Its. ability to demonstrate the
feasibility of the new naviga-
tional concept has been termed
a major scientific break
through" by officials at the Sill
yer Spring installation.
Transit is being tracked by
six ground stations which are
recording its signals broadcast
on four frequencies. The change
in frequency of its continuous
transmissions provides the basis
for positional information
which can be utilized by ships
or planes through the installa-
ton of receiving mechanism to
compute the satellites broad
cast data.
According to its developers,
the navigatiOnaI data provided
by the Transit system can be
used by any nation i'm the world
to guide its merchant ships.
Soviet Russia, in launching
the first Sputnik in 1857, I'M
Willingly was an instrument in
the development of Transit.
Much of the early information
was CLEANED by scientists from
the laboratory after they set up
an improvised tracking station
to follow the course of the Rus
sian satellite.
DR.. William H. Guier, GOT
Kerwin rd., Silver Spring, was
one of two men involved in the
initial tracking experiment.
Later, another Silver Spring
resident, DR.. Frank T. Mcclure,
of 80 Copley Ia, came up with
the theory that system used
to spot the positions of a satel-
lite could also be utilized by
man to determine his own posi-
ton.
When DR.. McClure's theory
was accepted by the laboratory,
development of the Transit sys-
tenn was launched under the
supervision of DR.. Richard B.
Kershner, 2406 Lindell ST., Sill
yer Spring, who previously had
played a major role in develop
ment of the Terrier missile.

Sports Car
Driuer Dies
In Crash

Roger A. Austin, husband OF
Mrs. 10 Austin, IBM secretary
in the Federal Systems Division,
Rockville, died last Thursday
from injuries suffered when his
sports car overturned on the
Colesville- Falkland I'd. He was
q and resided at 1924 Piney
Branch I'd, Silver Spring.
The accident occurred a few
minutes after Austin dropped
his wife off in Wheaton, where
she regularly got another ride
to work. Informed of the acct
dent, Mrs. Austin was placed
under ISOLATION.
Austin died at Washington
Sanitarium of multiple head in
juries and massive internal
bleeding. He became the fourth
traffic fatality this year in
Montgomery County. Seven had
been killed by the same date
last year.
The fatal accident occurred
on a road Austin had driven
daily for more than 10 months.
Narrow and twisting in many
places, the road had been brand
ed as hazardous by scores of
employees using it each day to
and from work at John Hopkins
Laboratory in Scaggsville, How
ard County.
The accident site was less
than 100 feet from a narrow
bridge where others have been
injured, several seriously. Use
of the road by motorists is
sometimes restricted by large
gravel trucks who use the route
regularly.
Police said Austin was driv-
ing eastward, apparently fast,
when he lost control of his new
sports car. The car left the west
bound lane of the road, struck
a tree stump and turned over,
pinning Austin in his seat.
By the time KenSington res
cue squadmen arrived, a large
crowd had collected, some of
whom had used fallen trees to
pry the car off Austin. He was
unconscious and moaning.
Austin's mother-in-law, Mrs.
Robert L. McConnaughly, of
8601 Manchester rd., Silver
Spring, said Austin was a men,
Der of the Sports Car Club OF
America. At the same time, she
said both she and her daughter
had been worried for his safety
since he bought the speedster.
"He was very impatient" Mrs.
McConnaughy said.
Police said a woman spec.
tatOr at the scene Of the crash
said she saw Austin frequently
as both drove along the Coles
vilIe.Fairland rd. She was re-
ported to have said Austin al
ways drove very fast.
Austin was employed as an
industrial engineer at the Amer
lean Research Bureau, Belts
vile, a television rating COM
pany. He held a degree in in
dustrial engineering f r o m

graduated last year. Two years

More Letters
To Editor
Whof Are Issues?

am sure glad that l am
not a new voter in Rockville
searching the local newspaper
for information on which to
base my vote. l have read all
the news stories; and even
worse all the letters to the edi-
tor. Everybody seems to be
playing some kind of a silly
game with little concern for
the only important thing-the
best possible government for
Rockville in light of what we
want a city to be.
l moved to Rockville eight
years ago to bring up my fam
lily in an identifiable commu-
nifty, rather than in sprawling,
mixed-up suburbia. Rockville
was suffering from sudden
growing pains. However, a
group of energetic and able
people = young and old from
all parts of the city = went to
work to develop a sound COM
munity to meet present and fu-
ture needs. Fanatics land there
were some) were gently laid
aside in the search for real
Woodworking talent to do a
job. The results in six short
years have been most crafty
ing. We have a sound and eco
nomical city government with
excellent utilities, sound code,
an outstanding recreation pro-
gram, and master plan.
I am not now, nor have I
ever been, a member of Citi-
zens for Good Government. All
/ know is that they have
backed the past three City
Councils elected. These coun-
ellis have guided and developed
Rockville's growth just the
way I was hoping they would.
Now we have a new slate
from eggs efforts = and /
think the best yet. 1t presents
an excellent balance of talent
financial, business, engineering,
and recreation = all of these
men have a keen interest in
Rockville and its development.
Each one will stand on his own
two feet and do what he thinks
Is best = and be beholden to
no group or individual.
The Sentinel could do a real
service by telling the people of
Rockville a little about the
candidates, not the superficial,
but what kind Of persons they
really are and what their tai
entS are - Alex Green and
Frank Ecker we know from
their performance. Tell us
about Ralph Williams, Achilles
Tuchtan and Glen Koepenick,
the new candidates. You will
find that each one of these men
has already made many real
concrete contributions to our
community. Their talents, abili-
ties, and enthusiasm for an
ever better Rockville is I'M
questioned.
If someone can show me that
any of the Independent candi-
dates is better qualified, l will
sure vote for one or all. Now,
for heaven sake let's quit talk
ing in riddles and roll out the
issues and the qualifications of
the candidates.

WASHINGTON - DIR. Ben Rel.
fel, the winner of the Indian Coun'
Gil Fire Achievement Award for
1860, will be the first Indian ever
to represent South Dakota in Con-
gress.
Reifel is Congressman elect
from the First (eastern) district
of South Dakota. He defeated the
South Dakota Secretary of Agri-
culture, Ray Fitzgerald, by a vote
of 122, ,53O-1O1. ALI. in the big farm
district. Reifel is a Republican.
He succeeds a, Democrat, Geroge
McGovern, who vacated the seat
to run unsuccessfully for the Sen
ate. McGovern was the first Dem
ocrat ever elected to serve in
Congress from South Dakota.
Farm unrest turned over the seat
in 1856. Reifel has returned it to
its usual Republican moorings.
Reifel ran for Congress in an
overwhelmingly non Indian dis
trict. Most of the Indians in South
Dakota live in the Western half
of the state. He ran on his record
Of public service, which is a good
one. He never had been a cam
didate for public Office before.
Prior to entering the primary, in
which he beSted two other COP
candidates for the nomination,
Reifel asked Sen. Karl E. Mundt,
