diseases were expensive
not only due to the ini

State Not Involved
In Price Scandals
Salem WPll The state of
Oregon did not purchase
heavy equipment connected
with the price-fix scandal in
volving a number of major
electrical firms, Atty. Gen.
Robert Y. Thornton said Mon
day. For this reason, he said,
Oregon is not in a position to
file civil actions for treble
damages under federal anti
trust laws.
But he said public utility
districts and city-owned wat
er plants might find they
have a case. Thornton said the
equipment involved included
switching gears, transformers,
generators and the like all
heavy equipment.

Jets Enter New Stage With
Modern Streamlined Styling
Washington-llIPl) - Commer
cial aviation is entering the
second stage of the Jet Age
featured by the "rear look."
New jetliners now under
development have their en
gines attached to the rear of
the fuselage instead of in pods
suspended under the wings.
Rear engine jets are noth
ing new. The French-built
Caravelle, which has been in
operation for several years,
has such an arrangement. Bri
tain has six jet projects in
volving the rear-engine de
sign, And Boeing's new short
range jetliner, the 727, will
have rear engines.
The "rear look" will bring
even greater safety and relia
bility lo the Jcl Age. Among
its advantages:
-It permits a "cleaner,"

Guard Nation's
Missile Secrets
Vandenberg Air Force Base,
Calif. (UPII It was almost
like any other close order
drill. A sergeant barking or
ders, demanding and get
ting full attention, instant
reaction and uniform move
ment. Only the troops were dogs.
Six German shepherd dogs
trained by the Air Force
for sentry duty at this ad
vanced Missile Age base
were lined up beside their
handlers inside a screened
pen. On command from thc
sergeant they sat, stayed, heel
ed lo their handlers and lay
down.
Thc dogs were among 22
used at this missile base to
guard top secret areas. They
patrol only at night.
With their handlers they
team up one man lo one dog
the dogs are affectionate
and friendly.
With anybody else, they
become 80 pounds of concen
trated violence, capable of
killing even the largest man
if they are not pulled off,
"Once we've trained dogs,"
said Airman 2C Bill Joyce, 21,
Seattle, Wash., "they are nev
er returned to civilian life.
You can't rehabilitate them
to be pets."
Train Together
Dogs and handlers all
volunteers for the job train
together at an eight - week
course at Lackland Air Force
Base, Tex. Then they are as
signed to a home base where
the training continues.
"That eight-week course is
sort of like grade school," ex
plained Joyce. "Then high
school would be when we give
the dogs intermediate obedi
ence here.
"College is what you leach
your own dog on your own
time," Joyce added after pul
ling his dog, Venus, through
her repertoire of special tricks.
Venus would roll over, play
dead, walk on her back legs,
salute, shake hands, and even
ride piggyback on Joyce's
shoulders.
Moments before she had
ripped inlo another handler
protected by a 80-pound pad
ded suit for the exercise with
frightening fury.
Ma), James L. LaForce, In
charge of the dog training
program here, said that even
while on patrol, handlers keep
the dogs on a leash until they
want them to attack.
Although the dogs boilght
from private citizens for S1U0
$150 when about a year old
are trained to be vicious with
anyone else, they become
closely attached lo their nan-
more efficient wing. When en
gines are placed in wing
mounted pods, there is inevit
able interference with the
wing's lifting ability. A jet
wing has slats on its leading
edge to increase the lift ob
tained from the normal flaps.
An engineless wing means thc
leading edge slots can be con
tinuous instead of being inter
rupted to make room for the
pod structure. This is one rea
son why the Caravelle can op
erate from almost any airport
used by piston-engine planes.
Safety Bonus
The rear engine design
separates t lie engines from the
fuel tanks in the wings, an ob
vious safety bonus in the event
of a crash.
-There is less noise and vi
bration, which means not only
greater comfort tor passengers
but a reduction of structural
fatigue.'
-There is more efficiency at

creates potential trouble be
cause the engine pods are so
close lo the ground. .
The rear-engine design has
disadvantages, however, The
fuselage must be heavier. So
must tlic wing structure, be
cause wingmounled engines
incorporate a stress-alleviat
ing factor roughly comparable
lo the shock absorber on your
car. Their weight gives a wine
more flexibility or "give" to
absorb the strains and stresses

But most aeronautical engi
