During this period it was determined that Sandia would not perform
the microbarographic measurements (Project 6.6).
This project

<A subsequent conference between Drs.
Graves and Ogle led to tne decision that all instrumentation would be
accomplisned within tne limits of tne above-mentioned protectorate to

Certain radical changes are required in this new model; these changes
