Ellis United Pren Science Editor New York, May 25 tU.R) Old-fashioned coal oil, the same that grandmother used in her wick lamp on the kitchen tabic, may turn out to be the best fuel for the jct-engined airliner in this modern world. At least engineers of one pe troleum company, the Esso Ex port corporation, have put them selves on record as believing that kerosene, from a standpoint of safety against fire and for eco nomical reasons, will be the fuel of the future airplane. Told in Article! The company's position Ls con tained in an article by Alexander Ogston, of the firm's aviation department and which appears In the current Issue of Esso Ari World. Ogston at a press conference here mid that while the conven tional type of airplane engines will be built for at least 10 years, eventually the big air- LAWN SPRINKLER SYSTEMS Avoid hours of tedious hand sprinkling . . .

The high octane gasoline, now being used for aircraft fuel, comes high in price and avia tion experts agree that a better fuel from a cost standpoint will be necessary when jct-propollcd airliners are common. Higher Safety Standard Ogston, whose statements were approved by the oil com pany, said "there is little doubt that a fuel of the general char acteristics of kerosene comes closest to satisfying the require ments." "On the subject of relative fire hazards, there surely can be no question that the use of a fuel of similar boiling range and flash point to kerosene will pro vide a higher standard of safety than i.s possible with gasoline," he said. Ogston admitted that there have been some "severe fires" following the crash of a jet fighter plane, using kerosene, but that surh crashes have been where the aircraft has hit the ground at high speed, causing complete disintegration of the structure. Eire in such cases was not th ecause of death. Ogston said research is now underway to find means to pro : teel kerosene from freezing at 1 extremely low temperatures. Such will be necessary if kcro- sene is ever adopted for military planes that may be based in arc i tic regions. 1 RUNS ON GASOLINE Swift Current, Sask. (U.Rl : W. J.

Maynor, who has worked on rocket research for 30 years, said this was the 03rd tryout he has given his rocket engines which are powered by nitric acid and alcohol. Lot of Work Yet "We may be ready to take off in six weeks," he said, "but there is a lot of work to be done be fore we're ready for that." Maynor said his rocket will carry only one man but that lat er he hopes to build larger ones. He said Lt. Col. Howard Ma rueywn of the Cook County Air Force Reserve Officers associa tion, is his pilot and will guide the rocket on its initial flight. Lifting Force He said he believes the rocket will soar 27 miles into the strat osphere. It has a lifting force of 6,000 pounds, he said. He conducts tests on small scale models of the rocket en gines in Chicago but said he has to take the real engines out into the country before starting them. "They shoot flames 50 feet behind," he said, "and you can hear them four or five miies away." He said he started one in the city once "and it scared a lot of people." Scout Troop 9 lo Honor Scoutmaster Boy scouts of Troop 9 and their families are planning a pic nic dinner to honor Dr. W. H. Roberts in appreciation of his work as scoutmaster of the troop. It will be held next Sundav at Twin Plunges in Ashland at 2:30 p. m. "Dr. Roberts is doing an out standing Job as leader of this troop," a parents representative said, and this picnic dinner is to be a small token of our appre ciation." Boy scout officials state that during the year and a half Dr. Roberts has been troop leader, the troop has grown from six boys to about 45, and that growth in advancements and in special activities has been notable. Four out of the five patrols in Rob erts' troop won blue ribbons at the recent camp-o-rcc. Each family of scouts belong ing to this troop, sponsored by the Christian church in Mcdford, is requested to bring its own service and picnic dinner. Ice cream will be furnished, parents in charge said. DOCTOR WELCOME Newberry. Fla. (U.R) Some 500 of Newberry's 800 citizens turned out to shake hands with Dr. and Mrs. George Kareles.
