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

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

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

other employes who may happen

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
