PheIon of London Is Big Man
In More Ways Than AN-Prep
BY Dick SIoy

| Howard Phelan of Landon joins
Harvey Dant of st. Anthony and
John Frazier of st. Johns as the
big men on the prep squad that
will try for its thifd straight VIC
tory in the annual All-High ALL
Prep basketball game Monday
night at Fort Myer.
Phelan, who stacks 100 pounds
on his 6-foot-3 frame, qualities
for that category in more than
just the basketball sense, how
ever. Out at Landon, for in
stance, this 17-year-old senior
doubtless is regarded as one of
the biggest men on its campus in
recent memory.
Phelan was at Landon six years
before switching to Georgetown
Prep as a sophomore in high
school. At Prep he pulled down
a SO per cent average in his sub
jects and then transferred back
to Landon after that one year.
Graduating With Honors.
Last spring Phelan finished at
the top of his class again and re-
ceived cum laude recognition. AS
a senior he still is leading his
class in scholarship.
His plans for college are CEN
tered on Yale. where he will take
engineering. and on NIT and Cal
Tech after that. so he can pursue
his ambition of studying nuclear
! physics.
The right people have sounded
him out on accepting an athletic
scholarship to Yale, but he has
declined. Il probably could get
the scholarship" Phelan ex-
plains, but my parents feel that
since we can afford it anyway, it
would deprive some other boy
who really needs the help. Be-
sides. you have to take a part
time job with it and I don't want
that interfering with my school
work"
Phelan. needless to say. has
taken advantage of Landon's ex-
tensive athletic program since he
first matriculated there. He
started football and baseball in
the fourth grade. picked up bas-
ketball in the sixth and last year
tried his hand at track.
He made at least one all-prep
basketball team a year ago and
so far this season has been
named to every one announced.
The same goes for last football
season. when he was an out
standing end for Landons I'M
beaten. united gridders.
He plays third base on the
baseball team but his coach, Ed
/ Barton, is thinking of making
him a pitcher for the season
coming up.
Aided by Confidence.
That will be all right with
Phelan. He has a world of con-
fldence in himself" Barton says.
He was a back on the football
team until we made him an end
this year. 1t doesn't make any
difference. He'll play wherever
you need him and he'll be sure
he can do a good job"
Phelan also devotes consider
able time to the extra-curricular
activities at Landon. Il partici-
pated in every school activity ex-
| cept the glee club and rife club"
he says.
When asked if he doesn't like
to sing, he replies: "Jeez, I

Knockouts Continue
To Feature Struggle
For Service Title

The series of knockouts which
have spanked the Middle At
lantic Interservice Athletic Con-
ference boxing tournament at
Fort Myer is expected to be con-
tinued during tonight's program
of 10 matches.
Two nights of battling already
have produced 80 knockouts or
technical knockoutS in 80 bouts,
and four of the Sudden-ending
winners from Mondays program
are back on tonight's card.
Fighting starts at 8 pm. in the
Fort Myer gym, and the pro-
gram is open to the public with
out charge.
Coming back tonight after
winning Monday night is the
Naval Receiving Stations two
man entry of Warren Peterson,
last years Golden Gloves middle
weight champion, and Ray Allen,
lightweight, whose 40-second
victory Monday night is the
tourney record so far.
In last nights bouts the close
race for the team title continued
between the Camp Lejeune Ma
rineS and the 82d Airborne Divi-
sion. Lejeune won five bouts
and the 82d four.
The evenings most sensational
fight was the lightweight bout
between Roscoe Elliot of the
82d and Harry Davis of Fort
EuStis. Elliot took a real beat
ing through the first two rounds
and seemed barely able to hold
on in the third round. But
suddenly Elliot scored with a left
hook to Davis body and followed
with a right cross that put Davis
away at 2:02 of the third.
That finished a bad evening
for Fort Eustis. It sent seven
fighters into the ring and all
lost.

All Tactical Aircraft
WILDE Equipped 10
Garry A-Weapons
By John A. Giles

All the Air Forces tactical air.
craft-swift Jet fighters and
fighter -bombers-will have the
capability of carrying atomic
weapons by December 81 under
present plans.
This development was a pri-
mary reason for the recent de-
cision to rely less on manpower
and more on airpower during
the fiscal year beginning July /.
President Eisenhower referred
to this in his state-of-the- Union
message Thursday when he said,
1--WE take into full account our
great and growing number of
nuclear weapons and the most
effective means of using them
against an aggressor. :"
The air arm also plans to have
120 wings by December 81 in
stead of the previously planned
113. There now are about 112
wings. an increase of IA in the
last year. A wing normally con-
tains 80 to rs planes. depending
on type.
A.F. Drops 76,S72 in Year.
While this wing increase is
being accomplished. the Air Force
is steadily reducing its overall
strength. as promised by Secre-
tary of Defense Wilson and other
defense leaders on Capitol Hill
last fall. During the last calen-
dar year. q total of 76.872 per-
sonnel were dropped-5,459 Of
f1cers. 56.324 airmen and 1908
civilians.
An official said yesterday the
effort to bring about better utili-
zation of personnel by the Air
Force-which has received Sec
retary Wilson's warm praise
would be continued. Reductions
so far, he said, were made "al-
most entirely from the indirect
support and overhead areas"
The service now has about
925, 900 officers and enlisted per-
sonnel-which is $4,000 below
authorized strength. It has missed
its recruiting goals the last two
months. but officials insist 1t will
not be necessary to draft men
Seven More Tactical Wings.
The increase Of seven wings
above the original goal for this
year will all be in tactical types.
With the latest type jet fighters
attack bombers and troop car
riers, the Tactical Air Com.
mand's mission is to seek out
and destroy enemy aircraft, to
strike at enemy ground troops
and communications and to re-
supply our own supply concen-
trations.
Tactical aircraft include F-84C
Thunderjets-which are in the
600-mile-an-hour class-and the
faster F-86 Sabres. During this
year large numbers of the even
Swifter F-100 Super Sabres will
be moving into the command
The B-26 light bombers, which
have top speed Of 370 miles an
hours will be replaced by twin jet
B-57S. p
Jet Fighter Interceptors.
Plans also call for equipping
the Air Defense Command
charged with defending the
country against enemy air at
tack-with jet fighter intercept
tors capable, of both night and
bad-weather operations.
In the field Of long-range stra-
tegic bombing. the air arm will
start training crews and mainte-
nance personnel for replacing
the B-36 bombardment planes
with B-52 heavy jet bombers.
It also is expecting that BAT
jet bombers will have almost
completely" replaced the World
War II design, conventional
engined B-29 and B-50 bombers.
