Canadian Northwest
Territory Needs New Name
OTTAWA '.I’i A mass of Cana
dian terr ‘ore bigger than six of
the provinces combined is in need
of a name.
One of the actions of the current
Parliament will be to slice in two
the vast Northwest Territories,
making the split along the 105th
meridian from about the center of
Saskatchewan's northern border to
the Arctic Ocean.
The more heavily populated
western half is to be set up as a
separate district known as Mac
Kcn/.ie. But the nearly barren east
ern sector, most of it in the high
Arctic wastelands, still lacks a
label..
The 720,000-square-mile region
that will some day become a pro
vince is bigger than Prince Edward
Island, Nova Scotia, New Bruns
wick. New Foundland, Manitoba
and Saskatchewan put together.
Division of the northland was
decided upon at the January ses
sion of the Northwest Territories
Council. All that remains is for
the Cabinet and Parliament to ap
prove the decision and for the
boundaries to be set out by the
council.
When that happens, the name
Northwest Territories will legally
vanish.

FX fS ANGEI ,!\S i/Vi -— The police
office!1 thought he had an open
and shut case as he confidently
answered the defense attorney’s
questions,
“Yes,” said officer John Hop
kins, he did stop a British-made
car at the foot of the harbor free
way off-ramp in downtown Los
Angeles.
“Yes," officer Hopkins answer
ed, he did cite Ardellc Dimmitt,
27, of Los Angeles, for making an
illegal left turn.
“Yes,” replied officer Hopkins,
there was a man sitting on the
right.
“Is this the car? asked attorney
George Pike, producing a photo
graph.
“Yes,” answered officer Hop
kins. Then he blushed.
“The car,” Pike pointed out,
“has a right-hand drive. Mrs.
Dimmik wasn’t driving. Her hus
band. William was.”
“I give up,” said officer Hop
kins. ,
“Case dismissed," said the judge.
Pilots Who Flew Over
Cuba Saw Fighter Planes
WASHINGTON W — Two U.S.
pilots who flew surveillance mis
sions over Cuba say they saw Red
fighter planes, but only one of
them indicates he was in reach of
attack. Neither was fired on.
They made their statements
Wednesday as 25 medals were pre
sented by high ranking Air Force
and Navy officers to pilots who
flew over Cuba on reconnaissance
missions. Eleven more medals are
to be presented.
Lt. Col. Clyde East, command
ing officer of the 29th Tactical Re
connaissance Squadron, said at
Tampa, Fla., that he had spotted
three tvpes of Soviet Mig jet fight
ers while over Cuba.
He said one type—the Mig 21 —
was faster than his RF101 VooDoo
reconnaissance plane, rated at more
than 1,000 miles an hour. The So
viet planes, he said, “never fired
on us, they just hightailed it.”

I WASHINGTON '.?■ - Genera!
Dynamics Corp., with Grumman
j Corp. as an associate, won the
contract for development of the
[ TFK standard tactical plane for
I use by both the Air Force and
j Navy, the Defense Department an
nounced Saturday.
General Dynamics won out in
I a final competition with the Boeing
Co. for designing the plane, in
what eventually is expected to be
a multi-billion dollar program to
develop and build more than 1,500
planes.
The award was only for develop
ment of the tactical fighter. A pro
duction contract will come afn r
development has reached the p c '
where production is possible.
| General Dynamics will b" r
Iquired to provide 2'1 plane for
testing. The. first of these.' are t- he
delivered within 2'g years.
The TFK plane is designed
j the Air Force as the FI 11 A: the
Navy version is called the FillB.
Basically, the design is standard,
but variations will be made to
meet special requirements of the
The competition for the final
development contract was one of
the sharpest in the aircraft industry
since World War II. Originally 10
aircraft companies were invited to
submit proposals. A few months
ago the competition had narrowed
down to General Dynamics and
Boeing.
The Defense Department said,
“the General Dynamics design was
selected because it offered the best
chance of developing an airplane
that would be both operationally
acceptable and compatible with re
quirements of the two services.”
The Pentagon said the two-man
fighter will be powered by twe
Pratt & Whitney JFT-10A-20 turbe
fan jet engines.
The Fill will have a top speec
of about 21/2 times the speed o:
sound, and be capable of shorn
take off from rough airfields.
“The aircraft will be able tc
fly anywhere in the world in one
day,” the Pentagon statement said
“It will be capable of carrying
all conventional and nuclear weap
ons including the latest air-to
surface and air-to-air tactical
weapons.”
