Isle of Enchantment Three days later we reach ed Bali, that fabulous island of enchantment. Its million inhabitants rep resent man at an extraordi narily high degree of evolu tion. Helped by favorable clima tic conditions, they need to invest but little effort in feed ing and clothing themselves and so have built up a unique culture by using their free time in the creation of beauty. It was hard to find a man there who waa not ex pert in playing the game ||ui, in sculpture of wood ind stone, or in dancing. Bali is an island of laugh ter, kindness, generosity, in all departments of life. It is an interesting fact that of all western composers Bach is the most popular on Bali. Bali has about 10,000 tem ples little buildings with w o n e u o i i n a o i s carved in soft stone. Because climatic conditions ruin this stone in about 50 years, stone carving ia a living art on the island. This art occupies thousands of men and I saw an eleven year old boy giving full flight to his imagination in this very exacting work. Faithful At Mecca ssFrom Bali we left for Sing apore, one of the most impor tant ports of the east and which is always full of all kinds of ships. e w a y s a e w e stopped at the Mai dive Is Life Story of Zlatko Balokovic -Master of The Violin Society's 1966 Groups Were Treated In High Style By Croats, Serbs and Others (Continued from P. 9) Tour Party will likewise visit in Serbia one of the greatest attractions on the Continent. It is the famous Canyon of Djerdap (The Iron Gate) on the Danube. Here this great river forces its way between the towering Car pathian and Balkan Moun tains. Near the entrance of the Canyon of Djerdap are the ruins of Golubac, one of the fortified castles of medieval Serbia. On the narrowest part of this Canyon one can see on a cliff above the road, built by the Romans in 103 B. C., an inscription cut into the rock during the reign of the Roman emperor Trajan and known as "Trajan's Ta blet." pitied Centuries Ago v- Mow, back to Belgrade Better known to our peophf as Beograd, this largest of all Yugoslav cities is situated on the hills which reach the slopes where the River Sava enters the Danube. Called Singidunum by the Romans, Belgrade has existed in history as a set tlement for more than 2,000 years and because of its strategic position it was often the scene of battles between warring nations. Today, Belgrade is a mod ern, booming city boasting of attractive surroundings and looking ahead to becoming one of the greatest centers in Europe. Ivan Meštrović's Work Kalemegdan Park will in terest those who come to vi sit this area in 1960. It is an ancient fortress, part« of which date back to( lands where, until recently, some of the most dangerous pirates in the Far East could be found. The weather was so per fect that we crossed the whole Indian Ocean under sail, escorted in the day time by schools of dolphins, and by night by scores of flying fish attracted by our lights. In Aden we visited various points of interest which we knew from Arabian folklore. In Jeddah, the port for Mec ca and Medina, we felt the full measure of Arabian life and the religious fervor of the o a e a n s w o o e from all parts of the world to visit the cradle of their faith. While at anchor there I had one of the strange, memora ble and sad experiences of my life. Wonderful Surprise One morning, while sitting on the deck of our yacht, I observed a man in Arab cloth ing cruising in a motor launch around our ship. He stopped and asked the officer on duty who the yacht's owner was. Having been told our name he repeated it, to my aston ishment, pronouncing it per fectly. Then he asked for per mission to board the yacht. When I rose to greet him he addressed me in perfect Croatian the last thing I would expect from a man dressed like an Arab sheik and informed me that he was the son of a prominent Croa tian political figure, once president of the Croatian Sa bor, Dr. Magsić, and that he left Yugoslavia because he was opposed to King Alexan der's dictatorship. Life's vicissitudes had brought him to Saudi Ara bia, where he was well re ceived and enjoyed living. Hospitality of Yugoslav People Will Astound 1960 Visitors From US, Canada S a i S e a k An Old Peasant various epochs in history: The Roman Well, Nebojša Tower, the Ancient Gates and the Tomb of Sheik Mustafa. On the outskirts of Bel grade is Topčider, a park which merges with a forest. In the center of this park is the Palace of Miloš Obreno vić, a showplace of yester year and still a "must" for tourists. Eighteen kilometers re moved from Belgrade is the mountain A vala. On its peak is a majestic monu ment dedicated to Yugosla via's Unknown Soldier, the work of internationally re nowned sculptor Ivan MeS trović. Mr. Meštrović is now on the staff of the University of Notre Dame at South Bend, Indiana, and ranks among the most distinguished Yugo slavs in the United States. NEXT: To Slovenia and its Capital City of Ljubljana the fantastic Postojna Caves the Lakes of Bled and Bohinj hit« ting the ski trails in June. He asked me if I had re ceived any news from my fa mily living in Zagreb. I an swered that the last news had reached me in Ceylon and that I expected a big batch of mail in Port Said. My Hour of Trial Suddenly he said that he had received that same morn ing the latest newspapers from Zagreb in which he had read about ay father's sud den death. This totally unexpected, tragic news stunned me the more as we planned to meet my father in Split and had been so much looking for ward to giving him, as well as my mother and sister, the pleasure of a prolonged cruise along the Dalmatian and Croatian Littoral. Since I was now anxious to get to Zagreb as quickly as possible, we then proceeded through the Suez Canal, that wonderful realization of the dreams of countless genera tions. And so we reached Port Said. Back In Yugoslavia From Port Said we sailed directly for Split, Yugoslavia. Near Crete we were caught by the worst storm of our whole trip, one which delayed us several days, but in the end we ar rived safely. Our arrival in Dalmatia, the cruise along the coast, the journey by car from Split o u e e o v i n a a n Bosnia to Zagreb, proved once again that in varied and mag nificent beauties, the rela tively small area of Yugosla via has no equal in the whole world.

During a long distance tel ephone call of Feb. 12 last, we were advised by Lodge 975 President bro. Mike Stanley that a surprise of far reach ing nature will be sprung dur ing the dinner end of the Lodge's Tth Anniversary Cel ebration. While bro. Stanley did brief us on all the details, we are not at liberty to give as much as an inkling regarding the nature of the surprise in the making. But of this we are cer tain: It will come to "floor" a lot of people. And make two people in particular very proud of the fact that they acted as the "kumovi" of Lodge 975 when it arrived on the Society's scene back in 1950. One is bro.

So, California Central Committee Puts Accent on Youth Next Meeting March 2 Every lodge president and nest manager commended the Central Committee for its ini tiative in this crucial field. Many, many suggestions, such as prizes to be awarded to the lodges that would make their best talent available for these activities, were noted and held in abeyance until they could be put into effect. The fact that the first meeting met with such co operation and enthusiasm, and adjourned with some thing concrete to look for ward to, is truly an encour aging sign.

Another special meeting to discuss the involvement of the juniors in our lodge activities will be held on Sunday, March 2, at 2:00 p.m., at the Sons of Herman Hall on North Maine and 25th Sts. All officers, nest managers and interested members are urged to attend. In accomplishing this last Chulick swamping, Sis Ahal toppled 487 pins, tying her score the week before. Helen Perhat scored 467 and Marie Juras put her bid by having a 179-449. Bess Tatlock tried to push another game in the win col umn for her team by bowling 494 but didn't have enough help, the best being Mary No vakovich's 432. We are glad to welcome back into our St. Louis CFU Ladies League fold Ann Gerlemen who is fill ing the vacancy made by our good friend Cathie Do mian on the Larks' roster.

Aid Plane Pilots Air Crashes Can Now Be Prevented (Continued From Page 8) On a plane's vertical sta bilizer, the upright struc ture to which the tail is at tached. an infrared scanner is installed. A small dome, shaped like an inverted fish bowl, protrudes from the stabilizer. Inside the dome a fast spinning mirror detects the infrared rays that every ob ject with a temperature a bove zero emits. Infrared rays are made essentially by heat, so air plane engines and their ex hausts are picked up by the detector many miles away. The spinning mirror de flects the images it picks up into an infrared optical sys tem. This reports to the pilot of the plane through a dial on his instrument board. On the dial a flashing ar row points to the direction from which the other plane is coming. Warned by the indicator, the pilot knows where to look for the other plane, sees it, and takes whatever action i« necessary to avoid it. Many Died Needlessly The device is made to spot planes within a range of four to eight miles. It could be made to see much farther, but if it did it would keep the pilot in a state of needless alarm by spotting aircraft so distant that they do not constitute a danger. Analysts of the manufac turer, Aerojet, have check ed the Civil Aeronautics Administration records and determined that in well ov er two-thirds of collisions, the PWI would have given at least 20 seconds warn ing, considered enough to provide safety. The PWI shows where the plane is, but the pilot is part of the system, for he must look toward the point indica ted, judge the speed, range and angle of approach, and make his decision about what to do. Grand Canyon Crash Using the Grand Canyon crash as an example, Aero jet's analysts point out that about five minutes before the collision both pilots were evi dently flying at 21,000 feet. One was traveling at 348 miles an hour, the other at approximately 370 miles an hour. In general, both were headed cast, but one was moving in a more north easterly direction than the other, and they were clos ing at an angle of about 20 degrees. Had either one of them had a PWI system, it is computed that the pilot would have been warned three and a half minutes before they would meet, ample time for them to have been miles apart before they reached the point of ac tual collision. Pass Military Tests It may be possible to make a warning device that auto matically would turn the plane to avoid collision. Such a system would be called the Collision Avoidance System, or CAS. While it might seem that the automa tic CAS would be a surer means of diminishing collision hazard, its complexity puts realization far off in the fu ture. The PWI is here toda/ and will no doubt provide a building block for future Collision Aviodanee Sf» tems. The Aerojet-General Cor poration, a subsidiary of The General Tire and Rubber Company, at present is a large producer of infrared fofc the military service«.
