Thanks folks. You're great:
   Lucio Chiappetti <lucio_at_ifctr.mi.cnr.it>
   Hellebo Knut <Knut.Hellebo_at_nho.hydro.com>
   Hubert Robitaille <hrobitaille_at_vega.encore.fr>
   Fergal Mc Carthy <fergal_at_ilo.dec.com>

My Question: Why do our DEC Fortran (v3.8 and earlier) compiled
             executables not accept <cntrl> c to kill them?

     Answer: A bug in the compiler, since fixed in v4.0. The patch
             to fix this and other compiler things is found at:
             ftp://ftp.service.digital.com/pub/osf/v3.0/fortran_unix/3.8

Also, it was pointed out (quite politely) that this problem and answer
was already treated several months earlier and that I could
have found it in the archives. My apologies.
