MEDFORD Tribune Pages 1 to 6 MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1958 2nd SECTION Camp Adair Will Offer Push-Button Defense of Northwest Against Enemy Reorganization Plan Supported Corvallis (IP) The Army base where thousands of soldiers once trained 'for World War II duty soon will be the center of operations for less than 1,000 persons who will be able to wage push button warfare against any enemy force along Oregon's perimeter. Camp Adair, seven miles north of Corvallis, once the home of four mighty infantry divisions already is being giv en the eyes and ears to detect the approach of enemy air craft or missies Soon it will be armed with jet-propelled stingers to destroy the enemy even before he reaches the northwest shores of the Uni ted States. The eyes and ears, (SAGE semi-automatic ground environment),- are . already un der construction. The stingers, Bomarc missies, have been recommended by the Air Force to be based at Adair. Work Progressing Rapidly SAGE.a $9 million air de fense project, is rapidly ris ing on the ground formerly occupied by the hospital unit of Camp Adair. The massive, windowless, concrete com munications building is Hear ing completion except for the installation of electronic equipment. ' The powerhouse that will supply energy for the opera tion is almost ready. Con tracts for construction of sup port facilities, including two double - decked dormitories, Board of Control Calls For Bids on Dormitory Salem (TO The State Board of Control has ap proved calling for bids Wednesday on a $483,000, 70 bed dormitory for girls at Hillcrest school here.

Coquille, Bandon Strike Approved Coquille (IP) Members of the AFL-CIO Plywood, Lum ber and Sawmill union, local 2784 here, voted Tuesday to strike at the Coquille and Bandon plants of the Coquille Plywood company. Union spokesman Max Swerling said the strike vote was 205 for and 74 against. . The Coquille plant was idled Monday when pickets appeared from the Bandon operation. The union contend ed the company hired new employees at Coquille while union members at Bandon who were out of work had seniority rights. Some 400 workers were in volved in the walkout at the Coquille plant. The company had question ed the legality of pickets at Coquille before the union of ficially voted to strike . Tues day afternoon. officers quarters, and such utilities as a sewage treat ment plant, water mains and roads, have been let to build ers the past few weeks by Army Engineers. Bids will be opened soon on the construction of some 150 houses to be occupied by mar ried personnel stationed at the base. Other personnel will live in or near the sur rounding cities of Corvallis, Albany, Salem, Indepen dence and Monmouth. Those communities are competing to entice as many as possible their way. Latest announcement of the Air Force that it has recom mended that a Bomarc missle base be established at Adair indicates the area will be the defense center of the state. Bomarc Funds Hoped For The Bomarc is a black war bird 47 feet long, with 18 foot wings and weighing seven-and-a-half tons.' It is virtually an unmanned air plane and the new models are reported able to reach out 400 miles at altitudes in ex cess of 60,000 feet. They can be fired in salvo, each homing on a specific target. While the S10 million proj ect is still in the talking stage, officials feel certain funds for construction of the base will be appropriated by next year. . Corvallis and Albany, both about seven miles from Adair, have been anticipating the move for many months, al though the exa'ct nature was n't certain until recently. Both communities have been preparing for the possibility and stand ready to provide assistance to the military in finding housing for both Air Force and civiliaVi employees needed at SAGE and the mis sle base. ' The influx of the military and civilian is expected " to bring a new boom to housing. Corvallis, with Oregon State College constantly expanding, has had little slowdown due to the recent recession.
