, as this is written, are
right up in second place and they
certainly deserve a bigger attend
ance than we are getting at our
home games. So let's get behind
the club 100 per cent, win, lose, or
draw, by going out to every home
game.
The Junior Baseball League gets
underway on Monday evening, when
the Rotary Club team meets the XII
wants Club team at the Municipal
OJdQluIn at O.UU p ILL.,
On Tuesday evening, the Optimist
and the South End teams play at
900 p. m. at the City Park, and on
Wednesday evening, at the same
hour, the Herald-Mail and the Boys
Club will meet, also at the City
Park.
So, for a lot of fun, as we'll as
mighty good baseball game, why not
drop out to one or more of these
games and cheer the kids on.
Congratulations to Stewart Pax
ton, the retiring president of the Ma
tional Association of Approved Bas
ketball Officials, on being presented
with a plaque for his outstanding
contribution to basketball, which
carries with it automatic member
ship on the National Board, and also
on being appointed to the newly
created post of national director of
Public Relations.
Congratulations to the promoters
