i CAMP McCOY, Wis, Jan. 24.— “The one outfit in the Army which ‘hopes and prays for bad weather, ,and which trucked all the way from :Michigan to Camp MoCoy, Wis. ‘seeking it, is now being organized here. It is a composite regiment of - the Fifth Division of snow patrol troops. And’ they need snowy, stormy, weather to do their stuff— which is experimentation with equipment and tactics for winter campaigning. - What they learn will become standard for all ski troops of the Army hereafter. Just as Fort Knox devises the key tactics for armored divisions, and Fort Benning is developing parachute troops and aerial transport of infantry, so Camp McCoy’s 1400 men are trying out every type of snow equipment submitted to the Army by sports goods manufacturers, in order to pick the best for standard equipment. Col. Hayes A. Kroner has with him experienced officers of the Second Infantry, some of them with long Alaskan and northern experience,

But the Nazis

By MAJ. AL (ILLIAMS Times Aviatioh Editor It seems timely td clo a little ex« plaining about the boips used here and abroad in divejbombing. The tactic of dife-bombing was United States Navy long before 1930. We used single - seater fighting planes, gui built for speed, rapid climb, and clean as a hound’s tooth in regard to air re=sistance. Dive = bombing: in a single-seat-er (and some of us claim that dive - bombing means straight down, not a | steep glide) calls | Maj. Williams for standing the ship on its nose and roaring toward the ground. go single-seater gathers velocity [rapidly. A few thousand feet, and the airspeed indicator usually reads 100 miles &n hour higher than the top speed [of the ship in level flight. Prolong the dive, as one must [in simulating &ctual attack, and| thousands more feet are consumed in a few seconds. During these few seconds, tae pilot, looking dead over the nose of his ship, is sage the rudder bar

and sols his elevators anc ailerons to aim his craft—Ilike a sharpshooter steadying his rifle, You point the plane, end when you arc on. the terget; you pull the bomb release.

Three hundred fifty miles an hur mnieans traveling downward aout 500 feet a second. Two seco0ads—1000 feet. And seconds go

fast when a fellow is correcting his

dive-bombing aim. The knowledge tat his ship is gobbling altitude tends tg hurry the pilot, 2nd again he is like a rifleman forced to draw a (uick bead and fire. Then, too, the faster the plane travels, the more difficulty the pilot faces in the “pull-out.” It's no joke to pull out quickly at 35¢ miles an Liour. Normally, the pull-out subjects the pilot to what are known as ¢.ccelerations, amounting fo as high ¢s five [to seven “G.” “G” is your standing weight—the attraction of gravity lon your body in pounds. If your weight is, say 22 pounds, seven ‘CG calises you to press g2ainst the cont in your ship at the pressure of 1400 pounds. Every part of your body—hands, j'eet, internal organs, and the blood in the| veins—is subjected to the same downward pressure, at “G” simes its normal weight. The blood 8 drained from the visual nerve senters and you “go black”—temporerily blind. Doctors tell us, also, that vital fluids in the head are

ship will dive fast. The greater the speed, and the quicker the pull-out, the higher the “G.” Was it any wonder that some of us who saw the Germans building their famous dive-bomber, the “JU-87," equipped with air brakes, hurried home and tried to awaken our own people to put air brakes on planes used in dive-bombing. We knew there was no room for gir brakes on our single-seaters; they weren't nearly fast enough, even without such gadgets. So we believed a dive-bomber had to ‘be built for that purpose, and from scratch, But the men who sit behind desks never feel old “G” get in its: deep blows on a pilot's system. Ke for many years, we used singleeater fighting planes. In short, we invented dive-bombing—and that’s —— we did.

OHIC'S ‘VALJEAN' TO REMAIN FREE

Warden Says Fugitive Has Good Position, Rating In Rochester, N. Y.

COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 24 (U. P.). —Governor John W. Bricker has accepted the recommendation of Warden ¥rank D. Henderson of

Ohio make no attempt to extradite Adolphus Edwards, 50-year-old «Jean Valjean,” from Rochester,|®

Now, back to the ships. A fast|N. ¥

Mr. Henderson, in his letter to the Ciovernor yesterday, said that Edwards, a fugitive from Ohio for almost 21 years, had become a “respected citizen” of Rochester. He said the middle-aged ex-con-vict held a good position as head cabinst-maker for a Rochester firm, enjoyed a high credit rating, possessed a sizeable bank account and was buying his own home at preseat. “In the interest of justice,” Mr. Henderson said Ohio should not seek to return Edwards to complete his sentence for a $41 theft committed in 1917. Such a decision “will not be adverse to morale at Ohio penal institutions,” Mr. Henderson said. State Welfare Director Charles L. Sherwood,, Mr. Henderson’s immediate superior, concurred in the recom-

mendations.
