New Shoulder Cannon Passes Infantry Tests CAMP COOKE, Cal. 0J.PJ A small infantry combat team shouldered their weapons today, went out into the hills and blew the engines out of a replica "ene my armored column." Two men poised above a nar row defile smashed and blasted obsolete tanks and half-tracks into so much junk with their new shoulder weapons. The ICth Recoilless Weapons Team and the 20th Armored In fantry had demonstrated to the satisfaction of veteran Army ar tillery and infantry officers that the doughfoot could carry, load and fire from his shoulder 57-mm. or 75-mm. cannon without suffer ing from recoil. New Recoil Theory While powder flashes and smoke roared out both ends of the new "shoulder cannon," observers saw the gunners remain on their feet, not visibly shaken by recoil or shock from the guns. , Resembling elongated bazookas with telescope sights, the shoulder cannon use a new theory of re coil absorption which reverses the usual principle of building up chamber gas pressure to launch the projectile, Army officers ex plained. Gases are allowed to escape by means of a choke ring located in the breech of the weapon, elimina ting the jarnng recoil which would normally smash back from the discharge of such large pro jectiles. Heavy recoil and counter recoil mechanisms, tail pieces and crew protection devices usuallv used tn mounted field pieces are thusj eliminated. ' "Horatio at the bridge is a pik-j er compared to the 20th century infantryman now," said Lt. Ken Hultgren, leader of the testing j team. "One doughfoot and a load- er can hold ud an armored column and destroy its vehicles and men with one of these cookie cutters."' Striking Power Greater Range of the weapons, usintr a new-type propellent which enables! the projectile to pierce four-and-ai half inches of solid steel armor plate, is estimated at 1,000 yards. The striking power of the projec tiles is increased raher tha de creased in the shoulder artillery, Hulterren said. - ''Employment of recoilless weapons will change infantry j ground tactics in that small umts will nerform artillery missions, but they are not intended to re place artillery," Hultgren added. ''They merely augment artillery by placins: these weapons at the command of the infantry down to the squad leader. One of which expressed the in fantry's opinion of the new wea pon after the test: "I carried enough junk around on my back in Italy to fight a small war, but now gives cannons' Ohhh, my achin' back!" 1H MEN'S BLUE TWILL WORK SHIRTS Sizes 6 to 17 1-2 $1.89 BOY'S PLAID FLANNEL SHIRTS Sizes 6 to 16 $1.25 Scholarship Fund Is Established at Nebraska University : LINCOLN, Neb.
