Thoughtful Gift
Army reserves of second
battalion, 414th regiment.
104th Division (Trng), com
posed of men from Jackson,
Josephine and Klamath coun
ties, will attend summer
camp at Camp Roberts, Calif.,
from July 21 to Aug. 5, ac
cording to Lt. Col. John F.
Rush, commanding officer.
The second battalion is com
posed of Company E, com
manded by First Lt. Dean
Ruffner, Medford; Company
F, under Capt. Theodore Mc-
Danirl. Medford; Company
G, under Capt. Eldon Everton,
Grants Pass; Company H.
Klamath Falls, comanded by
Capt. Jack Moebius, and 11 H
Company commanded by
Capt. James D. Straus, Med
ford. Practical Experience
During the two weeks en
campment, the 104th division
will gain practical experience
in the type of work the unit
'would do if activated that
j of operating a post where ;
' trainees receive their first six '
, months of basic training, j
Again this summer members
of the second battalion will j
give instruction to regular
I army basic trainees from Ft. !
' Ord, Calif. The personnel
have been preparing and re
hearsing the instruction pro-
i gram during recent months.
I The 414th regiment will be
under the command of Lt.
Col. Thomas P. Bays, who
has succeeded Col. Edwin B
Nelson, who was transferred
to Florida.
At last year's encampment
in California, the 414th regi
ment scored 118 superior rat
ings in all competitve drills.
Its closest competitor scored
28. The second battalion
scored more superiors in one
day than one entire regiment
i scored in the two weeks train
ing cycle.

Continuity Act
Dropped From Plans
Salem - (UPIl - The continu
ity of government amendment
adopted by the voters in 1960
has been dropped from a pro
posed new state convention.
The constitutional revision
commission indicated it felt
the provision's worth is ques
tionable. The amendment requires
state and local officials to
name their successors, who
would take over if the regular
officials were lost in a disaster.

OSU Scientists
To Study Fuels
For Toxic Action
Corvallis Rocket fuels
of the type used to launch
the spacecrafts piloted by As
tronauts Glenn and Carpen
ter will be studied for their
poisonous effects by Oregon
Slate university scientists.
Dr. Chih H. Wang, OSU
professor of chemistry in
charge of the project to inves
tigate the toxic action of three
rocket fuels, said OSU sci
entists were awarded the one
year $95,000 U. S. Army con
tract because they will tag
the chemicals with radioisotopes.
Fuels Are Traced
Using the radioisotopes,
small amounts of the rocket
fuels can be traced through
the bodies of lower species
of animals, such as rats, or
other organisms.
Rocket fuels under study
will be hydrazine, 1,1-dimcth-ylhydrazine
(known as UD
Mll) and pentaborane-9. Pen-taborane-9
poses special re
search problems. Dr. Wang
noted, because it catches
afire as soon as it is exposed
to the air.
As an end result, scientists
of the OSU Science Research
institute aim to find an anti
dote to overcome the poison
ous effect of the rocket fuels.
Rocket fuels affect the nerv
ous system; but the "why"
and "how" is not known, Dr.
Wang said.
To handle the sensitive
fuels, a special laboratory
and equipment were construc
ted in the physics-chemistry
building on campus. One
piece of equipment is an 18
x 30 inch exposure chamber
where minute quantities of
the chemicals may be safely
used.
Expensive Material
Dr. Wang reported it will
cost S4.000 to obtain one
gram of tritium-labelled pen
laborane necessary for exper-
' imentation.
i Dr. R. S. McCutcheon. pro-
fessor of pharmacology, is al
j ternate principal investigator
I of the project. Assisting will
I be Dr. D. J. Reed, assistant
! p r o f e f sor. radiochemistry;
and Dr. Prank Dost, pharma
cologist. Dr. T. H. Parsons,
associate professor of chemis
try and boron chemist, will
serve as consultant.
filtration courses the train
ing will go on to midnight
or later.
The second battalion was
nosed out last year by three
tenths of a point by the first
battalion, 414th regiment of
Corvallis, as the outstanding
battalion at the huge camp.
Colonel Rush stated, "The
first battalion has won for
the last time and it will be
the second battalion that will
spearhead the 414th regiment
all the way this year. This is
going to be our year."
