Second high on the honor list was Rudolph Vynes, Ogden. A mechanical engineering technician in Maintenance, Mr. Vynes received an award of $1,175 based on $94,276 savings. Unique Design It was for the unique design of a set of small jacks which can be utilized to retrieve an first-stag- e LGM-3- 0 motor from a transport erector in the event of a carriage suspension breakdown. Use of the jacks when an incident occurred prevented the need to develop and use more costly methods for removing the missile stage from the vehicle. In third place was William W. Skeen, an experimental plastic worker from Bountiful. His suggested modification to the F4C radome resulted in using a quantity of excess radomes thereby eliminating the need for additional F4D radome procurement. He was awarded $1,075 based on net benefits to the Air Force of $86,946. Following the lead was Glenn Forman, 348 Glen Ave, Layton, who received an award of $980 for saving T-3- 3 aircraft brake housings from He condemned. being originated a rework procedure of the brake housing to accomodate oversized pistons thereby extending the life of the brake housing.
