Pontiac Building Newest Gun The fastest-firing automatic gun ever mass-produced is being built under Army Ordnance contract for the Air Force by Pontiac Motor Division of General Motors. The defense department’s lifting of secrecy on this amazing jet aircraft cannon being produced by the Pontiac brought to light this week some of the amazing features of the revolutionary gun, officially the "Gun, Automatic, 20MM, M39." It was developed as the phenomenal increases in aircraft speeds demanded comparable increases in the firepower of their armament. Robert M. Critchfield, general manager of Pontiac and vice-president of General Motors, said the security of the gun project had been guarded so closely that many employees at the main plant where the gun has been produced and fire-tested for over a year, are unaware of its nature. Pontiac motor is the only production source of this precision built cannon.

Jayne, member of the congregation when Reverend White was here, and who checked the records while the present church is said to have been named for Reverend White, it actually got its name for its pure white exterior.
