For Fire Chief Jim D a vis
and the men of the NOTS Fire
Department, fir e prevention
week comes 52 times a year.
Next week, to coincide with Na-
tional Fire Prevention Wee k
the department will emphasiz~
their work.
A program of fire preven-
tion education is conducted by
the fire department the year
around. In talking to groups
and individuals they point out
that over 90 percent of all fire
loss is due to negligence. The
offenders are listed as follows:
The car.I••• smoker r.te. a.
probably the greatelt offend-
er. Too many smokers get into
the hobit of throwing cigarette
buttl on the floor, on the roadl
or in a w..te paper balket. II'I
ealY to lee the dangars involv-
ed in these car.lell aetl.
The person who smokes in
bed or anyplace in a house
when sleepy always runs the
chance of fire damage, to say
nothing of death. Unfortunate-
ly it is not always just the smo-
ker who suffers from the neg-
ligent act. More often than not
the innocent is also hurt by a
fire caused in this way.
Too many electrical applian-
ces plugged into a single out-
let, or appliances that are al-
lowed to overheat also contri-
bute to fire loss. It may be the
iron left on, or the coffee pot
left to boil dry. Whatever their
nature, electrical appliances
that generate heat should nev-
er be left unattended.
Improper Wiring
Old and improperWIring can
be a big cause of fire dam-
age. Many older houses were
wired long before all of the
popular modern electrical de-
vices came into use. Be sure
that you do not overload your
electrical lines.
Residence Inspection
Fire Prevention inspections
of homes on the Station will be
made each week day and Sat-
urday afternoon throughout
the month of October.
Fire Diy iii 0 n personnel,

Greater Speed, Remote Access
To Present New Opportunities
A taste of what the coming
new year is to bring to NOTS
in the way of multiplying the
benefits of computer technolo-
gy, by making a giant new com-
puter available to a greatly en-
larged :clientele on Station, was
provided to an audience of pro-
fessional China Lakers Tues-
day, Septemher 27, by Dr. R.
M. Fano, Professor of Engin-
eering and of Electrical Com-
munications at M.lT.
In a lecture and demonstra-
tion at the Community Center
Tuesday morning, Dr. Fano ex-
plained the benefits of "com-
puter time-sharing," a system
of remote hookups to a central
computer to enable a number
of people to use it at the same
time.
A limilar kind of IYltem is
planned for NOTS early in
1967_ The time-sharing Iystem
at NOTS is to center around a
Univac 1108 computer to be
delivered here in early Janu-
ary for installation in Win!J 5
of Michelson Lob. Host for the
computer will be the Data Com-
putation Branch of Code 30,
headed by Robert H_ Bracken_
Hooked into the 1108 com-
puter are to be a dozen re-
mote consoles equipped wit h
TV-type viewing screens and
typewriter - 1ike keyboards.
There are also to be three Uni-
vac 1005 computers to provide
remote d a t a processing capa-
bility, having printout and card
capabilities. The 1005's are al-
so "stand . alone" computers,
and will do small jobs on their
,-,wn. One of them is already
ID use by Accounting Division's
Data ProceSSing Branch, hook-
ed by phone lines to, as avail-
able, an 1108 computer in Min-
neapolis or another in Hunts-
ville, Alabama, and use d to
provide future NOTS users of
the new system with program
checkout. An ffiM 7094 com-
puter now in use is to be re-
moved, and reassigned by the
Navy.
N.w SYltem Sav.. Time
"One of the main things is
that we expect to give the sci-
entist good turnaround tim e
with the new system," say s
Bob Bracken. He also points
out that large batch-type jobs
w h i c h now require several
hours to complete, could be
completed in 15 or 20 min-
utes with the new system.
He explains that the two new
services to be provided by the

To Present New Opportunities
A taste of what the coming
new year is to bring to NOTS
in the way of multiplying the
benefits of computer technolo-
gy, by making a giant new com-
puter available to a greatly en-
larged :clientele on Station, was
provided to an audience of pro-
fessional China Lakers Tues-
day, Septemher 27, by Dr. R.
M. Fano, Professor of Engin-
eering and of Electrical Com-
munications at M.lT.
In a lecture and demonstra-
tion at the Community Center
Tuesday morning, Dr. Fano ex-
plained the benefits of "com-
puter time-sharing," a system
of remote hookups to a central
computer to enable a number
of people to use it at the same
time.
A limilar kind of IYltem is
planned for NOTS early in
1967_ The time-sharing Iystem
at NOTS is to center around a
Univac 1108 computer to be
delivered here in early Janu-
ary for installation in Win!J 5
of Michelson Lob. Host for the
computer will be the Data Com-
putation Branch of Code 30,
headed by Robert H_ Bracken_
Hooked into the 1108 com-
puter are to be a dozen re-
mote consoles equipped wit h
TV-type viewing screens and
typewriter - 1ike keyboards.
There are also to be three Uni-
vac 1005 computers to provide
remote d a t a processing capa-
bility, having printout and card
capabilities. The 1005's are al-
so "stand . alone" computers,
and will do small jobs on their
,-,wn. One of them is already
ID use by Accounting Division's
Data ProceSSing Branch, hook-
ed by phone lines to, as avail-
able, an 1108 computer in Min-
neapolis or another in Hunts-
ville, Alabama, and use d to
provide future NOTS users of
the new system with program
checkout. An ffiM 7094 com-
puter now in use is to be re-
moved, and reassigned by the
Navy.
N.w SYltem Sav.. Time
"One of the main things is
that we expect to give the sci-
entist good turnaround tim e
with the new system," say s
Bob Bracken. He also points
out that large batch-type jobs
w h i c h now require several
hours to complete, could be
completed in 15 or 20 min-
utes with the new system.
He explains that the two new
services to be provided by the
