OSC Gets $30,000
Grant For Army
Weather Research
OREGON STATE COLLEGE
Use of radar and other new
electronic devices for forecasting
and observing weather are under
study by the Oregon State col
lege physics department with a
new $31,000 grant from the U S
army signal corps engineering
laboratories.
Started a year ago, the study
involves development of latest
techniques for predicting weath
er elements significant for army
operations. Dr Fred Decker, as
sistant professor of physics, is
project leader. Last year's grant
for the work was $29,000.
Studies, though particularly
keyed to army needs in various
military situations involv i n g
communications, transportation
and weapon utilization, will
have wide opplication in other
fields, Decker pointed out
A portable weather radar trail
er is being used to make spec
ial storm observations in the
Cascade and Coast Mountain
ranges and the merits of fixed
weather radar and the portable
equipment will be compared.
Techniaues for forecasting the
onset and paths of severe storms,
for determining storm intensity
and duration, lightning occur
rence, wind and temperature
changes, freezing and thawing,
and occurrence of fog will be
examined during the coming
year.
Radio positioning of lightning
discharges, high altitude photo
equipment data will be used,
graphs, and cloud base and top
Graduate students performing
meteorological studies connect
ed with the project are Herbert
Kershaw and Cloan Powell of
Corvallls, Radar and other elect
ronics techniques have been
studied by Robert Hunsucker
and Julian Pike, Portland; Ro
bert W Sutton, Medford; Allen
Fulmer, Salem; and Arthur
Hershman, Valparaiso, Ind.
Earlier, Decker participated In
a two-year research project for
the signal corps on weather ef
fects on army operations as re
vealed in tactical histories of
World War II and the Korean
conflict.
Half of Oregon
Farm Products
Sold Elsewhere
More than $200 million are ad-
dorl tn Oregon's economy each
year by farm products shipped
to out-of-state markets, accord
ing to Oreeon State college agri
cultural economists.
Out-of-state sales account for
about one out of every two dol
lars taken in by Oregon farmers,
in thp rase of some specialty
crops such as Oregon's $15 mil
lion annual pear crop upwaras
of 90 percent are sold outside
the state.
Crons with more than 90 per
cent of farm receipts from ship
ments to out-of-state markets in
clude snap beans and strawber
ries, each grossing around $10
million a year.
Other berries, niberts, pepper
mint oil. hoDs. cannery beets,
green peas, cherries, prunes, and
more than a dozen grass ana
legume seed crops are in tne yu
nercent-plus groups highly de
pendent on outside markets.
Wheat and cattle top the out
side market list for dollar vol
ume. More than three-fourths of
the cash income for Oregon's $50
million annual wheat crop comes
from outside the state, and one
fourth to one-half the $G0 million
yearly sales of cattle and calves
are out-of-state.
The OSC economists say sales
outside the state probably ac
count for 75 to 90 percent oi tne
rash income from farm forest
products a $15 million yearly
business and trom sucn crops
as onions, walnuts, sweet corn,
and barley.
Between half and three-Iourtns
of the farm income originates
outside the state for Oregon s
si? million notato harvest, the
$5 million apple crop, sheep and
lambs, wool, turkeys, red clover
seed, carrots.and cauliflower.

Local News In Brief
Canned meats so associated with luncheon and dinner menus
provide variety and heartiness at breakfast too. For example, ever
popular corned beef hash may be topped with baked or poached
eggs. Pork sausage, canned in link, bulk and patty styles, makes a
fine team with plain or blueberry pancakes. And scrambled eggs
are the better for an addition of spicy deviled ham.
The 12-ounce loaf of luncheon meat, and the 12-ounce packs of
beef, veal and chopped ham may be sliced and pan-broiled as break
fast meats.
