Subject: Merit Increase for R. L. Bredimus

Please consider Mr. Bredimus for a merit salary increase based

on his performance since September 1964, the date of his last increase.

Bredimus has demonstrated to all concerned that his competence

in the field of machine design is without question. Listed

below are some of the research oriented projects for which he

has made substantial contributions in the past two years:

1.            Radial filament sphere project.

2.            Hi pressure test equipment.

3.            Skid and traction instrumentation

4.            Tire testing facilities.

5.            New tire concept design.

6.            Golf ball test equipment.

9.            Torsion pendulum design.

10.          Gov't. Contract work on heated divers' suits.

11.          Drawing equipment for Polyester cord project.

In addition to research oriented projects, all facility design is under his direction.

Bredimus also coordinates the activity of the various groups in order to find the most efficient method of doing work.

It is my opinion that Mr. Bredimus has earned a salary increase.
