ICELAND VITAL COG IN FLYING Meeks Field, Iceland fU.IO They are still pouring the big bombers into Europe to pulver ize Germany's resources to wage war. Within a few hours one morn ing while 12 American corres pondents were visiting this Im portant army air transport com mand base approximately a score of sleek, shiny B-17s landed on the field, en route to Britain. A youthful pilot of one ship, who cannot be named, said he had flown from Goose Bay, Labrador, in approximately 11 hours, "Tha weather was exactly the way they said It would be, scattered clouds at 8000 feet and slightly overcast over Green land," he said. "We flew at 9,000 feet to 11,000 feet. It was dark over the icecap but we could see the ice glare below. We got on the beam 300 miles out. The radio was very good. It took us about four hours to fly from Presque Isle to Goose Bay." Only 13 Accidents Ha appeared perfectly confi dent, and reassured to believe that there had been only 13 ac cidents In 7,500 crossings by tactical aircraft. This Incident was typical of what goes on here at this base, where U. Col Hugh R. Gil christ, Clinton, Okla., is ATC commander, and Lt. Col. Roger H. Kruse, formerly of TWA and former resident of St. Louis and New York, is operations officer. The base provides - many services. Pilots and navigators are briefed on the course to Britain and shown pictures of the approaches, Complete weather information indicates their course- and altitude. Crews are housed overnight and planes checked and serviced. Eastbound the base Is used primarily by combat craft, as tne larger transports usually fly direct from Newfoundland 1 to Britain. Westbound, because of the prevailing winds, many transports stop here. Facilities for Wounded Many carry wounded home. There is a holding hospital here for wounded who stop over night, and facilities for feeding wounded aboard, planes that stop briefly. In one day nine hospital planes stopped bere carrying 16 to 18 patients per plane, . Since D-day In Europe more than 19,000 wounded have been flown back to the United States. Meeks Field is only one of numerous American installa tions In Iceland. The Iceland Base Command, under Maj. Gen. William S. Key, Oklahoma City, is charged with the defense of the country.

But first, remember that in buying a turkey it's wise to figure about H to I lb. (drawn weight) per serving. To truss the bird (thus keeping it in compact and attractive shape while roasting); Fold wings back so the tips are caught in back of the bird, and tie tightly around the whole bird using strong cord Then, using another length of cord, tie firmly around the end of each drumstick just above the joint, press them close to the body, and tie them securely to the tailpiece (as shown above) DOUGH BIANKIT ROASTING b the next step, and it requires neither roaster nor basting: 1. Have bird trussed and'ready 2. Place on shallow pan or metal tray (may go - eater-cornered if bird is large) 3. Have oven good and hot (450 F.) . 4. Mix 4 to 6 cups of flour (depending on size of bird) with just enough water to make stiff dough; knead slightly B. Roll out to M to H inch thickness, large enough to cover bird completely 6. Let edges hang loose don't tuck in (if it stretches too thin at any point, patch with extra dough) Put Immediately into hot oven Pour 1 cup water into pan; bake about 15 minutes for dough blanket to set. 9. Reduce oven heat to 325 F. and finish roasting 10. Do not baste, but be sure to keep about 1 cupful of water in pan at all times 11. Half an hour before serving time, break the hard dough blanket by tapping with a ham mer; remove blanket, being careful not to break the skin. 12. To get desired color, increase heat if neces sary and continue cooking uncovered. Roosting time depends on the size of the bird; the larger the turkey, for example, the fewer minutes per pound needed for tender results. Turkeys weighing from 14 to 25 lbs. require about 4 i hours at 325 F.; from 8 to 13 lbs., about Z'A hours. large birds are "done" when tines of fork easily enter the thick part of the drumstick or when, after you've grasped the end bone of the drumstick the joints in the thigh break or move easily.
