TO Golesburfl Register-Moil, Golesburg, ill. Wednesday, Jan. 28, 1959 IT'S Policeman Danny Rohr seems a little amazed as the Great Hilry Page of Galcsburg pulls another feat of magic at the Junior Police and Junior Sheriffs meeting Tuesday night at the MHS Auditorium. Looking on is Police Chief Vincent Romano. Scientists Test Submarines Far From Ocean Away By ALTON BLAKESLEE SAN ANTONIO, Tex.

(AP) Here you are 150 miles from the sea. But here part of tomorrow's new deep-diving submarines is being born. Here there is rarely any snow. But this is the birthplace of electronic detectors warning of hidden crevasses lurking in snow and ice. 600 Expected At Chamber Fete Tonight MONMOUTH About 600 persons will be crowding into the Lincoln School Gym for the 40th annual Chamber of Commerce banquet tonight at 6:30 o'clock.

As befits the Prime Beef Capital of the World, the main course on the menu will be prime rib of beef au jus. Also on the menu are baked potatoes, green beans, chef's salad and ice cream pie. A few tickets are still available at the Chamber office. Presiding at the dinner will be Dr. John Ketterer of Monmouth College.

The invocation for the dinner will be provided by the Rev. Donald Weems of the Grace United Presbyterian Church, and dinner music will be offered by Betty Melvin. Following the dinner guests will be introduced, and citations and Round-Up Club awards will be presented. Officers and directors will then be presented to the guests. Addressing the dinner will be the guest speaker, Dr.

Nicholas Nyaradi, director of the Institute of the International Studies at Bradley University and a former minister of finance in Hungary, who will speak on "Peace, Justice or Both." Seniors Lead on Honor Roll i Boat Company MONMOUTH Seniors are taking the major share of scholastic honors at Monmouth High School, according to the third six weeks and semester honor rolls announced this week. Twenty eight seniors made the honor roll for the six weeks period, and thirty made it for the entire semester. Freshmen ranked second, while the juniors took third. Semester honor roll follows: Seniors, Gary Bayles, Joe Beard Karen Bowman, Joe Burkhard Ruth Coffman, Jean Delph, Eliza beth Durand, Joe Gren, Shery! Hewitt, Patty Holler, Lucy Jane Howard, Lucille Irwin, Phil Killey and David Long. Also, John Love, Karin Loya Mary McLoskey, Dixie Mettler, Linda Miller, Howard Oaks, Janet Here there are no rocket-launching pads.

But scientists are learning how to prevent liquid fuels from sloshing around in rocket engines and wobbling them off course. "Here" is the Southwest Research Institute, one of the nation's half dozen not-for-profit foundations doing research for government and industry, solving problems, seeking new products or techniques. It's an 11 -year-old, close-knit organization of chemists, physicists, mathematicians, biologists, geologists, engineers, and scientists of other disciplines. They tackle a dizzying variety of projects. Submarines can dive about 600 feet before water pressure threatens to crash their hulls.

Because submariners want to go deeper, SRI scientists are designing hulls which could go thousands of feet farther. Scale models are tested in a pressurized water tank system. Crevasses bridged over and hidden by snow have long been a deadly trap for explorers, and for military men and machines in the arctic and antarctic. SRI scientists developed an idea, tested it in Greenland. Their crevasse detector has probes or hands which reach out far ahead of a tractor or sled, and send back electrical signals to warn of a cavity beneath the snow surface.

The detector is credited with preventing accidents to scientists who explored Antarctica during the International Geophysical Year. In rocketry, SRI teams are designing internal structures in rocket engines to prevent liquid fuels from slamming and sloshing about, creating flutter in the rocket's course. They are also making tests to learn how long solid fuels in rockets stand up before they perhaps age or deteriorate so they don't fire properly. Another project is developing improved firefighting and fire-prevention methods at missile launching sites. About half of all contract work is for the government, the other for industry, explains Martin Goland, SRI director.

Institute scientists helped develop an air conditioner using gas as fuel, improving the efficiency of gas-air conditioners by 30 per cent. This promises reduced fuel bills for home and industrial installations. Geologist William Mather helps Texas industries develop native clays and minerals for building materials and ceramics. He's also interested in microscopic studies of dusts sucked into jet plane intakes, or auto engines, or dusts and soils abrading the treads of army tanks. No one on the staff of including 150 scientists is sure what tomorrow's assignments might be.

Currently, one product is an all- in-one fuel. That is, a fuel which can be used equally well by diesel or piston engines in trucks, tanks and airplanes. That would mean that some distant military outpost need be supplied with only one type of fuel which would operate all equipment QUADRUPLETS AT time became a bigger job than usual for Harley Ethington, tenant on the C. King farm, RFD 3, Avon, Tuesday when one of his ewes gave birth to quadruplet lambs. The four lambs, two blackface and two whiteface, arc being "bottle fed" by Ethington, who is feeding them milk, into which a stimulant has been mixed.

Birth of quadruplet lambs, Ethington reported, is something of a rarjty.

Get FASTEETH at any drug counter. DID SOMEBODY MENTION GASOLINE MILEAGE? Although we deliberately engineered improved gas mileage into the '59 Buicks, we have not made much point of it in previous advertising for THE Car. People's driving habits can get very different results even from the same car. So we are now happy to report that our plans for greater economy of operation have been very successful indeed in everyday owner experience. Owners report excellent records Most owners are naturally proud of their new cars, and may sometimes overstate a little.

But even allowing for that, listen to these reports from owners! A Detroit man drove his Electra 9,000 miles around the country, and reports a little over 19 miles a gallon. A Louisiana LeSabre, with Twin Turbine Transmission, after 4,000 miles is giving its owner 17.6 miles per gallon. A St. Paul man reports 18.1. From Atlanta comes 17.5.

From Pittsfield, 20. Some are even higher. Some lower. But these are typical. Tests confirm new economy a very thorough set of tests was run, putting Buick LeSabre and another car of comparable size which is known for good economy, through identical tests under all sorts of driving conditions.

The Buick came out best in every single test How Buick mileage was Improved It took a combination of several steps. New, more efficient Wildcat engines was one compression up to 10.5, better carburetion. In the case of LeSabre there is also a new, twin-barrel economy carburetor as standard equipment. All this to get more power out of the fuel. In addition, new combinations of transmissions and rear axles put this power to work more efficiently.

Owners also report QUALITY outstanding "Bast-performing Buick ever!" "My sixth Buick and the best I ever owned" "Best operating car I've driven in thirty years" "Much the best Buick yet!"
