ANNAPOLIS, Md, June 81.
"A man who went to sea al
most by accident took over the
helm of the Naval Academy
last week.
John Frederick Davidson
was a skinny 16-year-old in
Warren. Pa, thinking about a
career in law, when the chance
came to go to the Naval Acad-
smy. He was one of six chill
dren whose father ran de-
partment store.
my brother was a junior at
the University of Michigan and
he decided he wanted to go to
the Naval Academy" said Rear
Admiral Davidson. HE got to
know a Congressman while he
Ras working on a summer job
and got himself appointed.
When he found he was just
over the age limit, he sug-
gested I talk to the Congress-
man to see If I could get the
appointment"
So Spoke to Congressman
When the Congressman came
to town, young Davidson, a
public high school senior,
talked him into an alternate"
appointment. When the "prin-
cipal' appointee didn't show
up for his exams, the future
admiral received the appoint
ment.
Six feet tall and weighing
only 1T pounds. the youth sat
outside Carvel Hall in Annap-
pills eating bananas and drink
ing milk for two days trying
to put on a little weight before
taking his physical exam at the
academy. In four years, acad-

i28 pounds. At So, he now is a

Down the street from you a
scientist developing some awe
some weapon of war may come
up with an easier way to carve
a leg of lamb.
And don't laugh-it's already
being worked out in one of
the more than 1913 research
and development firms tucked
away in usually inconSpicuous
buildings all over the Wash
ington area.
The leg-of-lamb item-an
almost abrasion proof ceramic
material-haS been developed
by the American Machine and
Foundry Co. in Alexandria.
Researchers originally worked
up the item to provide coatings
for missile nose cones.
Now they have decided
there's little reason why this
same ceramic can't be used to
coat knives, providing blades
that will virtually never have
to be sharpened.
This is only one of the hun
dreds of fascinating projects
being undertaken by the more
than $4,000 men and women
who work for such firms.
For instance. American Ma
chine also has developed a
light switch that lights up in
six different colors, controlling
several electric circuits at
once. Made for the Air Force
to provide more efficient elec-
tronic control panels, the
switch, according to AMF Scien-
lists, has all sorts of other po-
tential applications.
In the home, the owner could
use a single switch to control
nghtS all over the house, or one
OF the switches could be used to
control several heating units in
a single stove.
