coat over them. Those who did
not have library cards were
given forms to be filled out by
the parents so they could bor
row books from the library.

Georgian Pilot
Of Mystery Plane
Down in Russia
Burbank, Calif. -0JPD- Fran
cis G. Powers, 30, Albany, Ga.,
was the test pilot of a mystery-shrouded
U2 American
plane shot down over Russian
territory.
Lockheed Aircraft Corp.,
maker of the highly secret
reconnaissance craft, an
nounced Thursday night Pow
ers joined the firm in 1958.
He had been assigned to the
National Aeronautics and
Space Administration pro
gram using U2 planes.
Mystery Craft
Lockheed withheld identi
fication of Powers to first
notify his mother who suffers
from a heart ailment, a firm
spokesman said. His wife,
Barbara, lives in Albany.
The U2 is somewhat of a
mystery craft. Although built
by Lockheed and test flown
first in 1956, little is known
about it.
Information about it is
highly classified, said a
Lockheed spokesman. -"Any
releases about it must come
Irom the National Aeronau
tics and Space Administra
tion which runs the U2 pro
gram." U for Utility
Lockheed built the researcn
craft as neither a fighter nor
bomber, so it was given the
initial U - for utility.
The plane is capable of fly
ing longer at higher altitudes
up to 10 miles - than any
of the best U.S. fighter-interceptors.
'
In design the U2 is a
straight-wing, single - engine
jet with a BO-foot wing span
and 45 feet in length. It flies
at speeds less than the speed
of sound.
The U2 was built to carry
one person - the pilot - ana
load of test instruments.
