P&W Leads Engine iianrilpalpr) Manchester — A City ol Village Charm HpralJi 30 Cents Saturday, Jan. 30,1988 P&W LEADS ENGINE WAR Air Force splits order, 55% to 45% By Norman Black The Associated Press WASHINGTON - The Pratt & Whitney Division of United Tech­ nologies Corp. on Friday won the largest share of the Air Force’s fiscal 1989 jet engine business, beating out General Electric Co. for the second straight year. The Air Force, in a brief announcement, said Pratt k Whitney would be asked tobuild 55 percent of the jetengines required for its fighters during fiscal 1989 while GE would produce the remaining 45 percent. All together, the service said it planned to acquire 289 jet engines during the fiscal year starting next Oct. 1. The 55-45 split would give Pratt ft Whitney 159 of those engines and GE 130. The percentage split for each company was decided on the basis of bids submitted last year. The Air Forcedeclinedtooffera dollar estimate of the value of eachdeal, noting final contracts must stillbe negotiated. The two contracts together, however, will easily exceed $500 million. The Air Force launched what has been called the "great engine war” in 1983 when it decided to stage annual competitions for the right to supply engines for its two front-line fighters, the F-15 Eagle and the F-16 Fighting Falcon. Until that point, Pratt k Whit­ ney held a monopoly on providing the high-performance engines.

  • NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl Has Grown to Become One of the Largest Sports Spectacles in the United States
    / The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Chelsea Police Thesis Advisor Mr. Neil Behrman Signed Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2016 Expected Date of Graduation May 2016 §pCoJI U ncler.9 rod /he. 51;;:, J_:D ;l.o/80J · Z'7 The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making ~0/G , PG.5 Abstract Originally known as the AFL-NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl has grown to become one of the largest sports spectacles in the United States. Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.

  • Peter Cullen and Frank Welker Are More Than Meets the Eye
    Peter Cullen and Frank Welker Are More Than Meets the Eye Few cartoons and actions figures are as iconic, popular and recognizable as Transformers. Whether you grew up with the ’80s TV series, the original 1988 film or even the current blockbuster franchise, you most likely know the difference between an Autobot and a Decepticon. The original voices behind the eternal foes Optimus Prime and Megatron, Peter Cullen and Frank Welker, each have been doing voice work for over 50 years, and I was excited to talk with them in advance of their appearance at RI Comic Con. Rob Duguay (Motif): When you were approached to do the voices for the Transformers cartoon in the ’80s, what was your reaction? Peter Cullen: I remember being very curious about it. It was so new, so different from anything I had ever done or seen before. That is because there were no cute funny characters of all sorts of voice ranges, but simply an assortment of metal robots that fought for good or evil. It was more real life than cartoons. I was asked to read a few characters including Prime, and that opportunity proved to be a once in a lifetime. The words were perfect, some advice from my brother Larry — who is also a personal hero of mine — and the rest is history. Frank Welker: I was not familiar with the franchise at all, but loved the characters and the art. They were different than anything I was working on at the time. It was fun to play so many characters and of course I had the opportunity to be the big bad boy and I loved doing him and still do.

  • DAVE BUTZ CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Excerpts from the Washington Redskins Press Guides
    DAVE BUTZ CAREER HIGHLIGHTS Excerpts From The Washington Redskins Press Guides 1982 Season On the defense that gave up the fewest points (128) in the NFL last season, Dave Butz anchored it. He was unanimous "Why didn't he get picked for the Pro Bowl?" selection, as Dave had his best season as a pro. He led the defensive line with 55 regular season tackles and 19 post-season stops. The veteran, who now has played in 109 of 112 games since coming to the Redskins, also recorded 4-1/2 regular season sacks, forced one fumble, and recovered one fumble. In the playoffs, Dave forced two fumbles, and, of course, recovered David Woodley's Super Bowl fumble after Dexter Manley knocked the ball loose. That particular play brought out the experience of Dave Butz. A younger player might have tried to scoop it up and run and lose the ball, but Dave just made sure he was in bounds and had the ball. A Moseley field goal shortly followed. Dave has now played in 55 straight contests and has led the Redskin defensive line in tackles the last three seasons. He also was given a Timmie Award by the Washington Touchdown Club, his second (he won one in 1979). Games Played: 9 Games Started: 9 1983 Season Some players have seasons to remember; others have specific games to remember. In 1983, Dave Butz had one of each. His season was, in a word, spectacular. In reaching the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career (an overdue honor), Dave made 69 tackles (2nd best among defensive linemen), piled up a team-leading 11-1/2 sacks, forced a team-best five fumbles, and even recovered one.

    CON SAFOS --A CHICANO'S JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE IN CALIFORNIA 247 Sports Illustrated muffs it! Joe Batiste of Sacramento Junior College 1n the early 1980's, on a weekday afternoon, a friend and I were talking sports in the cocktail lounge of the downtown Holiday Inn, San Jose, Calif. The only other customer was a very large sun-tanned fe llow in a blue suit, who was drinking whiskey and chasing it with beer like he wanted to drown himself. y friend was telling me about Bruce Jenner whom he had seen compete in M track and field some years earlier. He was very impressed with Mr. Jenner. I was championing the talents of Rafer Johnson. About a half hour into our discussion, the barkeep brought us a beer we had not ordered. Soon the sun­ tanned fellow was standing behind us, his arms resting on our shoulders, and drunkenly saying, "Neither one of those guys could carry Joe Batiste's jockstrap." "Who in the hell is Joe Batiste?" I asked, curious because I have followed track and field from the time I was in the eighth grade and Bob Mathias won the 1948 Olympic decathlon championship. "Look at these guys, Hal!" he yelled at the barkeep, obviously another native Arizonan, "They never heard of Joe Batiste, star of the Tucson High School Badgers!
