to kerb track of them, the following dispatch may help. By WILLIAM GALBRAITH United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON <UP> — The Armed Forces have put nine different guided missiles in the
bands of combat units and kre working to develop at least 18 more. The robot weapons now ready for action are of comparatively short range. The highest priority now is on efforts to beat Russia in the race to perfect missiles in both the 3,000-to-5,500 - mile ental” and the 1,500-mile “intermediate” range. In this, the services are engaged in intense competition among themselves. Defense < Department officials concede that inter-service competition caused duplication of effort. But they say some duplication is needed to make sure the United States gets the best missiles possible. Each of the missiles now in the hands of combat units is designed to perform a different task or to cope with problems peculiar to the service involved. Here they are: Commanded From Ground Army Nike-Ajax -Anti-aircraft guided missile guarding at least 13 major cities and four air bases in the United States. Range is about 25 miles, can reach planes at 50,000 feet altitude. It can be “commanded” from the ground. Army Corporal —Bombardment weapon for battlefield use- Can strike targets 50 to 100 miles distant. Can carry a nuclear warhead. A jam-proof missile, supersonic like the Nike, the Corporal

cannot be balked once it is launched. It has been assigned to troops in Europe. ' Air Force Matador —A 600 to 700-mlle-an-hour surface-to - surface winged missile that flies about 650 miles. It, too, can deliver an atomic punch. Units are in Europe. The Matador is now being replaced with a version having greater range and an improved guidance system which resistr electronic jamming. Air Force Falcon—A small guided missile weighing. about 100 pounds used against opposing aircraft. Interceptors can carry a number of these rockets under their wings. They are electronically fired and guided to the target. Navy Regulus— A naval version of the Matador which can be carried by either surface vessels or submarines. Navy Terrier— A needle nosed supersonic missile launched from surface vessels to knock down attacking aircraft- It rides a radar beam to the target and tt accurate to about 20 miles. Navy Sparrow— An air -to - air missle carried by aircraft to launch against enemy aircraft. Deadly at five miles. Up Tail Pipe Navy Sidewinder — The Navy’s newest air-to-air missile can destroy enemy bombers anywhere from sea level to 50,000 feet. It homes in on the infra-red rays emitted from the exhaust of a jet aircraft or missile and destroys its target by slamming right up the tail pipe. Navy Petrel—A guided missile launched by patrol planes against enemy vessels. The Petrel can be fired from well outside a ship's anti-aircraft defense, thus saving the pilot from hazards of anti-air-craft fire. The Army’s Redstone missile is not yet in combat units but may be soon. The missile, capable of carrying either nuclear or nonatomic warheads, is believed to have been fired about 200 miles. Successors to these missiles and a batch of new types are coming along fast. -— *- . ~«!—■ n- i ■— — -=~ At the Adams county memorial hospital: To Morris and Myrtle Byer Cooper, of Decatur, a son was born at 3:02 p.m. Saturday.
