MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON TUESDAY, MARCH 19. 1963 Aviation Safety Declared in Danger of Doing 'Over-Researchei By ROBERT J. SERLING UPI Aviation Editor Washington - WD - A vet eran airline captain told the Federal Aviation agency re cently that air safety is in great danger of being "over researched." The warning came from Capt. Robert N. Buck of Trans World Airlines in a spcciul report prepared at FAA's re quest. FAA Administrator Na jeeb E. Halaby assigned Buck the task of studying the prob lem of bad weather operations at civil airports. There have been four fatal crashes since November in volving landings under re stricted visibility conditions. Buck, who spent 30 days I inspecting and studying FAA's i research and airport facilities, urged the appointment of u "project manager" to prod perfection of an all-weather landing system one that would enable pilots to land even under zero-zero conditions. He praised FAA's research in this area and said that not enough people including pi lots appreciate or understand "the talents and devotion" of the agency's personnel. But Buck also told Halaby that development of a practical blind landing system has been delayed unnecessarily by a tendency to wait for newer devices. "There is great risk of this program being over-researched," Buck said, "and the sense of time lost by continually adding techniques and ideas to the hopper. It is obvious that the technical ability to do the job is at hand or nearly so." The pilot said that many promising techniques keep se ducing researchers into post poning decisions on a final system. "If each new thought is added to the program and started down the research and development road, we could be 'forever' and never get the job done," Buck added. 'All.

By ZAN STARK Salem - IUPII - The publica tion, "Understanding the Na ture of Communism," being considered by the Stale Board of Education, lists specific ob jectives for the course. The six - week alternate course for high school seniors is designed to give the stu dent a better understanding of communism so he will be better able to appreciate the advantages of a free society. The specific objectives, the handbook advises teaches, are to make the student un derstand: - Communist party mem bers are committed to the dogma of the inevitability of world communism. - Soviet economic power constitules a major challenge to democracy that may be more decisive than military or political power. - The USSR has a planned economy wherein central eco nomic planning coordinates and controls the total re sources of the nation and utilizes them in ways deter mined by the party leader ship for benefit of the slate. - Communists deny the ex istence of God and believe that man exists without a creator and without divine assistance. - Communsim and Commu nists exert tremendous influ ence throughout large areas, and communism appeals to large parts of the underpriv ileged and underdeveloped population because it prom ises immediate improvement. Membership Restricted - Communist party mem bership is restricted to a well trained, thoroughly indoc trinatcd, and dedicated elite - In a communist nation the party is the only legal polili cal organization and, as it all totalitarian systems, the individual is subordinate to the state. -Marxian communism grew out of - or developed because of - conditions existing in the early stages of the indus trialization of Europe. - It is necessary to distin guish between communism in theory and communism in practice. - The Russian people are not necessarily discontented and likely to overthrow the Communist regime. - Russian education has a technical emphasis, is govern ment subsidized, and students are channeled into fields that serve the needs of the state. Classiest Society - Education is used as a weapon for strengthening the Soviet state and building a classless society. - Critical attitudes and free inquiry are forbidden in a communist state. - Communists seize power through use of such tactics as infiltration, propaganda, utili zation of existing discontent, manipulation of organizations including the UN. formation of fake disarmament confer ences and peace front organi z a t i o n s. manipulation of trade, and intensification of political, racial, and other differences. - Communist governments exist by executive fiat; the legislature and judiciary have nominal power. - There arc a variety of communist ideas about meth ods and timing of the spread of communism throughout the world - e g: Russian, Chinese.

"These are the some limits today. We have jumped in speed during those 26 years from 170 miles per hour to 600, increased our range from 700 miles to more than 5,000, swelled passenger capacity from 14 to 140, but we have not gained one inch toward all-weather flying!" Buck acknowledged that the airlines last year complet ed more than 600,000 instru ment approaches safely. But he emphasized that the acci dent potential while landing in bad weather Is too large. Buck said his study con vinced him that there are no "unusual, different or badly neglected" bad weather prob lems but rather a general fail ure to use solutions already on hand. He said, for example, KAA's research center has come up with excellent ad vances in runway lighting but that "the task now is to get the equipment installed where it will do the most good." ; Survey Recommended j The veteran captain also recommended a nationwide : survey of all the civil air I ports to determine specific shortcomings begging for ear ly correction in such areas as lighting needs, inadequate runway lengths, obstructions and electronic landing aids. Buck said the survey team should include active airlina pilots, representatives from the carriers themselves and private pilots. He urged Hala by not onlv to establish surli a group, but keep it In bein? lor constant monitoring it the airport problem.

(Especially the Impala's, with its adjustable new Comfortilt steering wheel.) And the charm lasts all year round. Match that, old-time tonics! In fact, match that, anybody! Front bucket seats are a great start, but Super Sports also feature plush all-vinyl interiors, special interior-exterior trim in tasteful touches, and a veritable feast of goodies we call performance options. A modest enough phrase to describe tailored- to-your-taste-action, from brisk to utterly overwhelm ing. Chevrolet and Chevy II Super Sports invite adventure in convertible or coupe form.

That same Super Sport zing applies to the Corvair Monza Spyder, very hreezy with us air-cooled 150-horsepower rear mounted engine, 4-speed shift and an outlook made for green country lanes. Ditto for the new Corvette Sting Hay, a magnificent thoroughbred among pureblood sports cars with not a single sacrifice in comfort. Both Spyder and Sting Ray come in coune or convertible styles. All Chevrolet Super Sports are like spring days you've got to get out in them to savor them. So catch yourself a passing zephyr and waft on down to your Chevrolet showroom.
