World War II found him a cap tain and he flew 63 missions most ly as a B-17 pilot in the Pacific. At the war’s end he was a colonel and still found time to work in research and development. After the war he returned to the United States and was assigned to the Pentagon where he soon made himself unpopular for speaking against the B-52. Schriever was in favor of a lighter faster bomber that could fire air-to-ground mis siles. Accused by some associates as “insane” it was 1953 when he pro claimed the theory of placing an H-bomb warhead on an ICBM. It was natural to place “Benny”, as he is known by his associates, in the top drawer of the Air For ce’s new Air Research and Devel opment Command heading a bil- lion-dollar corporation. On the day he was named to the job he was a Brigadier General and 43 years old. Since that time work.has pro gressed in an ever-increasing tem po and now his job is of finding out “how to move an H-bomb 5,500 miles from Point A to Point B in 20 minutes before the Russians can and to produce the hardware to do it with.” FRIDAY » RACtGCNTRY-MYRNftHAWSEN-JUOYNUGENT- ta4 lip I SlorfblW PMUin, A UNIVERSAL-INTERNATIONAL PICTURE SATURDAY MERLE OBERON LEX BARKER win.
