Riding on Air-- A box-shaped machine kicks up a cloud of dust as it rises off the ground on a self-produced cushion of air during yesterday's demonstration at the James V. Forrestal Research Center at Princeton University. The unit, built for the Army by National Research Associates of College Park, Md., is reported capable of moving up a seven percent grade. Operated yesterday by Ralph Smith, it rose 15 inches off the ground.
