Default Help me identify this vintage sailplane...please!

My brother built this plane from a kit a long time ago....perhaps late 70's. We have both forgotten what it is. Wing is approx 100 inches and it weighs about 2 pounds without radio gear. I would like to put a brushless motor on it, but I don't know what size....any suggestions regarding name of plane or power setup would be greatly appreciated.
