Airliner's Flight Recorder
Indicates Violent Stresses
Washington -HTB- The flight
recorder of the Northwest
Orient Airlines Jet which
crashed in the Florida Ever
glades last Tuesday indicates
the plane was subjected to
violent stresses severe enough
to cause structural failure, it
was lpnrneH today.
The stresses may have been
the result of storm turou
lence, although this still is in
the realm of speculation.
Sources close to the investi
gation of the crash, in which
tali 43 nhnard were killed, said
a preliminary recorder read
ing showed tins picture:
-The Roeina 720B ict reach
ed a maximum altitude of
ahont 19.400 feet when it en
countered what appeared to
be extreme turbulence.
Standard Soeed
-The indicated air speed at
this point was adout zsu or
255 knots (around 300 miles
per hour), which is standard
penetration 6pced for entering
turbulence in a jet.
-At this speed, the recorder
rrnwlpri out a reading of
negative "G" forces 3.5 times
that of gravity. Negative o
forces put a downward strain
on the wings, and 3.5 far ex

airplane.
-The high G forces Indica

seconds, and suddenly a nose

Teen-Age Dance Set
At Armory Friday
A teen-age dance sponsored
by the Mcdford park and rec
reation department has been
scheduled for Friday, Feb. 22,
at the Medford Armory, ac
cording to Director Robert L.
Haworth.
It will be the second in a
scries of dances sponsored by
the department for high
school students in this area.
Dancing will be held from
9 p.m. to midnight. Music will

per person and 50 cents for
couples.
are preliminary and subject
to continued analysis. They
also cautioned against any
premature interruption.
"At this point," one official
said, "all we have is evidence
of severe turbulence, abnorm
al stress forces and a high
speed dive. It's too soon to tell
whether turbulence caused a
structural break-up, whether
other factors might have been
involved, whether the dive
caused structural failure or
merely followed it."
Strongest Airliners
Airmen and engineers alike
would be stunned if it is deter
mined that the Northwest jet
was wrecked by storm turbu
lence. Airliners like the
Boeing 720 are regarded as
the strongest ever built.
"If it turns out to be turbu
lence," one pilot commented,
"it must have been the equiva
lent of a tornado. I just can't
believe it could happen to a
Jet."
Air Force Man's
Car Goes Into Lake
An Air Force man from
Klamath Fails reported to
state police last night he had
driven his car off the Green
Springs highway into Keene
creek reservoir.
State police, who did not
investigate the accident said
the driver, Pete Kulick,
Kingslcy Air Force base, ap
parently was not seriously
hurt.
Kulick telephoned state po
lice to tell them his car went
off the highway after cross
ing the bridge. The car is 20
feel out in the reservoir, and
will be removed today, the
Air Force man told state
police.

...for people in a Mercury
When you're pushing two tons ot auto

strain trying to keep on the straight and

features a good idea called the "Breeze

better, heat better, see better. ..and enjoy

If you've got a new car in the back of
your mind, wc hope you'll step forward
and give us a chance to demonstrate
how this ingenious new roollinc and

Overhaul of Boating Regulations
Wins Approval of House Commitee
Salem - fUPH - A major over
haul of state boating regula
tions drew approval Monday,
but bogged down over the
question of regulation of ma
rine toilets.
The House Planning and
Development committee ques
tioned whether the marine
board should "make rules and
regulations regarding' marine
toilets and their use consistent
with the prevention and con
trol of pollution of the waters
of this state."
Marine Board Director R.
F. Rittenhouse said the board
should make the rules because
it is in contact with boaters.
Lent Objects
Kenneth Speas of the State
Board of Health indicated he
would just as soon leave the
problem up to the marine
board.
But Rep. Berkeley Lent (D-
Marshal lakes Man
After Arraignment
Dewey Wayne Whiteley,
Madera, Calif., was taken to
Portland by the U. S. marshal
following his arraign m e n t
here before the U. S. Commis
sioner Frank J. Van Dyke on
a charge of violation of the
Dyer act (transporting a stolen
car across state lines).
Whiteley and two other
sailors from the U. S. Naval
Training center, San Diego,
were arrested by Oregon state
police last week after two
grocery stores in the area
notified officers that some sus
picious looking men were at
tempting to cash checks.
After the trio was arrested,
it was learned that the ve
hicle they were driving had
been stolen in San Diego,
Calif., and that all were away
without leave from the Navy.
The other two sailors, Rich
ard Dean Robertson, 868 Gil
man rd., Medford, and James
Russell Boyles, Topeka, Kan.,
were turned over to the U. S.
Navy officials Monday afternoon.
Port land) strongly opposed
granting "such broad rule
making power" to the marine
board.
He suggested the rules be
made a part of the legisla
tion. The committee suggested
Rittenhouse and Speas draft
an amendment and present it
to the committee next Mon
day. Other features of the pro
posed law met with approval.
It would change boat regis
tration procedures, extend li
censing to all motor boats,
and set speed laws near
ramps, docks, mooring and
swimming areas, and increase
registration fees.
Education Discussed
Dr. Roy Lieuallen, chancel
lor of higher education, told
an education subcommittee
"from outside the state we
sometimes look pretty good."
He showed a full-page article
from a Canadian newspaper
which lauded Oregon's higher
education system to empha
size his point.
Lieuallen outlined planning
and development programs
under way by higher educa
tion, and cited the need for
more work in this area.
Legislative Fiscal Officer
Kenneth Bragg explained that
the department was asking
$483,000 for this work, com
pared to $387,000 now being
spent.
Lieuallen said as a matter
of "system policy" outside
work by professors was not
objected to so long as it did
not interfere with regular job
requirements.
He said "consultant work"
by professors was a wide
spread practice that helped
keep instructors in touch with
practical business operations.
In other business, spokes
men for bus lines told the
Senate Highways Committee
they would bear an unfair
share of the burden under the
Governor's proposal to adjust
weight-mile taxes for heavy
vehicles.
Minimum standards for
practicing as a psychologist
in Oregon were urged at a
meeting of the Senate Com
mittee on Health and Welfare.

Sides Chosen for
Battle of Budget
In California
Sacramento IUFI The an
nual battle of the budget
opened today in California's
legislature.
Right away, an opening
shot was propelled at plans
for a state withholding tax
backed by Democratic Gov.
Edmund G. Brown.
"It is the least desirable of
the proposals he has made,'
said legislative analyst A.
Alan Post, the legislature's
watchdog on state spending.
But he hastened to say that
in his annual review of the
governor's $3 2 billion spend
ing program Post had taken
no formal recommendation
one way or the other on with
holding. Post made his comments
before Ihe nssrmhlv Wavi
I and Means committee, which
met to organize for its an
nual review of the budget.
Chairman Robert W. Crown
announced plans for subcom
mittee meetings to make an
ilem by-item review of the
huge spending plan.
Another Potihot
A second potshot was taken
at the administration by
Assemblyman Charles Conrad
(R-Shrrnian Onksl. the lower
chamber's minority floor
leader.
"The thing that bothers me
is that a tax increase is in
! evitable in this program and
I the administration is covering
up the fact that they're get
ting by for two years on
windfalls." said Conrad.
He backed this allegation
by pointing lo a slatement by
Post in his 1,0 1 0-page budget
analysis that the pay-as-you-go
income tax would give the
stale a "one-time" pickup of
about $131 million in fiscal
1SS4-6J and that increased
state revenue could be ex
pected from Long Beach oil
l fields.
