The day's hike is over. The elephants having left later, catch up with the party. The soldiers are looking for their bedding in India on February 20, 1943. Left to right: Corps. Darrall McAfee of Sedan, Kansas Pvt. Jimmie M. Bartlett H. Hohn of San Francisco, California. The American soldiers sometimes had trouble getting their bedding as the elephant party did not always arrive on time because the elephants were partly wild. This was solved by having the Nagas carry all the bedding. (Photo by AP Photo)

Walter Wieczorek, New York police department mechanic, examines a “General Mac Arthur land-water bike” which landed its inventor in the psychiatric ward of New York's Bellevue Hospital on February 16, 1952. Robert Kising, who says he came from the Philippines, tries to cross the Hudson River from New York to New Jersey with his odd contraption. Chunks of floating ice forced him to turn back after he had gone 400 feet, he said. Wieczorek lives at 32-78 thirty-fifth street Astoria. (Photo by AP Photo/JH)

A new hospital bed, called the Stryker CircOlectric Universal bed, designed for more comfortable positions for the hospital patient, is modeled by Jo Marie Smith at the Annual Clinical Congress of the American College of Surgeons in San Francisco, October 18, 1960. The hoops serve as a built-in overhead frame for the attachment of traction apparatus available as accessories for the bed. They act as grasping and exercise bars for the recuperating patient. Power is supplied by a 1/3 horsepower motor. (Photo by Clarence Hamm/AP Photo)
