Signal Corps Finds Tough
Going Setting Poles for
Maneuver Communications
HEADQUARTERS OF CEN
TRAL OREGON MANEUVER
AREA, Camp Abbot, July 21 tfV)
A field signal corps construction
battalion, fresh from a long tour
of duty in a desert war games
area, is finding its work in the
Cascade range as Oregon maneu
vers start the opposite of that
just completed. Where previous
ly the men have fought shifting
sands, now they combat rough
and rock terrain left by volcan
oes which once spouted lavs
about the countryside.
Setting thousands of poles for
communication lines throughout
the vast maneuver area, the sol
diers find lava rock a real prob
lem. The rock soon dulls ordi
nary tools. Officers say blasting
Is necessary In 90 per cent of
the work. To keep up with the
army schedule and not because
signal corps men cannot do the
job demolition squads from the
corps of engineers assist In blast
ing because of their training In
handling explosives.
Often ground which appears
soft enough for post holes proves
to be solid lava two feet under
neath and not old lava rock
which becomes softer with the
centuries. . .
Poles were cut, trimmed and
barked by the signal corps men.
They were cut from areas previ
ously designated by the forest
service and under careful super
vision so that no fires may result.
Most of the poles lack the us
ual cross arms; instead wire will
be fastened by single insulator.
This, officers explain, because
the line will be torn down once
the maneuvers end.
Stringing of the miles of cop
per wire Is being started on an
undisclosed number of circuits.
The exact mileage used In the
network was not divulged, ex
cept that one circuit will com'
prise 168 miles of wire.
One of the construction bat
tallons is mode up entirely of
colored troops, under command
of white officers. Encamped in
a lush valley, their tended area
is as immaculate as If within the
limits of a regular garrison. Dur
ing the day they toil long hours
In clearing brush, digging holes,
setting poles.
Myrtle Creek Man Held as
Suspect in Police Gun Duel
ROSEBURG, Ore, July 21 (P)
Leslie Ellis, 43, of Myrtle Creek,
was In custody here today,
charged with assault with Intent
to kill and carrying concealed
weapons. Officers were investi
gating his possible connection
with a gun duel last May 18, in
which State Policeman William
Bettis narrowly escaped injury.
A bullet tore the heel off the
state policeman's boot on May
18 while he was guarding the
highway bridge at Myrtle Creek.
The officer and the sniper, the
latter hidden by brush across the
river, exchanged shots. State
policemen last Sunday recovered
a rifle from the South Umpqua
river at the scene of the shoot
ing. State Police Sgt. Paul Mor
gan reports, and the weapon was
identified as the property of El
lis, who had been unreported
since the date of the duel. He
was located yesterday at one of
two of his remote farms and ar
rested.
Ellis was allegedly carrying a
pair of brass knuckles at the
time of arrest, District Attorney
J. V. Long reported. -The prison
er denies having attacked Bet
tis, and claims his rifle had been
stolen from his cabin.
Ellis served six months In the
penitentiary in 1939 for armed
assault on a neighbor. He also

By CATHERINE BRUMBAUGH
Vice Pretldant of Soroptimists
"Be Jubilant, My Feet."
Eighty-one years ago, Julia
Ward Howe was inspired to
write the words of a new battle

hearts of the Union soldiers,
gave new strength at a lime
when victory seemed a long, long
way off.
In 1862, there was no need of
airplane carriers, bombs, bomb

world-sued battle raging along
numerous fronts in both hemi
spheres. There was, however,
in 1862, a sore need, for morale

How soon can we see one?"
With the coming of the war these gynv .

equip the ships of our rapidly expanding
Navy and Merchant Marine. They had never
been built in quantity production.

from Brooklyn to Detroit by fast passenger

we took it apart for study, piece by piece.
The gyro-compass is an intricate, scientific
Instrument of navigation which unerringly
points (and holds) true North. It is not influ
enced by electrical or magnetic disturbances
- that affect the ordinary compass. -'
The heart of the syro-compsss Is its large

We found the compass to contain over ten
thousand mechanical parts, with delicate elec

aided in these' studies by the-Sperry Gyro
scope Company, Inc long . experienced in
gyro-compass manufacture.
Study of the drawings, specifications and
the parts of the compass, helped us decide
which parts we would manufacture ourselves -and
which we would sub-contract to other
companies. Our master mechanics made plans
for more thro' five thousand special tools and
fixtures.-Our planning department began to
order production material. We made the final
selections of men from our organization
whose abilities clearly fitted-them for super
vision of the many tasks of gyro-compass
manufacture. We placed our first orders
among three hundred and fifty subcontractors.
While these things, were going on we
began to build two complete compasses with-

out waiting for completion of our regular
production facilities. By the time these jobs
were finished our manufacturing arrange
ments were made and the quantity produeS!
tion of gyro-compasses actually began. i
In our production program we were guided:
by the same principles that we had used
successfully in the building of cars and trucks.
We believe that if each individual part of the
machine (however intricate) is made right
and the assemblies of the parts are right, the ..
finished product cannot help but be right. .
In manufacturing the gyro-compass all of
the thousands of big and little parts undergo :
the most rigorous test and inspection. They
must always register a perfect score in theu? -successive
balance and precision trials.
