lean Rocket Society's 14th
annual meeting at the Shera-
ton-Park. 1t was the first time
that a Soviet rocket scientist
has participated in an Ameri-
can scientific conference.
Prior to Prof. Blagonravov's
remarks-which came in an
swer to questions from the
floor-a Soviet film dealing
with rocket research with an
imals was shown. The Is
minute movie depicted dogs,
rats and mice in nose cone cap
sules during balistic fights.
Z The rockets used reSembled
the old German W. with upper
staging added. An American
engineer said they seemed to
be two-Stagers. According to
the Russians, all these shots
were made between 1851 and
1857.
The hlm was made from foot
age shot during a number Of
flights ranging in maximum al
titude up to 325 miles and in
duration UP to about Is min
utes. The narrator said the
animals experienced six min
uteS or so of weightlesSneSS and
we're subjected on takeof to
about six times the force of
gravity and on re-entry to
about 10 Gs.
DR.. Blagonravov said later
the Soviet Union had conducted
large number Of such ballis-
tic flights involving animals.
His interpreter said:
THE professor can't answer
exactly how many, but the
number runs into several doz-
ems"
The United States has con-
Quoted a relatively small
number OF rocket shots with
animals, mostly with mice, but
a few with small and medium
Sized monkeys. No dogs nave
been used in American rocket
experiments.
: In the Question-and-answer
period, Prof. Blagonravov was
asked about reports of the
selection Of three Russian
"astronaut" for a man-in
space program.
Journalistic Gag Seen
HE thinks this information
Is ungrounded and comes from
Tiewspapermen," the interpre-
ter said. Later, when it was
pointed out that the announce
ment together with pictures Of
the men had been published
in the Soviet magazine Ogonek.
Prof. Blagonravov made a reply
in Russian which was trans
lated:
That means nothing. It's

CuvoIrymen to Replace
Horse Lame Girl Lost

UMATILLA, Greg, Nov. II
(AP). - Men of the Second
Battalion Of the End Armored
Cavalry Division stationed in
Germany have answered the
call.
They read that SuSie's Cap
tain was dead, shot in the side
with a double-barreled shotgun
as he grazed in a pasture.
The gentle stallion, whose
sturdy legs took the lO-year-
old crippled girl to school and
out to play. was gone and a
child was terribly lost. Why
was her friend dead?
The men of the 2nd Battal-
ion didn't know why either
but the captain down to the
private knew the solution.
Susie's mother, Mrs. Laverne
got this telegram at the
modest East Oregon
home:
THE officers and men of the
I'd Battalion of the I'd Armored
Calvary have read Of the tragic
loss Of your Susie Captain. If

Captain with another horse.
Please advise soonest. Regards,
Capt. Theodore Cohen"
Since the gentle Captain was
buried. Mrs. Hams said Susie
had received "oh so many let
ters. some of them containing
money with which to buy an
other horse"
She said a little Minneapolis
girl, Candy Crabtree, wanted
to give Susie her horse.
Mrs. Hams said she thought
and thought-and prayed for
the right thing to do.
Then she wired Capt. Cohen:
Your gift would be wonderful
and gladly accepted. Thank
you"
She said all the money Susie
had received toward another
horse would be turned over to
the Shriners' Hospital at Port
land. An operation in April at
the Portland Hospital is ex-
pected to correct Susie's foot
deformity.

Blood Gift Story
Is Held Confused

HAVANA, Nov. II CAP).-
Official sources said yesterday
the story of an American nurse,
who claimed she gave blood to
Maj. Camilo Cienfuegos, miss
ing Cuban Army commander,
appears to be a confused ver-
sion of a blood donation.
Mrs. Vani L. Maris, a prac-
tical nurse. was quoted by the
Miami News as saying she gave
blood directly to Maj. Cien-
fuegos as he lay in a military
hospital November 5.
Official sources said records
show a Mrs. Vani L. Maris had
donated blood to blood bank
'fn memory of Camilo Cien-
fuegos." They said they could
find nothing to support the
story that she had visited a
military hospital at Camp Lib
.erty near Havana.

United State Delegate Henry
Cabot Lodge. Mr.. Lodge re-
ported yesterday to a private
meeting Of the Is functioning
members Of the present tempo
rary Outer Space Committee.
Last year, just before the
temporary committee was set
up, the Russians insisted that
the number of Communist and
neutral countries together on
it equal the number of Western
allied countries.
Because the Russians did not
get that form Of parity, the
Soviet Union, CzechosloVakia
and Poland all boycotted the
committee. India and. the
United Arab Republic also re-
fused to participate. contending
the committee was meaning
less without Soviet participa-
ton.
Demand Even More
The other Is countries went
ahead without them and even
tually recommended that the
Assembly set up q permanent
committee.
Mr.. Lodge met Mr.. Kuznetsov
first about two weeks ago and
told him the United States
would like for the permanent
committee. to have the same
membership as the full, 18-na-
ton temporary committee.
Diplomats said Mr.. Lodge re-
ported yesterday that in their
second talk, Mr.. Kuznestov
asked for what ne called basic
parity" This was taken to
mean a committee of equal num-
bers of Communist and West

The United States has asked
the government of Panama to
take whatever steps are neces-
sary to prevent any new acts
Of violence against American
citizens now residing in that
country.
Secretary of State Herter
made the request late yester-
day when he told Panamanian
Ambassador Ricardo M. Arias
there are indications of more
anti-United States demonstra-
tions like the one of Novem-
Der 8.
On that day IS persons were
injured when a group Of Pana-
manians sought to plant. their
country's flag in the Canal
Zone.
i Ambassador Arias, who has
been in Panama in connection
with plans to seek election as
President next year, returned
to Washington over the week
end because of the strain in
relations between the two coun-
tries. He conferred with Mr..
Herter for 40 minutes yester-
day.

than the Russians demanded
last year.
Further negotiations are ex-
pected. The West already has
bowed to one Communist de-
mand for parity-on the new

mittee which begins negotia-
tions in Geneva in February
after holding out for several
years.
Rap Laos Visit Again
The Russians last night is
sued their second denunciation
of U. N. Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold's current visit to
Laos, accusing him Of trying to
use the U. N. to cover up "fur-
ther interference Of the West
ern powers in Laos"
Inc soviet statement made
no specific reference to the
United Nations announcement
Sunday that Mr.. Hammarskjold
had ordered Sakari Tuomioja,
Finnish Executive Secretary of
the U. N. Economic Commission
for Europe, to Laos to remain
there as his personal represent
ative for a month after the
Secretary General returns to
New York.
Mr.. Tuomioja's mission off,
cially is to study the Laotians'
need for U. N. aid. Actually he
is being sent in response to the
Iaotian governments plea that
the presence of a prominent
United Nations official would
have a restraining effect on the
Communist rebels who were at
tacking the Laotian army last
summer.

| scenes, ne got Whispered en-
couragement for his own hopes
from publicly proclaimed Nix
onites.
AS he moved farther into the
Northwest in Oregon and
Washington. he found fewer do
or-die Nixon supporters and
many friendly window-shoppers
who up until recently thought
they had only one choice.
All over, he got from walters
and buSboys and elevator oper-
ators expressions Of sympathy
and support.
He heard some Nixon can't
win" talk from party profess
sionals. but discouraged it on
the theory that it is neither
sound political technique nor
sound political morality.
Big Issues Unspecified
Instead, he hopes to make
his bid when the time comes
on the big issues. What these
issues will be he has yet to say.
In a portfolio of Western
speeches, he was cloudy and
high-minded. He did not even
define his own ideas of what
should be done in what he
calls "the new era" that will
begin when President Eisen-
hover steps down, much less
block out differences with the
Vice President. He thinks these
will become apparent as the
campaign develops.
Reporters painting after him
on his whirlwind Pacific Coast
tour came away with the i'm
preston that the Governor is
really relying on the extra
ordinary personal appeal which
carried him home to victory
in his political debut in the
New York gubernatorial race
last year.
He is making some effort to
exchange the glamour boy
image that grew out of that
remarkable campaign last year
for the pitcure of a national
and world statesman. But he
is still much more at home in
a crowd than on a platform.
Watching him work his way
around an airport or a hotel
lobby leaving a trail of dazed
smiles in his wake is to un-
derstand better what he means
when he says that the Re-
publican Party must get closer
to the people.
He was enormously encour-
aged by the crowds which
turned out for him at inauspi.

and smiling Governor suggests
no Hamlet. In his camp there
is none Of the tension that.
accompanies an agonizing con-
sideration of all factors IN q
sticky situation.
In weighing his decision, the
Governor can now add to a
previous statement that the
Vice President could be elected,
the evidence of the recent
swing that Mr.. Nixon has party
support. The fact that he is
plainly going after the nomi-
nation himself indicates he
has other reasons for not re-
garding the Vice President
Nixon the ideal candidate. All
he is trying to do at present, ne
insists is to "stir up discussion"
a goal he easily achieved in the
West.
Guarded Dig
Yesterday at a New York
State AFL-CIO convention, he
said that the peace could not
be won "by banquet banter and
televiSion debate"-a remark
that might seem critical of the
Vice Presidents performance
with Premier Khrushchev in
Moscow.
That visit, of course, started
the Vice Presidents present
ascent in the popularity polls.
The Rockefeller strategists
figure that Mr.. Nixon has
reached plateau, while their
man is currently on the way
up. They think the just COM
pleted visit advanced him along
the route.
