An experimental program was conducted to parametrically study the interference on an afterbody model that would be produced by the aft-support blade used with a wingtip support system. Geometric variables included the blade axial location, thickness, span, chord, and leading- and trailing-edge contours. Data were obtained over the Mach number range from 0.6 to 1.2 with the model at zero angle of attack. Interference was evaluated by comparing afterbody drag from a reference configuration, which had the aft-support blade removed, to the various configurations with a blade installed. A reasonable correlation of the blade interference effects on the afterbody drag coefficient was obtained, which included the influence of support blade axial position and blockage. Decreasing blade leading-edge bluntness by a factor of two resulted in a significant reduction of interference in the Mach number range from 0.9 to 1.1. Significantly greater interference was measured without jet flow than with jet flow. It is shown that a Euler equation computer code is a useful tool for the design of minimum interference support systems.

Armand-Jean du Plessis, Cardinal de Richelieu (1585-1642), the dreaded red eminence, mentor and manager of Louis XIII, skilled in logistics, he subdued in battle the unruly Huguenot aristocracy, successfully resisted France's encirclement by the Hapsburg Empire, and laid the foundation for the absolute monarchy of Louis XIV. - Summary by Pamela Nagami

Con Price recalls the 1870s through the 1940s, growing up in Iowa and South Dakota before heading out on a cattle drive into Montana. Never dull, his life was full of experiences from cattle drives to Indian encounters to cattle wars to frontier romance. - Summary by Gary Clayton

4Through the Gates of the Silver Key

By H. P. Lovecraft and E. Hoffmann Price

"Through the Gates of the Silver Key," published complete in this issue, is an utterly amazing novelette. It is much more than a mere piece of fiction, for it so far transcends human experiences, and even the wildest dreams of human beings, that the ideas and thoughts set forth in the tale are titanic. One searches the dictionaries in vain for words to describe this brilliant and astounding tale, which for sheer imaginative daring goes beyond anything ever printed before. It is the joint product of two of your most popular authors. - Summary by Weird Tales, July 1934

Carl F. Price, a pioneering hymnologist, historian, and author, says, "Every real hymn has its story, if only we could discover it.." This book takes behind the scenes with glimpses of the hymn writers to give us those stories. The hymns range from those from familiar hymnologists such as Charles Wesley and Isaac Watts to earlier writings such as from Saint Stephen the Sabaite, and Bernard of Cluny. Here you will find the story behind "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God," "Onward, Christian Soldiers," "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name." - Summary by Larry Wilson

Carl F. Price, a pioneering hymnologist, historian, and author, presents 52 stories of hymns from the Methodist Sunday School Hymnal to introduce students to the great music of the church, The hymns range from those by familiar hymnologists such as Charles Wesley and Isaac Watts to lesser known writers such as Martin Rinkart, and Henry Kirke White.. These hymns roughly fallow the Methodist church year including Sundays for "Missionary," "Temperance," "Children's Day," etc, and the major holidays of the year. Summary by Larry Wilson

7From the Arctic Ocean to the Yellow Sea

By Julius M. Price

A record of a voyage of discovery and adventure, beginning in Siberia and continuing to Northern China in the late 19th Century. - Summary by LynneT

Carl F. Price, a pioneering hymnologist, historian, and author, says, "Every real hymn has its story, if only we could discover it." From stories behind the hymns, Price now takes us to examine many curious facts about the hymns, such as Charles Wesley's Brogue, Night Scenes in the Hymnal, Book Titles from Hymn Lines, and The Catechism of Hymnal Superlative. - Summary by Larry Wilson
