Wilnstlons Nephew Spins Fine Yarn It Lis no imean flca1t for a Vre to keep attentionr on hnrmsclf when the other leadlirg charaýcter in his book ' s Sir Winstîni huchl.But thlis trýick is per- forrned by Sir WVinston's npe John Spencer Churchill, 52. Ws aiutobiography, "A C h u r c h i I1, Canvas" is full of Uncle Win- .,ton, but also manages to beguil'e the reader with J.S.'s own c om- plete set of high si ,pirits and ec- ent ricit ies. The son of Uncle Winston's militairy brother, IMjor '"Jac:k" Churchill, the bald and bree2zy J.s. often stayed asý a child at Blenheimi, the gîg1antic Mai lbýr- ouhfamily palace, where UnclIe Winston was born. Here J.S. was pariclary mpe îLd'by a huge tuedlion, in thie great hall, hihgav'e vent to a roar uo the pulling of a caird attached tn rt avel. At I{arro)wJ.S. w'-s ehî-iely notaLble as an acrobat, ard it Oxford hie belonged to a dash- ing club which made a speialty of luýxuriouis railway joy rides, Hie eniven1ed his, early social l! e with a terrifying practical joka: Bis acrobatic skill allowed him to plunge suddenly over high balstrdes(haniging on, how- tev r, while thec air still ecfioed wi-th shrieks). In trailing bis f irst love through Euirope, hae develoýp- ord the use o! a faise mutstache- as a disguise, against ber cbap- rnand in a lateçr amour hie 'ciund similar value in a faîse beard. From hi is youtb, J.S. wîas usi- cal1 and artistic, and hae becamie eanmural pinfter with, confessed- ]y, no personal style but much faýcïiity in adapting ciassie an.d traditional manners. He has had four wives, al beauties ln their pbotographis, and each representý- ing a markedly different experi- Ince (one, for instance, left hlm for a French c.ount, and another %tirred rnany Feligious issues). H-e writes about tbem Il pua- gently and symnpathetically. It seemns somehow characteris- tie of J.S.'s whlole bizarre career that when hie lef t Spain dluring the Civil War, the boat bore evi- dence of the South American white-slave traffic, in the formi of a c-age for the girls. Further, when fie applied for the Britisb camouflage service durîng Worid War il, lte first three officers lie encouintered were ail deaf. Ulti- mately, hie made hirnself urnder- .tood, and engaged in brave and vivid frontlîne service during the faîl of France. He made two drawings o! the Dunkirk evacua- tion-"probably the oniy, authen- tic ones" by an artist wbo vwas on the scene. Uncle Winston was obviously proud of himn. J.S. states frankiy that the Churchill-ijn-chief bas always regarýded hlm and his old Playmnate, Uncle Winston's ,On Randolph, as "chuîld-rn." If J.S. deserves the termn, le is certainly- a mis chievous youngster who bas &dded color a-ndl high jinks to a famnily album. 4'Hair turns grey because of lack, of vitamins," says an avr tisemient.

The X15, the -United 'States' fantastie rocket plane, scwept out o! the sky at the unbelievaibie speed of 4,070 miles an houî- in aniother test of the researcli craft While thie rocket plane is an edge-of-spac( ehvale, il is sili a planie rather than a ýrocket so thatwil the speed isn't as fast as the missiles and space va- bidles it is certainly the fastest aircraft in the world. 1That type of speed would take you fromf Newr York to Washîng- ton latIree minutes or from New York to Los Angeles ln just over haîf-an-hour. It wasn't so -many years ago w,,har n an was reaching speedt o! 400 miles par hour in racing- type airpianes. Todiay the spaad îs 10 times as great. The engineers dlo not plan to push the speed of the X15 any further, but the next test is an altitude approach with a hoped for height o! 250,000 feet or rearly 50 miles high. Evantually, the designers believe the X15 may go as high as 100 miles or into the' edga of space and back. Ia bue test the left 'wiad-shieId- of the plane shattered as pilot Bob White was bringing the craf t la for a landing. At the time o! the shattering, theý plane was going about 1,500 m.p.h. -at about 70,000ý feet. In discussin1g the incident, White said «The sbatterinig wal proba-bly due to thermal-heat- expansion and contraction of tle wînmdshieid1 frame.
