Precision and Power in Warplane Engines.
From the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce of America in Los Angeles comes striking data on engine power and precision in today’s war machines. The Wright Cyclone delivers 1750 horsepower per cylinder, a bomber’s 7000 horsepower total, and the B-19 bomber in Douglas’s California plant carries 11,900 gallons of gasoline and weighs as much as a locomotive. Maintenance demands are extreme, with 45,000 inspections and tolerances finer than a spider’s web. Interchangeable parts are essential to American aviation, built atop a foundation of American automobile and civil aviation skill.

Fulkerson Shines as LSU Ends Auburn Bracketed by Spotlight
Dick Fulkerson rose from Pine Bluff to star as LSU sophomore end in the 1939 season. He helped LSU defeat Auburn on November 15 by forcing a fumble at the one foot line and catching a pass to set up a touchdown. The New Orleans Times-Picayune praised him as a rising pillar of LSU, ahead of the Tulane game. Fulkerson, living with C. P. Tottenson years earlier, later shared accommodations with Jack Barrett, another LSU sophomore. Barrett earned AP sophomore team honors in the South in the aftermath of the Auburn game.
