Atomic Clocks Confirm Einstein Time Dilation
Scientists Richard Keating and Joseph Hafele flew four atomic clocks around the world on two 80 hour trips. Eastbound clocks ran slow by 40 nanoseconds, westbound clocks ran fast by 27 nanoseconds, confirming Einstein relativity. Navy funded test shows atomic clocks can be synchronized across global operations for defense and exploration.

Army misses 5,000-man monthly enlistment goal for combat arms
Maj. Gen. Albert H Smith says the Army cannot meet the 5,000 volunteers per month target for infantry armor and artillery despite pay raises and Europe and Hawaii assignments. He suggests a $3,000 combat bonus could boost enlistments, while Defense Secretary Laird hesitates to implement it as pay raises take effect. February figures imply continued shortfalls into spring.
