Air Force Observes 50th Anniversary Powerful Display Os Speed And Strength (UP)—The Air Force began celebrating its 50th birthday Monday with a powerful display of speed and striking power. The fastest and newest jet fighters and bombers bared their deadly knockout punch in a series of bombing and strafing attacks against a mythical enemy. The occasion was the Air Force’s annual firepower demonstration, kicking off this year a golden anniversary. It also gstve a chance for some 6,500 taxpayers, dignitaries and military brass of three nations to see how the tax dollar is being spent for defense. , The fliers showed off a brand new birthday present far the nation’s military might. It was the first time a 847 medium jet bomber put on a public exhibition of “toss bombing” — something heretofore limited to jet fighters because of the extreme speed required. Toss bombing is in effect divebombfag in reverse. The bomb is 1 released from the. plane as it climbs instead of in a power dive. In its exhibition, the sleek, swept wing 847 went into an almost perpendicular climb, flipped its 1,000-pound high explosive bomb, then looped over and sped away. The bomb continued to climb for several thousand'feet after leaving the plane. A half-minute later, a mythical nuclear bomb exploded, but by that time the plane had leveled off and was miles away. Among the dignitaries on hand for the show were 80 businessmen, educators and labor leaders making a tour of Defense Department installations; governors of 11 states; dozens of mayors; 29 Japanese newsmen; members of the Canadian joint chiefs of staff and the Canadian war college, and Gen. Mark Clark. Dog Wonted HARTFORD, Conn. — (IP) — State Rep. Louis Padula of Norwalk noted that Connecticut has a state bird, a state flower aad a state tree but no state dog. He suggested a beagle to “bring the dog closer to the robin, the mountain laurel and the white oak.” It Worked NILES, Mich. — (IP) — John Jessup, 6, rubbed two sjicks together while playing in a closet and succeeded in starting a fire, just as she had seen Indians demonstrate on TV. His baby sister called fireman who doused the blaze with a pail of water. Set Example SAN DIEGO, Calif.— (IP)- Police Chief Elmer Jansen took off 12 pounds by dieting before he ordered a crackdown on his overweight said force. A Long Life ANDERSON, Ind. — (IP) — Mrs. Millicent Weer Huntley says the same light bulb has served as a night light in her home here for 55 years. Taped Statistics SCHENECTADY, N. Y. — (IP) — A roll of magnetic tape about the size of a dinner plate has replaced a 900-page report to speed up Social Security information of 30,000 General Electric Co. employes. Automation SOUTH BEND, Ind. — (IP) — Installation of traffic lights in Rosewood resulted in the dismissal of the suburb's two policemen as being unnecessary.
