HERSHEY Hersheypark creates a never-ending world of thrills with rides that go up, down, around, over, under, and back again, much to the delight of its guests.

New for 1980 are two thrilling family rides, the Cyclops and the Pirat. These rides are two of the most popular rides in the theme park industry today, said Robert B. Payne, assistant general manager at Hersheypark. The Pirate and fThe Cyclops were selected for Hersheypark because we know they will appeal to a large segment of the parks Her-sheyparks guests." Weve expanded Her-sheyparks boundary northward by over an acre to accommodate these rides, states Payne. The structures of these new rides are especially attractive and well lit.

They will look quite impressive whether close up or at a distance. Armed Forces Day 1980 will be celebrated at Aberdeen Proving Ground from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 10. The theme for this years open house activities is U.S.

Armed Forces, Strong and Ready. The day is designed to be a family affair, with tours, demonstrations and exhibits that should appeal to every age group. Juried Show Planned By Museum The Baltimore Museum of Art has announced its plans for the 1980 Maryland Biennial juried competition and exhibition, scheduled to be shown at the museum in the newly-renovated main floor galleries from Dec. 14, 1980 through Feb. 1, 1981.

Guest curator of the exhibition will be Robin Greene, formerly the museums community coordinator. She will work with the museum staff in coordinating the details of the exhibition. The museum will once again invite a curator and an artist to serve as jurors for the 1980 Maryland Biennial. The names of the jurors will be announced shortly. Entry forms and the prospectus will be amiled out in early June.

Professional artists residing in Maryland who wish to receive the Prospectus and entry forms should contact the museum at 396-7101 (Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.), to have his or her name placed on the Artists Biennial mailing list. A main event in the festivities will be the public viewing of some of the equipment currently being tested here, and will include many of the armaments of the 80s. The Proving Ground is unique in Americas defense plan because of the wide variety of research and test projects conducted here, ranging from selecting new field uniforms to developing the latest in armored vehicles. Many of the people and most of the pieces of hardware that will contribute to Americas strength and readiness during the decade ahead will be on hand to help an anticipated 20,000 plus visitors see and become familiar with the Proving Grounds role in the defense of Americas liberty.

Other scheduled highlights of the day-long affair include bus tours of many areas on the installation, such as the Munson Automotive Test Course and the site of historic Old Baltimore. The Maryland National Guard will hold rapelling and parachuting demonstrations and Maryland Air National Guard wul conduct a fly-by over the Main Front demonstration area. Other items of interest on the agenda include tours of the U.S. Army Ordinance Museum, a display of Warsaw Pact weaponry, exhibits and demonstrations from nearby universities and other groups that support the Proving Ground mission. Food and drink stands will be available at central locations around the post, with free bus transportation provided to and from exhibit and tour areas.

There will be adequate public facilities. When we begin looking for new rides, we have to consider who the ride will appeal to, what the capacity will be and what its reputation in the business is, reports Payne. The Pirat is a swiftly moving pendulum motion boat ride that hurls its seaworthy adventurers high above sea level, then swoops them down only to have them repeatedly tossed above the stormy sea. The journey finally ends with the crew safely anchored. The Pirat boat reaches a height of 66 feet at full swing.

The actual boat size is 86 feet wide and 43 feet long. This popular boat ride is manufactured by Wilhelm Huss West Germany. Ride capacity per hour is 1,400 riders. The Cyclops, a centrifugal force spinning wheen, begins to build suspense from the moment guests take their places on board. The suspense increases as the Cyclops starts to move, slowly at first, than in- Major, and The Lamentations of Jeremiah by Alberto Ginastera, as well as several shorter pieces such as William Dawson's Evry Time I Feel the Spirit and Ernst Tochs Geographical Fugue.
