Public Unveiling of XB70 Airplane
Big Headache for Defense Department
Washinaton--The XB70,
one of the most controversial
and revolutionary aircraft
ever built, is scheduled to
roll off a Falmdale, caw.,
assembly plant in August or
September, and the Penta
gon is in a dilemma about
how to handle this major
news event,
Years in construction and
the source of continuous trie
tion within and between the
Executive branch and Corv
Kress, the XB70 is the expert
mental plane which the Air
Force had hoped to develop
into a reconnaissance and
missile-armed strike craft
called RS70.
. What do you do when you
publicly unveil a Jet aircraft
which is tne tasiesi u.uuu
mph), hlghest-flying (70,000
feet-plus) and heaviest (more
than 850,000 pounds) there
ever was, but which you do
hot intend to put into pro
duction? How do you handle
the roll-out ceremony, a tr
ditional milestone with new
planes, and what do you say
to the public about the re
markable machine being dis
played?
Solution Sought
These are questions the De.
tense Department, in the per
son of Assistant Secretary Ar
thur Sylvester, and the Air
Force are debating and seek
ing to resolve.
r Sylvester gave assurance,
-in answer to questions, that
the rollout date will be an
nounced In advance and the
press will be present to cover
the event. But somehow an
effort will be made to play
the whole thing in low key. ,
7, No amount of Defense De
partment crepe hanging, how
ever, will change the fact that
the XB70 is a fantastic flying
machine In its own right, em
bodying radical advances In
technology and manufactur
ing processes, and certain to
further the aeronautical art.
There never has been any
thing like the XB70, once
.called a manned missile.
No Squadron Ser rice
No amount of Air Force and
company hooplan at the un
veiling, on the other hand,
will alter the fact that this
particular airplar.a ran afoul
of the missile age and la not
destined for squadron service,
however much' is contributes
to future aviation develop
ment, both military and commercial.
No amount of the govern
ment's wrestling with Its prob
lems of managing the XB70
roll-out will influence the fact
that there will be large public
University Business
Manager Appointed
Eugene (UPD Appointment
of Walter N. McLaughlin as
business manager of Univer
sity of Oregon was announced
Saturday by President Arthur
S. Flcmming.
The appointment is subject
to confirmation by the Oregon
State Board of Higher Educa
tion. McLaughlin's appointment
came after the board changed
the title held by J. Orville
Lindstrom from business man
ager to director of fiscal af
fairs. McLaughlin has been as
sistant business manager at
the university since 19S4.
HOLIDAY CLAIMS IS
Seattle - (WD - Accidents
claimed at least IS lives in
Washington during the Fourth
of July holiday.
interest In the event and the
press will expect to be out in
full force to cover it.
At a cost now expected to
exceed $1.3 billion, North
American Aviation, Inc., as
prime contractor, is building
three XB70 models. The first
was slated to fly last Decem
ber but ran into technical
problems that have delayed
its roll-out at Palmdale until
late this summer and its first
flight until October or November.
Technical Problems
Technical difficulties are
the rule, not the exception, in
advanced new aircraft, all the
more so with one that makes
such strides as the high alloy
stainless steel XB70,
The specific problem In this
case was a leak of pressurized
nitrogen gas, used in the tri
angle shaped wing to cool fuel
while hiking along at three
times the speed of sound. The
company and the Air Force
believe that the problem has
been fixed, after painstaking
examination of the wing con
struction and nitrogen gas
piping,
Their present expectation is
to roll-out the XB70 in Aug
ust or September and start ex
tensive ground tests at the
desert center at Palmdale,
Then, if all goes well, the
behemoth should take to the
air in the late fall for a two-
to-three hour flight, alighting
at Edwards Air Force Base
Calif., the testing area for all
America's advanced military
aircraft,

PP&L Engineer
Urges Deletion
Of South 9 Miles
North Bcnd-OIPD-Six U. S
senators heard arguments
Saturday on why the bounda
rles of the proposed Oregon
Dunes National Seashore
should be different from those
set in the Dunes bill intro
duced by Sen. Maurine Neu
berger (D-Ore.).
The six, members of the
Senate Public Lands Subcom
mittee, toured the proposed
park area from Coos Bay to
Florence.
George Beard, Portland,
manager of engineering for
Pacific Power and Light co.,
told the group that the south
ernmost nine miles should be
excluded from the proposed
park because steps have al
ready been taken to develop a
rich supply of fresh water for
industrial purposes.
Bard spoke when they stop
ped at one of the six wells
supplying 1V4 million gallons
of water a day to a paper
plant of the Menasha Corp.
"The Dunes water re
source," Beard said, must be
operated as a unit to protect
it from sea encroachment.
Under proper operation this
source will be good for . 30
million gallons of water a
day."
64 Wells Needed
He said that type of de
velopment would require a
string of 64 wells, each a
distance of 2,000 feet from
the sea. He said drilling the
wells would not damage the
recreation potential of the
area, but pointed out that the
first objective of a National
Park is recreation.
"That," he said, "is the op
posite of industrial development."
Rep. Robert Duncan CD-
Ore.) was along on the trip.
He has introduced a bill
which would set the park's
southern boundary at Ten
Mile creek, eliminating the
area PP&L wants excluded.
It also would take much less
private property, particularly
east of U.S. Highway 101.
J. J. Geaney, chairman of
the Coos County Board of
Commissioners, told the sena
tors he favors continuation of
the supply of water for the
Menasha Corp., but he is
afraid further development by
PP&L would damage recrea
tion values.
Crown Zellerbach Protests
John M. Fulton, Portland,
corporate representative for
Crown-Zellerbach Corp., urg
ed senators to prevent the
park from spreading east of
the highway. He said the Neu
berger proposal takes almost
25 per cent of the corpora
tion's Tahkenitch Lake Tree
Farm.
The group also heard from
Wilbur Tenyik, who operates
the Wave Beach Grass Nurs
ery at Florence. He told the
senators how grass is used to
stabilize the dunes.
The senators gave little in
dication of their sentiment
for the project. They left
Portland Sunday morning to
inspect other public land in
the West.
In the group were Sens. Al
an Bible (D-Nev.) Frank Moss
(D-Utah), Ernest Grucnlng (D
Alaska), Quentin Burdick (D
N.D.), Len Jordan (R-Idaho)
and Milward Simpson (R-Wyo.).
