Skiing south of the Mason
Dixon Line, dismissed as a
geographic and meteorological
absurdity less than IS years
ago, is now an accomplished
fact.
Within a days drive of
Washington are nine good
sized ski areas. extending from
the South Central Appalach-
ians of West Virginia to the
Central Poconos of Pennsyl-
vania.
No longer does the sight of
a ski rack atop southbound
automobile indicate a strange
lapse of directional sense. The
car may be headed for Hot
Springs, Va, Cabin Mountain
or Weiss Knob near Davis,
w. Va; nearby Shawneeland
just west of Winchester, Va,
, or Marsh Mountain near Oak
land, Md.
Washington area skiing has
grown from a single rope tow
on the slopes of Cabin Noun
tain, w. Va. to the rer "ckable
treStle-type ski-cars soon to be
operating close by the vener-
able Homestead at Hot Springs
Much of the enthusiasm for
skiing in the south has been
spanked by the Ski Club of
Washington, an organization
of nearly 1000 members.
Through its Cabin Mountain
Ski School, the club had taught
the sport to hundreds who
considered skiing as an activ-
ity reserved for the north coun-
try.

Corporations floating labora-
tory and Washington was one
of her stops on a 5,400-mile
cruise demonstrating new navi-
gatlonal aids.
Principal among these is said
to be the first radar scaled in
size and price for small boats
Others, also for small craft, in
clude a loran to provide ac-
curate position fixes regardless
of weather, a transformed,
portable radio direction finder,
an electro-hydraulic automatic
pilot and a gyro-compasS.
Spots BuOys and Landmarks
These aids are being intro
duced by the Sperry Piedmont
Co. of Charlottesville, Va, a
division of Sperry Rand. No
longer need a boatman grope
through fog. storms or pitch
darkness trying to spot ships,
buoys or landmarks. The
Sperry Radar 5 does it for him
providing, Of course, that he
has 81 ,495 in his pocket. That's
less than half the cost of other
radarS.
The device has two range
scales. one and 5 miles, and
operates either on IL or 32-
volt direct current. The pillboS
type antenna is only 18 inches
wide, 9 inches deep and weighs
less than so pounds.
The new radar is the small
est member of a family aboard
the Wanderer that includes the
$4,000 Mark 3, for big craft
with a range of 40 miles.
Small Model Tested
On a test cruise down the
Potomac we saw the shorelines
outlined in the small-boat
model, watched other equip
ment demonstrated and wound
up with an excellent lunch
served by a chef who is study
ing to be an electronics techni-
clan and resents compliments
on his cooking lest he stay
in that capacity.
Biggest thrill was to see the
concrete pilings of the new
Jones Point bridge standing
out Clearly on the miniature
screen Of the Radar 5 while we
still were more than a mile
away.
Also aboard is a new and
Evening star., 1959-11-20

somewhat larger model called
the Radar 10, designed for
larger boats. and having. five
range scales from one-half to
20 miles. 1t operates from 80
or 115-volt direct current or
110-volt alternating current.
The price tag is $3,700.
New LOran Compact
The new loran weighs only
38 pounds and requires less than
/ 2 cubic feet of space. Costing
81 ,495, the same as the small
scale radar, it fixes a boats
position by meausring the diff
ference in time of arrival of
synchronized pulses sent out
from a pair of transmitting
stations on shore.
There are so of these stations,
operated by the Coast Guard,
to serve nearly all major sea
lanes in the Atlantic and Pa
cific on a 24-hour basis. Ac-
curacy of the loran is said to
be within a half mile.
The radio direction finder
sells for $249 and there are
others on the market that sell
for similar prices. Nevertheless,
this one is interesting because
| it is only 4 inches high and is
correspondingly light. 1t has
three-band reception. short
wave, marine broadcast and
Coast Guard and aviation bea-
con.
Flip of Knob Steers Boat
The automatic pilot, includ-
ing a remote control unit, is
tabled at $1,289 and allows a
skipper to change course with a
flip of a knob. A weather ad-
justment prevents over-control
in rough seas and a rudder
sensitivity control permits
adjustment for all boats.
The gyro-compass is the most
expensive new product at
$2,986. Called the Mark %, it
is said to be the smallest on
the market.
Stabilizer of Interest
Like the small-scale radar,
the gyro-compass is a little
brother to the master device
used by the ship. The big gyro-
compass and gyro-pilot steering
equipment will be carried by the

Buoy adrift:
danger ahead!


The lights Of Mallaig lay ahead.
The Chieffain buoy was some four
miles to the northward along the
coast. Angus altered course to-
ward it. He steered in silence
toward the flashing green light.
They we're close inshore now. The
sea was silver, but the high cliffs
Of the mainland hung black and
frowning over the launch.
Angus throttled down. He took
the hand Adds lamp from its
bracket and switched it on. The
narrow beam of the light leaped
out toward the buoy.
ssDut that light outp' Mitchell
= snarled. There was touch of
panic in his voice.
Angus kept the light trained
steadily on the buoy. The name
Chieft0in showed in bone-white
letters as it turned in the tide. He
switched the lamp off and returned
it to its stowage. "Just to show
you I'm no playing tricks" he
said. eff you're going, you'd bet
ter get moving well be there in
a minute. I'll not be able to do
more than touch her on the beach.
You'll have to jump for it from
the bows
Mitchell didn't answer, and the
back of Angus's neck seemed to
prickle. What would the devil do
now? Would he make them both
land with him? Or would he knock
them both over the head before he
went?
Suddenly Mitchell was gone.
Angus saw him as a dark shape up
in the bows. The launch touched
and he jumped.
Angus put the launch into re-
verse. 1t drew off. He turned it in
a tight circle. He said, sIt's all
right now, lass. He's gone"
jeanne didn't move. She didn't
speak.
Angus headed the launch for the
n Chieftain buoy. He cut the en-.
CINE as the launch came up to it.
He left the wheelhouse and, as the
buoy bumped alongside, got a light
line through its ring to secure it.
He went back to the wheelhouse,
took jeanne by the shoulders and
shook her gently. Come on, lass,
we've got work to do" He pushed
her out of the wheelhouse ahead
of him. He didn't need her help,
but it would do her good to be
occupied.
The buoy's trailing mooring rope
must have caught on some snag
that had anchored it here - it was

Of course, that it had broken
adrift. Angus pulled heavier line
through the ring, then made jeanne
help himwork the davit to haul the
buoy aboard. That's fine, . he said.
''Now well be putting it back"
He took jeanne by the hand and
led her up to the wheelhouse again.
She seemed little more in COM
mand Of herself now. As they were
going in through the door, Angus
thought he heard shout from the
beach, and his lips twisted in the
grim shadow Of a smile.
Jamie had reported the buoy as
being about mile out Of position
to the northward, and Angus reck-
oned that was about right. He ran
the launch back along the black
line of the cliffs to the little cove
offwhich the wreck of the ChiefI1in
lay. There he put the buoy down
again, near enough to where it
ought to be. Its position could be
checked later, in daylight.
He worked thoroughly, unhur-
riedly, as he always did, while the
launch lay quietly at anchor, a
dark speck on the silver sea.
At last it was done and he turned
to jeanne.
where is hep" she whispered.
Angus grinned at her. Getting
his feet wet by now, I'm thinking"
1t was two hours since he had
I put Mitchell ashore. The tide
had been rising all the time. The
little beach Mitchell had landed on
would be covered soon.
The water would 60 on rising. It
was long while yet to high tide.
And there was no way up the cliff
where Mitchell was. There were a
few lodges at the high-tide mark
where man might cling, but above
them was a great overhang that
was quite unscalable.
Angus thought of Mitchell at
bay there under the great black
rock wall, with the silver sea reach
ing ever nearer and nearer. And
there was a feeling of calm satisfac-
ton in his heart.
The man was a murderer and in
the fullness of time he would reap
his reward for that. But he had
also struck jeanne, and that meant
more to Angus McKechnie than
anything else he might have done.
In due course Angus would take
the launch in to Mallaig and tell
the police where Herbert James
Mitchell was.
But first he had a personal pun
ishment to inflict. He was inflict-
ing it now. me Ind
