DEAR ADMIRAL HYMAN G. RICKOVER,
H father of nuclear submarines and
developer of the first commercial nuclear
power plant in America, Is a restless
intellect whose Super-energy frequently
gets him in trouble.
The Navy was so fed up with his
individualiSm, it tried to retire him few
years ago rather than promote him.
There were indications, until a few
weeks ago, that he was going to have
similar difficulty in obtaining the third star
of q vice admiral But admiring land in
fiuentiaD Congressman put heavy pressure
on the Navy, and Secretary Thomas s.
Gates, jr., told newSmen he was certain a
way would be found to promote Admiral
Rickover.
The admiral of course, would like the
promotion. But more important to him is
a clear road SO that he can get on with his
job, combination military civilian effort
to develop the benefits of atomic power.
Admiral Rickover recently has taken
on a new challenge and is on his way to
making another class of enemies: The
professional educators who he charges, are
turning out an inferior product
Even the personalities he sandpapers,
however admit Admiral Rickover gets
things done. Along tortuouS path strewn
with the wreckage of bureaucratic barriers,
he has built three monuments to the art
of the possible: The nuclear- powered sub
marine Nautilus, far and away the swiftest
conversion of atomic bomb science to non
destructive power any place in the world;
the United States first commercial nuclear
power station at Shippingport, Pa; and his
Office.
The Nautilus and Shippingport are
already well known His Office is still to
be discovered.
He is located on the second floor of one
