CHICAGO —(UPI)—A revolutionary system for delivering supplies to front line troops by ballistic cargo missile has been developed for the United States Army by the Convair division of General Dynamics Corp.
Lawrence B. Richardson, senior vice-president of General Dynamics, said the missile—named "Lobber"—can deliver rations, ammunition, medicine, communications equipment and other vital supplies accurately and in quantity wherever and whenever needed.
JUST A START—Herb Camburn, University Theatre costume designer, displays the jewelry that has already been collected for performers in "The King and I."
New Cargo Missile Can Supply Front Lines
Richardson said the Lobber is a first phase of a fast-developing missile technology "that one day may be hurting large priority cargoes across a continent or ocean in minutes, or launching the first human into space."
The lobber and its launcher can be hand carried, if necessary, by a team of three men in the field.
Richardson did not disclose the Lobber's dimensions, range, payload or launching and landing techniques.
sections can be pre-loaded at supply depots, he said, and at least 70 per cent of every missile will be recoverable and can be re-used.
But he said the missiles are simple in concept and operation, accurate and reliable, low in cost and impervious to weather.

Costume Designer Finds Some People Too Generous
Herb Camburn, University Theatre costume designer, has found that all that glitters is not sold; sometimes it's given away.
Mr. Camburn is asking for all the big, bright and shiny costume jewelry he can get, for the November production of "The King and I." He appreciates every single bead and will take "most anything," but he had to return the first jewel to come in. All he wanted was broken down baubles, bangles and beads. Instead he got a diamond ring.
The ring turned up in the bottom of a box of "odds and ends" donated by a Lawrence woman. When he found the diamond, "a fairly large stone" mounted in antique carving, he dug a little deeper and came up with a wedding band.
Mr. Camburn returned the rings to the woman who said she just
threw everything together and had no idea that there was a "good" ring in the box.
Other individual donations range from a single pair of grandam's gilt earrings to a shoe box full of imitation pearls. The jewels are used "as such" and also for trimming on the rich decorative costumes he's making.
The Rodgers and Hammsterin musical has a cast of 85 people who need earrings and chain ropes or beads. Not only Anna and the King, but men and children glitter in the late 19th century Siam setting.
"We have to go all the way on these costumes to convey the glitter of the lavish period," Mr. Camburn said, "A sketchy bit of jewelry here and there would produce a burlesque setting."
Often a mate for an odd earring turns up in someone else's box, Mr. Camburn said.
The call for old jewelry went out in August. Already there have been about 25 boxes of glitter donated. Two downtown stores gave the theater damaged or mismated pieces.
Single jewels and broken pieces of brooches are either "remade" or sewn onto velvet or silk material.
The costume department bought pounds of sequins and gilt paint for silk screening material. If they bought all the decorations for costumes the decorations would cost more than the fabric itself, Mr. Camburn said.
"There's really no limit to the amount of glitter we can use," he said. Donatres may have their old jewelry picked up by calling KU extension 587. They are especially looking for massive and heavy pieces of jewelry.
Later the elaborate costumes will be cleaned and stored with the jewels to be used again or reassembled into costumes for another show.
The show will run Nov. 7, 10, 11, 12 and 14.
