Covered Bridges Rapidly
Leaving American Scene
Philippi, W. Va. (U.R) The
covered bridge is fast vanishing
from the American scene and
along with it pleasant memories
of the horse and buggy days and
some bits of history.
One of the most beautiful and
best preserved bridges today is
the two-lane span crossing the
Tygarts River at Philippi. The
residents oi the town and Bar
bour county are determined that
this historic old bridge shall not
be allowed to rot away as others
have done, or be removed for
modern structures. ,
This well - preserved link to
the past stands near the ground
where the first land battle of
the Civil War was fought and
it brings' memories of the tramp,
tramp, tramp of marching feet
that echoed through the cool
green hills of the Tygarts River
Valley.
The bridge first came into being
in 1852 and it has seen a great
deal of history in the making.
Slave Freed Nearby
It was near this bridge that
the first slave was freed from
prison after the Emancipation
Proclamation of Abraham Lin
coln. Near here, too, in the early
19000s Mother's Day had its
origin.
However, the old patriarch nev
er looked better than it does to
day, for the people of Tygarts
Valley are dressing the bridge
up, getting ready to celebrate its
100th birthday.
The full 100-year history of
the span will be depicted in pageantry-and
exhibits. """ "
The span was built of yellow
poplar, cut on the scene, and
stone masonry was used to se1
cure the foundations. The bridge
has proven its great strength ov
er the 100 years.
It is now the longest two-lane
active covered bridge in the
country and is expected to stand

for another 100 year? at least
In 1934 it was strengthened to
permit the heavy modern day
automobile traffic volume. It
forms part of the connecting
link between Philippi and the
junction of U. S. Routes 119 and
250 north of the town..
Only towering trailer trucks
are prohibited from using the
bridge because of its limited 11-
foot, 10-inch clearance.
It was not long after the
bridge was completed that it
heard the rumble of cannon and
reverberated to the marching
feet of the armies of both the
North -and South in the battle
for the preservation of the Urv
ion.
Military Objective
Actually the first land battle,
although it had far-reaching ef
fects, was pretty much . of a
farce. It was signalled, not by
a general or military man, but
by a frightened woman.
Col. George A. Porterfield of
the Confederate troops arrived
in Philippi late in May, 1861. He
was to gather a band of loyal
confederates and proceed north
to capture the railroad between
there and Wheeling.
Gen. George B. McClellan
heard about the plan and sent
his Ohio and Western Virginia
forces south to hold the rail
road.
McClellan decided to attack
Philippi and cut off Porterfield's
escape route from the town. Part
of McClellan's troops were to
proceed south, skirting the. .town,,
and 'capture trie Philippi cover
ed bridge, over which the Rebel
forces would cross to retreat
southward.
Premature Shot
Meanwhile, the other North
ern troops were to entrench on
the hills overlooking the town
from the north, ready to launch
the attack on June 3.
As McClellan's troops passed
a farm house that night an old
woman was awakened and ran
out of her house iiring a pistol
at the "Yankees."
'A pistol shot was to be the sig
nal of attack, and since it was
premature, the escape roifte ov
er the bridge remained open, al
lowing the Confederate troops
to get out of the trap. Only three
injuries were reported-

Cuts Production Time
New York (U.R) - A pro
cess through which a tough al
loy steel is made to flow like
toothpaste from a tube is cut
ting production hours into min
utes at an aircraft propeuor
manufacturing firm.
Steelways, magazine of the
American Iron and Steel Insti
tute, says that the Curtis-Wright
Corp., co-operating steel comp
anies and the Air Force combin
ed efforts to work out a method
for faster propeller production.
Extrusion, the production
method by which hot steel is
made to "flow" through a shap
ed die, long has been in use to
make simple forms with uniform
thickness from soft metal. Steel
ways says to make so compli
cated a shape as a propeller
blade from a nickel-chrome-
molybdenum steel, one of in
dustry's hardest alloys, is some
thing else again.
Initially, a 400- pound block
of steel is electrically heated in
salt solution, then put into a
die and smashed at with a bat
tering ram called a mandrel ex
erting tremendous, pressure to
form the propeller shank.
The second step requires use
of a tapered mandrel to taper
the shank. Then the steel is re
heated, a longer mandrel is used
to batter it, and the steel flows
out through the die to form flat,
hollow blades. The final step
then is simply a matter of flat
tening and twisting the blades.
