the government as a techni-
cal consultant in public health
programs.
Nevertheless, he added, there
Is acute need for more techni-
clans.

CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla,
Sept. 26 (AP).-Three of Ameri-
ica's most reliable rockets ran
into trouble on opposite sides

At Cape Canaveral. a Shark
intercontinental range guided
missile yesterday crashed and
exploded on launching and a
Nike-Cajun rocket veered of
course. running an attempt to
obtain the first pictures Of q
complete hurricane.
On Florida's West Coast. a
range safety officer destroyed
an Grant Bomarc guided mis-
sile ortly after it was
launched in an attempt to
intercept a drone target. The
Bomarc was fired from the
Santa Rosa test center near
Eglin Air Force base.
The failure Of all three in
one day was a surprise to
missile experts. All have been
thoroughly tested and are con-
sidered among the Nations
most dependable rockets.
The Shark has been fired
more than go times and re-
Gently was declared combat
ready. The Nike-Cajun has
been launched successfully as
a weather research rocket
nearly 100 times. And the
Bomarc has racked up more
than 40 successes in anti-air-
craft weapon tests.
The Shark did a nose dive
into the ground second after it
was launched on a 5,000-mile
test flight. A reliable source
reported that one of two
booster rockets attached to the
missile failed to fire.
The Nike-Cajun carried a
camera in its nose cone to pho

she moved northward about
$40 miles east of here. The
rocket. however, went slightly
awry and dropped its camera
carrying cone OUTSIDE the in
tended impact area.

NORFOLK, Va. Sept. 26

His service record included
a discharge from the Air Force

he ran through a series Of

In midsummer, he found
himself with a wife and three
children to support but no job.
So he took what looked like
a way out and decided to be-
come a hero-a Medal Of

he copied the name Of Pfc.

Leach Wins
Release From
ST. E|izabeths

John d. Leach, who had been
in st. Elizabeths Hospital since
November, 1857. after being
acquitted Of several crimes on
grounds Of insanity, yesterday
won his conditional release
from the hospital.
The release was ordered by
District Court Judge Edward M.
Curran. after hearing argu-
ments by Leach's attorney,
Hugh j. MCGEE, and testimony
by two psychiatrists.
Judge Curran granted the
release on the condition that
Leach report to the doctors at
st. Elizabeths once a week.
Judge Curran said that had
the hospital recommended I'M
conditional release for Leach,
he would have felt called upon
to grant 1t.
The hospital. through its
superintendent. DR.. Winfred
Overholser. had certified that
Leach had sufficiently recov-
cred from his abnormal men,
tai condition to warrant a con-
ditional release.
Hospital Recommendation
The hospital had recon-
mended that Leach be allowed
to make unaccompanied day
visits to the District to seek
employment and that the
length of the visits be gradu-
ally extended at the discretion
of hospital authorities. It fur
ther recommended that Leach
be required to report at the
hospital for interviews with
doctors at such times as the
hospital directed.
When acquitted on insanity
grounds, Leach was reported to
have been suffering from a
"sociopathic personality" and
was said to be potentially dan
Igerous.
Yesterday two st. Elizabeths
Hospital psychiatrists-Dr.
Donald j. Owens and DR..
Mauris M. Platkin testified that
Leach had shown marked i'm
provement during the last year.
Both said they believed he
would not be dangerous to him.
self or others If given condi-
tional release.
DR.. owens testified he be-
lieved that Leach has recovered
from the sociopathic person.
atty. Both psychiatristS, how
ever. said that Leach still needs
psychiatric treatment.
Release Opposed
Leach's conditional release
was opposed by the United
States Attorneys office. Argu-
ments against it were offered
by Principal Assistant United
States Attorney Edward p.
Troxell.
Until the time Of the Leach
trial. a sociopathic personality
was not considered a mental
disease. but is now classified
as such at the hospital.
Leach went to the hospital
after acquittal on insanity
grounds in November, 1857, Of
charges Of concealing knowl-
edge Of a felony committed
by others. receiving stolen
Government property and con-
cealing a stolen vehicle. In
January. 1858. Leach was ac-
quilted Of a robbery charge on
insanity grounds by direction
Of a District Court judge.
Leach, 20, has repeatedly
sought his release from the
hospital since being committed.
