Wednesday, Jan. 8, 1958 University Daily Kansan Around The World Page 5 Defense Bill OK Expected (Compiled from United Press) Congress studied President Eisenhower's first post-Sputnik emergency defense request of $1,260,000.00 today and reports indicated it would be approved quickly. Chairman George H. Mahon (D-Tex) predicted a bill on the President's extra defense request would be ready in 10 days as his House Military Appropriations subcommittee called Defense Secretary Neil H. McElroy to testify on it. Tuesday presidential science adviser Dr. James R. Killian, possibly setting the tone for Mr. Eisenhower's State of the Union message tomorrow, said the United States is strong today, but Russia could surpass it in a few years unless the nation's scientific efforts are stepped up considerably. Members of the Senate Preparedness subcommittee expressed hope the World War II hero would accept Army Secretary Wilbur M. Brucker's plea to remain in the Army, Mr. Brucker all but promised him four stakes if he stays in the Army. Also in Washington, Congressional support was getting behind a move to hold on to Lt. Gen. James M. Gavin, who is threatening to quit as Army missile chief in a fight for freedom to criticize the nation's defense effort. In Cape Canaveral, Fla., scientists began step-by-step preparations before dawn for a fourth test firing of the Atlas Intercontinental Missile.

E.'s, M.E.'s, A.E.'s, Math, Physics and Chemistry Majors: First uncensored photo of TALOS, long range guided missile developed by APL for the Navy. Technical achievement is our sole concern The Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) of The Johns Hopkins University exists solely to make scientific and technical advances. For this reason we are able to offer our staff members freedom to explore tangential ideas, which frequently lead to significant accomplishments. Among our "firsts" are the world's first supersonic ramjet and the first large booster rocket. As far back as 1948 we achieved fully-guided supersonic flight. Today two guided missiles that grew out of our pioneer work are in production: The TERRIER is now a fleet service weapon, and TALOS (above) has been adapted for land as well as ship-based operation. When TALOS was recently unveiled by the Navy, APL shared honors with many associate and subcontractors who had worked under our technical direction in its development. We are presently engaged in missile assignments of a highly advanced nature which cannot be divulged for security reasons. Suffice it to say that, as always our work is of such vital importance and urgency that little is spared to facilitate its progress Scientists and engineers at APL are in the vanguard of science and enjoy the keenest sort of responsibility and challenge.
