i Aids British Planes to Bring Down Nazis eames By ROGER BUDROW

MUCH OF THE CREDIT FOR BRITISH VICTORIES in the air is due to American research, according to an article in the Hoosier Independent, publication of the Indiana Independent Petroleum Association. : British pursuit planes are using a high-octane gasoline developed by U. S. companies and made either in this country or in British refineries with American technical aid.

Gasoline is rated according to its “octane number,” which is a measure of antiknock value. When explosive mixtures are

highly com-|.

pressed they detonate spontaneously and prematurely, whereupon there is what is called “knocking.” Air speeds of 250, 300 and 400 miles an hour are impossible with a gasoline that cannot stand high compression. Germany's best aviation gasoline Is reported to be one obtained b#

! Roger Budrow

causing hydrogen to combine chem- |

cally with the gas obtained from coal and coal tar. This has a rating of 72 to 75. U. S. Army gasolines have a rating of well over 100. 2 ” ”

Steel production on 8 tonnage basis is at a record rate. Electricity output also is at a record. Building is progressing at the best figure since 1930.

Ninety-nine Hoosier veterans in the oil business will] be honored when members of the Indiana Independent Petroleum Association meet at Hotel Severin Wednesday and Thursday. The men, who have amassed 2030 years of work in the] oil industry, plan to organze an Old-Timers Club for oil men with 15 to 40 years’ experience. A banquet will be held for them. 1 To lend a little color to the welcome, the Standard Oil Co. will place a 37-year-old horse-drawn tank wagon in the hotel lobby. The association expects the meeting to be the best-attended gathering of its kind the oil industry ever held in Indiana.

The legislative program of the industry will be discussed at a joint meeting of the Indiana Petroleum Industries Committee and the Indiana Independent Petroleum Association. At this meeting at 10:30 Wednesday morning, |a committee will be formed, including representatives of major farm bureau and independent companies, to work out suggested legislation. Samuel B. Pettengill, former Indiana Congressman who served on the Cole subcommittee} investigating the U. S. oil industry, will be the first speaker Wednesday afternoon He i% author of “Hot Oil” and the recent “Smoke Screen.” He will be followed by Ralph W. Carney, vice president of the Coleman Lamp & Stove (Co. Wichita,| Kas., who will talk on {Welding the | Weakest Link.” A closed session will follow with election of officers and association business on the agenda.

Discuss Farm Trade

W. D. Cross of the Sinclair Refining Co. at Philadelphia, a former Indiana man, will be toastmaster at the Old-Timers banquet. The OldTimers Club will be formed Thursday morning. After the luncheon Thursday N. Bond Hedden of the Ethyl Gasoline 4 Corp. at Chicago will speak about farm trade and the 50 per cent increase in farm tractors on U. S. farms since the introduction of the| automotive-type tractor. R. A. Ludlow, director of the lub-

8 [rication committee of the American

Petroleum Institute, will speak and show a slide film, “Recommended Practice for Crankcase Oil Change.” Homer L. Chaillaux, popular speaker at the association’s meeting last year, is again scheduled.

” ” 2 That new Aldrich Family character, Herbert, represents the end of a quest that has been going on ever since the comedy serial went-on the air. Clifford Goldsmith, the author, had been hunting an actor old enough to be past change of voice but with a voice that sounded as if it were changing—and changing on the funny side. Also it had to be in contrast with the voice of Ezra Stone. . Goldsmith’s secretary, Doris Town- - send, suggested a funny - voiced friend she had in Philadelphia. He wasn't an actor; he was a brush salesman, but maybe he could be taught to act. So 24-year-old Herbert Lend was auditioned and Goldsmith whispered “Eureka.” His troubles in that direction seemed over but they began again the day the new actor drew his first . pay check, “Now that I have some money,” he remarked to Goldsmith, “I'm certainly going to a doctor to ° have something done about this throat of mine. I have a doctor who told me a small operation could fix my voice.” .
