WHITE FALCON
Saturday, January 20, 1962:
Dribble Derby’
Season Closes
Intramural Basketball at the Naval Station ended Jan.
15, with an exciting- overtime game and a series of upsets.
Jan. 9, Navy Supply rolled over'
USNSGA, 64-49. Bill Minton was
hot for the Storekeepers with 22.
Ray Mammen and Joe Laut each
got 14 for Supply. Security had
some balanced scoring, too, as
Dick Ferguson, Bob Willoughby
and Bill Ward canned 16, 15, and
11 pbints.
Even scoring also accounted for
Rockville’s 76-39 upset of AFI in
the second game. Bill Holman led
all marksmen with 24, as Howard
Travell, Jim Renfrew, and Bob
Crouch aided the Rockets with 15,
12, and 11 in that order. Gil
Honeycutt was the only two digit
man for AFI, netting 16.
In the finale, Curt Hall’s 19
and Dick May’s 11 sparked Navy
Admin to a 49-31 romp over VP-5.
John Wease bagged 13 for the
Mad Foxes.
Bob Longyear and Roy Campbell
combined for 38 points as the
Marines upset AF Supply, 52-44.
Longyear was high for the Leath-
ernecks with 24, but Mike Zernick
took game honors with 26 points.
Aircraft Maintenance had
trouble downing a stubborn Public
Works five, 41-34. Bill Elliot’s 19
and Don Hansen’s 11 were tops
for the Mechs, and Jim Neagle’s
11 and Ray Hargis’s 10 were best
for the Workmen.
Three minutes of extra play was
all that IKF needed in its 43-36
overtime upset of ComBarLant.
Bjarni Jonsson led the scoring
with 14 points. Barlant had no
double digit men.
In another upset, the 57th
squeaked by AFI, 54-53. Jack
Smith had 14, and Ray Butz, 13,
for the Black Knights, but game
honors went to Honeycutt of AFI,
who netted 36.
NavComSta fought from behind
to trip Admin in a close one, 47-
39. Bob Bernhardt and Jim
Gossard swished the nets for 13
each in leading the Radiomen.
Hall hit 15, and May had 13 for
the White-Collar-Workers.
John Stahl, Jim Gibson and
Carroll Moody scored 20, 13, and
12 to pace Hospital to a 66-39 rout
of VP-5. John Wease gathered 16
for the Patrollers.
In another runaway, it was
Rockville burying Public Works,
58-39. Once again, Travell’s 20,
Renfrew’s 16, and Holman’s 14
paced the Rockets. Jim Neagle
was high for Public Works with
16, but teammate Hank Wolfe
chipped in 10.
Rockville didn’t fare too well in
the next game, however, as Navy
Supply plowed them under, 65-35.
Joe Laut had a good night for
Supply, scoring 26. He was aided
by Bill Minton’s 17 and Ray
Mammen’s 12. Travell’s 14 and
Renfrew’s 10 topped the losers
scoring.
Navy Admin stoned AFI in a
whopping upset, 61-24, as five of
the starting men hit for double
numbers. Bob Kistler, Pete
Nemmers, Dick May, John Sarver,
and Curt Hall made the boards
with 13, 12, 11, 10, and 10. Bob
Taylor took game honors with 16.
In Friday’s only game, Navy
Supply whipped the Marines, 58-
48. Minton had 21, and Laut 18
for the Storekeepers. Longyear
was top-dog for the game with 29.
AF Supply defeated ComBar-
Lant, 44-29, behind Mike Zernick’s
16 points. Frank Rizzo hit 11 for
ComBarLant.
Hospital tore up NavComSta,
57-35, as John Stahl, John Peter-
son, and Jim Gibson scored 16,
12, and 10. Jim Gossard collected
10 for the losers.
Aircraft Maintenance fell victim
to VP-5 in an upset, 44-37. Wease
led the winners with 29, and
Elliot had 11 for the Mechs.
In the final game of the season,
Navy Admin had a good fight
with IKF before winning, 53-40.
Hall and May led Admin with 18
and 15, as Jonsson hit 18 for IKF.

Favored types of programs are
westerns, mysteries, sports fea-
ture films, comedies, newsreels,
dramas, and variety shows — in
that order.

Speed Record
A Navy HSS-2 Sea King turbo-
copter has set a new world heli-
copter speed record of 199 m.p.h.
over a three kilometer course at
Bradley Field, Conn.
The twin-engine copter made
the record flight over a straight-
line course in a test sanctioned
by the National Aeronautic Assn.
The claim is subject to confirma-
tion by the Federation Aero-
nautique International in Paris.
The Sea King bettered its own
record for the three kilometer run
set May 17, 1961 at 192 m.p.h.
Three kilometers equal 1.86 miles.
The record is the fourth of
five world major helicopter speed
records now claimed by the boat-
hulled HSS-2.. It set three new
marks on Dec. 1, 1961 when it
flew 182.8 m.p.h. for 100 kilo-
meters, 179.5 m.p.h. for 500 kilo-
meters and 175.3 m.p.h. for 1,000
kilometers.
A Russian Mil-6 holds the fifth
world speed record, 199.4 m.p.h.
for the 15-25 kilometer distance.
The big turbocopter has been
in service with Navy fleet heli-
copter antisubmarine squadrons
since September 1961. It is power-
ed by two General Electric gas
turbine engines.

trouble would be even more af-
fective.
The B-58’s conventional warn-
ing lights consist of a panel of
yellow messages to the right of
the dashboard and a red master
light in the center. A pilot reacts
to them in an average of 12 sec-
onds, whereas flight tests have
shown that the average reaction
to VIPS is three seconds.
All Messages Different.
The pilot’s reaction in terms of
seconds is all important in the
Hustler which can fly more than
1,300 mph at altitudes of more
than 65,000 feet.
Some 20 messages have been
taped, spoken with delibrate calm-
ness and clarity and carefully
phrased. No two messages begin
with the same word.
Typical warnings are: “Ice
forming” — “Engine oil quality
low” — “Rod pin out” — “Utility
hydraulic pump failed” — “Gen-
erator abnormal.”
Such messages will be repeated
until the pilot corrects the trouble
or switches off the voice. If more
than one malfunction occurs sim-
ultaneously, VIPS alerts the pilot
on a priority-of-importance basis.

Cancer in the Air Force last
year appeared in only one out of
1,179 active duty personnel, ac-
cording to figures released by the
office of Major General Oliver K.
Niess, USAF Surgeon General.
The small percentage of Air
Force men with malignancies diag-
nosed as cancer totalled only 692
for the year.
Incidence of cancer among of-
ficers and men was diagnosed at
85 cases per 100,000 personnel. In
comparison, the American Cancer
Society estimates that there will
be 279 new cases of cancer re-
ported in 1962 for a community
of 100,000.
New cases of cancer among
civilians, according to American
Cancer Society estimates, will
reach 520,000 this year.
Meantime, an Icelandic phys-
ician has found an association
between stomach cancer and the
consumption of smoked salmon,
trout and mutton, according to
the American Medical Associa-
tion.
Dr. Niels Dungal of the Univer-
sity of Iceland in Reykjavik says
that “low but significant amounts”
of a known cancer-causing chem-
ical found in smoked meat and
fish might be implicated.

ARC Field Director
Intensified efforts are being
made by the American Red Cross
to recruit additional manpower for
its services to the armed forces
to keep pace with the increase in
military strength resulting from
the current world situation.
Congress approved President
Kennedy’s request to expand the
armed forces to 2,733,000. Togeth-
er with servicemen’s dependents,
this increase will make about
7,000,000 persons eligible for Red
Cross help in time of need. In
order to provide the necessary
services, the Red Cross anticipates
that its currently authorized Serv-
ices to the Armed Forces staff
may have to be increased about 10
percent by the end of next June.
As a result, all Red Cross of-
fices are seeking qualified men
and women with college training
or the equivalent to serve as as-
sistant field directors at military
installations and social workers or
recreation specialists to serve in
miliatry hospitals. The need for
hospital staff is particularly acute.
If there are any military men
at this station who soon are to
be retired and who think they
He conducted the study that
produced those findings in an ef-
fort to explain the high incidence
of gastric cancer in Iceland.
That form of malinancy ac-
counts for 45 per cent of all
cancers in Icelandic men. Dr.
Dungal wonders if diet has any-
thing to with this unusual stat-
istic.
He reasons that fish could have
been the fatal factor inasmuch as
it is a considerable part of the
daily food of the country. Yetr
he notes, gastric cancer is quite
rare among fishermen but fre-
quent among farmers. Perhaps
this is beause the fishermen eat
fresh or salted fish while the
farmers eat smoked mutton and
fish, he speculates.

would qualify for Red Cross em-
ployment they are urged to con-
tact the Field Director in room
195 of the Terminal Building. He
has the necessary information and
application forms.
The increase in military strength
has already caused a rise in the
casework of field directors both
in the United States and at over-
seas bases, particularly in Ger-
many. Chapter Home Service,
which links the serviceman with
his family, has also been affected
by the increase in Selective Ser-
vie quotas and the recalling to
active duty of reserves and Na-
tional Guard units.
Prior to the current steady in-
crease, field directors and chapt-
ers were handling an average of
2,600 messages daily, and about
77,000 servicemen were assisted
each month.
Further need for increased Red
Cross service stems from the re-
activation of military camps and
hospitals in the United States to
accommodate the additional troop
strength. Red Cross teams of five
or six men have been selected for
certain military divisions and will
travel with them wherever they
go, the same as was done during
World War II.
