European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - June 17, 1968, Darmstadt, Hesse Page 6 the stars and stripes Arch rivals gird for suspense filled by Dick West Washington up engineering students All Over the country presumably Are Rushing to the drawing boards to prepare their entries for a new design contest sponsored by a brassiere company feels that in View of the Complex Structure of brassieres the application of engineering concepts May Well make a significant contribution to improvements in so it is offering prizes up to $500 forthe Best blueprints. I Don t know much about engineering but it seems to me that everything a Bra designer might need to know has already been discovered by Bridge de signers. Bridge designers work primarily wit two engineering principles known As loadings and these principles including the so called coefficient of rigidity calculated by an Engineer named d. B. Steinman could easily be applied to Are four Basic types of Bridges the simple girder the cantilever the Arch and the bras Sieres also come in these four who has Ever seen the top of a Bikini suit knows what a simple girder is. The suspension Bra is equally familiar. The cantilever is strapless Bra and of course All bras have two article that i read on Bridge construction says that one of the main a. Is achieving i imagine that brassieres also need aerodynamic article says this can be achieved in Bridges by opening the Structure tothe wind wherever it has been my observation that Bra designer already Are doing that to a Large ways of achieving aerodynamic stability include employing lattice stiffening trusses and Cross girders. Employing upper and lower later sys tems in the deck. Employing diag onal Cable stays from the towers anchoring Hie main cables to the deck at the Center of the a Layman like myself can read ily see How those engineering concepts be applied to jets sep us .

Up Nav Secretary Paul r. Ignatius said saturday that safety features incorporated into the new nuclear attack submarine Seahorse make it a completely certified sub Navy s top civilian said while we mourn the loss of the scorpion s Gallant Crew the sea horse will profit from the Pioneer ing efforts of her illustrious detection systems nuclear propulsion plants fire control equipment weapons All these Seahorse attributes have been perfected in the Fleet by a Roll Call of famous nuclear Seahorse was launched in Gro ton where the keel of the first nuclear submarine Nautilus waylaid 16 years ago. The Secre tary s wife Nancy w e i s e Ignatius christened the new sub. The Navy now has 73 nuclear subs. Ignatius said since the Nautilus radioed the famous message under Way on nuclear Power in1955, the Navy s nuclear subs have sailed More than 10 million Miles and completed More than 500 , he said the Crews of submarines Are made up of volunteers. Seahorse is a Sturgeon class sub displaying 4,200 tons and is 292 feet Long. She carries a Crew of 12 officers and 95 men. Cmdr. George t. Harper or. Of Hoboken n.j., is the ship s prospective skipper. Stamp sought to Honor late governor of Ala. Mobile Ala. A p. Brewer has asked postmaster general Marvin Watson to Issue a commemorative postal stamp in Honor of Chelate gov. Lurleen b. Wallace. Brewer said his request has been forwarded to the citizens stamp advisory com Mittee and is currently on the Agenda for consideration. Look no cavities Lupa the whale has her Teeth brushed by keeper Pedro Ponciano at the Coney Island aquarium in new York. The killer whale has Learned that if she puts up with to brushing Shell get the fish. A killer whole pays visit to Denim new York a Lupa problem was obvious when she smiled Brownish stains on harrows of Teeth. But Lupa is an 18-foot killer whale so the Solu Tion was not simply changing a dentifrice. Pedro Ponciano a keeper atthe Coney Island aquarium had the answer a Good Lupa is Friendly at least with officials were concerned about the tobacco like stains on the Teeth of the other Wise healthy creature. So the proceeded with the brushing project despite the obvious difficulties. Ponciano who admits his wife thinks i am crazy prepared by gathering a two foot tooth Brush normally used for Adver Tising in drug store windows Anda Basket of half Pound Macker he took up a poolside Perch and with the Brush in on hand he slapped the water with a Mackerel held in the 5,200-Pound Lupa swam up rolled on her Side and opened her Mouth. P o n c i a n o quickly began Rushing the pointed Teeth which Are spaced so they mesh. In the Ocean such whales routinely dismember 100-Pound , who was flown Here from Seattle last fall snapped her jaws on the Toothbrush then opened them to take the Mack Erel and the brushing continued. I feel we have become friends Ponciano said when the Job was done. The whale likes my attention and will Roll Over like a clog to have in scratch her stomach. She seems to have very gentle for an animal such a fearsome reputation in said.
