GOP Chief Confident By RAY CROMLEY WASHINGTON 'NEAl You, too, can be a superman. No tonics. No pills. No exercises. I But you mighl have to join the Army. Quartermaster Corps scientists are beginning to push for the de velopment of a fantastic metal skeleton which a GI would wear around his body. It would give him super strength, endurance and mobility. As a GI moved his hands, arms, legs and feet, the power; mechanism in this skeleton would be "automatically activated" to multiply his strength in much the same way as power brakes and power steering increase the pow er of a car driver. If the Superman gadget works out as hoped, an ordinary soldier could carry six to eight times as heavy a load, push 10 to 20 times as hard, twist with his wrist 50 times as strongly, grip five times as firmly as he can now. The "skeleton," it's now be lieved, would consist of splint like attachments about the arms, body and legs. These attach ments would pivot at shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. The wearer could climb. WASHINGTON iAP Repub-l?,'.' lican National Chairman Thrustoni : B.
