(UPI) Two Pennsylvania State Uni versity scientists apparently have solved a weighty prob lem accurate measurement of the skeletal weight of liv ing human beings. Dr. Harold Schaer and Dr. Paul T. Baker began the proj ect more than two years ago. They now believe that they can measure accurately the skeletal weight of human be ings, something never before accomplished. The two" scientists foresee the accurate determination of skeletal weight as of value in future studies of health and disease. They also believe it may shed new light on genet ic factors as well as on hu man growth and the biologi cal knowledge of man. The scientists use a unique bone density computer to de termine the mineral content of bones. This ,is done by studying transparency of bone images on X-ray film. The weight of a bone is de termined primarily by its to tal mineral content. Authro pologists have learned that the weight of the human skel eton is well correlated with the weight of the femur and humerous bones, located in the upper leg and arm. The Penn State researchers plan to X-ray cadavers at a medical school before and aft er dissection, then reduce a corrective factor for the soft tissues. They will also X-ray 100 living persons and apply this new information in de termining their skeletal weight. Drs. Baker and Schraer hope to standardize this tech nique so that it can be used as a tool in future biological and medical research and in their own density studes. Medford Youth Gets OSC Scholarship Corvallis Karl Douglas Cummings of 1900 Cherry LHeights, Medford, has been named winner of a $200 schol arship in engineering for 1958-59 at Oregon State col lege. A 1957 graduate of Med ford High school, Cummings will be a sophomore next year at OSC. His parents are Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Cummings. Cummings was selected to receive the $200 study grant given annually by Longview Fibre company to a student in chemical or machanical en gineering at the college. Cummings has made an outstanding scholastic record and has been active in music department programs along with his work in the . school of engineering.

To day's story is by Stuart G. Tipton, president of the Air Transport As sociation representing U.S. sched uled airlines. By STUART G. TIPTON Written for UPI Washington (UPI) Air line safety has improved markedly and consistently over the years. Today's statistics show you are better than 13 times safer aboard a domestic scheduled airliner than you are driving your own car. Safety is our primary con cern. We would like, of course, to achieve all these objectives to their fullest. But preoccupation with safety in fluences every aspect of air line operations. Our safety efforts are in tensive and expensive. They account for a substantial share of our capital invest ment and operating costs.

Flight and ground procedures are exacting. The civil jet age will cul minate years of research and study, planning and testing. Never before in airline his tory has greater effort gone into the introduction of a new type of aircraft. Modernization a Necessity In this stage of aviation de velopment, modernization of the nation's airways system holds the greatest promise for advancing flight safety. This system must be streamlined (1) to increase substanially the capacity and efficiency of our air navigation and traffic control system and (2) to ex pand its coverage to bring more flight activity under its protective control. What is being done? A great deal is being done right now; even more will be done in the months ahead.

Additional ground radio navigational aids are being activated in increasing num bers. The first significant pro gram with civil long-range radar for visual observation of en route traffic begins this summer. Research Makes Contribution Intensive research and experimentation is being con ducted with electronic devices for automatic aircraft identi fication, data processing, and display of flight information to relieve traffic controllers of much paperwork and give them more freedom for decision-making. Encouraging progress has been made in the develop ment of a proximity warning indicator (PWI) to advise a pilot of aircraft in his imme diate vicinity. A PWI system will be flight - tested this month. During the past year, the airlines have instituted a pro gram whereby they voluntari ly place themselves under the protection of air traffic con trol above certain altitudes at all times throughout the United States regardless of weather. Under the guidance of Con gress and led by agencies of the government, the Airways Modernization Program adds up to one of the most sweep ing enterprises ever under taken by U. S. aviation. But this high-priority proj ect, the success of which is so dependent upon maximum co operation and coordination, clearly demonstrates the need for early creation of a single federal agency that will uni fy the widespread aviation authority that is now divided among many government agencies. 8 FOR 1 00 13 1 Quart 12-oz.

Area Students fo Attend JESSI Corvallis Four high school students from Medford and two from Phoenix have been selected to attend the third annual Junior Engineers and Scientists Summer institute, June 15 to 28, at Oregon State college. They are Robert Allen, Keith Harrison, John Wayne Hoffbuhr and Robert Lee Steele of Medford. Listed from Phoenix are Douglas S. James and Eldon Mitchell. The program is designed to give high school sophomores, juniors and seniors a concen trated orientation on careers and study programs in engi neering and science. Some 250 boys will participate this year. Course work covers all phases of engineering and mathematics, physics, chem istry, zoology, geology, "bac teriology, botany and astron omy. Classes are taught by Oregon State college profes sors. Night classes feature discussions by industrial representatives. Reed City, Mich.
