Predicted leaps in air rail and heliport transport
Industry figures forecast 1800 mph planes and 150 mph monorails. Vertical takeoff crafts could shrink London Edinburgh travel to 15 minutes with underground airports and daytime noise remains a hurdle. Monorail surface links between Westminster and London Airport could run in six to seven minutes, while rail speeds near 100 mph with atomic power may cut London Edinburgh trips to four hours.

Aureomycin Improves Early Growth in Poultry Feeds
A study at the Canada Department of Agriculture experimental farm in Brandon tested aureomycin in chick starter, rearing, and laying rations. Results showed faster growth and better feed efficiency through eight weeks, but weight differences leveled by 15 weeks and egg production overall did not increase. Continuous use from chick starter to laying quarters aided egg production and efficiency, whereas skipping starter negated benefits in later rations.

Helicopter Soundings Aid Labrador Arctic Patrol
Three helicopters aboard the Arctic patrol vessel Labrador conducted soundings in uncharted waters during a one month northern operation. They lowered lines from hovering craft to read depths, found a five fathom shoal beneath a fifty three fathom chart, and aided ice reconnaissance and cargo tasks. They also located a lost US soldier and reported a warehouse fire near the DEW line to prevent a major loss.
