GUA R D CHURCH OF GOD Bible Truth Mission Meeting TOWNSEND HALL 8th and Lincoln Every Saturday Afternoon At 2 P.M. By DAVID A. STEIN NEW YORK (NEA) A new sky fighter with the power of a B-29 Superfortress and the speed of the P-80 Shooting Star was announced by the Army Air Forces today. The XP-81, first plane ever to fly with a gas tur bine designed for propeller drive, is the most powerful fighter plane in the world. The gas turbine in the nose and the jet engine between the cock pit and tail of the plane can pro duce virtually as much power as all four reciprocating engines of the B-29. The small bullet-like fighter can slash through the air at speeds exceeding 500 miles an hour. Observers who watched first tests of the XP-81 at an Army Air Force base in California foresee far-reaching advances in civilian aviation as a result of the fighter's development. They predict that within five years cargo and trans port planes with similar power units will be used for speedier, more economical air transportation.

The diphtheria rise from 173 to 253 cases was attributed by Dr. Harold M. Erickson, state health officer, to a wartime decrease in immunization, and incoming resi dents from non-immunized areas. Tropical diseases have proved no hazard in Oregon's temperate climate, the board reported, al though returning veterans may carry malaria and dysentery. Measles topped the disease ros ter during the past week, with 144 cases almost three . times the total during the corresponding week last year. Bids Received On New 1000-Gallon Fire Truck City Manager Deane Seeger said Wednesday three bids on a 1000-gallon pumper to be bought by the Eugene Fire Department have been opened and offer vehicles ranging in price from $12,000 to $14,000. Offerings of three companies are being studied by the fire de partment prior to selection of the preferred bid, which will be recommended for acceptance at the next regular council meeting marcn u. The use of pigeons as messen gers goes back to 3500 B.C. made in 5 to 8 hours, they pre dict. The propeller drive gas tur bine, known as the PE Propjet, provides long range operating economy, using less fuel than a pure jet engine. Use of a propeller provides for better control, thus insuring greater safety. It is an important factor, also, in providing greater range and flight economy. The 1-40 - GE Jet engine used in the XP-81 is the same power unit which has enabled the Shoot ing Star to shatter speed records. When both the jet engine and the gas turbine are used together, the plane shoots forward in a tre mendous burst of speed. The jet is primarily an auxiliary engine. It functions best in the strato sphere, while the Propjet is best for sub-stratosphere flights. Advantages of the XP-81, the Army Air Force reports, include maximum performance from tree top level to sub-stratosphere, sus tained high speed superb ma neuverability, long range, ex tremely sharp angle of climb, quick take-off, and a minimum of vibration. In cargo and transport planes of the day after tomorrow, both gas turbine and jet power will be used in take-offs. Both are start ed in 30 seconds and neither re quires a warm-up. With both propeller and jet thrust, the plane will take-off at incredible speed. Propjet For Range Once the plane is in the air, only the Propjet will be used for cruising. The gas turbine per forms best and most economically while maintaining high speed for sustained periods, thus giving the craft longer range. The Fropiet also pressurizes the cabin. Air is siphoned from the axial flow conpressor, and at high altitudes the engine heats the air that flows into the cabin;' Both engines burn the same fuel, usually kerosene. Since the Propjet is more economical in fuel consumption it is one of the fac tors in the long range attainable when the plane is cruising swiftly with the propeller gas turbine alone. The XP-81, designed and pro duced by Consolidated Vultee un der war-time pressure, is a single- place monoplane. Weighing only 22,000 pounds, it has a wing span of 50 feet, six inches and is 44 feet, 8 inches long.

(U.PJ An ex-GI came back to earth today and resumed classes at Notre Dame university, his vision of be ing a millionaire broken and the whole thing termed a joke on him. Jack E. Love, 22-year-old vet eran, said he didn't get that $1,000,000 from a rich uncle, after all. The uncle still was pretty much alive, he admitted after a conference with university of ficials. So, he said, he would have to go back to his classes, still de pendent upon his allotment under the GI bill of rights. Love told Notre Dame officials some prankster must have sent him the letter which said his great-uncle, Claud Logan, of Liv ingston, Mont, had died and left him a fortune. Didn't Explain "I even thought it was all a joke when I gave out the story Mon day," Love told the college offi cials. But he -didn't. explain why some of his early statements failed to jibe with details he gave later. He said he didn't know why "I gave a mistaken impression about my war record." He had said he was a lieutenant; his draft board said he was discharged as a corporal. University officials said Love would be allowed to go back to his classes without any disciplinary action. Love had disappeared for two days after he had related the story that his great-uncle had died, leaving him an estate valued at somewhere between $1,000,000 and $1,500,000. Shortly before the ex GI dropped from sight, his father, Jack O. Love, a Hagerstown, Md., attorney, said the great-uncle ap parently was still alive and "somebody is ribbing somebody." Yesterday, the elder Love said he had received a letter from a New York attorney, similar to the one the veteran said he had re ceived, reporting the death of Logan. The letter had no return address, the father said, and re ported only that Logan had drowned Jan. 10 while on a boat trip from Astoria to Tillamook, Ore. However, a check of Oregon records did not reveal the death of a Claude Logan. YW Officials To Attend National Convention Mrs. C. A. Barnes, treasurer of the city YWCA and a member of the national board of the YWCA and Mrs. Helene Hoffman, execu tive director of the local associa tion, will leave Feb. 27 for At lantic City, N.J., to represent Eu gene at the 17th national conven tion of the "Y" which will open on March 2 and continue through March 8. Mrs. Barnes is a dele gate of the national board and Mrs. Hoffman of the local asso ciation. More than 3000 delegates will attend the meetings, with repre sentatives from 1(J foreign coun tries expected. Vanport Eyed As School Site PORTLAND, Feb. 21 (U.R) Possibility that the state may use Vanport as a location for expand ed extension course offerings or even' a junior college this summer was seen here today in the consid erations of the Oregon State Sys tem of Higher Education. Although attention has been focused on the possibility of oper ating the $6,500,000 Marine bar racks at Klamath Falls as a lower division college, surveys already are in progress regarding the pos sible use of Vanport, both as a physical plant and housing. It was indicated no action would be taken if the preliminary study of Vanport facilities until the board completes inspection of the Klamath Falls layout this Satur day.
