Making Gyroscopes
Is Difficult Task
-«
\ ou can take the word of o vpter
an Tiffany jeweler that. wm- it
comes to super precision, you’ll have
a hard time finding a job requiring
more painstaking work than making
gyroscopes—those robot “sea cap
tains” that pilot racing torpedoes to
their targets. Gray-haired William
Edward Robinson is dean of a grow
ing group of jewelers and watch
makers who gave up their peacetime
jobs to help make gyros in an East
Coast plant of the American Can
Company. He’s had 50 years of
watchmaking experience in England
and the United States. “A scratch on
ly two millionths of an inch deep re
sults in condemnation of some of the
Finer parts,” he said, “and regular
an its are machined down to a tenth
)f a thousandth of an inch, which is
lot exactly child’s play when you
consider that a human hair is about
!50 times as thick." A gyro’s job is
;o ride herd with unfailing accur
icy on the hell-bent explosive mass
>f machinery that makes up a tor
icdo. It is motivated by a powerful
et of compressed air from the tor
ledo’s air flask. Whirling at blind
ng speeds of more than 10,000 rev
ilutions a minute, a gyro controls a
mall steering engine which resists i
ny inclination to change the torpe
lo’s position in space.

One of the best known residents
of her section, and also one of the
most enthusiastic endorsers of Re-,
tonga is Mrs. Robert A. Baugh, Route
2, Raleigh, who runs the lunch room
at Mt. Auburn School. Mrs. Baugh
is herself the mother of ten children.
Discussing her case, Mrs. Baugh de
clared:
"1 suffered so much distress from
nervous indigestion and gas in my I
stomach that sometimes I felt like !

suffered badly from sluggish elimi

nerves were so badly on edge that I
never seemed to get any sound sleep.
1 lost weight and I felt so weak and
worn out that I did not see how I
could keep up my work at the school.
“Retonga promptly relieved all this
harassing distress, and 1 have regain
ed ten pounds of my lost weight. I
feel so much stronger that my work
at the school is no longer a drudgery.
1 wish all my neighbors and friends
could know about this grand Re
tonga.”
Retonga is a purely herbal gastric
tonic medicine combined with liber
al quantities of Vitamin B-l and is
intended to relieve distress due to
loss of appetite, insufficient flow of
gastric juices in the stomach, con
stipation. and Vitamin B-l deficien
cy. Retonga may be obtained at
