Navy Flier Breaks The 20-G Barrier Johnsville, Pa. (UPD The U. S. Naval Development cen ter here has disclosed that a 33-year-old Navy flier be came the first man to "fly" at a simulated speed of 18,000 miles per hour while exceed ing 20 G's. The feat was accomplished by Lt. Carter Collins, while riding in the gondola of the world's largest human centri fuge here at the Center's ac celeration laboratory. The speed was attained just prior to a simulated re-entry of the earth's atmosphere from an "altitude" of 200 miles. For more than six sec onds of the 54-second "flight" Collins set the record fore x ceeding 20 G's. One "G" is equal to the force of gravity. Physicians who examined Collins immediately after the experiment reported he suf fered no ill effects from the test. j jjl 04 lXTr' MYSTERY Open Throughout The Year Shakespearean Festival Schedule Sunday King Lear.

KING MOVED ALONG Unsmiling Capitol police hus tled Church of God Bishop Homer E..Tomlinson off the steps of the Capitol in Washington when he tried to pose for pictures as "King of the United States." The bishop, wearing a gold-foil covered iron crown and a blue Chi nese robe,' protested that he had been permitted to crown himself "King of Russia and the World" in Moscow's Red Square. He earned with him a flag, a gold-covered fold ing camp chair and an inflatable rubber globe.

(UPD This middle Georgia city ships more pimientos than are grown in Spain or even Mex ico and is, in fact the pimien to canning center of the world. Columbus discovered the pi miento when he discovered America in 1492 and it was also Columbus who made it possible for the pimiento in dustry to discover Griffin. After ope of his voyages to the New World, he took some seed back to Spain. For cen turies this pepper plant flour ished in Latin countries. In about 1920 an unidentified Georgia gardener wrote to Spain and got some seed. Pimientos have flourished here ever since. Fourth of Males Own Sport Shirts Washington (LTD More than one-fourth of the adult males in the U.S. own sport shirts, summer slacks, sport jackets and special suits for summer wear. The Agriculture Depart ment made this estimate after researchers interviewed 2,379 men 16 years of age and over on their preferences for various fibers in summer clothing. Cotton led for all garments except sport jackets and sum mer suits. The survey showed 99 per cent of the men owned cotton business dress shirts, 95 per cent cotton sport shirts and 49 per. cent cotton sum mer slacks or separate trous ers. Wool was preferred for summer suits and for sport jackets. SWING TIME Pembroke, Mass.

Y. Unseen and still largely uncharted currents which circulate in the abyssal waters of the earth may one day provide man with the means for al tering world climate, accord ing to Henry Stommel, ocean ographer associated with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. "Optimistic promoters of the earth sciences," said Dr. Stommel, "hold out visions of turning tropic deserts or arc tic wastes into temperate and fertile plains. Of course we could not hope to do this by brute force. To deflect major wind systems or ocean cur rents, or to heat the outdoors, would call for engineering works on a scale that man cannot even dream of. But some people suggest that we might be able to find some critical time and place where a relatively small man-made disturbance could set off a snowballing reaction which would produce a major altera tion in weather patterns if only we knew enough about the circulation of the atmos phere and the oceans. Actual ly this prospect is quite re mote. It does add some spice, however, to a study such as oceanagraphy. Influence on Climata "We do know that the oc eans circulate, transferring heat from one part of the planet to another. This trans fer, we also know, exerts a major influence on the pattern of world climate. We can di rectly observe surface ocean currents such as the Gulf Stream. But these comprise only part of the marine cir culation. Other currents, equ ally significant to climate, flow in the abyss a general sluggish circulation of water along the ocean bottoms from the North Atlantic and the Antarctic to the other oceans. These currents can only be studied indirectly because of! the great depths at which they flow. One evidence of their flow is gathered by measuring the amount of dissolved oxy gen in the waters of the abyss. Ocean water receives oxygen only at or near the surface by direct contact with the .at mosphere. After surface water sinks to deeper levels it grad ually loses some of its dis solved oxygen. Deep water is richest in oxygen in the North Atlantic and the Antarctic where surface water appears to sink rapidly. Deep currents from these areas then seem to flow south and north, respec tively, until they meet off the eastern coast of South Amer ica where they turn east, en ter the Indian Ocean and con tinue into the Pacific. Deep water of lowest oxygen con tent is found off Peru at the end of the long tip. Dam Suggested "Now, as to controrfing cli mate, the suggestion has been made that dam be thrown across the Straits of Gibral ter. Such a dam would need only about 10 times the fill used to build the Fort Peck dam in Montana. There is a deep current from the Med iterranean into the Atlantic GREETINGS ... Stowe, Vt.

If this flow were dam med, the salinity of the Atlan tic might drop. This would re duce the density of the water so that the cold Arctic water might stop sinking. Only the Antarctic would then supply the deep, cold ocean currents. In this event, the Gulf Stream would probably be diverted, flowing east instead of north from the Gulf of Mexico. As a result of the reduction of heat transport to the Arctic, the ice packs in that region would grow. This could possibly lead to a decline of the glaciers on land and to a general warming of the earth. Hard to Imagine "Common sense" rebels against such an argument. It is hard to imagine so fantas tic an effect from so small an intervention by man. And indeed the argument is loaded with unproved assumptions. In fact, I cite this entertain ing fantasy only to show that we need a great deal more information before we can be gin to talk knowledgeably of altering world climate.
