The 35 junior and senior high school students from Greater Lansing will attempt to send aloft their home-made rockets30 in all-under supervision of the national guard. The unique expedition combines efforts of six industrial firms and organizations, plus the aid of the teachers. The Junior Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring the shoot and financing a major portion of the costs. Oldsmobile is supplying six cars to transport the students and seven teachers one a woman-to the national guard camp. Industrial Welding and Brazing company is furnishing the truck to haul the 30 rockets, their launchers and 500 pounds of propellant.

LEAVE AT 7 Jacklin Steel company and Wolverine company have proprovided materials and their facilities for the building of launching frames and a static tester. The caravan, which will leave from the Civic Center at 7 a. will arrive at camp at about 11 a. m. After lunch the boys, under the supervision of Capt.

John C. Stabler of Lansing, administrative assistant to the adjutant general's office, national guard, test their static firings on an ingenious device built by Jaycee Kevin Moran. The tests are designed to gauge the thrust of each rocket to determine range. A of powdered zine and powdered sulphur will be used for fuel. The boys also have designed their own control devices! to ignite fuel-probably the remote, trickiest problem of the exer- cise.

TEACHERS HELP The teachers will work closely with their students to solve problems in trajectory and distance with the aim of making the project one of applied knowledge rather than a Fourth of July fireworks display. Capt. Stabler has stressed that the whole idea is -that the boys will know a lot more about when the firing is over. The actual shoot will take place Sunday. Five firing ranges are being made available and each rocket will be fired in turn.

With static firing data and the use of sextants the group plans to plot the range of each rocket and recover it. Two boys have been working on a means of parachuting the nose on their rockets to prevent damage. Heading the 13-man Jaycee contingent on the expedition are Dave Page and Jim Harp, who were in charge of organizing the rocket expedition as a project of the Jaycee civic improvement committee, chairmaned by Bob Homrich. Students making the expedition are Errol Kaufman, Dick Lape, Bill McClennan, Bob Servis and Dick Welhusen of J. W.
