According to Clint Seal, head of the ElectnrOptical Branch in the Range Department at the China LaIce site, the recent transfer of six Contraves J(jneto Tracking Mounts (KTMs) from Naval Ocean Systems Command Center (NCCOSC) San Diego will speed up an internal effort to modernize the time, space, position information (fSPI) systems on the China Lake ranges. This effort will lead to the gradual replac::cment of more than 50 World War n era Askania Cinetheodolite tracking mounts with the KTMs. The NAWCWPNS plan calls for 15 KTMs with associated equipment to support the change from a five-image-per-second film-based TSPI system to a 6O-imagc-per-second video TSPI sys- tem, operating in real time. Seal explained that after evaluating their planned test load, NCCOSC officials decided it would make sense to move tbe equip- ment to China Lake.

Henry, an early China Lalcer, died at his home Sunday, March 13, at the age of78. A memo- rial servic::c was beld Monday at the All Faith Chapel. Born Jan. 26, 1916, in Yakima, Wash., Henry gradu- ated from Yakima Valley High School in 1934 and went on to the University of Washington, wbere he earned a bachelor's degree in 1938 and Ph.D. in 1942, both in chemistry. After working for Proctor and Gam- ble Co. in Cincinnati, Ohio, for five years, he came to work at the Naval Ordnanc::c 1l:st Station, China LaIce in February 1947.

He was an internationally rec- ognized authority in the scienc::c and ordnanc::c applica- tions of a diverse class of organic ("high nitrogen") compounds. Beyond this acknowledged expertise, Henry was also known for his contributions to other areas of organic chemistry, including fluorescence and laser dyes. Perhaps his most notable contributions were in the field of chemiluminesc::cnce, which he pioneered with Hero Richter, Joseph Johnson and Ruth Tedrick. He had more than 20 patents as inventor or coinven- tor and more than 80 publications as author or coau- thor. He received the L.T.E. Thompson Award in 1960 and the Navy Superior Civilian Service Award in 1979. He was a member of the American Cbemical Society, Sigma Xi (Research Society of America), Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Lambda Upsilon (Chemistry Hooorary). Henry was a member of the NOTS Rockbounds (now the IWV Gem and Mineral Society) since 1951. He was also a member of the Archaeological Conser- vancy and had one site named after him. An active member of tbe Sierra Club Sinc::c 1965, he was also a member of the Nature Conservancy and a life member of tbe American Forestry Association. He held several offices in the China Lake Natural Science Club, a predec::cssor to the Maturango Museum, which he later helped to found.
