Doctors Report
Tiny Travellers
Were Only Mod
BY WILLIAM HINES
star Science Writer

Americas space monkeys,
T-pound Able and 1-pound
Baker, survived the ordeal Of
their trip through space last
Thursday amazingly well.
That was the verdict of doc
tors who reported yesterday on
the Army and Navy medical
experiments conducted for the
National Aeronautics and Space
Administration aboard q Jupi-
ter rocket.
Speaking to about 100 news
men in the NASA auditorium,
Navy Capt. Ashton Graybiel
summed it up in these words:
"The physiological changes
throughout the flight were ex-
traordinarily small. This also
applied to changes in the
monkeys environment (their
Theoretically space cap
sules)."
Displaying q long roll Of
tape with electronic squiggles
on it, DR.. Graybiel said the
monkeys pulse and respiration
rates-sure signs of stress
showed only small deviation
from the normal. Sharpest de-
viations came during the rapid
showdown period when the
Jupiter nose cone plunged back
into the atmosphere.
Bodies Became Heavy
At this point in the fight,
for something less than a Sec
ond, the two animals absorbed
q force equal to 80 times, that
of gravity. In terms of how
the monkeys must have felt,
this means that Able seemed
to herself to be weighing more
than $50 pounds. while Baker
seemed to weigh almost 40.
Despite the ordeal Of three
minutes powered flight. nine
minutes of "weightlessness'
and three minutes more of re-
entry, the monkeys were un-
scathed when the 3.30O-pound
Jupiter nose cone was brought
aboard the Navy Rescue Tug
KiOwa.
Mai. Gerald Champlin said
the only casualty Of the whole
operation was when Able suf-
fered q scratch on her fore
head while being transferred
from one cage to another en-
route home.
I'VE knew their condition
before we opened the cap
sules," Mai. Champlin, medical
officer at Redstone Arsenal,
Huntsville, Ala, said. I'VE had
instruments working. But even
so we expected them to have
found it q little rough and
rugged.
They didn't, though. They
were just a little bit mad"

Hint Of Compromise
Is Heard at Geneva
West Would
Deal With
Sore Points
BY CROSBY s. MOVES


European Correspondent Of The star
GENEVA. May 30.-The first
public hints Of a compromise
on Berlin emerged during to-
days session of the foreign
ministers conference.
The West offered to break the
deadlock by leaving divided
Berlin as it is and dealing with
specific sore points-particu-
larry the Soviet complaint that
West Berlin is q hotbed Of
anti Communist activity.
The Russians indicated they
welcomed the Western over
ture. although Foreign Minister
Andrei Gromyko only a short
time before had denounced
earlier Western proposals to
unite the divided city as sun
acceptable from beginning to
end"
Important Session
Today's meeting - perhaps
the last public one for several
days-adds up to by far the
most important open session
Of the conference so far. It
marked the first time the min
listers have laid aside their
far-ranging package plan"
and addressed themselves
squarely to their central prob
lem.
On the Russian side, the
result was not particularly
enlightening.
Mr.. Gromyko, in the course
Of his rather uninspired blast
against the allied occupation of
West Berlin did express Mos
cows desire to negotiate a
reasonable understanding. He
also came up with one addi-
tional proposal for a five-power
commission, including East
Germans, to supervise the OBJ
servance of the status of the
free city" Of West Berlin. But
neither Mr.. Gromyko nor any,
one else at this point can have
many illusions that the Russian
idea of a demilitarized free city
has any prospects of being &C
cepted by the West.
Lloyd Makes Offer
BY far the more interesting
speech Of the afternoon was
British Foreign Secretary Sell
wyn Lloyd's answer to Mr..
Gromyko. What Mr.. Lloyd had
to say in fact reflected the
course of the private talks be-
tween the ministers here and
indicated the direction in which
progress toward an agreement
on Berlin may be possible.
Three times in the course of
his speech Mr.. Lloyd repeated
his basic idea:
q. If Mr.. Gromyko will
not accept our plan for the
identification Of Berlin and we
cannot accept his plan for
what is called demilitarized
free city, then surely the sensi-
bic way to approach this mat
ter is to say that the path
along which progress should
be made is to leave the present
situation basically as it is and
see whether or not we can i'm
prove it in certain respects"
FOur-POwer Garrison Urged
This is in fact the whole
sum of the Geneva exercise at
this point. 1t is known from
Russian sources that in the
private talks Mr.. Gromyko has
by no means limited himself
