By FRANK CAREY (A. P. Science Writer) WASHINGTON—-A kind of high- flying burglar alarm is among the life-protecting mechanisms in our |B-29 Superforts. The alarm which sounds automatically if press- ure inside the special pressurized cabins of the hig bombers falls below a safe level. Canngcn shell or flak, ripping hol&s in the cabin's walls, would cause a' rapid pressure loss, if the men didn't adjust oxygen masks quickly, they'd il:o overcome. # | Prigadier General Charles R. ;Glenn‘ the deputy air sargeon, in |a report in the Medical Annals of |the District of Columbia, says the automatic warning horn gives crew= men the tip-off on when to slap on | their masks. “Crew members,” he writes, “are |trained to held their breath and to |put on their oxygen mask when the + 'horn sounds. The masks are carried hung over their shoulders |times during pressurized flight.” The Army Air orces have develop- led special “pressure masks” which | deliver 100 per cont oxygen to a man | and enahle him to carry out normal duties for u ha.f hour or more at| |the tremendous lecights of 45,000 to et German soldiers in a trench at Geilenkirchen, Germiny, north of Aachen, hold n[’n white flag of sur- render as soldiers advance with fixed bayonets.
