ton Of the 81 million Atlas

sile in fiight2
That was a remote possible
ity explored today by the Air
Force and the manufacturer
Iof the 70-foot-tall missile
which exploded into what OBJ
servers said was nothing" less
than four minutes after
launching yesterday.
Instruments aboard the
giant missile sent back data
recorded on thousands Of feet
of tape which may provide
clues as to the cause Of the
explosion.
Win Cady. spokesman for
Convair Division Of General
Dynamics Corp, San Diego
Calf, said cause of the self
destruction might not be
known, if at all, until a thor
ough job Of reading the in
formation had been done.
He said the Atlas does have
q destruction package in it OPP
Grated by radio. but that there
are safeguards on it to prevent
accidental operation.
Some persons speculated
that interference by a radio
signal. possibly from a ''ham'
amateur set, had caused the
explosion.
I'VE could not be 100 per
cent sure in saying that this
did not happen, but it would
have to be an awfully strange
coincidence" Mr.. Cady said.
1.-THE signal would have to
come on the right wave length
and it would have to be the
exact signal. If this happened
there would be some way Of
knowing it from reading the

Mr.. Cady could not estimate
how long it would take to read
the tape.
