The first actual 'in use' testing begins this month, and evaluation— both official and private (which we will no doubt begin hearing immediately)— will be under way.
The three articles we carry this (nonth on MPATI have the objective rf presenting the facts on a still-verylew topic. We will welcome comments uid opinions, but for more informaion on the program will refer quesdoners to the headquarters of the opsration at Purdue University.
On the cover this month. Grove A'ebster of Purdue, a member of the eohnical staff of the program, peers lown the interior of one of the four(Qgine aircraft which will carry the rV transmitting equipment.
