LOOSE THREADS ) By Gene McKim ( 5 J r ERMAN rocket enthusiasts have set themselves the goal of encircling the globe in J0 minutes. Reinhold Tilling is the inventor of this machine which goes up like a bullet and then spreads wings to descend like a sail plane. The idea is that the rocket will have to climb to the stratosphere the outer layer of atmosphere where the air practically does not exist. Once a rocket is built which can achieve this, it theoretically can attain a cruising speed of 3, 000 miles an hour. The rarity of the atmosphere at altitude of 50,000 to 200,000 feet would handicap the ordinary air plane engine which depends upon oxygen which it sucks in and which is driven by a propellor that must "take hold" of the air. For the rocket planes these would be no handicaps as the roc ket operates on a principle of pro pulsion by recoil functions even in a vacuum better in fact because of the lack of resistance. The idea is that the enthusiasts are planning on going around this globe at a high speed as a prelimi nary to conquering space between the moon or any of the other neighboring planets. To take full advantage of recoil power these planes would have to achieve an altitude of 600 miles. There the theory is that the pull of gravity would be balanced by centrigugal force. Running out of fuel there the plane, left to itself would encircle the globe indefinitely. THE idea of achieving higher speeds in aircraft may be all right, but right now it seems that the big difficulty in the develop ment of commercial navigation is in securing pilots sufficiently skillful to land a plane at the high speeds necessary for their opera tion. Even with the training to which commercial pilots are put before they are allowed to operate transport planes, crashes are far from unknown. For the laymen to operate the modern airplane is far from practical, for the majority do not have the time or money to spend on the training necessary. The development of the autogiro now that is something. When that invention is developed to the extent that planes can come down to earth in a gentle manner, then the layman can begin to take an interest in running one of the con traptions. Also, when planes can be oper ated at more moderate speeds, es pecially when taking off and land ing, then commercial navigation will become much safer. So, from a layman's standpoint it would seem much more practical to expend time and money on ex periments In controlling the speed of planes and in making for the safe operations of them, rather than in attaining more speed, which under present conditions at least can be put to no practical ad vantages. DESIDES the new industry of bootleerina" which the nrnhihi- tion era has developed, and which Gerben ReBecky, University Ilolstcin Cow, Is Outstanding State Producer Probably the outstanding herd of purebred Holsteln cattle in the state of Nebraska is that herd of some fifty animal at the North riatte subetation of the University of Nebraska. .Among the state records held by this herd are ic ords for 8b5-iay testa in the ma ture class, senior four year old class, junior tour yt-ar old class, and senior three year old class. One of the outstanding cow in this herd is Gerben ReBecky, offi cially known as N. P. Scgis Gerben ReBecky. Th:s cow has three rec ord each above 1,200 pounds of butter in 365 day and six records that average about 1,000 pounds of butter. Her son is being .ised at the present time in one of th best Holstein herds in Jefferson county, Wis., recognized as the outstanding Holstein county in the United States. High Fat Producer. This North Platte herd of pure bred Holsteins was started in 1913 when the substation purchased live cows. It is from this beginning that the present herd has largely descended. Fourteen members of this herd have produced more than 800 pounds of butterfat, or 1.000 pounds of butter, in 365 days, the length of test recognised as having the greatest value. Recently a check on the daily production showed that rour cows were giving almost fifty gallons of milk per day. At least one of these cow is expected to produce more than 1,000 pounds of butter during the present year. There are three cows in the herd thiit have produced more than 1,000 pounds of butteifat in a year. One of then, the well known Beautv Girl, has three records above 'l.OOO of fat. For a time she held the world record for butter production in three consecutive lactation periods. She is the pres ent holder of the Mate record in the mature class. This development of an out standing dairy herd is one of the activities of the college of agricul ture of the University in develop ing the dairy industry of the state, It was pointed out. is valued at two billion yearly by a recent analyst, thus placing it among America's greatest indus tries, a union among waiters of the speakeasies is now threatened. The speakeasy operators and waiters are working on an organi zation for mutual protection ac cording to reports. One of the at tractive advantages of the new union is to be the creation of bail and bond service which will be of fered bartenders, waiters and the other employes who may happen to run afoul of the provisions of the Volstead act. College graduates looking for employment might look into this industry. As it is a new, and evi dently growing one, possibly they might do worse. aris Land freshmen in on week nighUi any way, and that others don't know enough about their standings to stay at home and study if it's ne cessary, their college training is lacking somewhere. Just another of these grown up peeves! We don't know enough about ourselves to know what's good for us, appar ently. Why cant they even give Juniors and seniors a special dispensation once in a while? Other schools have been known to give their up perclasswomen occasional break. But no, Coedna, you little devil. You've got to go to bed. Maybe you can listen to Bemie over the radio if you'll be good. So endeth another bedtime story that could really be something of a novel. a minor part, and that part waa a minor one, but the acting by him far surpassed the lead character. The moving picture world seems to run in a cycle. First, the av erage run of the show were the dramatic love type. The movie world wont to the S. S. Van Pine series starring Bill Powell and his mystic mystery. Now for the past month we have seen nothing but the killing of gangs, and a short synopsis of the beer running in dustry. It would be a big relief to the movie public to be able to sec a variety of shows at the same time. Ko.M LIERE'S a new contest. Who is the laziest man on the cam pus? Answer, the campus cop. He wont sit down because he says he can't stand to think of having to stand up again. Everybody else is next in line. Swimming pools would open just when cram sessions ought to. Weather becomes condu cive to outdoor activity just when professors become compulsive on indoor sports. Everybody is meaninglessly hap py or glum for a good reason. Lawyer's widows sit around dole fully. Medic sweethearts peer at the moon alone. An occasional Phi Beta Kappa widower wanders dis consolately along the street. AND in the midst of it all, Ben Bernie somes to town. Coeds were so bold as to hint that they would like a twelve-thirty night, since treats like that are so few and far between. They were told that it would not be granted, so some of them were unfortunately outspoken enough to say "O. K." We'll stay out of town." This was taken by the powers that be as an insult, a defiance of authority, and so on, and we are told that no per missions to stay out of town will be granted. gOME justification, no doubt, but why can't Miss Piper and com pany realize that houses keep the Movie Revues BY R. A. C. They're not gangsters, not rack eteers, not beer runners. Six men who rose up and faced the facts. They had been suckers long enough. They refused the bribes and offers of the gang leaders and planned a drive that would blot out the "Big Boss," Wallace Beery, alias Scorpio the killer. The plot opens with Scorpio as the killer in a slaughter house. The pay seems to be a bit poor so he breaks for the bigger and more easy money as the killer in a gang of beer manufacturers. In order that the story might be a bit more nerve racking the producer enters a mob of rival gangsters. This, of course, gives the killer a chance to prove his worth and the play as was planned adds a bit more blood. The platinum blonde of "Hell's Angels," Jean Harlow, portrays the part of the girl at the cigar counter. John Mack Brown as a newspaper reporter gets mixed up in the gang and at the same time falls in love with the blond. He gets to knowing too much for the boys so they bump him off. Some shows are good and some are better, and there are a few that are not so good. Some shows are supposed to have a lead char acter, who in turn is supposed to play the most important part and receive the most credit for the acting. They say that a good sup porting cast will make a better show. Lewis Stone as the defend ing attorney was supposed to play 16 TO TRY BARBERRY ERADICATION WORK (Continued from Page l.i this year will center around four Nebraska counties. They include Valley.
