Adler's invention consists of a transmitter and two receivers, the latter attached to each side of the airplane's nose section. The transmitter sends out irreg ular, micro-wave impulses in all directions within a 20-mile radius. When another plane comes within range of the transmitter, the signal lii'hK up ihe nose receiver on the ide from which it is approaching. It the plane is dead ahead, both receivers light up. Adler went to work on his signal ytem after his private plane nar rowly missed ramming into an air liner over Baltimore.

The situation ha-- worked nut exactly the opposite. In county after county, the drys have piled up big majorities. Voters in most counties didn't give the revenue loss a second thought, the returns indicate. Pobcson County led off the string I dry victories en February 14. !M3. Three days later, Bladen ounty followed suit. On March 2. Pender County vot- 'd out beer and v ine, and on March 2 Graha n and Swain counties both outlawed the beverages.

G:i. iliPi The famous 30th inl.unVy rciinenl, which ha-; been in Ihe nation's battles from 1312 to World War II, is being licked into shape again. Some time in March the lioili is expected to receive orders bring ing it up to authorized strength of 2,891 men and 125 oilicers. Rigid now the regiment, known as "San Francisco's Own " during the period between world wars, has only 54T men and 110 officers. They have been working together under command of Lt. Col. Frank J. Sackton since the middle of January. The 30th put in its Itrks against the British in the War of 1812. and fought in the Civil War before being temporarily disbanded. It was reorganized in 1901 and sent, to almost immediate duly in the Philippines to fight Aguinaldo's rebels. After three years the regiment came back for homeland duty be fore being sent lo the Mexican border as part of Gen. John J. Pershing's punitive force. The 30th served as part of the Third Division in both world wars. In the first it won a regimental Croix de Guerre and was in almost continuous combat. In the second World War it par ticipated in the invasion of Africa,, got to Tunisia just as the Germans pulled out. and went on to the in vasion of Sicily and then of the Italian mainland. :tii m IS Stunt Pilot Puts On Unintended Circus VALLEJO, Cal. (UP. 1 A 51-year-old self-styled stunt pilot put on an unintentional aerial circus here in the fog and luckily escaped with his life. Percy Kinney ran into fog 200 feet after his takeoff, apparently lost contact with the ground and became confused. .Witnesses saw the plane dive be hind a levee on the nearby Napa River and waited for the sound of the crash. Then the plane appeared again, this time hedge-hopping trees and skimming houses. Kinney finally located the runway again and made a landing wrecking the propeller and undercarriage in his attempt. , The wheels were still dripping from a near dip into the river. Kinney escaped with minor injuries and a vow to ground himself in bad flying weather hereafter. Electric Co Bilas For Smumedoate ieSive NORGE 8 CU. FT.
