FIRE POWER There are 887 ermor-piereing 20mm cannon
ture, hardly more than one-third the complete load for the three pods (under Navy
A-4 jet) of the HIPEG gun system I High Performance External Gun) developed by
Hughes Tool Company's Aircraft Division in Culver City, Calif., for the Bureau of Nav
al Weapons. The system which fires at the rate of 12,600 rounds per minute on pin
point targets, would fire the shells pictured in about four seconds. Hughes scientists
said a one-second burst delivers upon a tank target the destruction equivalent of a
4,000-pound object dropped from 1,000 feet. UPI Telephoto

Old Ships

Live Again
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - Four
historic ships, once just rotting
hulks, had the feel of happy feel
on their decks again Saturday,
Smiling children ran up the
gangplanks of the sailing schooner
Thayer, the steam schooner Wa
pama, the sidewhecl ferry boat
Eureka and the hayscow Alma,
all vessels that helped make San
Francisco the Queen Port of the
West at the turn of tlie century.
They are the first contingent to
the San Francisco (Maritime State
Historical Monument, which was
opened to the public Saturday.
When completed, the project
will consist of a four acre Victor
ian 'Plaza, the ships, and a brick
warehouse housing 38 pieces of
pioneering railroad rolling stock.
An Old Route I
Many of Saturday's visitors took
Iho Hyde Street cable car to the
gas-lighted plaza and walked past
the pre-1906 quake warehouse to
tlie ships.. .much the same routo
taken by sailors of London's "Sea
Wolf."
The Stale Division of Beaches
and Parks estimated that about
two million persons a year will
visit the monument, dedicated
Wednesday by Cov. Edmund 3.
Brown.
The project was conceived In
IMS by tlie San Francisco Marl
time Museum Association director
Karl Kortum and financed by im
pounded tidclands oil revenues re
. turned by court order to Califor
nia from tlie federal government.
The Maritime Association shep
herded the project through the
state legislature and acted as
consultant to the Slate Division
of Beaches and Parks on refurbish
ing the old vessels.
The association will add Its
wcll-boardcd tourist attraction, tlie
sailing ship Balclutha, to the
fleet.
Lumber and Ammunition
The Thayer was one ot about
120 three-masted schooners in the
Pacific Coast lumber trade at the
turn of the century. The fill-year
old vessel carried lumber to
Australia in World War I and
served as an ammunition barge
in World War II.
After hauling a record codfish
catch of three million pounds In
the Pacific Northwest in 1930, she
almost came to an inglorious end.
She was tied up in Poulsbo.
Wash., as a "pirate ship," which
he naver was.
The Wapama, once famous for
Its speed in loading lumber from
sleep cliffs on the California
coast, had to be rescued from
Seattle, Wash., junk dealer who
started to strip the fittings from
' her. The -ycarold lumber ves
sel was towed to San Francisco.
The Eureka, built across the
bay in Tiburon in IffiW as the
I'kiah once laid claim to the title
of "fastest double-ended ferry
boat In the world." She reputedly
could do 18 knots.
THE DOCTOR SAYS
Blood Type
Plays Factor
By W. G. IWANDSTADT, M.D.
Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
One of the greatest hazards
to the newborn is a result of Rli
incompatibility. If your blood Is
Hh-positive you are one of the S3
per cent with this type of blood.
The rest have Bh-ncgutlve blood.
This grouping has nothing to
do with the A-B-0 groups which
must be determined before a
transfusion is given. Rh-ncgative
mothers who are married to men
who are Hh-positive may give
birth to babies who have erythro
blastosis, a blood-destroying dis
ease that caused many, deaths
before the cause was discovered.
A woman with Mi-negative
blood may become sensitized to
Hh-positive blood through having
had a transfusion with Hh-nosi-
tive blood or through carrying a
baby whose blood Is Ith-positive
like the fattier s.
A woman who becomes sensi
tized during pregnancy but who
has not had a baby with erythro
blastosis has a good chance of
having a baby that is normal.
Or it may have a blood disease,
which is mild and can be easily
controlled with a few small trans
fusions of Kh-negntlve blood
But once the mother is sensi
tized, the dancer to the I n f a n t
becomes greater with each suc
ceeding pregnancy.
The erythroblastic baby may
appear to be normal at birth, but
becomes jaundiced within a few
hours. Tlie jaundice Increases
rapidly and may obscure the pal
lor that would gn with Ihe in
fant's anemia.
This anemia is due to the fact
that the sensitized mother has
developed antibodies that destroy
the baby's Kh-positive blood cells
These antibodies are transferred
to the baby through the placenta
and umbilical cord.
In severe cases tlie baby can
be saved it the possibility of the
disease is recognized in advance
and arrangements are made to
give the baby an exchange transfusion.
This is a massive transfusion
that replaces all of the baby's Rh
pnsitive blood with blood from an
nh-ncgative donor of tlie same
A-B-0 group. Since the mother's
antibodies arc destructive only to
Rh-posilivc cells, the transfused
Rh-negalivo blood is not affected
and the baby survives.
When an Rh incompatibility is
suspected, another procedure Is
also used to improve the baby's
chances. Oddly enough, this is the
induction of lalior 14 to 28 days
ahead of the expected day of de
livery. Tliis is because the trans
fer of destructive antibodies to the
infant's hlood occurs at an ever-
accelerating rate in the last
weeks of pregnancy.
Although, as pointed out in a
previous column, the development
ot tlie baby in the uterus to full
term has many advantages, this
is one instance in which early
induction of labor is tlie lesser
of two evils.
POLLY'S POINTERS
Economy Lesson
. POLLY CRAMER
Newspoper Enterprise Assn.
DEAR POLLY-Our daughter's
wedding had to be arranged on
very strict budget, tor her
album of wedding pictures, I
covered a cloth-covered notebook
with leftover pieces of her bro
cade wedding dress. First a lay
er of old cotton flannel sheeting
was put around the outside cover
for padding. Pieces of the bro
cade were cut so they lapped
generously over the outside to the
inside and held in place with that
popular, all-purpose, milky look
ing iglue that dries clear. As s
finish, cardboard pieces, also cov
ered with the dress fabric, were
fitted to the inside of the cov
ers and it concealed the raw
edges that lapped over from the
outside. We bought the usual ace
tate jacket cover for protection.
Filler sheets were bought at an
office supply store and the total
cost was $3 in comparison to ones
we saw that started at $12. Old
leather and suede jackets
also make luxurious looking
scrapbook covers. Rubber cement
should be used to hold these in
stead of the glue. MRS. F. M. K
DEAR IPOLLY-When taking a
group picture of small children
who sre not the least bit inter
ested in having their picture tak
en, 1 have someone creep kip be
hind me land pretend to be put
ting something on top of my
head like a small toy dog or cat.
Immediately there are quiet chil
dren with smiling, expectant
faces waiting to see my reaction
All my pictures are a success.
MRS. H. K. B.
DEAR POLLY My husband
thought up what we call a
Hat Hanger. Take a wire coat
hanger and cut off the hook and
coil. Bend the wire portion into
the shape of a V and loop each
end so that it can be hailed to
the inside of a closet door. A
man's hat can be easily slipped
into the loop so the wire supports
the crown. MRS. R. S.
DEAR POLLY-lnstcad of lin
ing kitchen gadget drawers with
paper, use turkish toweling. It
will keep the gadgets from slip
ping to the back of the drawers
when they are opened and closed.
They are certainly much easier
In keep in order. Tlie toweling
can be laundered when soiled so
