Sept. 20 JP). Hollywood hocus pocus has paid off in lives. i t.ove From the dark vastness of a movie sound stage emerges the now-lt-can-be-told story of a top war secret: Of how motion picture technicians, never closer to Tokyo than the Santa Monica pier, showed B-29 Super-Fortress pilots the best way to bomb Japan.

John Ajar. She married the Army Air Forces sergean; last night in a wedding marked by one of the biggest mob acenes in Hollywood history. The former film moppet had wanted a quiet church ceremony. But her fans thought differently. They started gathering at 3 o'clock In the afternoon in front of the WUshire Methodist Church.

By the wedding time, 8:30, a crowd estimated by police at 5.000 lined the etreeus. Traffic down Wilshire Boulevard, main highway through Los Angeles, was hopelessly snarled. Couple Nearly Swamped Forty-five city, studio and military policemen attempted to hold the crowd back. But they were not enough. When the bride and bridegroom left the church, a shouting throng of adolescents, middle-aged women and men nearly swamped them.

A police lieutenant finally or- rrH art aic' rrirrmCTH fho i-TTfs1 I and the couple, surrounded by eight guards, made their way to a waiting car. If the outside scene was hectic, the ceremony inside was just as Shirley wanted it. The 500 invited guests sat quietly in the church, surrounded by hundreds of pink r-ses. Only two-thirds of the seats were taken. At 8:45, Shirley took the arm of her father, George Temple, and walked calmly down the aisle.

For eight weeks, 80 officers and men labored every waking hour, and a score or more others were called in when needed. Working from many sources Including magazine photos, they built a scale model so accurate that later reconnaissance photos showed only minor imperfections. jThe percentage of accuracy rose 'even higher after reconnaissance photos were made available. Simulated Radar Not missing a single trick, the men of the 18th even devised a simulated radar prediction machin. This showed the B-29 crews what they could expect to see In a radar scope.

A total of 30 movies of bombing runs was made on the set. Then Icame the news that the first atomic bomb had fallen, on Hiroshima. That heralded the end of the war, and the end of Project 152. The men were assigned to other projects. The scale model of Japan was broken up.

Project 152 exists now only on films. But the men worked on it have the memory of high praise from Gen. H. H. Arnold, commanding general of the Army Air Forces, during a recent visit to the 18th base unit.

This fund will be in training films. Map of Major Targets The "set" of Project 152 was a huge relief map of the major target areas of Japan, built to the scale of one foot to the mile. It was 80 feet long and 60 feet wide and showed in detail every rice paddy, every clump of trees, every hill and river, and every industrial and military installation. It was complete with artificial fog and "clouds" fashioned of spun glass. Suspended above the set from an enormous monorail crane was a movie camera.

The crane was ingeniously timed to carry the camera across the scale model at a speed approximating that of a B-29 roaring across Japan. Set at a height of 56 inches above the relief map, the camera recorded what the crew of a B-29 would see. from 30.000 feet. Geared to move at 666 feet per minute, the crane simulated the speed of a B-29 at 400 miles an hour. Movie Used to Brief Crews The movies taken on this miniature set were flown to Saipan to "brief the crews of B-29s.

Warrant, Officer John R. Glass, a movie technician formerly with Hal Roach studios, estimated the cost of the entire project was less than half that of one of the many B-29 the project saved from destruction The briefing films he said ww the best way yet devised for showing pilots, navigators, and bombardiers exactly what to look for on a bomb- EARLE THEATRE New tl Del. rhon TODAY and TOMORROW T.
