Latest Fighter
Planes Outmode
Jets of Today
By Charles Corddry
(United Preaa Aviation Writer)
Los Angeles, April 11 HPThe
aircraft industry today is turning
out brand new, hard-hitting jet
lighter planes that will relegate
present flashy models to a by
gone era.
Their introduction into air
force units, beginning later this
year, will be a major step for
ward in defense preparations.
They illustrate what some ex
perts, like Dr. Vannevar Bush,
wartime head of the office of sci
entific research and development,
mean in saying defense may be
gaining the upper hand in mod
ern war.
Today's fighters are used for
' any type of mission. In contrast,
the new ones are designed for
' such special missions as all
weather combat, penetration of
enemy lines, interception of
bomber attacks and support of
ground troops.
Compromises which are neces
sary in general purpose fighters
have been eliminated. For exam
ple, the long-range essential to
an escort fighter need not be built
into one designed primarily for
Interception or local defense. ;
Advances Noted
Some of the advances, varying
for particular models, are:
1. Greater size and w e i r h t .
Some of these aerial destroyers
are heavier than a DC-3 airliner
and twice as heavy as today's
lighters. I
. 2. Tremendous firepower. Be
sides the customary armament,
some of tomorrow's fighters will
fire rockets through their noses
in rapid succession, much like
machine gun bullets. And the
rockets will have proximity fuses
to set them off when they reach
the vicinity of an invading bomb
er. i 3. Speed and altitude. None of
the new fighters is, expected to
fly slower than about 95 per cent
of the speed of sound more than
700 miles an hour at low alti
tudes and more than 600 ' mph
above 35,000 feet. That is a gain
of 25 to 30V pai cent over some
of today's models. The 'new types
are expected to maneuver better
than present ones at altitudes
well in excess of 40,000 feet.- .
- 4. Power. The thrust ratings of
some of the new planes may well
be .double those o4 today's, Jet
power is measured In thrust in
stead of horsepower. One pound
of thrust equals one horsepower
at 375 mph. Some of the new
fighters, will have 10,000 pounds
Dt thrust, probably more.
5. All-weather equipment. Some
of today's planes are called all
weather fighters but engineers
do not consider it a correel label.
The future all-weather fighter
will have a vast array of radar
equipment, plus a heated wing
to prevent felng and ground nav
igation aids so traffic on runways
can be directed In zero-zero con
ditions. . ; . .
. 6. Rate , of climb. ' This factor

Portable Vault
Pit Developed '
A portable pole vaulting and
high Jumping pit developed by
Robert W. Hendershott, ex-Lava
Bear and now assistant coach of
the Klamath Falls high school
track team, Is to be manufactured
under the direction of Clair Ful
ler and Mickey Bell, both of Bend,
it was announced here today. Bell
is owner of the Redmond Machine
works. A plant will be established
near the Redmond shops and pro
duction of the portable pit will
start immediately.
The original model of the pit
is owned by the University of Or
egon. George Rasmussen, Bend
boy and University of Oregon all
American vaulter, has used the
pit throughout the winter at Mc
Arthur court, at the university.
Considerable interest in the new
apparatus has been shown by
high schools and colleges in the
west.
Will Use Model
A model will be used at the inter-state
track and field meet at
Klamath Falls on April 29.
A description of the new equip
ment appeared in a recent issue
of "Scholastic Coach," a maga
zine dealing with building and
equipment. Title of ' the article,
written- by Hendershott, is "A
Portable-Collapsible Pit." Hender
shott credits Paul Deller, head
track coach at the Klamath high
school with the Idea for the de

vice when he said Jokingly:
"Why not make a pole vault
or high jump pit portable so it
could be moved around?" Hen
dershoot thought the question ov
er and devised a portable pit. Re
cently, an improvement was made
as the result of a suggestion by
Rasmussen. The pit has been
used successfully at Klamath
Falls for the past several sea
sons. Basically, the Hendershoot portable-collapsible
pit is a pit above
ground and consists of a frame
work and a container for shav
ings. Rules stipulate that a pole
vault pit must be 16 by. 12 feet.
A later development provided for
wheels, making it possible for
two or three men to move the
outfit. The framework is collap
sible, so the entire unit can be
placed in a pickup truck.
