Part of Control for Antiaircraft Weapon "Predicts" Position of Plane

In firing from the ground at enemy planes in flight, guns must be aimed at the spot where the ship will be when the projectiles reach the prescribed height. Soldiers of the Coast Artillery antiaircraft unit from Camp Edwards; Mass., are among the military units using a central tracer control box which “anticipates” the position of a plane overhead.
