‘pable of attaining speeds up to 1000 miles per hour solves one of aviation's greatest jet-age problems. Prior to the announcement by Curtiss-Wright Corp., Oct. 30, the propeller as a means of driving upersonic speed aircraft was believed obsolescent. _ Propellers had been developed ‘hrough the last war to propel vircraft at speeds over 400 miles er hour. Aeronautical experts wwedicted that if aircraft speeds aopped 500 miles per hour, the oropeller would be inadequate. Straight gas turbine or jet power vithout propellers, however, in“icated necessity for longer runvays for landings and takeoffs nd a reduction in maneuvering

igned for use with turboprop enines from the 2500 to the 20,000 orsepower ranges.

Added Efficiency

This means that tomorrow's as turbine airliners, bombers, ghters and cargo transports _

To Keep Onions ‘From Sprouting

By Selence : EAST LANSING, Mich., Nov. 23 {—A. way to keep onions from {sprouting during storage has been discovered by. S. H, Wittwer and IR. Sharma of Michigan State College here.

The method consists in spraying the tops of the plants, while they are still growing, with a chemical called maleic hydrazide. When the plants were sprayed with a 2,500 ppm solution of this chemical about two weeks before harvest, the onions did not sprcut during five months in storage and there was considerable less loss from storage breakdown. Flavor, color and odor apparently were not affected, the scien-

tists state in a report to the journal, Science. Similar results have been ob-

tained with carrots and the method is now being tried on other commonly stored root crops such as sugar beets and potatoes.

Mrs. Wanada Anderson of San Francisco shows how she uses herself as a model for a Sculpture called "A Prayer for Under. | standing." She measured herself with her hands, transmitting what she feels into the clay. Blind for five years, Mrs. Anderson is one of seyeral sightless persons doing sculptural work at San Francisco center for the blind.
