Langley was the major research establish ment of former National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics from 1917 until 1958, when NACA became the nucleus of National Aero nautics and Space Administration. America's first man-in-space program, Project Mercury, was conceived at Langley. Located at Hampton, Va., the 770-acre cen ter has 50 major research facilities, plus shops and administrative buildings an investment of about $250 million. It has a personnel of over 4,000. Though only $45.1 million out of NASA's requested 1964 budget of $5.7 billion is sched uled for aeronautical research, Langley is car rying out an intensive program in this field. Major goal is the development of a supersonic commercial air transport (SCAT). One model, SCAT-15, is illustrated in first panel. With movable wings that can be swept back in flight, it would operate in the 2,000 m.p.h. range. As part of America's goal of reaching the moon, Langley is doing important work in piloting techniques for lunar vehicles. Second panel shows a 240-foot-high landing simulator which is designed to duplicate conditions of an actual landing on the moon. Langley scientists and engineers are also studying the problems and potentials of self erecting space stations. One of them under study is a 30-foot-diameter rubber doughnut which would inflate itself in space and support 3 to 10 men. Other work at Langley includes: Guidance and control of satellites and spacecraft. Orbital rendezvous and docking of spacecraft. Paragliders for bringing satel lites back to earth. Echo balloon communi cations satellite. Scout launching rocket. Project Fire (high-speed re-entry of space capsules into the atmosphere). Boost-glide and winged re-entry vehicles. Noise prob lems of large boosters. NEXT: Goddard, Satellite Factory Turn Your Problem Into A Compliment By ANN LANDERS , Dear Ann Landers: 1 must be a freak. There is no other ex planation for a person who has spent hundreds of dollars on dancing lessons and still can't dance. $2) My husband's I business makes it necessary for us to go places I where there is dancing. After 20 years of mar riage we have worked out some thing that looks like dancing but it adds up to nothing more than walking to music and avoiding stepping on each other. I am sunk when I try to dance with anyone else and this is my problem. How do 1 refuse with out looking like a snob? I am seen "dancing" with my husband so I can't say 1 don't dance. It is pure agony when 1 attempt to dance with a client who wants to be "nice" to the boss' wife. Please tell me what to do. OUT OF STEP Dear Out: If it is pure agony to dance with anyone other than your husband don't do it. When asked to dance Just lay, "Thank you but I'd rather til Mils one out and rhat with you. Do you mind?" It's an available escape hatch which may even be Inter preted as a compliment. Dear Ann Landers: I am 14 years old and my last year of school was the worst yet. I am a fairly good student but the problem is my hearing. I am not deaf but I have a 35 per cent hearing loss. The doctor says I don't need a hearing aid but he thinks it would help if I sat up front in school. 1 have asked my teachers for permission to sit up front but they resent it. They tell me they speak loudly enough to be heard anywhere in the room. When 1 asked one teacher at the begin ning of the school year to repeat herself she said I wasn't paying attention or I would have heard her the first time. I never asked again after that. I am having trouble with some of my friends, too. They all know- about my hearing problem but I still get digs like. "I don't chew my cabbage twice" and stuff like that. Please tell me what to do. If next year is like this last one I think I'll quit school MARCEL- LA i Not my real namel Dear Mareella: It's extremely difficult for me to believe teach ers are so unsympathetic. Either you've (ailed to explain adequate ly that you have a hearing prob lem, or you are using the handi cap as an excuse to goof off. Before school starts in the fall ask your doctor for a written note addressed to your teachers. As for your friends, there will always be Inconsiderate people in this world. Quitting school to avoid being hurt would be a mis. take and it would solve nothing. You've got to learn to roll with the punches, Honey. Dear Ann Landers: Our 20-year- old son was lucky and landed a good job close to home after he graduated from high school two years ago. 1 am happy to have him home but it is strictly his idea not mine. 1 do his laundry, fix him a hearty breakfast every morn' ing and he rarely misses supper with the family. Once in a while he buys something for the table. He has never spent more than $1) I've hinted that I could surely use a few dollars a week because there are four younger children and we are struggling to make ends meet. I once mentioned $5 a week would seem like a Warning Given On Insurance 'Fleecing' Through Mails CORVALL1S Oregon citizensltitizen is totally unprotected sincelcommerce and possibly postal log in the Bly District all roads except those north and west of Godow Springs are open; most are passable but there are soft spots on most unsurfaced roads.

"A growing number of such companies are promoting their in surance policies throughout the stale," according to (Jcne Han sen, president of the Oregon! State Association of Life Under writers. "The advertisment usually states that no agent will call and that by simply signing a return card, the citizen will receive the great est insurance bargains known to man. The truth is that these i companies could not send agents in Oregon if they wanted to since they have not met the minimum company standards to qualify for a permit to legally do business in Oregon. The loop-hole exists in the factl that such companies may organ ze in states where insurance laws are weak and then proceed to use the mails to do business in states such as Oregon which have set high standards to protect citizens." Hansen pointed out that thou sands of Oregon citizens apply for such insurance each year unaware that claim settlements arc olten virtually impossiDie 10 negotiate.

She is a leading figure in inter national society and was once rated as "the best dressed woman In the world." OSLUA president stated: "Prob lems arising from the solicitation of insurance by unlicensed or mail order" companies contin ue to plague insurance depart-! ments throughout the country. Oregon has not been spared in this regard. The difficulty the in surance department faces in this! problem is that the companies engaged in this type of activity are not licensed in Oregon and hence we have no jurisdiction over them. The National Association oil Insurance Commissioners has an active committee working on the problem. There is no simple solu tion because it involves interstate Air Officers Plan Meet because of mud-holes and early pring seeps on road treads. High trails are still under snow: others arc passable by horse but much wind-throw in lodgepole country. Regarding campgrounds. Mar- ster Spring is accessible from Paisley and ready for use: Camp bell Lake, inaccessible due to mud and snow, is still covered by ice: Deadhorse, same as Campbell Lake; Sandhill Crossing access blocked by mud and down tim ber; Lee Thomas accessible from Road 2913 by jeep only. Rains and snow melt have caused all district streams to be muddy and the quality of fishing has deteriorated from what it was two weeks ago. The Che waucan has been particularly poor due to high water. Fire dan ger is presently low because of continued rain. Weather is re ported "great for ducks." Increased moisture is producing a heavy vegetative cover on range types. Eventually this will cure and constitute "flashy" fuels with high rate of spread. Silver Lake District: The for est trunk road on the west side of Silver Creek from Silver Lake to Sycan Marsh is graded but some what dusty. The Benny Creek road on the east side of Silver Creek is graded and in good shape. The East Bay road from the Benny Crock road to the east The Silver Creek Marsh camp ground is open to picnicking and overnight camping; drinking wa ter available. Heavy weekend use reported. Fishing is reported very good at Thompson1 Reservoir; limits of rainbow trout averaging between 14 - 18 inches common. Moderate success reported for Silver Creek and the west fork of Silver Creek. Weath er has been cold with rain. Drews Valley District: Cotton wood Meadows road rough and rutted due to recent rain. (Do not travel when raining because road has no surfacing and is soft and muddy.) Cottonwood Creek closed because of high wa ter across road. Campgrounds arc open. Fishings at Cottonwood Mea dows Reservoir good for rainbow and Eastern Brook (9-12 inches). Perch good at Dog Lake; bass fishing will improve with warm er weather. -Weather, wet and raining.

"The main thing we want to warn Oregon residents of," the Oregon association leader c o n- eluded, "is the extreme danger of being lured by the 'something for nothing' come-ons promoted by unlicensed insurers. The re sults of such insurance purchases can be financially disastrous and heartbreaking."
