that can be said about that
Vienna Congress" is that a
"gentlemen's agreement" was
reached.
How long this agreement
can last can be judged only
in terms of days, weeks and
possibly months. The most
optimistic assessment is that
it may last until the German
general elections this fall
when the West German vot-
ers will decide whether and
with what majority the Ade-
nauer Christian Socialist
Party will remain in power.
The estimates here are that
the IS = year old German
Chancellor will be returned
overwhelmingly. 1t is after
this election, which is being
watched by Moscow and her
satellites with greater inter-
est than by Washington,
London and Paris, that the
fate of the Vienna gentle

cided.
In the meantime there are
plenty of areas, it is said by

in his talks with De Gaulle

A number of Negro track
stars - including world record

night at Houston, Tex, in

Earlier in the day the Ma
tional Association for the
Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie entered the Freedom Ride
movement at Jackson by ask
ing Federal District Court to
protect the riders from police
interference.
Petition Is Filed
A petition filed by Mrs. Con-
stance Baker Motley and chief
NAACP attorney Thurgood
Marshall of New York, and
r. Jess Brown of Jackson and
VickSburg, Miss, asked that a
three-judge Federal court con-
slider the request for protection
against arrest of riders. =
The move came after the ar
rest of 98 Freedom Riders in
jackson and aligned the
NAACP openly with the Con-
gress of Racial Equality in its
test of segregation laws.
At st. Louis, Charles R.
Oldham, national chairman of
CORE, said the group plans to
send Is to 20 more riders from
st. Louis to the Mississippi
capital in about 10 days.
In Ithaca, N. Y, a group
sponsoring some of the riders
said all the white persons held
in city Jail at Jackson would
join in a hunger strike on
Monday unless the Federal
Government takes some action
by then. Eight of the riders
in the jail already are fasting.
Appeal to President
The plan for other prisoners
to refuse food was reported
by the Freedom Walk Com
mittee of Ithaca in kilograms
sent to President Kennedy, At
torney General Robert Ken
nedy and Everett Hutchinson,
director of the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
At the same time the coin
mittee said five more Cornell
University students planned to
leave Monday to take part in
the campaign to desegregate
bus, railroad and air terminals
in the deep South. Three Cor
nell graduate students were re-
leased from Jail in Jackson
after serving 10 days and pay
ing $160 in fines each.
Indications were any new
riders would stay away from
Alabama. United States Dis
trict Judge Frank M. johnson,
jr. at Montgomery refused to
set aside his temporary re-
straining order foroidding the
sponsoring of Freedom rides in
that State.

Explorer VIII
Sent Vast Data
0nIOnOsphere
BY WILLIAM HINES
star Science Writer


An American satellite has
given science a great mass of
new information about the
mysterious region of electrical
ly-charged air called the iono-
sphere.
In fact, experts are still wad-
ing through the mass of data
collected in 54 days late last
year by Explorer VIII, an or
bitter launched November 3
by the civilian Space Agency.
A partial report on the satel-
lite's findings was given yester-
day.
Revolutionary Procedure
Explorer VIII was "95 per
cent successful" according to
Robert Bourdeau, ionospheric
studies specialist at Goddard
Space Flight Center in Green
belt, Md. It sampled the iono-
sphere for evidence of its elec-
trical and chemical makeup
and gave a better picture of
"cosmic dust" distribution than
ever had been obtained before.
DR.. John F.. Clark, chief of the
of the geophysics program for
the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, said the
satellite was revolutionary in
the way it collected and re-
ported its data.
All earlier ionoSphere meas
urements by satellites have
been of the radio propaga-
ton" method, with which facts
are inferred from the way radio
waves behave. This satellite
used direct measurement meth
ods, he explained.
In Meteor Shower
One of the satellites most in
teresting findings came largely
as a matter of luck, NASA
scientists said. 1t was launched
just in time for a large meteor
shower, and collected much
data on tiny. fast-moving
specks known as micrometeor-
ties.
Similar information had been
gathered a year earlier by Van
guard III, and the combined
data provides several thousand
impact events while the
total number of impact events
of all previous measurements
made by rockets and satellites
is considerably less than TO-
000," Wesley M. Alexander, mi
crometeorite specialist at God
dard, said.
Envelope of Particles
1t had long been suspected
that satellites orbiting in the
ionosphere at medium attitudes
collect an envelope of charged
particles around them. Explorer
VIII confirmed this and meas
ured the size of the envelope. 1t
is about twice the size of the
satellite, NASA scientists said.
The orbiter'S altitude varied
from 275 to 1.450 miles during
the period - November 3 to De-
cember 27- when it was broad
casting data. 1t is still in orbit
but its batteries wore out after
81 days.
In that period the satellite
radioed to earth 500 bits" of
information every second. This
amounts to about 2.3 billion
separate pieces of data. Only
about Is per cent of the cleo
tronic tapes filled by Explorer
VIII have been analyzed to
date.
New Space Technology
The satellite advanced space
technology on two fronts, NASA
scientists said. One had to do
with vacuum tubes and one
with the positioning of space
craft.
The vacuum tubes used in
VIII had no hermet-
ically sealed glass body around |
them, but used the partial vac
uum ofouter space instead. No
heated filament was necessary
as an electron-producer such as
exists in a television picture
tube because electronS are rel
atively plentiful at orbital al
titudeS.
