Explosion Rocks
Central Texas
Fort Hood, Aug. 11 UR—Fori
Hood officials announced that no
injuries resulted from a demoli-
tion demonstration staged for
Oklahoma National Guardsmen
from the 45th Infantry Division.
At the time of the demonstra-
tion, a mysterious explosion rock-
ed several Central Texas towns.
This was first traced to the dem-
onstration itself.. Later, however,
the possibility was advanced that
the blast felt by the Central Tex-
ans may have Tcsrtltod from a sup-
ersonic boom created by jet air-
craft from James Connally Air
Force base maneuvering in tha
area about that time.

Heretofore British stamps were
uniform throughout the United
Kingdom. Only one special region-
al set ever was issued. That was
for Jersey and Guernsey at the
end of World War II to mark the
liberation of the Channel Islands
from the Germans. Those stamps
depicted a horse and cart gather-
ing seaweed from the shore.
Details as to complete designs
and dates of issuance will be an-
nounced soon.
To commemorate the 60th an-
niversary of Devils Tower Na-
tional Monument in W’yoming,

The central design of this n*w

mont reproduced from a photo-j
graph. The wording "50th Anni-
versary Devils Tower Monument”!
appears in three lines across the
bottom of the stamp.
