Mich. took the swift-f1ying plane
over the target in dry runs.
They were ready. One more
wide turn over half-circle of a
dozen miles and they were hon.
ing on the target which showed
on the radar sight. At an alti-
tude Of about $4,000 feet and at
a speed of approximately 500
miles per hour the bomb was
dropped.
1t was seven mile short of the
bullseye. but the speed of the
plane sent the bomb plunging
onward as it fell. Maj. Smith
banked the giant craft sharply
and poured on the power as he
raced away. He probably was
Is miles distant when the mo-
ment came.
Behind and beneath there was
the hydrogen blast--the flash of
scorching heat that came almost
simultaneously with the great
light. Then the shock wave Of
the explosion reached out to
shake the fleeing bomber.
The timing was perfect-the
product of pilot skill and the
split second planning of hun
dreds of technicians on the
Plan called for detona-
ton at Ssh am. 1t came at
that moment. 1t came
at Isl pm. Sunday Daylight

Down on the observer ship Mt.
Mckinley. the sky was still star
lit. the ship rolled slowly. 1t
barely kept steerage way, and Is
and Is Federal civil
defense officials stood silently on
The port side. The ship was 80
miles from the blast.
High density goggles made
the blackness absolute. A pin
point of light pricked the black

enormously into a gigantic fire.
ball. No sun. nor hundreds of
suns. ever equal the light of a
hydrogen bomb.
Even through the dark lenses
of the goggles the light was in
tense. washing the sky in brill
liancy to the zenith and then on
to the horizon. The sea reflected
it. silver white. Then color came
into the fireball. 1t seemed to
dim slightly.
An observer cautiously pulled
down his goggles to take a look,
then snapped them back on
swiftly when the glare scared his
vision. The fireball. which had
appeared to rest its bottom few
degrees above the horizon at the

instant of its creation. now
started to ascend swiftly.
View Partly Distracted
Out of the blackness a fabu-
llous flaming sword thrust up.
Its point climbed upward and
upward. seeking to pierce the es-
Gaping f1reball. 1t was the glow
ing stem of the mushroom cloud
formed at the level of the sea
and earth.
Below the stem the ugly, dirty
gray of coral dust and spray from
the sea Swelled outward half a
dozen miles in what nuclear
Iweaponers call the base surge.
AT no time did the mushroom
cloud ever appear to observers
in complete, unrestricted view
Portions of it were hidden be-
hind strata of tropical clouds
during its climb TO an altitude
of Is miles above the sea.
Up there, morning light had
come. The sun tinted the tower
ing tip of the bomb cloud with
gold. Shakespeare winds pluck
ed at the mushroom. shredded
it and sent bits drifting swiftly
away.
An hour later there was Moth
ing that looked like an atomic
cloud. The spectacle was over,
but not the work. The scientists
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-05-21

went ahead with their multitude
of problems-sifting spectrums
of light, measuring fireball ex-
pansion against time, and read
ing pressure gauges and delicate
thermometers to make precise
computation of the explosion S
efficiency.
Planes Penetrate Cloud
Jet planes darted through the
bomb cloud to take samples
Some. like the supersonic F-101
fighter, would come back to base
so "hot" that the pilot dared
not touch his hands to the
exterior metal in dismounting
The pictures they brought back
would contain the first answers.
1t was unlikely the island would
show much visible damage. The
fireball did not touch it. The
explosion occurred two miles
above it. But the downward
thrust of the shock wave, i'm
posing thousands of pounds
pressure per square inch was
enormous.
A few hours later all planes
assigned to the mission were
back safely at the Eniwetok is
land base except for two three
on long range patrol. These fol-
lowed the drift of the cloud as
it broke up and headed out ovAr
the Pacific away from inhabited
islands of the Marshall group.

FORT WORTH, Tex, May 81
(Pl.-The Houston. Tex. Bank
of the Southwest has paid New
York Sculptor William Zorach
for sculpture it refused to use on
its new SIG million aluminium
and granite building.
Mr.. Zorach told the Fort
Worth Star Telegram he re-
ceived $4,000. L. r. Bryan. jr.,
vice chairman of the banks
board Of directors, said the set
Element was ''in the neighbour
hood of $4,000. Both agreed
the settlement was "amicable."
Mr.. Zorach said the banks re-
fusal of his work was "a terrible
disappointment and a great
loss to Texas" because the COM
mission represented the culmin-
alton of his life'S work.

be suitable to the banks exterior

However, an official task force
statement issued late this after
noon said:
Preliminary estimates show
the yield of the Cherokee was
substantially below that of the
largest 1854 test. although to-

the biggest of the current series.
Soviet Claim Recalled
Earlier this year, Soviet off,
Gals had claimed that Russia
had dropped a hydrogen bomb
from a plane. No official in the
United States challenged the
claim. Furthermore, it appeared
to be reiteration In another form
of a statement last fall by Russia
that one of its thermometer
bombs had been exploded high in
the air to avoid heavy contain
ination by radioactive matter.
The plane which dropped the
first American H-bomb from the
air today was a standard design
Boeing B-52 long range heavy
bomber.
No special changes in its bomb
bay design had to be made to
load the H-bomb OF to drop it
from its Shackles. Dozens of
times before the crew, from the
special weapons group at Kirt-
land Air Force Base. N. Mex,
had dropped inert duplicates of
the H-bomb.
Once before the B-52 had
taken off with a live H-bomb,
but had to return after a last
hour postponement. Maj. Floyd
A. Amundson of Grand Forks,
N. Oak, therefore had twice to
arm the bomb in flight in prep
aration for the drop. On the
first occasion he has to pull it's
fangs before the big plane
swooped in for a landing on the
comparatively short runway OF
Eniwetok Island.
Out Of Sight in Sky

Charles r. Smith of Pittsburgh,
Kans., opened the throttles of the
eight jet engines and sent the
bomber screaming into the air he
was of on a history making mis-
sion. He headed his great craft
to the east toward Bikini Atoll,
100 miles away. Far up, so high
that there was no sight or sound
of him in the dark sky. Maj.
