A spokesman at Vanguard head quarters gave these details of the misfire:
 There was a loss of chamber 1pressure in the first stage after two seconds.
 'The rocket fell back on the stand, toppled over toward the water (to the east) and exploded" :"
 The American attempt to put a little 3A-pound test sphere into a globe circling course 300 miles up came more than month after Russia had sent a 1,OO0-pound satellite aloft, and more than two months after the Soviets launched their Sputnik I.
 Today's test was dismal fail- ure.

Washington Capt Horn said Tack of thrust" was the cause of the failure. He said the giant missile started off but within two seconds lost it's propellant power This was when it fell back on the launch ing stand and exploded.
 Horn said it was presumed that the first and second stage rockets, together with their fuels, were a total loss. But he said the smaller third stage rocket, containing the test earth satellite and using solid propellant, twas still out there somewhere" on the flat land surrounding the launching site.
 Horn said it normally requires -four to six weeks working around the clock for rocket crew to ready three stage missile af- ter it's delivery.
 Horn said it might be possible to push human endurance to the limit and cut some time off the interval. But he ruled out so short a time as two weeks, which one reporter suggested.
 One Vanguard official took the position that, while the failure was disappointment, it was one of the things that can be expected in developing a new rocket.
 'sYou know, the percentages were against us because we had three ibeauts. It's like not having an auto accident flor three years," the official said.
 He referred to the first three tests which have been officially described as going off very well.

Strange Light
 Seen Yesterday Over Boring Sea

An unidentified light, very bright, was seen by several people yesterday afternoon over Boring Sea.
 Those who saw it claim it was red and then changed color to bluish shades and appeared to go into Boring Sea.
 Several students leaving school at 400 pm. were among those who saw the light as well as peo- pie who were downtown at that time.
 The light could have been any one of three things: an airplane flare, the navigating lights of a plane, or the evening star which is quite red at times in the sky over Boring Sea.

Extent of Women Groups Aid to
 Hospital Revealed

The recently formed advisory board for the AfMM Hospital met with the administrator, Opal Cat lin, and the medical director, Dr. w. Woodcock, last evening and adopted bylaws by which the group will be governed.
 Although the hospital has been in the community about 40 years, this is the first time the admins trator has presented some of the facts and figures concerning the operation of the hospital by the Women's Division of Christian Service of the Methodist Church.
 Although it was realized that the hospital was not self-sustain- ing, it was surprising to learn that this women's organization last year, for example, sent $96,00O for operation of the institution.
 In addition to this, the board was advised that all the costly re- pairs to the hospital are financed, and all hospital supplies, linens, etc, are furnished by the Wom- en's Division, whose funds come from women's church organiza- tionS all over the States.
 With a staff of 25, the MIMI Hospital is a big and important business in our community.

A four-month tour of the
United States altered the pre-
pared speech made yesterday
by Lady Lula Forbes.
Speaking at a tea Of men,

Speaking Union at the Sui
grave Club. her subject was
Unity on Three Continents"
North America, Europe and
South America.
Thanks to Lady Forbes i'm
pressions from the speaking
tour Of the United States, the
text Of her talk gave way to
many Of these impressions.
She pointed out that she
had spoken before endless
universities in States such as
California. Arizona, Louisiana,
Utah. Illinois. Virginia and
Massachusetts,.
Lady Forbes stressed the
Importance Of exchange stu
dents between the. United
States and Great Britain add
ing that the educational
benefits received by these
young people will aid in the
understanding between the
countries which will deepen
as the generations go on.
She spoke of the recent
strained relations between the
United States and England
due to the Middle East Crisis
as slight feeling of differ
ences' but added that the
links between them were SO
deep that nothing will ever d.
vide the nations as friends.
Lady Forbes referred to the
proposed visit of Queen Eliza
beth. II, as "a browning thing
at this time" She went on to
say that it had been her great
Joy to help prepare the way
for the Queen on this speak
ing tour.
The speaker said that one
thing that impressed her most
was the way Americans re-
ferred to the monarch as 1.-THE
Queen" and not your Queen"
or Queen Elizabeth" She
noticed this especially in
Williamsburg. Va. where she
said the people were SO look
ing forward to the proposed
visit of Queen Elizabeth.
In speaking of the Queen,
Lady Forbes said, "the daugh-
ter is still like her father"
adding that he had never
realized that the people were
more devoted to him than they
had been to any monarch
since King Alfred.
Lady Forbes is the daughter
Of Sir Henry Juta, who was
active in the political life of
South Africa and Speaker of
the House Of Assembly there.
She was married to a British
diplomat who was later his
country's Ambassador to Peru.
Because Of her interest in
the affairs of Peru she re-
ceived its highest civilian dec

who actually made the final
decision. At any rate it's the
only decision thus far in her
reign which can go down as
strictly her own in the history
books.
Most Interested
While on the subject of
young women in high places
let's think about Isabelle Nor
stad, wife of SHAPES newest
commander. If the Air Force
general is just about the most
antisocial of all supreme
commanders thus far, the
generals lady is by far the
most interested in the pos
sibilities offered by her uni
que position. Interested she
may be, but somewhat baffled
as well, for the Office of SUI
preme commander apparent
~ allows for him, and for a
show place of q house, but
there seems to be no such
thing as official and subsidized
status for a first lady, consort,
or what have you.
Nothing much is required Of
the S. C.'s wife and there's
very little where-with-all sup
piled to live UP to the pos
sibilities. What a shame, es-
pecially now that the grande
dame Of is nations is girlish-
ly young and attractive as
well as ready. willing. and able
to lead a merry dance. There's
just no tradition so far.
Mrs. NorStad'S first social
problem concerns central
heating and whether a place
that's big enough for the an
nual SHAPE ball can be

heated even for one evening.
The event may be postponed
until the warmer weather. To
be on the safe side in France
they ought to wait until Au-
gust.
Not So Bad
However, Suez has compli-
Gated our lives a great deal
less than you've heard. We
aren't freezing although we
do have less to burn than
normally. Most buildings are
heated with coal which seems
to reach us from the north
east by trains which don't run
on oil.
There's no problem finding
soap. oil, nor sugar. In fact,
housekeeping is only as diff
cut as ever which is to say
that In France housewives

The only big annnuyance Is
gas rationing but this gives
everyone excuses for all sorts
Of tradinesses. One seems to
feel entitled to take q great
many taxis than one took be-
fore, although before buses and
