DEATH ROCKET
CAN KILL FOE
AT 200 MILES
WORCESTER (Mass.,) April 18
Dr. Robert H. Goddard, professor of
physics at Clark College, acting un
der the patronage of the United StaV s
War Department, the Smithsonian In
stitution, Clark University and Wo -
coster Polytechnic Institute, has in
vented a new rocket that is reported
to he a terrible engine of war. mil's
straight up into the air and a distance
range «>f at least 200 miles.
The locket , in the opinion of th'
scientists who have investigated it <
workings, is the most efficient rocket
ever developed. It is claimed the best
known rocket in use today, has an
efficiency of less than 2 per con*,
while the Goddard rocket has an effi
ciency of 0l> per rent.
TOO LATE FOR WAR.
The rocket has been developed in
a special laboratory at Worcester
Tech, and the signing of the arm is

tier prevented its being put to actuur
use in warfare against the Germans,
as all the local tests had been com
pleted. These teats, made by model •,
showed that rocket weighing thirty
pounds, equipped with the Goddard
system of propulsion, could be sent in
to the air far above the earth’s at
mospheie.
The Goddard rocket is propelled by
a perfected gas engine installed in
the lower pail of the shell, the cx
plosions that generate the power com
ing from cartridges that are fed into
the chamber by a clocklike time d *
vice. The range of the rocket is lim
ited only by the amount of propcllinr
caitridges it could he fitted to carry.
CAN START ANYWHERE.
The rocket does not require a can
non to start it on its flight, the join •
ney beginning from any point whom
a man can get. The weapon feature
of the rocket is the head, where a
chamber is fitted to contain eithe
high explosives or gas.
Men who have followed the devel
opment of Dr. Goddard's rocket claim
it can be made as efficient in navr1
wa, fare as in land battles.
