Dental Health Tips Listed (Continued from P.ge 2)
brush your teeth right afterwards or rinse your m 0 u t h with water_
Some foods are called "detergent" foods, and these are especially helpful to den t a I health_ These are the foods like raw carrots and c e I e r y sticks, raw vegetables and fruits that require thorough chewing_
As you chew, you force such foods over your teeth and soft tissues in a cleansing action. Your daily diet should contain ample amounts of detergent foods.
Avoid impacting foods that
tend to pack Into tooth fissures and grooves, cookies, crackers and candies, for instance. These are your teeth's worst enemies.
Nutrition Import.nt Good nutrition is especially
important in early childhood, when the teeth are still forming. Wise parents avoid serving sweet foods to children, substituting milk and unsweetened fruit juices and raw fruits for snacks.
A good diet can be interesting and tasty. We can eat well and still eat right. And we'll keep our teeth if we do.

Radar Gives Plane Low-Level Agility
Its name is the XR-45 Mul· timode Radar, and after six months of intensive ground and flight testing at NAF, this airborne radar system wit h microminiaturized circuits is the first of its kind in the Uuited States.
The r.d.r's functions tested out f.ilu .. f... through 200 operating hours .t NAF, of which 82 _re flight houra in a TFIOB iet .
According to Francis L. Guthleben, Aviation Ordnance Department electronics engin· eer and the projeet engineer, primary emphasis during the program was on "automatic terrain following" (ATF) and air·ta-ground ranging. The XR· 45 was tested also for its "terrain avoldance/ c 0 n t 0 u r mapping" and simultaneous operational modes.

Surplus Sale Soars In Volume, Attenclance
By 7 a.m. last Saturday crowds had started to gather for NOTS' first sale of government surplus property. By the time the day ended, an estimated three thousand people had come to Warehouse 14 to see what was going on.
FlIrniture proved to be the most popular commodity with technical books running a c los e second. Among single items included in the sale, big street lamp globes of g\ass or plastic intrigued the imagina· tion of many people. At $1.00 apiece, they were sold out ear· Iy in the day. Even the dis· play set up to show possible uses of the surplus headboards sold, books and all, to a single customer.
A festive air prevailed, with everyone good·natured about the long waiting line to get into the store and a waiting line to check out purchases at the cash register. So bus y were people in the Disposal Branch, that Supply Depart· ment Director Capt. P. W. Jeffrey and Material Officer
LT(jg) F. B. Fuller were en· listed to sack purchases for customers.

CHAPLAIN'S MESSAGE,-----,--.
Flag Demands Our Respect
CHAPLAIN EDWARD F. KANE
. How many times do you ask Divine Guidance upon our country and our leaders? How often do you ask a Supreme Being to smile upon our efforts to be big-brother to the world? How frequently do you beg God to bless the land that you love?
Or, if you happen not to believe in God or anything that sounds like "God," how often do you hope that all goes well for our country and its objectives? How frequently do you wish that our country will continue on its noble road to idealism?
In other words, believer or non-believer, how much do you think of your country and how often do you suit your words to action? Actions do speak louder than words!
This seeming tir.de resulted from some observations of our general conduct on the Station during the daily raising .nd lowering of our flag_ It's most dismaying to watch those who f.iI to stop during the ceremony, despite the national anthem which is being broadcast at that time. Drivers and pedestri.ns bliufully ignore the opportunity to show their citizenship.
Actions do speak louder than words! So, please, be anxious for the opportunity to stop in reverential awe when the flag is being saluted. Look for the opportunity, don't ignore It! Teach your children by your actions and, once In a while, bring them down specifically to watch the ceremony.
So. if you do pray, make sure your prayers reflect your actions. You can't ask God to bless America, if you don't show Him that you love and respect your country and its flag.
Your Dental Health By DR. JOSEPH G. CHUDZINSKI, Dent.1 OHicer
All of us have two sets of teeth. Too many of us will have three.
One of the factors causing us to lose our teeth prematurely is the food we eat.
Primitive man, who ate. coarse, fibrous foods and very few sweets, was seldom troubled hy tooth decay_ He often wore his teeth flat from the amount 0 f chewing his diet required, but decay was not one of his problems.
We moderns, with our easyto-eat foods and our taste for sugar-rich pastries and cakes, have laid ourselves open to a toothless future .
Studies show that there is a direct relationship between diet and tooth decay. There is also some relationship between diet and peridontal diseases. The peridontal tissues are the gums and other , upporting tis sues around the teeth.
A diet heavy in sugar and starches is a direct invitation to tooth decay, since bacteria in the mouth quickly t urn

Diet Is Essential
ac-
Further, a well-balanced diet is essential to dental health, since inadequate nutrition may decrease a person's resistance to peridontal disease.
The texture of foods is also important. Soft foods tend to impact between the teeth and around the gums - a choice spot for bacteria to work.
Persons with peridontal disease often curtail their diet by eliminating the coarse but nutritious foods they need; with tender or swollen gums these foods have become painful to chew.
A diet good for dental health must, first of all, be good for your general health.

Station Hunting Dates Outlined
By "POP" LOFINCK
Dates have been set for the open hunting program on the Base this year. Three weekends have been set aside-October 30-31, November 13-14, and November 27-28. The Coso-Maturango area will be open to hunters pending unforeseen range activity.
The basic purpose of this Base is, of course, weapons de· velopment and testing_ All else is secondary_ But the above dates are clear as 0 fnow.
Hunters will be allowed to take all species that are legal during this season - chukar, quail , cottontail and jackrabbit.
No weapons other than shotguns will be allowed on the Station. Shot shells only, no slu~s .
No motorcycles or scooters allowed. Only four-wheeled vehicles.
Entry will be at the Darwin Gate, which will be open from 6 a.m. Saturday through 5 p.m. on Sunday.
OVERNtGHT CAMPING PERMITTED Overnight camping on Saturday nights will be permitted
in the vicinity of .Junction Ranch or Bircham Springs. Make certain you have enough water and gasoline to last during your stay.
All hunters must depart the confines of the Station by 5 p.m. on Sunday, by the same gate you entered.
Hunters will be required to check in and check out and a permit, map and instructions will be issued at the point of entry.
The Navy will be responsible for ingress, egress and security and the Department of Fish and Game for enforcement of game regulations.
D. F . G. made a game reproduction survey in August of this year, of the Coso-Maturango area. Although they have trapped 6,614 chukars on the Station since 1954 for transplanting to other areas, where they could propagate and be hunted, the August survey seems to indicate there are more chukars, quail, and cottontails in this area than ever before.
So, with the abundance of game, there appears to be no reason for restricting the number of hunters this year.
FIRST OPENED IN 1963 The area was first opened to hunters in 1963. Over 1100
so called hunters came. They didn't take much game, because the majority didn't know how to hunt chukars and there was a snow storm just before that. Many seemed to think you could walk out and knock them over with a stick. U's not that easy. Chukars are hard to hit.
In the 1964 season the hunters did pretty well. There were not so many - seemingly only those returned from the previous year who knew how to hunt.
GOOD '65 SEASON PREDICTED This 1965 season should be very good. But getting your
limit takes know how, and you should have a retriever. One reason for the abundance . of game on the Station is
that the game has been protected by the Navy. Another reason for this year's increased game population is the rains. Rainfall in July was by far the highest on record, totaling 1.30 inches. The average is but 0.02 inches. So plenty of feed this year.
NAVY PROTECTS WILDLIFE U has been tlie continuing policy of the Department of the
Navy that all activities which contain suitable land or water al"eas shall have an active progressive program for the management of renewable natural resources and the conservation of wild life.

D raw i n g from a comparative giant among S tat ion teams In the opening game of the 1965-66 football season, NAF won a resounding fir s t victory from the 14-p 1 aye r NOTS squad on Kelly Fie 1 d Monday night.
From kickoff at 8 p.m. until the end of the first half, however, NOTS held off the Naval Air Flyboys with a 6-6 tie. In the second half with NOTS keeping up the fight to the tune of 21 points, NAF pulled out ahead with f i v e touchdowns complete with extra points.
H_ NAF Did It Quarterback Russell scored
the Flyboys' first TD on a 14-yard quarterback sneak in the game's first half.
Hug h e s, at left halfback slot; took the ball 18 yards after snagging a 10-yard pass from Russell for TD number two. Litchfield, right halfback made it three TDs on a 2~ yard go, and was followed by the quarterback once a g a i n with a 26-yard run around NOTS' left end.
Touchdowns five and six came for Goliath when Litchfield took a pass from Russell and carried it 18 yards, and when, in a spectacular performance, R u sse 11 outflanked NOTS' right side and went 23 yards to the goal.

Morris Dam Observes Twentieth Anniversary
NOTS Pasadena "Remember when ... ," was
the conversational gambit at the Morris Dam 20th Anni versary luncheon last F rid a y, Oct. 1. Ensuing discussions covered many eve n t s that had taken place during the past 20 years since ahout 80 percent of the original CalTech group made the transition to Civil Service in Octoher, 1945.
Group" he.ded by Dr. F. Lindvall, set to work in • on.room off ice of the Astro-PhysiCi Shop on the CalTech c.mpus.
Their work focused on the development of test equipment to solve ballistic and structural water - entry prohlems, and out of these studies came significant improvements in the MK 13.
VIRGINIA E. LIBBY - EXT. 638
The ESO sponsored Masque· rade Party which will be held Friday, Oct. 29, is taking on all the color of a Mad Hatter's Tea Party (without the tea, of course).
Rumor has it that several P802 people are coming as tor. pedoes. Interesting, but hard· Iy unique, as someone in P-8096 is trying to rent an 007 (J a m e s Bond) costume and personality.
The previous art i c.1 e mentioned that there , w.ould be dancing. This is true, but we don't want to give the idea that this party is for dancers only. There will be pienty of entertainment and fun things for non-dancers, too.
Remember that your friends from outside the NOTS family are welcome. So plan to join in on the mirth with hilarity befitting the occasion.
Bowline) Roundup By Ray Hanson
Team No. 1 (10 wins, 2 losses) now leads the NOTS Wednesday night bow lin g league, followed closely by the Hunees, whose 9·3 record puts them in an admirable position for overtaking Team No. 1.
Team No. 1 personnel are Mary Bologna, Barb Ring, Jan Reeves, Ron Preston, and Bill Alberts.
To give an idea of how closely the league is matched, the next five places (3rd through 7th) are occupied by 10 deadlocked teams. That's right! Five ties below second place.
High scores for the t h i r d week are as follows: team series, Team No. 11, 2931; team game, Quiet Five, 1066; men's series, Hal Byall, 661; women's series, JoAnn Roesener, 638; men's game, Kent Osborn, 242; women's game, Marty K irk, 226.
