Food Freezer
Project Sef
At Corvallls
OREGON STATE COLLEGE
Ways of increasing the efficiency
of commercial food freezers and!
uf improving frozen food quality
in turn will be studied by the Ore
gon State college engineering ex
periment station on a new 517,600
grant.
Research will be aimed at
solving problems encountered by
commercial plants in freezing
quantities ol packaged foods at
one time.
George E. Thornburgh. assistant
professor of mechanical engineer
ing, is project leader. Working with
him are Milton B, Larson and A.
D, Hughes.
The big engineering difficulty
laced is one of equal distribution
of cold air currents through the
freezer so that packages "inside"
the stacks of packaged foods can
be frozen in approximately the
same time as packages on the out
side of the trays.
The QSC engineers will try ro
arrangement of blowers and re
designing of the freezer in an at
tempt to get the air to better pene
trate the stacks of foods rather
than "skirt" around the sides, top
and bottom. This would cut down
the totaV required freezing time.
suve money for the plant and give
more uniform product.
Keeping quality, looks and tex
ture of food are also affected by
length o freezing time, OSC food
technologists report. "The faster.
the fi-eeze, the better the keeping
quality," they explain. Delayed
freezing may permit bacterial
spoilage to occur.
Slow freezing also produces large
ice crystals in the food, disrupting
normal food tissue. This is parti
cularly a problem with vegetables
and fruits but meat and fish fro
zen slowly tend to lose more juice
in thawing. "Drying out of foods
is also greater' with slow freezing.

OPEN' CHRISTMAS EVE
Closed Christmas Day, Dec. 25
Special tu The HulU-tiu
SPOKANK, Wash. The civi
ban volunteers of the Ground Ob-
Server Corps stand long and tedi
ou watches during air defense
alerts, but it is seldom possible
for ihm to be appraised of tho
results pf their efforts," Brigadier
General Sain W. Agee, 9ih Air
Division Commander, stated at hi
Geiger Field headquarters today
"Complete and comprehensive
evaluations of exercises carv.ot be
given to the general public with
out compromising our security,"
he added.
To inform the public of the value
of the Ground Observer Corps,
Gen. Agee gave the followin;;
evaluation of an air defense exer
cise recently conducted within the
Western Air Defense Force, of
which the 9th Air Division and
eastern Oregon are n part. Gen
Agee said this could have been
any filter center area during any
exercise, or it could have been
the Bend Filter Center and the
posts throughout this area, and
faker aircraft could have been
real:
"Faker aircraft, composed of
four B-29's, flew the mission at
night with running lights on and
at an altitude of 20,000 feet. The
fakers approached the target atva
separately from different direc
tions, rendezvousing within 20
minutes of each other, thin de
parting on identical tracks in
steam. Of these, two were lost
prior to reaching the target area.
In the 30 minutes period leading
to the approach of the rendezvous,
five Ground Observer Corps de
tections were made on the exer
cise aircraft. The first two plots
were on a penetration heading and
carried an aircraft that had been
lost to radar for quite some time
These calls were 12 minutes apart.
Two more detections 10 minutes
apart were made as another fak
er orbited over the rendezvous. II
is significant to note that radar
had lost contqet with this aircraft
also. The final detection was made
on another aircraft over the ren
dezvous. It cannot be determined
whether this sighting was made
on a faker that was continuously
tracked by radar, or on another
i hat had never been JtMected or
tracked."
"From this analysis it ran b'
seen that uV Ground Observer
Corps furnished some very vital
and valuable information at a time
when it was needed moit", Cen
Agee said. adMins: "With all such
cases combined this makes (in irrv
mease contribution to the air de
fense effort. ' Mrs. Bernada D,
Hinds, admfrUtrativo supervisor of
the Bend, Filter Center, and the
hundreds of other volunteers both
at the filter center and the Ground
Observer Corps posts throughout
this area perform similar roles
during each air defense exercise.
"The importance of the work
done by these civilian citizeas can
not be over-em phasized. The fact
that they stand ready to assist In
the event of an enemy air attack
causes the other members of the
air defense t(am to have a keen
appreciation and respect for the
people of the Ground Observer
Corps."
