Northrop P-61’s
Lead the Way as
MacArthur Returns
to Philippines
October 30, 1944 -
Leyte Gulf, Philippines
Gen. Douglas MacArthur stood proud
and erect on the bridge of the light
cruiser NASHVILLE last week as she
sailed into the green waters of Leyte
Gulf. He had returned, keeping the
promise made in March of 1942. Bomber-
size P-61’s from Northrop, radar-guided
fighter aircraft with a 66-foot wing span,
guarded the skies for his safe voyage.
First American fighter designed specif
ically for night interception, the twin-
engine P-61’s reached the Pacific combat
zone earlier this year. Designed by Jack
Northrop, the giant “Black Widow” is
being produced in 13 different models
at the company’s Hawthorne plant, one
of the first in the industry to be auto
mated. “Our first large-scale produc
tion order is on schedule,” says Northrop,
“Our P-61 aircraft is in combat service
in both the Pacific and European theatres.”
January, 1980
Northrop Aircraft is still designing and
building high-performance aircraft, to
day in the company’s mile-long, modem
complex at Hawthorne. After 40 years
we’re still promoting our people as well
as our products, offering excellent sal
aries and benefits, including generous
vacations-the week-long Christmas Holi
day is another Northrop innovation in
the aircraft industry. Above all, we take
pride in our management philosophy:

Bush surprises polls r
and media in primary
United Press International
George Bush, a soft-spoken Yank-
ee-turned-Texan, has been cam
paigning for the presidency for more
than 18 months. But only recently
has anyone begun to take him se
riously.
AM-BUSHED
n
Contact the placement office to sche
dule an appointment with a Northrop
representative.
When he announced his candida
cy in 1978, one political observer
wrote that his campaign had just
peaked. From then on, despite a
marathon schedule of personal
appearances and a list of credentials
as impressive as that of any presiden
tial candidate, he remained only a
blip in the public opinion polls.
Now Bush has proved everyone
wrong and done precisely what he
has vowed from the outset:
W
Unit
undt
Octc
unlo
from
Do better in Iowa than the media
thought he would and use the wave
of publicity and new recognition to
move on to other victories in the
New England states.
He says his proudest accomplish
ment is that “my children still come
home. They do now, and they did in
the 60s.”
That kind of talk has fueled specu
lation that he may be too nice, too
decent to be president. Bush dis
counts that and says he’s got the
toughness that counts — “mental
toughness.”
“Some others might be more ex
citing orators. But we re not trying to
elect a class valedictorian. Were
trying to elect somebody who can
restore confidence in this country —
run it,” he says.
Born in Milton, Mass., Bush, 55,
is the son of the late Republican U. S.
Sen. Prescott Sheldon Bush and
Dorothy Walker.
In 1966 he was elected to the first
of two House terms from Houston.
Nixon then named him U.N.
ambassador, a post he held for two
years, and later moved Bush in to
head the Republican National Com
mittee at the height of the Watergate
scandal.
President Ford picked Bush to
head the U.S. Liaison Office in Pek
ing, then called him back to clean up
the embattled CIA as its director.
Bush tells his campaign audiences
he is a man of absolute integrity and
that every agency he has headed has
kept its integrity intact under his
leadership.
He’s an avid jogger and a tireless
campaigner, and if Bush has ever lost
faith in himself, he’s never shown it.
He has believed from the start that
he could make the Republican pres
idential race a two-man battle and
that he is the only challenger who
could stop the momentum of Ronald
Reagan’s bandwagon.
Politicking in small-town Iowa
United Press International
POLK CITY, Iowa — Four years
ago, four loyal Democrats braved the
frigid flatlands winter to turn out for
the local precinct caucus — a politic-
MANOR EAST 3
al event little understood by nearly
everyone.
“But you see, this is a boom town
now,” explained Mary Husako,
whose husband, Joe, has been the
Democratic precinct leader for more
of the past two decades in this central
Iowa village of 1,200.
Late Monday, more than 100 peo
ple crowded into the firehouse of
Polk City, which — despite Mrs.
Husako’s civic pride — is still little
more than a wide spot on a county
road 20 miles north of Des Monies.
