What Would
Field Exercise
Fort Xewis, Wash., Apr. 8
U.PJ What would happen if an
enemy should land on the west
coast, capture r-ortiana, -re.,
and then launch an attack
against cities in western Wash
ington? Some of the answers were
given today in an army dis
closure that a division field ex
ercise which has been going on
since April 3 was a test of the
area's defense against just such
an eventuality.
A mythical intelligence report
received here at noon on April
3. said. "Aggressor forces have
made landing on tne west coasi.
They have secured Fortiana,

Looks, Not Money
Test of Beauty
Students Report
Chapel Hill, N. C (U.R At
least one student on the Univer
sity of North Carolina campus is
worried over the typeof
"beauty" that may represent his
school nationally.
An organization on the cam
pus is sponsoring a beauty con
test. A girl is to be chosen on
the basis of "personality, looks,
and activeness in campus
affairs."
Anybody can vote, at a penny
per ballot.
Fretting over the possibilities,
one student wrote a letter to the
Dally Tar Heel. He had this to
say:
"Everything possible should
have been done to see that
Carolina is represented by the
prettiest, most personable, and
most all-around co-ed.
Says et'Ls Face It
". . . But let's face it. As the
contest now is being conducted,
if the 'I've Got an Oil Well
Club' were to sponsor the local
Lena the Hvena. don't think for
a minute that we wouldn't be
represented by this monstrosity.
". . . if the prettiest, most all
around girl does win and does
become our representative ... it
will just be a happy coinci
dence." The apprehensive correspon
dent said vote buying was
frowned upon "even" in politics.
A beauty contest, he wrote, is
usually far less corrupt.
Another letter commented on
the "beautiful co-eds forging
ahead penny b y penny into
the rat race Tor the title, Miss
Beautiful Junior Miss'."
Suggestions Offered
Suggestions were offered to
combat this apparent evil.
Stamping of ID cards and a
check-off roster headed the list.
The front page carried pic
tures of three of the leading
candidates. All appeared well
equipped to do beauty battle.
But with such enthusiastic ob
servers, a change is in the cards
for beauty contests at the Uni
versity of North Carolina.
As die letter to the editor
said, the winner should be the
Rirl who has the "fullest de
gree of characteristics" and not
the one who has the "fullest
money pouch."

the maneuvers, controlled the I
pulse of the field operation by
an intricate maze of radio and
wire communications system.
The "aggressor" forces were
represented by elements of the
4th experimental combat team
and 2nd Recon. Co. clad in for
eign attire and a few succeeded
In infiltrating deep into the de
fenders' territory before they
were "captured.
On the second day, "enemy"
airborne troops in force dropped
in the vicinity of Olympia. After
"capturing" U.S. army tanks and
vehicies and utilizing highway
D9, they were moving north and
threatening to grab Tacoma.
The aggressor forces attached
the 9th infantry, forcing it to ex
ecute a "retrograde movement,"
a term denoting withdrawal to
an advantageous position.
But in the evening, the 9th
infantry, reorganized and re
inforced, made a vigorous coun
teiVittack. The aggressor air
borne troops were "annihilated,"
and Tacoma. Seattle and the
northwest were made secure.
Who's Flying Plane?
Dual Pilots Inquire
Driffield, England (U.R) Tes
timony at a court martial showed
that neither the Instructor nor
his pupil was at the controls
when a dual-control Meteor jet
training plane hit a 66,000-volt
pylon cable.
Fit. Lt. Victor Tomlin, the In
structor, told the court he be
lieved his pupil was operating
the plane.
The pupil, Pilot Officer R. H.
Everett, said he wasn't bother
ing about the controls at the
time because he thought Tomlin
was operating them.
The court reprimanded Tom
lin because he was the senior
officer and the instructor.
