Army
War II
Kept in Condition by
Storage in Big Tanks
Lima, O. U.R) To the first age keeps the vehicles in such
time the Army has uncorked its
tin can tank farms" the Ord
nance Department's version of
the Navy's "mothball fleet"
Col. Stanley W. Connelly, com
manding officer of the Lima ord
nance depot, revealed Thursday
that the Army literally has "can
ned" hundreds of World War II
vehicles at storage depots across
the country.
Look Like Oil Tanks
Two miles west of this small
Ohio city is the biggest of the
"tin can tank farms," studded
with storage drums that look for
all the world like huge oil tanks.
But inside the concrete-floored;
steel-sided drums are parked the
tanks, armored cars, weapons
carriers and other vehicles that
survived World War II to fight
again. The "tin cans" are 11 feet
high and from 38 to 55 feet in
diameter. About half a dozen
combat vehicles are parked in
side each one.
Staled Against W.alh.f
The tin cans are sealed against
the weather by a special plastic.
Humidifying devices keep dry
air circulating through the huge
drums.
Connelly said this kind of stor-
Slim Fed Calves
Make Good Meat
Washington (U.R) Agricul
ture Department scientists have
' made a discovery at their Belts
ville, Md., research center which
should be welcome news tq cattle
ranchers.
Their tests show that calves
fed scanty rations for six months
still can produce high quality
meat in some cases even better
meat than animals well-fed from
the start. -.
The experiments were con
ducted on six pairs of twin
calves. The idea was to discover
what effect winter range feeding
might have on growing beef
calves. .
One of each pair of calves was
fed a restricted diet from the age
of six to 12 months and then
gradually put back on full feed
- until slaughter. His twin got full
.rations throughout. All of the
underfed calves picked up weight
rapidly when put back on full
feed and matched their full ra
tioned twins in weight near mar
keting time.
Slump Rolls Over;
One Killed, One Hurt
Walla Walla (U.R) A huge
stump being excavated here
rolled over, killing one work
man and seriously injuring an
other Thursday.
Dead was George Bunce, Wal
la, and hospitalized for undeter
mined injuries was his brother,
Hartley Cartwright.
. Coroner Leonard DeWitt said
the men were pinned by the
large stump in the yard of Earl
Dunham. Dunham and his Son
pried Cartwright out and police
and firemen dug out Bunce's
body.
go"d condition that depot work
ers can often get them running
under their own power within
two or three hours after they are
taken out of mothballs.
He said that within 60 hours
most of them are ready for de
livery to Korea or Western Europe.
Other tin can tank farms are
located at Lacarne, O.; Anniston,
Ala.; Chambersburg, Pa.; Ta
coma, Wash.; Texarkana, Tex.;
Herlong, Calif.; Tooele, Utah;
and Aberdeen, Md.
Fashion Models
Chief Types Men
For Leap Year
Hollywood (U.R) The presi
dent of the Fashion Models of
Southern California warned six
types of men Friday to, keep
their eyes open during leap year
or suffer the consequences. -
Judy Immor. said the males
that the girls will be hunting
most this year were typified by
millionaire Huntington Hart
ford, actor Tony Dexter, Cali
fornia Gov. Earl Warren, Ren
zo Cesana, the "Continental" of
television; baseball star Ralph
Kiner and businessman Henryi
Plehn.
Warren Past Age
Warren made the list al
though he's past the romantic
age, she said, because he com
bines "paternal compatibility
with political prowess."
Dexter, who portrayed Ru
dolph Valentino in a movie of
the silent screen lover's life,
"satisfies the animal instinct in
every woman,": while Hartford
has more than a million dollars,
which "alone would make his
type a prime target for matri
mony," Miss Immor said.
Doukhobor Choir
On Singing Tour
Olympia -r-(U.R) The Ambas
sador Doukhobor choir from
British Columbia Friday con
tinued on its good-will tour of
Washington .'. and Oregon after
missing a chance to sing hymns
in the Washington state capitol
rotunda, famous for its acous
tics. The 27 young men and women
were unable to sing in the capi
tol building . because they had
not made the necessary advance
arrangements with the state de
partment of public institutions.
The choir members, whose
average age is about 20 years,
are from the Doukhobor settle
,ment between Nelson and Trail,
B.C. Their tour is being spon
sored by the Americas Friends
service committee of Newberg,
Ore. The Doukhobors - speak
English but sing their hymns in
Russian.
