Still un-answered satisfac- terily is the question whether seven-year-old Super- e jet fighters at high altitudes. An official answer, however, may te found in the final and top-secret report on the air games. So far a query on the point has ;orought an emphatic “no” from Air Vice-Marshal Sir Basil Embry, head of the British Fighter Com- |mand. He said: | “We have shown we can master the Superforts both in speed and | height.” After that, the official ilence developed. Meantime, some newsmen who| flew with the biz American bomb- 'rs disagree with Sir Basil. They {say the B-29's flying at 35,000 feet or more experienced only feeble \‘and sluggish attacks from jet fighters. The fighter planes they | ‘said, barely were able to beat the bomber speed of more than 400 |miles an hour at that height. Technicians involved in the games found it hard to reach a firm con- clusion on the point. } Major General Leon W. John- | |7on turneq away questions with a ||diplomatic reply. As commander of three groups of B-29s in Eng- |'and, General Johnson commented: {|{“It is a healthy sign when fighters |believe they can handle the bomk- 2rs and tombers believe they can handle the fighters.” ‘SONS OF NORWAY TO ATTEND HILDRE RITES Members of the Sons of Norway are requested to attend the An- drew Hildre funeral services to- morrow afterncon at 2 o'clock in the Chapel of the Charles W. ||| carter Mortuary | ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS The Fairbanks School District, an || independent school district corpora- tion, acting by and through the President and Clerk of the Board of Directors, will receive sealed bids at the office of the Superintendent of Schools, Fairbanks School Building, Fairbanks, Alaska, until 8:00 o’clock P.M., August 15, 1949, at which time | said bids will be publicly opened.
