| contd:- -6- If a pipe giving these results cou-ld be employed it would seem that much less heat to the hot spot would be necessary and it would not have to rely so much on quick warming up of the hot spot in order to get a quick 'get away' when starting from cold. We are constructing another pipe on the lines of the above but having the same type of distributing pipe as the standard Phantom. It is hoped that this will be avail-able for test in a day or two.
