The Center was also deeply involved in similar studies in­vol ving lunar sam pIe s that were brought home on the Apollo 11 mission.

More than 125 photographs were made of those samples with the aid of the Scanning Electron Microscope, w h i c h were conducted on a sin g Ie "rock" weighing approximate­ly three g ram s, and a few grams of fine lunar dust.

The findings have been pre­sented by Nagy and Drew in various meetings throughout the country, including the first Lunar Conference in Houston last January.

According to Drew, as re­ported in the January 30 issue of THE ROCKETEER, the Apol­lo 11 sample consists mostly of shattered material produced by meteor imp ac ts on the moon's surface.

The heat of collision between the lunar surface and the me­teorite causes a flash-melting which can produce a fine spray of molten material, and this may a c c 0 u n t for the many round, 0 b Ion g glass beads which are common throughout the material.

The rock studied at NWC was an agglomerate composed of such material. Its outer sur­face on one side had several minute craters formed by high velocity meteorites. The walls lining these craters were cov­ered by a glassy material caused by the sudden heating after impact.

According to Drew, the re­search that was conducted by tbe various teams involved with the Apollo 11 study brought·

NWC CigareHe Smoking Survey Reveals Interesting Statistics

By. F. M. N.th.n Central Staff

Cigarette smoking at the Naval Weapons Center is higher among those who did not graduate from college than among those who did-and somewhat higher among those 30 years and over than among those under 30. This data is based on voluntary responses to a mail survey con· ducted by News and Views earlier this year. The responses covered about 25 percent of the NWC population, exclud· ing NAF .

No attempt was made to do a scientific survey. Conse­quently the results can only be considered suggestive of the incidence of smoking at the Center. The purpose of the poll, which was supported by the Center's Industrial Hygienist, was simply to stir interest in the subject and hopefully to generate a sense of competition among groups to quit smoking. (Some respondents indicated a significant number of people in their groups have recently stopped smoking.)

Figure 1 breaks down the number and percentage of smokers and nonsmokers into the categories covered by the survey.

NWC SMOKERS/N ONSMOKERS BY TYPE Type Smokers % Nonsmokers % Tot.1

Table 1. Figure 2 provides percentages by department of smok·

ers and of the proportion surveyed. The responses for some departments were extremely small and are not shown.

Percent Covered By Survey

All 35% 24% 32% 22% 32% 14% 12% 60% 35% 12% 25% 60%

Some noteworthy statistics in Table 2 are the low smoking rate of 23 percent in the Research Department versus a high of 52 percent in the Command Administra· tion Department. For types of employees within depart· ments, only 19 percent of college graduates are smokers in Codes 42 and 75; whereas, 40 percent of Code 55's col· lege graduates smoke. In the Command Administration Department, 51 percent of those under 30 smoke, while only 12 percent in Code 30 do and none of the 17 employees reported in Code 17 who are under 30 are smokers.

Those desiring additional information on this survey may call Fred Nathan on extension 2304.

Retired Federal Workers To Receive 5.6% Annuity Increase

Some 950,000 retired Feder· al employees and survivors will receive a 5.6 automatic cost-of· living annUity increase effec· tive August L The increase will be reflected in ann u it y checks mailed September I, the U.S. Civil Service Commis· sion announced.

The increase was triggered when the Consumer Price In· dex exceeded by 3 percent the base CPI of 128.7 (established in August 1969) and held for three con sec uti v e months; March (133.2), April (134.0), and May (134.6). The amount of annuity increase, under a 1965 law, is based on the high· est percentage increase over the base CPI during the consec· utive 3·month period plus an additional 1 percent author· ized by law in October 1969.

Federal employees who reo tire on or before July 31 will also receive the 5.6 percent cost-of·living inc rea s e. The Commission emphasized that to receive the increase, the rettr· ing employees must not be in a pay status after July 31, 1970.

In pending disability retire· ment cases, applicants may reo quest agencies to place them on leave without pay from and including August 1, 1970, to qua 1 i f y for the annuity in· crease. If the disability rettre· ment claim is disallowed, sick or annual leave with pay may be substituted retroactively for the leave without pay. If the claim is allowed, the accumu· lated annual leave will be pay· able in a lump sum. Sick leave will be allowed in the compu·

tation of the annuity rate. Because cost-of·living annu·

ity increases are granted auto· matically, the Co mm i ssio n noted that annuitants need not write to the Commission to ob· tain them.

Charles Mussier Returns to COM To Manage Pool Charles "Buzz" Mussier has

returned to manage the swim· ming pool at the Commissioned Officer's Mess, a position be held in 1968 and early 1969.

Mussier is well known in the local area, having worked here for 19 years before retiring from Code 5512 in 1965, where he was a Supervisor of Quality Control.

Mussier and his wife Virginia have four daughters: Barbara Etoch, Nancy Hoyem, Kathy Reese and Rita Fant, all of whom graduated fro m Bur· roughs High School.

According to Buzz, his main goal as manager of the pool area is to insure that the mor· ale of members of the Club is kept high by his staffs dili· ·i: gent care and cleaning of tbe . pool area, but most important, to prevent loss of life, or injury in the pool complex.

MussIer stated that all his lifeguards are certified by the American Red Cross, and are completely capable and quali· 'fied for the job.

Pony All Stars Lose Division Opener, 5·3

The Indian' Wells Valley Po­ny League All Slln's, who won the Area Championship by an 11-4 score against Palmdale Sunday, July 19 at Lancaster, lost the opening round against Lancaster, 5-3, in the double elimination Division Playoffs Tuesday, July 21, also in Lan­caster.

The team, which is managed by Marty Denkin, played their second game last night in Lan­caster, too late to be featured in this issue of The ROCKET­EER.

Langn.r, though in great pain, cr.wled to the bell Ind .threw the runner out by hllf a .tep to .nd the inning, fol­lowing a two-run rally by Lan­ca.ter, which tied the ""me at 2-2 and .end the contest into extr. innings.

During a three run n i nth inning, Billy Lalor, relief pit­cher for the IWV All Stars, was spiked in the ankle fol­lowing an attempted steal of home plate by a Lancaster run­ner. Lalor was relieved hy Lar­ry Kreie, wbD shut off the Lan­caster scoring. However, Lan­caster had tallied enough runs as IWV was able to score but once in their half of the ninth inning.

Arel Chlmpion. rwv advanced to the Divi­

sion Playoffs by defeating Sau­gus-Newhall, 13-1, in the open­ing round at Lancaster, Tues­day, July 14. On Friday, they met a surprisingly strong Palmdale team and went down to defeat 6-5, despite leading

3-1 at one time during the game.

On . Saturday, July 18, IWV rallied to defeat Quartz Hill, 12-7, with Herb Langner win­ning his second game of the tournament. Lalor and Blanche hit home runs in the gam e, and Larry Kreie made a fine save of the game for Langner, shutting Quartz Hill off in the final inning.

These two wins by rwv set up the double header on Sun­day a g a ins t Palmdale, who had not yet lost a game. IWV showed their class in the first game behind the power - hit­ting of Amos Blanche, who hit two home runs in the game, and a homer by Mike Brown. Billy Sizemore was the win­ning pitcber of the game, de­spite serving up two home runs to the Palmdale power hitter, Haller, who managed to hit four home runs in the five game series, tieing rwV's Am­os Blanche.

In the final game played on the Sunday, rwv left no doubt _ as to their superiority, send­ing Palmdale down to defeat, 11 to 4. Relief pitcher Kreie, Sizemore and Blanche each hit home runs in the winning ef­fort.

Amos Blanche was the big bat for rwv during the series, hitting .625, with four hom e runs, eight runs batted in, 10 hits, scored 10 times, and had an on·base average of .778. However, not to be overlooked were the two wins by Lang­ner, the win by Lalor and by Sizemore, and the marvelous relief efforts by Larry Kreie. According to Marty Den kin, the IWV team was exactly that, a "team," and the games were won by a concentrated effort bv all concerned.

Wage Surveys Are Scheduled By

OCMM for FY '71 The Navy's Office of Civilian

Manpower Management, Wash' ington, D.C., has released a tentative schedule of wage sur­veys across the nation to be conducted for the DOD Wage Fixing Authority during Fiscal Year 1971.

Wage surveys are conducted in private industry by Navy, Army, or Air Force in order to determine wage changes in the private sector since the !lre­ceding survey. Federal CIvil service employees in Trades and Labor Occupations have their wages set on the survey data thus obtained.

Trades and Labor employees at China Lake have their wages set administratively, but based on Los Angeles area rates. A recruitment and retention dif­ferential of $.06 per hour is added to the Los Angeles area survey rates.

Trades Ind Labor employees at Corona Annex have their wlges set on pay dltl cciUected from the San Bernardino, Riv­erside, Ontario area.

Both these areas are sched­uled to be surveyed beginning in September 1970. For the Los Angeles area, the surveying or­ganization will be the Long Beach Naval Shipyard. For the San Bernardino, Riverside, On­tario area, the surveying or­ganization will be Norton Air Force Base. Each surveymg organization will use the Wage Change Survey method where­in those firms and job-titles used for last year's full-scale survey will be used . for this survey. In a wage change sur­vey, contacts with private in­dustry are made primarily by telephone.

For further information or to have questions answered, call the Head, Wage and Clas­sification Division, China Lake, extension 3196.

Festivities will start at 6:30 p.m. with the unveiling of a stone monument lis tin g the names of the original 100 com­mUNITY-minded citizens who donated $35 each for a life membership, making possible the burning of the mortgage on the Des e r t Empire Fair­grounds Park at the first Fair Day in 1967.

For the preceding 24-plus hours, experienced barbecue chefs will have been busy pre­paring a side of beef in a spe­cially constructed pit in the heart of the midway section. Following the brief ceremonies, they will be ready to serve up the tender succulent meat, the beans, and all the other proper accompaniments. Dancing will begin around 8 p.m. and last well into the summer night. Tickets are priced at $2.50 for adults, $l.50 for young people 12 to 18, and 75¢ for children under 12. Refreshments will be available all through the evening.

Tickets are now in the hands of the DEF Board of Directors, or may be purchased on the grounds following the dedica­tion.

Dr. O. A. Kearns Lists Symptoms Of Deadly Tetanus

Tetanus is a disease which must not be t a ken lightly, warns Owen A. Kearns, M.D., Kern County Health Officer.

"Tetanus, or Lockjaw as it is more commonly known, can be a de a d I y disease," Dr. Kearns says. "For example, in the years 1967-68, 34 cas e s were reported in California. Of these, 15 persons died as a re­sult of the disease. Fortunately for Kern County, there has been only one fatality in the past five years due to tetanus."

Dr. K ear n s indicates that tetanus may result from the most trivial scratch or insect bite. However, iniuries most likely to lead to tetanus are deep puncture w 0 un d sand burns, because of the greater chance of infection.

Spores of the bacteria which cause tetanus can be found al­most everywhere. They are present in the soil, street dirt and dust, animal droppings and particularly in manured soil.

"Infection is almost always acquired t h r 0 ugh an open wound," Dr. Kearns points out. "Sometimes, the point of entry is so small that the victim is not aware that he has been in­jured."

"Once the disease takes hold, there is an increasing degree of muscle stiffness, especially in the jaw and neck. Other early symptoms are difficulty in swallowing, restlessness, irri· tability, headaChe, chilliness and pain in the extremities," Dr. Kearns explains.

Once inside - the body, the bacteria can produce a deadly poison. One·fourth teaspoon of this toxin is enough to kill 100,000 persons. "To prevent development of t eta nus the poison produced by the bac­teria must be. made inactive before it reaches the nervous system," Dr. Kearns says. "This is accomplished by immuniz­ing persons against disease."

Immunization with tetanus toxoid in D.P.T. should be ad­ministered early. Three in­jections are usually given to children beginning at 8 weeks of age through the 6th month of life.

"Booster injections are given again at 1 year of age and 4 years of age," Dr. Kearns ex­plains. Additional booster in­jections should be administered as recommended by a physi­cian.
