extracted text (Extract Text): GUIDED entirely by sound, a rocket bomb
developed by J. R. Fish, a West Springfield,
Mass., inventor, is designed to zoom straight
for an enemy airplane at the almost incredi-
ble speed of 900 miles an hour. According to
the inventor, the rocket incorporates mag-
netic controls actuated by acoustic appara-
tus, steering itself directly toward the sound
of an airplane motor to explode with ter-
rific force when it reaches its objective. Ord-
nance engineers of the U. S. Army are said
to be interested in the rocket projectile, and
to have arranged a secret test of it on an un-
inhabited island off the New England coast.
