to go to Las Vegas?" (What
kind of a question is that2)
The explanation came that
the Air Force and ACF In
dustries were introducing at
Nellis Air Force Base, Las
Vegas, the first electronic flight
and tactical simulator of the
F-1O5D fighter bomber, the
largest-magnitude device of its
kind ever built. .... -......,

Just put yourself in the posi-
ton of convincing a conserva-
tive news room auditor into ap-
proving an expense account to
go to Las Vegas, New. to try
to "fly' a gadget that's made
in a Washington suburb.
Because the F-105D's pilot
must also be navigator, gunner
and bombardier,. the task of
producing a simulator must
have taxed even ACFs know
how. 'tt e..
The plane can fly In any
weather, day or night. at tree
top level or at $4,000 feet, fly
in support Of troops or destroy
an industrial complex.
To build all these problems
into an electronic device that
doesn't actually move was the
problem.
It came out of Riverdale
from the same grounds that
produced the spin-proof En-
coupe of years ago. The simu-
lator is 35 feet square, weighs
is tons, has S93,747 parts con-
nected by more than $50 miles
of wiring.
| An obviously ponderous, yet
nimble- thinking device, it car
present the pilot with every in
flight malfunction in the books
Yet it has double purpose

pilot as well as familiarizing
him with an actual mission tc

NEW YORK. Sept. A.
Psychologists today said the
threat of H-bomb war sis a
form of collective insanity, "
and called for new thinking to
put the world we'll again.
They spoke at a symposium
Of the American Psychological
Association on the psychopa-
thology of thermonuclear war.
DR.. Howard E. Gruber of the
University of Colorado said the
H-war threat lis a form of
collective insanity in which we
prepare to kill tens or hun
dreds of millions of people in
other countries with no hope
of gaining anything from it
except, supposedly, a lower
casualty rate in our country. "
He and other speakers said
democracy might we'll perish
also under the strict controls
which would be necessary to
rebuild society.
THE peculiar thing about
this COLLECTIVELY of death is that
the individuals preparing it are,
for the most part, individually
sane and intelligent. The
scientists on both sides are
sound, the military men are
sound, the statesmen likewise.
The individuals are sound, but
the combination is SICK" DR..
Gruber said.

For the same officials who

that the Soviet nuclear explo-

it would require a major change

Furthermore, the United
