EARLY "DRONE" TAKE-OFF—When the "drone" plane got its first public demonstration in 1946 — this was the scene on flight deck of carrier U.S.S. Shangri-La off San Diego May 9, 1946, during first demonstration of radio-controlled takeoffs from carrier. Plane's take-off was controlled from instrument panel at left foreground. This test was part of preparation for use of drones for aerial observation of the Bikini atom bomb tests. William Bonney To Lead Student Government Talk Democratic National Committee Puts Out Full-Color Booklet on Adlai WASHINGTON (UP)—Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson's life story was depicted today in a 20-page booklet on his father, Lewis Green Stevenson, Illinois secretary of state in 1952. William Bonney To Lead Student Government Talk William W. Bonney, 826 S. Lemon, Anaheim, will be one of 10 discussion chairmen of the second annual Whittier college faculty-student conference at Forest Home in the San Jacinto mountains, Sept. 27 and 28. Poet student leaders will meet informally with members of the faculty, administrative staff and trustee representatives during the two-day period to study 10 areas of college life. Working in small groups the conference delegates will have five aims: to develop student leadership, further student faculty relations, gain more experience with democratic processes, insure better understanding and cooperation, and plan better coordination of activities. Each of the 10 discussion groups will be led by a student chairman and a faculty co-chairman. Bonney will head the group on student government. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Wilbert H. Bonney, he was graduated from Anaheim high school in 1949. He served as chairman of the program-publicity committee of the college last year and he is a member of the Lancer society and the Knights. He is a senior at Whittier. Six Are Rescued LONG BEACH (UP)—Six men were rescued at sea after two fishing boats sank, the coast guard reported today. F. H. Delight and W. L. Whi-lock were taken from a skiff after the 38-foot Blanche Lee, out of Redondo Beach, broke up on rocks off Pt. Vicente. The others were rescued after the $40,000 Mary V sprang a leak and sank off Oceanside. They were Capt. Ward Baker, Tom Rice, Jack Wolford and Dick Wolford. The boat was out of San Diego. Democratic National Committee Puts Out Full-Color Booklet on Adlai WASHINGTON (UP)—Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson's life story was depicted today in a 20-page, full-color picture booklet. The Democratic national committee announced that several million copies were being distributed through state democratic organizations. The booklet's color pictures trace back to Stevenson's great grandfather, Jesse W. Fell, "who brought about the famous Lincoln-Douglas debates;" his grandfather, Adlai E. Stevenson, President Grover Cleveland's vice president, and his father, Lewis Green Stevenson, Illinois secretary of state in 1914. The pictures take Stevenson quickly through grade school Princeton, Harvard and Northwestern university. The booklet deals mostly with his service as governor of Illinois, his World War II jobs and his role in the formation of the United Nations. A number of pages are devoted to Stevenson's stand on foreign and inflation, taxes, "bureaucracy," labor and agriculture.

Los Angeles St., Anaheim Use Our Lay-A-Way Plan – Ask for 'Buy in Anaheim' Votes Little People Have Big Dreams and Big People Have Nightmares in NYC By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK, ND—Manhattan is an island where they say the little people have big dreams and the big people have nightmares. They say it is a place where only success is worshipped — where men wreck their health to get to the top, and then worry themselves to death trying to stay there. It is sometimes called a shining citadel of discontent, a stone city with a granite soul, where a man's best friend in his psychiatrist. It's a Fraud When I hear critics say things like that about Manhattan I feel they are like a fellow who goes alone to an amusement park, rides by himself through the "Tunnel of Love" and comes out saying: "It's a fraud." To him it was a fraud, but only because he didn't bring along with him what he needed to make the boat ride worthwhile. Some people come here from elsewhere, dwell reluctantly for a while, then leave it happy in their hatred of it. This always makes me feel a little sad, for I have had a long love affair with New York City, a municipal romance that has brought me much happiness. And I hate to hear anyone run it down, just as I dislike hearing a new acquaintance refer slightlyly to someone he hasn't taken the trouble really to understand. Too Crowded All that is really wrong with Manhattan—the air of rush, the traffic jams, the occasional blunt discourtesies — arise from one thing! It is too crowded. Anyone who can adjust himself to that can love Gotham, and if he can't adjust he really shouldn't come here. Some people just can't be happy in a crowd. I have learned to look on Manhattan not so much as a city, or a part of a city, but as a human being, pockmarked with faults as any other human being but also four. There are some things about New York that make me regretful. After three centuries it is still a clamorous town, more interested in its towering future than its fading past. It tends to shuck off its history like a thought-loss growing boy. Recently, they assassinated a beautiful old church here to put up a tall insurance building, and I felt sorry about that. But, as I say, Manhattan is like human being, and do you know any human without a fault? Some people will always think of New York as a striden beggar-clown in a king's suit. But it is always hard to show a rainbow to a blind man during a summer shower. All he feels is the rain. To these who insist life in Manhattan is just a prolonged case of insomnia, there is this answer: "Washington slept here." And there is no evidence he had to take a sleeping pill. Los Alamitan Serves in Korea With Infantry WITH THE 7TH INFANTRY DIV. IN KOREA. — Cpl. V Van Herreweghe, son of Mr Mrs. Van Herreweghe, Los mitos. Calif., recently comp six months service with the eighth infantry division in Korea. Since making the amphibian landing at Inchon in the fall 1950, the Seventh division fought in every sector of the rean peninsula. Elements of Seventh were the only U.S. troops to reach the Yalu river the Manchurian border. Cpl.

It is too crowded. Anyone who can adjust himself to that can love Gotham, and if he can't adjust he really shouldn't come here. Some people just can't be happy in a crowd. I have learned to look on Manhattan not so much as a city, or a part of a city, but as a human being, pockmarked with faults as any other human being but also gifted with rare talents, virtues and a million different moods to share. It is a wonderful city to walk in, and when I stroll about it I feel like I am having a silent conversation with a longtime friend. Wears Away The feeling of utter loneliness that afflicts a stranger when he first comes here—I felt that way for many a weary month—wears away if you don't insist on staying lonely. The secret terror that these high canyons will crumble upon you and bury you in the debris of your dreams passes. They come to exhilarate rather than depress you. In a life of many friendships I have known no companion more inspiring than Manhattan itself. It can give any man more than he can possibly give it, and if it doesn't give a man what he wants the fault lies in him. More opportunity, financial or cultural, is shoehorned in its few square miles than anywhere else in the world. Wall Street, elegant Park and Fifth avenues, and a wandering former cowpath called Broadway are its famous lanes. But every sidestreet is an adventure in contentment or frustration, beauty or uginess.

Low Last Year WASHINGTON (AP)—The federal prison bureau said today that 105 executions were carried out by civil authorities in the United States during 1951. With the exception of 1950, when there were only 82 legal executions, this was the smallest total for any of the 22 years in which national tabulations have been made. The bureau noted that for the years 1930-1950, the average was 144 per year. Of the 105 executions in 1951 87 were for murder, 17 for rape and one for armed robbery. Those put to death, by electrocution, lethal gas, hanging and shooting, included 57 white persons, 47 Negroes and one American Indian. One was a woman, the first since 1947. Their ages ranged from 18 to 71 with the largest number in 25-to-29 group. However, in the rape cases, the largest concentration was in the 20-to-24 age bracket. The 1951 executions were carried out in 26 of the 42 states where capital punishment may be imposed under ordinary circumstances. There was none by the federal government last year. Seven of the 28 states accounted for 61, or more than half the 1951 total. These were Texas, 13; Virginia, 10; Florida, Mississippi and New York, 8 each; and Georgia and Alabama, 7 each. Idaho for the first time in the 22-year record period, invoked the death penalty and carried out two executions for murder. The grand total for the 22-year period, the bureau reported, is 3,136.
