Gas Protection; By DR. WARD L." MQULD " Medical Gas Officer TJS Office of CtvlHan Defense ?ant to Try This? ' v v Test Parachutist Concludes f Delayed9 Jumps Ae Best V By STEPHEN J. MCDONOUGH WASHINGTON. June 30-(Wide World)rThe man who per formed the . nightmarish plijnge of nearly five miles through space before opening his parachute advised air combat pilots to wait until they are almost kissing the earth before they pull the I ripcord. - " Arthur H. S tames of Calumet City, HI Y a private flier who has made more than 300 jumps,-more than 50 of which, were "delayed," holds the wOrld'srecord for hav ing leaped ' into space' from a height - of . 30,800 feet above jthe earth.' - - , j He -coasted downward almost two c minutes, reaching : a : peak speed of 230 miles an hour, and meanwhile talked calmly over a shortwave radio set in one of his pockets. -vr C";.' ':' At. 1500 feet; above the earth, carefully, calculated on his wrist altimeter, he "hit the silk" and landed without even an injured elbow. ' - This and other Jumps weren't stunt affairs such as those put' on for state fair crowds, but all Were carefully planned ahead of time to ret scientific Infor mation on the mental and phy sical effects on a human beinr dropping- through space. Starnes ' worked with scientists of the University of Chicago and Harvard university in planning and executing his studies and was equipped with a complete, compact-laboratory In his flying suit This equipment measured his breathing fate, his heart pulsa uons, his ' temperature, oxygen consumption and . skin tempera hire as compared with' the outr side air, his speed of fall and the spin of his body, as well as other pertinent data. '.-.. :;t :.: ; i -.' As a result. of. these studies, Starnes eoncladed in the air forces 2 news, letter, air, crews "should not open their para chutes -until they iiave fallen to dense, safe air close to the earth ;. . Y- . - V And, he. added, "it is my opin ion : that chutes can be , opened safely as low as 1S00 feet above the ground by persons who have never jumped before.- There is,, little sensation of fall ing in a parachute jump, there Is no loss of consciousness and the man can think clearly and co herently, he reported. Jumps always should be delay ed, Starnes added, for two good reasons: the man must be sure to be free of his airplane and a de layed opening from a high speed plane will 'permit the body to slow down to a safe rate! o speed." i-v, ;.' , : In addition, ; he said, enemy pilots have been known to ma chlnegun parachutists at every opportunity . and the shadow of 'a falling .'body merges Into the landscape; nntn .the man gets near enough to .the earth to open his .parachute safely, v "' . Delayed I Jumps- are absolutely necessary if a man has to jump from any ; height " above " 20,000 feet, Starnes- declared, because he would die from lack of oxy gen ' in the rarefied atmosphere "If a delayed jump Is made, he will fall in a matter of seconds into air that is life-sustaining.'' In case you, ever have to jump, he offers this advice: 1. Dive out head first. . j 2. Don't worry If the earth la spinning about underneath you. Your chute will straighten you out. - I" ; " -. :;- S. Keep your legs straight, otherwise you may foul the chute as ft opens. 4. Keep your mouth open and yell as loud as possible this canalises the pressure on your eardrums.' 5. Keep thinking and don't get frightened. . " (This is the fifth of a series of six articles about war gases, their char acteristics, and measures the civilian fan take to protect himself against gas injury.) V You Can Protect Yourself ' This article will present a few simple rules by which injury by war gases may be prevented or modified.- If mustard or lewisite are used, the most serious injuries will result from the liquid agent Therefore, during .a raid remain Inside, or go Inside if you are out i cf doors. , ,t " Remember that war gases are heavier than air, and will cling to the ground.
