Stellar Technology's

Battleship Spare Parts

Depot Locates In Camden

Edward J. McManimon Jr., chairman of the South Jersey Port

Corporation, and John J. Noonan, president of Stellar Technology

Corporation, have announced the lease by the Port Corporation of 80,000 square feet of warehouse space to Stellar. Aggregate rental of the transaction is in excess of $550,000. The warehouse will be used in support of the U.S. Navy's

Battleship Program.

The Stellar Technology facility will be utilized by the Navy as a cen- tral assembly point for all of the spare "battleship unique" materi- als. These are parts that, because of the ships' age, are not used on other ships of the fleet. Much of it is material that has been assembled from numerous sources in order to provide "spare parts" for the battle- ships.

Stellar will be required to inspect, test, and repair this material and provide it to the ships as the need for repair parts arises. The company intends to accomplish this work in the Camden, N.J., facility.
