State Employees Receive Awards Salem (UPD The Oregon State Employee Suggestion Awards Board has given $980 In prizes for a dozen ideas that Will save the state $13,304. ' Ernest Bloch of Salem, an assistant radio enslneer with the Forestry Department, won $500. He suggested that tele type and facsimile machines be assembled in a mobile van for on the spot fire weather forecasting. ' U.S. Weather officials are interested in the proposal, nd the van will be demon strated at fire weather con ference in Portland. The plan may save thou sands of dollars per year, the board said. State Policeman William Awes of Salem won $205 for a plan to process arrest re ports which eliminates un necessary typing. Outer awards ranged from $10 to $70.

THEY INVENT THINGS Dorothy Lamour Disproves Belief Of General Turned Business Man By DICK WEST Washington - (UPD - There was a squib on the news wire the other day which didn't exactly stop the presses but which at least gave me a pause. It contain ed a trench ant comment by retired Maj. Gen. John B. Me daris, former head of the Army Missile pro gram, who now serves as pres ident of the Lionel Corp. Medaris said he had discov ered since moving into the world of commerce that many business leaders "have very little or no knowledge of tech nical terms and are primarily interested in cocktail type parties and the sort." This, I said to myself, is a serious allegation and is some thing that I should look into at the earliest opportunity. I quite often talk to myself like that. The . earliest opportunity arose a couple of evenings later when R. Baruch and Co., a securities investment firm, gave a cocktail - type party here in honor of Dor othy Lamour. Let me say right at the out set that, man and boy, I have been an admirer of Dorothy Lamour, girl and woman, for nigh on to 25 years. The hours I spent in a mov ie theater watching her un dulate across the screen In a short sarong probably contrib uted in some measure to the condition of my blood pres sure today. It was not, however, the lingering vestiges of an old passion that caused me to drop in on the party. I went there solely to investigate the Me daris theory of executive in hibition. Miss Lamour Qualifies as a subject for such a study be cause she has become a busi nesswoman. A couple of years ago she incorporated herself and she now serves as chair man of her board. I found, Medaris to the con trary notwithstanding, that she Is well versed in techni cal terms and apparently re gards a cocktail-type party as only a business incidental. "When I'm presiding at board meetings," she told me, spearing a shrimp from a pass ing tray, "I become one of the boys." If so. It is a neat trick. At 48, Miss Lamour retains the basic form she displayed when she and Bing Crosby and Bob Hope were traveling down all those roads togeth er. As Dorothy Lamour, Inc., she Is engaged in the produc tion of a new line of cosmet ics bearing her name. She and her husband, William R. Howard, live near Baltimore, Md., where they invent things. Miss Lamour has invented a make-up mirror for near sighted women. Howard has applied for a patent on a canned white bread that will stay fresh for five years. In the unlikely event that her various business ventures should fail, Miss Lamour still would not be at the end of her resources. Hanging in closet at home are a couple of stand-by sarongs. - The reorganization, first major change in the Oregon Guard since April 1, 1959, was caused by an army decision to phase out present radar-controlled 75 mm. weapons.

Hintz said the reorganiza tion will give the Oregon Army Air Defense Command three battalions of automatic weapons. Field training is sched- 'ed for Aug. 12-26 at Camp Rilea near Gearhart. Young Connector Industry Now S3S0 Million Business A 9 Bechtold By HENRY J. BECHTOLD UPI Financial Editor New York-(UPD-Connectors are getting smaller all the time, but the industry they make ud is bounds. The connec tor industry is onlv nine f si 8JL H yea" old and l l already it is k !tr a $350 million rJsV -JSsssssssi business. And the leaders in the industry. without exception, p r oj e c t 1961 as the best year ever. These smaller but more ef ficient and powerful elec tronic components are called micro-miniature electronics. The demands of our space, missile and computer pro grams are such that there is a constant search for smaller size, lighter weight, higher temperature capability and increased reliability in all components. Key Items Connectors are the "make or break" points within any electronic circuit much the same as a plug to which an electric appliance is attached. Since literally thousands of them are required in every computer or rocket, any sav ings in the weight or size of a single connector is multi plied a thousand-fold in the completed equipment and has a profound effect on the final result. 1 Connectors always have been small-some as tiny as -inch The problem, how ever, has been to further re duce the size while increasing the efficiency and the amount of the electric load thp', the tiny component can carry. Continental Connector Co. has broken the size-barrier and now is marketing a micro miniature connector that can be scaled down to 'i-inch, but can cram 40 contact points into that limited area. This, the company explain ed, means that it can carry the electric lead of a compon ent four times its size with a minimum loss of power. The development of the new mlero-miniature connec tor is typical of the reason ! why this Industry is moving so quickly, according to Con tinental president Harry De jur. He added that there is no mystery as to why the con- j ncctor field is growing faster : than the electronics industry ! as a whole. He noted that most connector makers spend a vast amount of money on research and development, considerably more than com panies three and four times bigger. The industry's technical ef ficiency has permitted it to make substantial contribu tions to every important space and missile program in the country, Dejur emphasized. And, he declared, President Kennedy's emphasis on the very programs in which thu connector indust'y is involved, his request for increased budgets in these areas, leads to the projection of a much higher volume of sales in 19G1. However, he was quick to point out that the industry's future lies not only in the military, but also in civilian production. Private industry is using more computers, cal culntors. telephones, automcn fbilo radios and business ma chines than ever before-all requiring internal connectors.
