By HOWARD BENEDICT

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla, LR - The United States pushed ahead with plans for another stab at space today while still seeking the reason for the failure of it's biggest moon rocket.
 In about two weeks an attempt will be made to propel a payload toward the vicinity of the planet Venus and into orbit about the sun. The launching vehicle will be a Thor-Able rocket.
 The nations last space effort ended in disappointment Thanks giving Day when a mammoth Atlas-Able rocket fizzled shortly after it was fired in an attempt to put the first satellite into orbit around the moon.
 The Atlas-Able, 10 stories high and the most powerful rocket ever assembled by this country, was on its maiden flight. It crashed hun dreds of miles out in the Atlantic Ocean after it's second stage failed to ignite.

Berry-Less Feast Spread On White House Table

WASHINGTON, LR - The Els enhowers had a cranberry-less Thanksgiving dinner. Applesauce was served instead.
 That word came from actress Rosalind Russell and her hus- band, Producer Frederick Bris- son, who dined with the President and his family at the White House.
 Secretary of Welfare Arthur s. Flemming and his family had government-approved cranberries with their holiday dinner. Flem- ming touched off a cranberry scare earlier this month when he reported some berries were tainted by a weed killer which had produced cancer in rats.

Ousted JUN. Officer Suicide in IN. Y.

NEW YORK, LR - Paul Bang Jensen, 30, deposed United Ma tions official who had been miss ing since Monday, was found dead Thursday in Queens Park. Police called it "an obvious case of suicide"
 The body of Bang-Jensen, dis missed from the JUN. in con- troversy over releasing the names of Hungarian refugees, was found by man walking his dog along the bridle path of Alley Pond Park.
 A .25-caliber automatic was in his right hand. He died of a bull let wound in the right side of his head. Pilice said note in his possession was identified by handwriting experts as that of the Danish national.
 Authorities said the body had been in the wooded area more than "A hours. This left about AS hours of Bang-Jensen's time un- accounted for after his disappear ance. He was not seen alive after leaving his home Monday at Lake Success on Long Island - about two miles from where he was found.
 Bang-Jensen, former senior po- litical officer at the U. N, was fired from his $17,000-a-year po- sition in July, 1858. He created an international furor for refus- ing to divulge the names of 01 Hungarian refugees who had given secret testimony before the U. N. Committee on Hungary.
 Bang-Jensen said he had prom ised to keep the names secret to protect the refugees families from possible Communist repris- als. The sealed list of names was burned on the roof of the U N- building in the presence of off, cialS.
 Bang-Jensen first was sus- pended from his U. N post, ac- cused of insubordination, and then discharged by U. N. Secre- ary-General Dag Hammarskjold.

Football Titles
BY the Associated Press

Four college conferences
which take pride in their close
and unpredictable football
competition, bring their title
races right down to the wire
tomorrow
The Thanksgiving Day
games, dwindling in impor-
tance and number in recent
years. likely will be deciding
factors in the Ivy League,
Southern Conference, Missouri
Valley and Southwest Confer
ence championships, and in
the naming of one team for a
major New Years Day bowl
game.
If Texas, rated the No. 4
team in the Nation in the
latest Associated Press poll,
can win from Texas AIM to-
they'll share the
Southwest title with Arkansas
and automatically get the bid
to play unbeaten Syracuse in
the Cotton Bowl.
Texas Christian also can tie
for the championship by beat
ing Southern Methodist Sat-
urday. but under conference
procedure Texas gets first call
and Arkansas second in event
of a tie. So TCU also has ac-
cepted a bid to play in the
Bluebonnet Bowl at Houston,
December 10. and Arkansas has
agreed to play in the Gator
Bowl January 2, unless it takes
the undisputed title.
Penn Meets Old Rival
In the Ivy League, Pennsyl-
vania can complete an amazing
climb from its non-winning
seasons Of recent years to the
top of the heap by beating its
old rival Cornell. Penn is 5-1
in the league standing and
Dartmouth, last years cham
pion, is SILL. A Penn-Cornell
tie would leave them dead
locked, but the Quakers are ex-
pected to go all out for a vic
tory over a team that has split
even in six Ivy games.
The Missouri Valley Confer
ence, like the Southwest, could
wind up in a three-way tie
and it appears more likely,
North Texas State and Houston
have completed conference
competition with 81 records.
Tulsa can join them by beating

GRID COACH QUITS UNEXPECTEDLY
GWWon't BeinHurry
To Replace Sherman
BY GEORGE HUBER
Star Stan Writer

No immediate decision is
planned on a successor to
Eugene (Bo) Sherman as head
football coach at George Wash
ington.
Sherman resigned unexpect-
edly yesterday after eight
years as head coach at the
downtown school.
1t is possible that his replace
ment will not be named until
after the NCAA convention in
New York early in January.
However, that would mean the
loss Of six valuable weeks in
the mid-winter scramble for
high school talent and CIV has
a difficult enough time with re-
cruiting as 1t is. Any time lost
now would be hard to make up.
Meanwhile, it seems definite
that Sherman's decision to re-
sign was not the result of pres
sure, either from university Of
f1cialS or alumni groups even
though the football record of
one victory and eight defeats
this last season was the worst
in the schools history. In
eight years under Sherman the
Colonials won 80 games, lost SO
and had three ties.
Personal Reasons
Sherman said his reasons
were personal" and that it was
solely my decision. He added,
Il was very happy in my work
at the university and hated to
do this"
Bob Faris, director of ath-
letics at CIV, declared that
Sherman's resignation came as
a complete surprise to the uni
versity, and. that there had
been no hint to Sherman from
anyone in the administration
that his resignation would be
acceptable.
That there was no alumni
pressure on the school to get
rid of Sherman was emphasized
by Hal Kiesel, president of the
CIV Letterman Club, and Tad
Lindner, president of Colonials,
