Among other projects, TI pro duces HARM anti-radar missies for the Air Force and Navy, laser missile guidance systems, and instruments which allow soldiers to see in the dark. Donald Moore, deputy executive director for quality assurance at the Defense Logistics Agency, used the bad microcircuit as an example of about 15 million semiconductors produced and improperly tested by TI during the past eight years and sold to IBM. Pentagon spokesman Michael Burch cited the possibility of a crimi nal investigation being conducted against TI because of the suspect mi crocircuits. Analysts were quoted as saying the microcircuit issue also could have ramifications for TI if the company’s HARM missile program is found to be involved in the controversy. The Pentagon expects to spend more than $2 billion on the program by 1987. Neureiter, however, stressed that no commercial products, such as home computers, were affected by the microcircuits. “The abortion of the flight of Dis covery was due to failure in one of five redundant computers,” he said. “When the computer was taken apart a defective core-driver was found- Integrated circuits power the memory core. That part was made by us. “It appears a spot of contami nation nad corroded through, had caused a short-out. “No current test,” Neureiter said, “would have picked up that partic ular spot.” He said a “handful” of tests were apparently improperly conducted at the company’s military manufactur ing plant in Midland and in Taiwan. Neureiter said the company first brought the iregularities to the at tention of the defense department. “We’re naturally disturbed that what has been termed as ‘testing ir regularities’ has occurred in one of our operations. “We have found no evidence of fraud,” he said. “But nothing has been ruled out.” It is essential we get this probiem fixed as soon as possible to avoid se vere damage to the company’s mili tary-contract business, Neureiter said. “We are working with all dispatch and vigor, believe me.” Defense Logistics Agency spokes man John Goldsmith said 4,7O0dif- ferent kinds of chips were involved, but it was not known which weapons and other equipment contain the suspect semiconductors. The num ber of weapons and parts that maj he affected also was not known, tie said. But the DLA said no lives have been lost or aircraft or other equip ment destroyed because of parts fai ures. However, the implications of the potential problem were error I mous because of the widespread use of the semiconductors. The New York Stock Exchange briefly delayed trading in TI stod Tuesday morning because of an in flux of orders after the Pentagonan nouncement Monday. Thedelaywas a routine action to adjust to the an ticipated high volume of trade. If stock, however, fell from $141.50to $135 a share in T uesday’s tradingof 575,000 shares. Water Polo Club cleans up By DALLAS MORRIS Reporter Coke cups, popcorn and trash scattered about the stadium are com mon sights after Aggie football games at Kyle Field. But have you ever wondered who cleans up the stadium? The Water Polo Club does. The club cleans part of the sta dium and contracts out other parts of the cleaning job to different orga nizations for each game. “We clean all three decks of the stadium, all the ramps, concession stands, the field and the surround ing area around Reveilles’ tomb and the Eternal Flame,” said Chris Blockhus, president of the Water Polo Club. “It is a business operation,” he said. “The Health and P.E. office gave us the contract to get the sta dium cleaned and we contract it out to different organizations to get what we can’t cover.” Blockhus, who selects which orga nizations clean the stadium, said he is not biased against any group. Each group keeps the money it earns cleaning Kyle Field. The crew begins work each Sun day after an Aggie football game at 8 a.m. and usually is finished by noon. ^The crew is divided into two groups: the members of the Water Polo Club, who clean the decks and the ramps of Kyle Field, and anoth- erother group, which cleans the horseshoe of the stadium. Blockhui said the group that cleans the hor« shoe usually is through by 10 a.m., while the members of the Warn Polo Club usually are through br noon. Blockhus is in charge of all dean ups and ensures that the organia tion cleaning the horseshoe has dont a good job. He said he participates in the cleanup operations. “The cleanup team policy is thati anything is found of value it is turned in to the Health and PI business office,” Blockhus said. The money the W#ter Polo Cli collects for cleaning the stadium goes into a fund and is used forth club’s travel expenses, he said.
