31. lappuse - TO MEASURE BODY EFFICIENCY Physical competence: Measured by an ergometer. a device similar to a bicycle. Subject pedals Increasing amount of weight while wearing an oxygen mask. Heartbeat and oxygen consumption determined. Evaluation is made by the amount subject can pedal by the time his heart reaches 180 beats per minute. Pulmonary function : Lung capacity and breathing efficiency determined by measuring the amount of oxygen subject breathes normally and during exercise.
45. lappuse - F4Ü fighters in the Marshall Islands. During his World War II service, he flew 59 combat missions. After the war, he was a member of Fighter Squadron 218 on North China patrol and had duty in Guam. From June 1948, to December 1950, he was an instructor in advance training at Corpus Christi, Tex.
