Shults, skipper of NOTS Enlisted Personnel, promised spectators "one of the finest displays of marching prow- ess in the area." He will lead the contingent in parade forma- tion. Color Guard Enlered The Security unit will also provide a color guard for the Seaman Guard contingent. N a val Alr Facility's 35-man drill unit, recently organized un- der the direction of Ens.

'Open' Study Report Tells ••• School Systems Here -And WhatHappened AtAECCommunities (Edilors NOle: This is Ihe fifth in a series of articles being writ- ten to acquaint the citizens of China Lake wit h informa- tion concerning the 1I0penll com. munily sludy.) This article will discuss pub- lic education in the China Lake- Ridgecrest area. The existing fi- nancial support of local schools, and the impact of community transfer at the AEC communities of Oak Ridge, Tenn., RiChland, Wash., and Los Alamos, N. M, will be explained. Since the establishment of a community at China Lake, the management of the U. S. Naval Ordnance Test Station has rec- ognized the need for a good school system. Recruitment and retention of high caliber em- ployees in an isolated area such as NOTS makes dependent schooling a matter of prime im- portance. The firsl elemenlary s c h 001 session on the Station was held during Ihe school year 1944-45 in the quonsel huts which the Day Nursery now occupies. The records indicate that this first year of operation was character- ized by improvision, cumshaw, and confusion, but the kids re- ceived a year's schooling. The China Lake Joint Elemen- tary School District was created by a special act of the California legislature in May of 1945. The District has grown from six huts and an enrollment of 365 in 1945- 46 to five modern plants and an estimated enrollment of 2,500 in 1963-64. Four Districts in Area There are four school districts presently involved in the public education picture at China Lake and viCinity. Burroughs High School (grades 9-12) and a branch of Bakersfield Junior College which serve the entire Indian Wells Valley are parts of the Kern County Joint High School and Junior College districts.

BOB VAN NOCKER jr., ex- rodeo champ from Boron, will ride a quarter horse in the ~ Fair Parade. Nearly 150 organizations had been entered in the parade pro- gram by late this week, including 50 equestrian groups~ some 30 floats, 5 bands in addition to special entries. NOTS al Fair The NOTS float, dis P I a y- ing weapons developed by the Station, will be one of the fea- tured entries in the parade, ac- cording to officials. Ray Sinnott, presentations di- viSion, said the Command would also have its newest exhibits on display at the fair. 'Open' Study Report Tells ••• School Systems Here -And WhatHappened AtAECCommunities (Edilors NOle: This is Ihe fifth in a series of articles being writ- ten to acquaint the citizens of China Lake wit h informa- tion concerning the 1I0penll com. munily sludy.) This article will discuss pub- lic education in the China Lake- Ridgecrest area. The existing fi- nancial support of local schools, and the impact of community transfer at the AEC communities of Oak Ridge, Tenn., RiChland, Wash., and Los Alamos, N. M, will be explained. Since the establishment of a community at China Lake, the management of the U. S. Naval Ordnance Test Station has rec- ognized the need for a good school system. Recruitment and retention of high caliber em- ployees in an isolated area such as NOTS makes dependent schooling a matter of prime im- portance. The firsl elemenlary s c h 001 session on the Station was held during Ihe school year 1944-45 in the quonsel huts which the Day Nursery now occupies. The records indicate that this first year of operation was character- ized by improvision, cumshaw, and confusion, but the kids re- ceived a year's schooling. The China Lake Joint Elemen- tary School District was created by a special act of the California legislature in May of 1945. The District has grown from six huts and an enrollment of 365 in 1945- 46 to five modern plants and an estimated enrollment of 2,500 in 1963-64. Four Districts in Area There are four school districts presently involved in the public education picture at China Lake and viCinity. Burroughs High School (grades 9-12) and a branch of Bakersfield Junior College which serve the entire Indian Wells Valley are parts of the Kern County Joint High School and Junior College districts.

HIGH-FLYING PACKAGE conlaining NOTS operalional ozone- sonde (ROCOl), which reached a record allilude of 142,000 feel, is inspected by project men W. L. Burson and H_ P. Patton of NOTS Earlh and Plonelary Sciences Division_ By FRED RICHARDS A new altitude record of 142,.. 000 feet was set by a baUoon flight of a NOTS-developed in. strument recently at Sioux Falls, South Dakota, in a final evalua.. tion test for a project supported by Ihe Office of Naval Research. Penetration and evaluation of the ozone layer of the earth's atmosphere (the ozonosphere) by the NOTS ozonesonde (ROCOZ) qualifies the instrument for fur- ther testing as a rocket-borne unit in a series of flights at Pt. Mugu this fall. Computer Assesses Data According to Arlin J. Krue- ger, NOTS project leader of the ROCOZ program, the instrument functioned successfully through- out the entire balloon flight and parachute descent. The teleme- tered data, recorded on magnetic tape, is being - assessed on the IBM 7090 computer. Basically, ROCOZ is an optical instrument utilizing the sun as a light source. The vertical distri- bution of the ozone is measured through the attenuation of solar energy by ozone at selected (Conlinued on Page 4) , China Lake Museum,Rocketeer Newspaper,Rocketeer 1960s,Rocketeer 1963,Rktr9.20.1963.pdf,Rktr9.20.1963.pdf Page 1, Rktr9.20.1963.pdf Page 1
