On his Army retirement, he held civilian communications jobs with Comsat and MCI.

The team back then was owned by Comsat subsidiary Ascent Entertainment.

Louis Pollack, 97, a scientific specialist in microwave equipment design and communications satellite development who retired from Comsat in 1984 as vice president of its world systems division, where he was responsible for the Intelsat Technical Services Division, died Oct.

Before joining Comsat and moving to the Washington area in 1967 he worked 23 years for ITT in New York, where he designed microwave communications.
