Rocket Passes
IFS Final Test

A crucial trial rocket in the
Mercury man-in-Space series
was launched from Cape Ca
naveral. Fla, at 1890 pm.
(EST) today.
Shortly afterward, the Ma
tional Aeronautic and Space
Administration announced that
the shot was apparently a
complete success.
"If the results turn out to be
as good as they look now, this
will be the last Redstone before
q man goes up," a NASA
spokesman said shortly before
/ o'clock.
The shot involved a Redstone
booster rocket carrying a
dummy Mercury space capsule.
Rocket and capsule stayed to-
gether throughout the flight,
which lasted about nine min
uteS. There was no attempt TO
separate the capsule from the
booster.
The principal purpose of the
shot was to correct an "over-
performance" noted in the Red
stone booster that carried Ham,
the chimpanzee on his epochal
ride January 81.
"Today's flight was nominal
in every respect" NASA said.
NASA reported that the
booster climbed to a peak alti-
tude Of about lis miles and
sped 31l miles southeast be-
fore splashing into the Attain
tic Ocean. Its top speed was
5.110 miles an hour, NASA
said. Recovery Of the rocket

Why They Volunteer
by LYDIA RlCkFORD

Z
Plan a mass meeting of all the
women volunteers in the L n e d
States and you'd have to rent sew
eral hundred football stadiums.
You'd find enough talent, too to
run a king-size corporation-and
still have ability left over. You
can find women who fill every
post from switchboard operator to
chairman of the board.
Women talk. walk, plan. collect.
create. cook. impiore. phone. enlist.
write, solicit for hundreds of
causes that couldn't exist without
their efforts.
Is volunteering a satisfying way
of life for the bazaar chairman.
the door bell ringer. the hospital
worker. the poster designer. the
ticket seller?
For some it's therapy. for others
needed. Bat for a much smaller
number it's a seemingly enlets
round of frenzied and inconcmsive
activity.
Why They DO IL
Women workers point out what
they like about volunteer work:
There's its fleXibility. IF the
children have mumps. don't feel
guilty about canceling. l couldn't
do that with paid job" explains
one woman.
Others like the freedom of choice
which | wouldn't get if | worked

agencies in which I'm most inter
ested."

activities are not conflicting with
their husbands careers. "If I'd

would have subconsciously resen-
ted my success. He has 10 be top

Christmas holidays marked the
opening of the. first group Of
twenty-five houses in Dominican
Republic for the protection of the
country's unwed mothers and
their children.
The program is one more part
of the sweeping social reforms
for Dominican residents, and is
being sponsored entirely by pri-
vate donation rather than by the
Dominican Republic. Head of
the project is the wife Of Rafael
ITrujillo-Doia Maria.
Private contributions total in
the thousands to date, and in
clude two donations by Florida
residents, Harry Lazzo Of Miami,
and Bradley Oldham Of Sanford.
At the ceremonies which pro-
vided house keys to the first
groups of deserted mothers,
Doiia Maria M. de Trujillo stated
the desire that "not only my
friends and fellow citizens, but
every person of notable humane
tartan instincts take part in this
project, and help to make happy
and comfortable the many unfor-
tunate women who have known
nothing but misery and pain"
Deserted mothers and their
children receive the keys to a
new house, completely furnished
and stocked with food. The
houses are owned by the sponsor
ing philanthropic group; there
fore, there is no down payment,
and the women who live in them
pay no rent as long as they fol-
low the rules set up by the spon-
soring women's society in Do

promising $4,000 per week.
However, once they were away

what they earn"
This came out to 25c per
subscription. In addition, Mar
tin assessed exhorbitant fines:
for failure to place hotel room
key on his desk when they
went to work, $4,000; a hair
style not to his liking, $500;
discussion of their mistreat-

Since Martin held the key
to their rooms, the three girls

it impossible to quit and re-
turn to their homes.
The girls also charged that
