2 'Cincinnatians 9 To Help Bring Us Sonic Booms Ntt. Hint MIDPLaVTOWW liluli ftkM4MR4 Milt VV -J LjJ it VAT I 1 I f'- Cincinnati PlLL'iBORO NiKE ClMCINNTI City Awaiting Window Rattlers BY JACK SMITH Of The Enquirer Staff Two "Cincinnatians" will be crew members of two of the B-58 Hustler bombers that will simulate highspeed bomb runs on this area. The men, both Defensive Systems Operators (DSOs) with the 305th Bomb Wing, Bunker Hill Air Force Base, were here yesterday to help introduce the overdue sonic booms to Cincinnati. Although B-58s have been hitting Cincinnati" every night since last Sunday, the city has yet to experience a good, tooth-rattling boom caused by the bombers' 1300-mph speed. Yet, several cities In Kentucky and in Ohio have been boomed by the bombers.

THE REASON for this became apparent yesterday MaJ. William W. Wilson of Connersvllle, dls-. played an Air Force map of "Cincinnati." By official AF designation, Cincinnati becomes the Cincinnati Target Complex. This includes cities such as Connersvllle and Maysville, Ky.

And this is how Major Wilson becomes a "Cincinnatian." His home town is part of the target complex. The other Cincinnatian really Is. He is 1st Lt. John J. Cappel whose parents live at 2900 LeFeuiile Westwood.

Mr. Cappel operates a gasoline station at St. Lawrence Corner, Price Hill. His son attended Western Hills High School and the University of Cincinnati. Major Wilson Is chief of DSOs at Bunker Hill and addressed the Rotary Club here yesterday concerning bombers and booms.

He brought a map for The Enquirer showing the targets of the area. All this week the bombers have been aiming at Maysville and on their approach flying so far south of Cincinnati the booms were not heard. However. Major Wilson said that If temperature and humidity are right booms still might be heard here. LIEUTENANT Cappel said that each of the crews in the wing will get a shot at each of the nine targets in this area in the future, and target location in many cases will mean some powerful booms for the city although runs are made to avoid cities if possible witness Maysville runs.

But other targets chosen because their radar echo gives good training for the crews are located in the following areas: Addyston, Greater Cincinnati Airport. Hamilton, near Mason, Middletown, South Dayton and Connersvllle. cincinnati target complex A to iootwit-te eans Funerals Albert H.

McCombs, 45, 8824 Cavalier Brentwood was held legally insane at a hearing before Judge Frank M.

Gusweiler yesterday In Common Pleas Court. The court ordered McCombs confined at Longview Hospital until such time as his reason is restored, then returned for trial on Tax Take Is Record For Area Southern Ohloans paid a record $2,094 billion into Federal revenues of all varieties during the fiscal year ended June 30, the Internal Revenue Service reported yestrday. Philipp L. Charles, director of the Cincinnati District, which includes 41 counties, said tax collections showed a $57 million increase over the previous year. Thli represented a i increase and a continuation of a three-year upward trend.

It suggests "a sound and steadily progressing economy in the area," In Mr. Charles' opinion. His report showed Individual Income tax collections Jumped 4 5, but that corporation income taxes decreased 3.5. However, the corporate decline was less than In the previous year, the director noted. Mr.

Charles Indicated that while withholding and Social Security tax collections reflected an increase 'of approximately $43 million, corporation Income tax collections showed decrease of $19 million. 'All other tax categories showed increases which amounted to over $16 million for estate and gift taxes; about $13 million for Individual income tax payments; almost $3 million for excise taxes, and more than $2 million for Federal unemployment taxes. The number and amount of refunds paid out also has increased. Since last January 1 more than $94 million has been paid to 775,000 taxpayers In this district. This was an increase of million refunded to an additional 27,000 taxpayers.

The principal reason for this. Mr. Charles said, is that taxpayers are doing a better Job of planning individual tax programs by having more money withheld from wages so that at the end of the year tax refunds are due rather than additional tax owed. The reduction of inventories of delinquent taxpayer accounts this year further substantiates this trend. Manned Still Are Push-button gadgetry will never "phase out" the trained aviation man, a Navy admiral said here yesterday.

"In this age of missiles and push-button warfare, many people think manned aircraft are obsolete," said Adm. I. M. Martin, chief of Naval Air Reserve training. "The best Information from planners is that 15 years from now we will have a greater need for manned aircraft than we have today." Electronics, he 1 out, cannot replace "decision-making processes" Washtngtonese for good old-fashion ed brain-work and common sense.

The admiral spoke to members of the 721st Naval Air Reserve Division on an Inspection visit to the Naval and Marine Corps Reserve Training Center, Gilbert Ave. and Victory Pky. The visit followed by four days a water line break at the center that coated the building's entire first floor with 18 inches of water and mud and caused $20,000 damage.
