BOMB WEBS that can be thrown in the way of enemy planes have been suggested as a new antiaircraft weapon. Encased in a shell, the web is shot into the air and there released by an explosive set off by a time fuse, spreading out like a giant spider web. The instant the plane hits any one of the steel cables, the bombs at the ends of the web's tentacles whip in toward the plane and explode on contact with it, resulting in the plane's destruction. The device was designed by Asa B. Carmichael, of Tujunga, Calif.
