no prediction about the pos
sibility of a recurrence of the
cancer.

Portland - IUPD - Passenger
airliners capable of going 2000
miles an hour will be avail
able by 1965, an aviation en
gineer said Thursday.
Robert A. Bailey, chief en
gineer for Lockheed Aircraft
Corp., further predicted that
airlines will be able to finance
the supersonic airliners by
1963.
He spoke to the Airport
Operators Council which
closed its annual convention
here. ,
"Our studies show that
more airline seats will be
needed by 1962 and that fi
nancing can be accomplished
by 1963," he said. "The air
lines may not desire to re-
equip this early, but it takes
only one airline order for a
supersonic jetliner and they
will all come around."
He said the sonic boom
problem would be serious but
that it would only come as a
roll of thunder since super
sonic airliners would fly over
65,000 feet high. .
