Stockpile Holds A-Arithmetic In this stockpile lies what the President called "the awful arithmetic of the atomic bomb" an arithmetic which the world only began to sense after the atomic bombs blasted Hiroshima and 1 I isfc Oi toft 1 AV nn a nn mm Nagasaki eight years ago. I What does the United States have today in this "chamber of horrors" that we didn't have back; in 1945 and 1916? TOO MUCH TOYLAND: The long tour of department store toylands proved too much for this tiny tot. After playing with many of the toys and viewing hundreds of others, she fell fast asleep on her mother's shoulder (Courant Photo).

A little more than seven vears1 ago I rode in a B29 which cruised just outside Bikini lagoon in the; Pacific. We were waiting to see-what happened when the world's1 fifth atomic bomb exploded be-j neath the waters of the lagoon, The lagoon was mirror-smooth and the coral sand of the atoll gleamed on the crescent beach fringed with coconut palms. A fleet of warships and smaller ves sels rode at anchor, the "guinea pig" fleet for testing the destruc HAFFHE tive power of the bomb. Bikini Results Only Prelude It was like standing beside a Am rrf I Or quiet pool and looking down on a toy lieet put there by some child. Ana then came the explosion.

A massive column of water, perhaps a half-mile wide, shot suddenly into the sky. The lagoon was transformed into a cauldron of flame and smoke and steam. Battleships art of disposing of "bad guys" via the quick draw and well-aimed shot Another Photo, Pg. 4 Oh, they're still enthralled by the new and ever growing collection of mechanical toys; they'll promise their parents everlasting good behavior for a bicycle or paint set; and, if allowed, they'll soend hours staring in wonder at the electric train setups. But when it comes to making a first choice, the great majority will point without hesitation to the artillery counter.

A kid just doesn't rate with the neighborhood gang unless he "packs hardware' on his hip or cirwked in his arm. OI? Standbys Popular And, strangely enough, the ray guns and weapons used by space cadets seem to be fading in popularity. They are being replaced by the old standbys cowboy pistols, army-type rifles and G-men tommyguns. The artillery rests in complete disarray atop the counter. It's impossible to maintain an orderly display because the tots feel they aren't getting a fair deal in their tour of toyland unless they get an opportunity to squeeze off a couple of quick bursts at the clerk or their parents.

The mild winters of the past few years appear to have made a lasting impression on the youngsters. No longer do they pause to gaze longingly at the sleek racing sleds propped against the wall. Many of them have never enjoyed a breath-taking slide down a snow covered hill and the forlorn sleds go almost unnoticed by the milling throng. If they possessed wheels, it would be another matter. Anything with wheels is highly popular and the toy manufacturers seem to have outdone themselves this year, turning out an amazing assortment of vehicles from go-carts to bulldozers.

Then there's a Rickey Jr.

doll, named after the "I Love Lucy" show's baby, which is selling rapidly, mainly because "it wets." Craft items things like model plane kits, old fashioned automobile building sets, and paint kits may not be overly popular with the kiddies but the grown-ups seem to feel that they make proper and constructive Christmas gifts. Most of the youngsters are steered away from one counter by their frantic parents. That's where they sell the toy musical instruments. The clarinets, trumpets, trombones and ukeleles are fine gifts but only at the expense of peace and quiet in the home. Many Toys for Girls Little girls, who used to be satisfied with a doll or two, now have a greater variety of playthings than ever before.

To augment the dolls, some of the stores have a complete apparel shop so that the young ladies can dress them up for any occasion. There are real miniature cake mix sets which permit the girls to bake their own cakes and these arm cruisers were pitched about like playthings. 1 The water column rose spvpmI thousand feet.
