Some NASA scientists were helping their communities and hiding their aid projects "as though they were sinful," Ray Cromley said in Washington Daily News. Scientists were using space-acquired skills "to help their fellow men in ways they were uniquely qualified." Projects included applying systems analysis to air pollution problem, planning school expansion to meet population expansion, applying systems concept to town management and to city police force problems, developing new concepts for airport planning and new technique for vandalism prevention, developing improved communications systems for city emergency departments, and helping an agency develop ways of evaluating proposals for study and development contracts with private industry.
