                             Mr. Dawley visualized the program being conducted mainly on a

                      level of effort basis and a relatively fixed amount of tunnel time. Four


                      weeks of tunnel testing was mentioned, but could not be taken as firm.

                      We arranged to have a meeting the next day to discuss our approach and


                      attempt to establish a basis for man loading the program.

                             Mr. Dawley then reviewed the proposed race car activity which


                      included running tests on a complete race car in a wind tunnel. He

                      visualized our supporting their work in^preparation of cars forz/testing,


                      supervising tests and reducing data. The work is most urgent and carries

                             Mr. Dawley was leaving Tuesday to visit the Pratt & Whitney/ffacility

                      at East Hartford, Connecticut. They were not aware of the Lockheed


                      facility at Marietta,Georgia, which has just been completed and is in final

                      checkout and calibration. Mr. Dawl              would like for us to visit the Lock-


                      heed facility and give him a rundown Friday so that a decision can be made.

                             Tuesday morning the writer visited the Dodge Assembly Plant and

                      met with Mr. R. Mosher and A. Jansz to obtain more information on the


                      critical fasteners torque problem and a list of typical tool applications on

                      the assembly line. Mr. Mosher gave the writer a copy of a preliminary list


                      of safety torque items for information containing the location and required

                      torque range.


                             Mr. Jansz stated that present thinking required a automatic record

                      to be kept of torque which would be in punched card form controlled at each

                      machine and attached to the car after each operation. A sample card was
