News About Books From the Library National Aviation day is be ing observed today. According to Librarian Helen Webster, the Medford Public library has a number of excellent books which tell the story of man's conquest of the air from the Wright Brothers' first attempts to the latest developments in space travel. Two books giving varying as pects of the history of American aviation are Charles A. Lind bergh's "The Spirit of St. Louis," which gives his auto biographical narrative of the planning and execution of the first nonstop airplane passage between the continents of Amer ica and Europe, and Jean Pot ter's "The Flying North." Hers is the story of the amazing and amusing exploits of those famed flying heroes, the "bush pilots" of Alaska. A more recent book, "Flight," is published by the editors of Year, Inc., and is a pictorial history of aviation. Planes Described Descriptions of more than 800 planes, from the earliest models of DeVinci to present day jets, are given in Douglas Rolfe's "Airplanes of the World from Pusher to Jet." Another book of interest from a military point of view is "The World's Fighting Planes" by William Green and Gerald Pollinger. "The Corn plete Book of Helicopters" by D. N. Ahnstrom gives an ac count of how the machine works and how it is flown, with a star tling vision of the giant sky buses and convertiplanes which will be soon plying our skies. Two recent books on the ever popular subject of flying sau cers are Edward Ruppelt's "The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects" and Lloyd Mallan's "Men, Rockets and Space Rats." Ruppelt was chief of the Air Force project investigating Un identified Flying Objects and his book is written in a vigorous straightforward manner.
