Present Day E|eetronie Weapons ParaI|eIed Only in Science Fiction

WASHINGTON - Combat sold iers of the future will have an ar senal of advanced electronic wea- p0ns equaled only in the pages of science fiction, the U. s. Signal Corps announced on it's 98th birth day.
 Many of these futuristic devices, vital to swift atomic age maneu- vers, have been developed and proved in the past two years by the U. s. Army Signal Research and Development Laboratory at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, and the Army Electronic Proving Ground at Fort Huachuca, Ari- zona.
 In the early days of the Signal Corps urgent combat messages were sent from mountain to noun tain by flashing mirrors, sema- phore flags. or blinker lights. Wire telegraph was the only way to send message great distance. tance.
 Contrast this with the high-ef- ficiency communications systems of today and tomorrow that use radio and wire equipment to pro- vide almost st-instantaneous con- tact between forward elements and headquarters on the battle field. Consider the remote con- trOl drones which, equipped with special Army Signal Corps cam eras, can soar far into enemy ter rit0ry to obtain valuable nforma- ton without endangering pilot.
 The U. $. soldier will have the most refined communications sys- tenn in the world, capable of de-
Kodiak mirror., 1958-06-28

livering vital messages thousands of miles in seconds when neces- sary.. One new radio for the CO., ordinated network is 50 powerful that it can reach any spot on earth. Another bounces signals off the troposphere, using inflat- able dish antennas for extended range.
 All army radios, from the small est portable field radio to the gi- ant world spanner, complement each other to form swift, reli- able communications team.
 To protect our troops from enc my mortar fire, new radar with built-in electronic brain" can pin point the mortar nest after track ing only one projectile. Its read ings guide our artillery to wipe out the position.
 Another radar, the silent sentry, can spot enemy troops moving in the dark. This is the smallest known military radar.
 Future foot soldiers will also be protected by fountain pen sized radiation detector that slips into the shirt pocket and warns of dangerous atomic doses.
 Even army atmosphere obsary- ing has gone electronic. A special military radar developed by the Army Signal Corps can detect and analyze rainstorms up to 200 miles away-and can help to predict within minutes when they will strike. And an electronic equip ment has been developed whose high speed brain computes winds and other meteorogical con

t'itions high aloft, using radio Sig nals sent down from a balloon.
 The Army Signal Corps has de- veloped Missile Master, the air de- fense control center for Nike mis- sles. This system, complete with computerS and avanced search ra- dars, now stands guard over the Washizlgt Baltimore area.
 Army Signal Corps research and development has produced other futuristic devices: a camera that can take a picture 30 miles away, a tiny drone that takes TV pie lures, a rugged radio that clips on soldiers belt, an ultra-high- speed teletypewriter, a method to survey great distances by radar, an advanced all-electronic tele- phone switchboard system, and many others.
 These advanced systems are de- signed to work in close coordina- ton with the army's atomic punch-its missile artillery, which depends greatly on electronics for guidance.
 The Army Signals Corps in the past two years has made contri- buttons to pure scientific research, destined to pave the way for even more advanced field equipment.
 For instance, Diana, the power full radar with its 5O-foot dish an tenna, has continually beamed sig nals at the moon to observe cleo tronic reflections. At it's site the first radar contact was made with the moon in 1946. Since then, Di- ana observations have pointed the way to important radio advances. The newer and bigger space sen- try radar with a 6O-foot dish am tenna has been used to calibrate worldwide satellite minitract sta- tionS.
 In studies Of upper atmospheric. conditions, army scientsists have fired series of research rockets to great attitudes. Army solar bat tery systems were sent high aloft to find out how they would work in future satellite and are now being used in the Vanguard.
 h recent satellite efforts, Army Signal Corps research has provid- ed high-yield batteries and rugg- ed electronics parts and systems

 The month l9f June is, National Dairy Month and Acting Governor Hendrickson in a statement in Ob- servance of Dairy Month, said, "Dairying in Alaska dates back to gold rush days and today it is Alaska's largest farm enterprise, accounting for 49 per cent of our total farm income"

for the vehicles. It also provided valuable tracking data.
 And one of the future Van- guard satellites, a 21-inch sphere that will send back electronic images of worldwide cloud distri- button, is being instrumented by the Army Signal Corps.
 These recent advances, in addi- ton to playing a vital part in long-range military superiority, have provided many civilian bene- fits. They have made possible bet ter home and beach radios, i'm proved batteries and tubes, more reliable TV sets, and in general have boosted the quality of al- most all commercial electronic de vices.
 The U. s. Army Alaska Com munications System, the Signal Corps unit which provides com mercial telephone and telegraph service to and within Alaska, util lizes the modern techniques de veloped by Fort Monmouth and American industry to provide the Territory of Alaska with the latest in communication facilities.
