"We are planning a 'live' display," Capt. Foley announced, "and trust that Hill Field civilians will have the opportunity of visiting the fair and seeing our exhibit 'in action.' It will prove as interesting to them as it will to outsiders." In explanation of his referenda to a "live" display, Capt. Foley said he had been instructed by Col. Lil-buD. Fator, base commander, that visitors should be given every; opportunity to examine military vehicles, handle military weapons and test scientific devices 'used in modern warfare and set up for their education and entertainment., The "Molotov cocktail," the famous Cathode ray machine, the "Walkie-Talkie- " radio, "liquid" smoke and "sniff" sets employed by chemical, warfare instructors in acquainting soldiers, with the odor given off by poison gas are only, a few of the items that will be . shown. Visitors will have a chance to talk into the Cathode receiver and see their voice projected on. a moving picture screen after it has been converted into an electrical impulse; try the novel "Walkie-Talkiand check their recognition of mustard, phosgene and other gases on "sniff" sets. In the back part of the "big top in which the OASC exhibits are housed will be a "crashed" plane as it appears immediately after impact with attendant smoke, fire and debris while a simulated - air raid "alert" will feature an antiaircraft crew firing "live" ammunition, a sleek 0 plane poised for take-of- f and giant search lights probing the sky for imaginary enemy craft Demonstration of modern rifles, light cannon and revolving gun turrets, protective clothing, decontaminating equipment, field communication units and a score of other military equipment has been arranged.
