star stan Writer

The Navy today unveiled an
almost exact reproduction Of
its Polaris fleet ballistic missile
before some 1000 persons at
tending a seapower symposium
conducted by the District Coun-
Gil of the Navy League.
Rear Admiral William F.
Raborn, director of the Special
Projects Office of the Ordnance
Bureau, pushed a button I'M
yelling the model of the sea-
going intermediate-range bal
listic weapon which stretched
to the ceiling of the conven-
ton hall of the Sheraton-Park
Hotel-many feet above the
heads of luncheon guests.
The model. some 81 feet long
appeared to be rushing upward
through a sea of clouds into
space. 1t was painted white
with bright orange stripes.
Fired Successfully
Polaris is named after the
north star. 1t was announced
originally in January, 1857, and
according to the Navy. is well
along in development. A sue
cessful firing took place last
January.
Admiral Raborn said the
Navy has developed equipment
to fire the Polaris from under
water. This means solution of
the problem of getting it up
into the air where its rocket
engines can ignite. He said
the launching device is now
actual hardware and is under
tests even before the missile
carrying submarines are built. "
Admiral Raborn called on
the Navy League to help clarity
in the public mind the nature
of the Nays Polaris program
and it's role in national de-
tense. The solid-fuel missile is
capable of firing a nuclear
warhead.
Perhaps no program in our
defense plans illustrates more
forcibly just how much we have
had to change our preconceived
ideas of what weapons belong
where than does the unique
marriage of the missile of outer
space to the atom powered SUBJ
marine" he said. I'm the Po-
laris program we are talking
not only Of a missile but of a
wholly new concept"

firmly scheduled effort. not just
a loose-jointed enterprise with
no end in sight," DR.. Schilling
said the principal job is to de-
tect and track an incoming
rocket that might bear a hydro
gen warhead and travel 5000
miles an hour.
DR.. Schilling said the forth
coming hydrogen bomb test
series in the Pacific has no
connection with the anti
missile program. He denied
reports that there would be one
high burst to test a warhead.
The rocket specialist also said
he could see no reason why
military rockets should not be
used for scientific purposes.
This would m a Ike progress
cheaper and faster, he said.
In a speech last night, DR..
Schilling said guided weapons

Army's punch despite man.

power of a regimental team of

two points under February to 1913

Williams defeated the Mayor Of
Hoboken, the nominee of the Hud-
son County Democrats.

almost exactly equal share of the
