Is Right Out of Fiction

oxygen system and is fully
pressurized, the pressure suit
itself is a safety backup system.
The suit always contains just
under a pound of pressure
because Of the oxygen cooling
and respiratory system.
Should the capsule ever
decompreSS, the astronaut has
two gauges to warn him. One
is on the cabin instrument
panel, the other a small pres
sure gauge on the forearm of
the suit.
A loss Of too much pressure,
and the suit automatically is
pressurized. The astronaut also
can trigger the suit system by
touching a button on one side
Of his helmet.
The hands of the suit are
curved with ribbed material,
with the exception of the left
middle finger. Under pressuri-
zation. this finger remains
straight so that the astronaut
can push instrument buttonN.
Medical Data Transmitted
The m e dical telemetering
system is a round cannon-plug
connection with 20 possible in
puts situated on the right
thigh. Temperature, respira-
ton and electrocardiograms
are transmitted here.
The astronaut receives oxy-
gen through a cord at the waist.
One hundred per cent oxygen
flows throughout the suit to
cool it, then circulates in the
helmet. Carbon dioxide is
purged from the suit through
a helmet connection.
Temperatures inside the suit
can be controlled at 80 de-
grees, despite the intense heat
during re-entry into the earth's
atmosphere.
And while he didn't use it on
the first trip. the astronaut
had available 5000 calories of
non-residue food and 6 pounds
Of water, contained in two flat
bottles with extendable tubes.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla,
May 5 CAP) When Astronaut
Alan B. Shepard, jr., dressed in
his glittering pressure suit.
climbed into the Mercury cap
Sule today for his manned
space flight, he looked like a
fiction writer's dream of a man
from another planet.
The 20-pound suit is a marvel
of engineering. But within a
few years it will be as outmoded
as a model-T Ford.
The suit is adequate for
what we want to do" said 1t.
Comdr. Walter Schirra, one of
the seven astronauts.
Comdr. Schirra, who helped
develop the pressure suit dur
ing the long months of training
for the astronautS, says, IT'S
not designed to walk around
the moon or change vehicles in
space or put patches on rocket
ships. The requirements of the
Mercury capsule are such that
we are in a contour couch or
use part of the couch to pro-
tect U.S."
Designed by Task Group
The original model was de-
signed by the National Aero
nautics and Space Adminlstra-
tion's space task group. How
ever, during the months Of
testing the suit by the astro-
nautS, many new suggestions,
changes and ideas evolved.
Consequently. the B. F. Good
rich Co. manufactured a new
model with 100 notifications.
A main criticism of the suit
was that when it was at its
full pressure of about 5 to 5l2
pounds per square foot, it
provided little maneuverability
With the addition of five
"ribs"-at the shoulders, elbows
and knees-the astronaut now
can bend to almost 80 degrees.
The fiberglass helmet, with
its broad face mask. weighs 4 y
pounds. 1t was closed during
the launching and re-entry.

Europe Well Pleased
By Shepord's Triumph

LONDON, May 5 (AP) Mil
lions of Europeans crowded
around their radios today to
listen as Alan B. Shepard, jr.,
made his rocketing journey to
the threshold of space and back.
The United States achieve
ment made headlines and
aroused admiration throughout
Western Europe-even though
the edge was taken off the
flight by Russian Yuri Gaga-
rims gloral orbit three weeks
ago.
Radio stations broke into
their scheduled programs with
a direct relay from the United
States that captured the ten
sion and excitement of the final
countdown and blastoff at Cape
Canaveral. In Japan radio and
TV programs were interrupted
to announce the feat, from
launching to landing.
Americas frank and open
handling of its first manned
space flight was contrasted
favorably with the secrecy sur
rounding the Gagarin take

Soviet Union.
1T was a great privilege to
be allowed to participate in
Shepard's flight" said Ken

1t took Is minutes for the
convoy, including Comdr.
Shepard's transfer van, to go
to Pad S, where the tall Red
stone rocket stood Graded in
its gantry tower. At the site.
Comdr. Shepard was briefed by
Col. Glenn on conditions In the
capsule and the control block
house, respectively.
He then stepped into an ele-
vator and was carried nearly
100 feet to Level g." where ac-
cess to the space capsule is OBJ
tanned. He was in the capsule,
beginning his instrument
checks by $50 am.
Throughout the night. tech
nicians had busted themselves
at the gantry tower, getting the
rocket ready for flight.
Site Cleared
AS Comdr. Shepard arrived
at the tower, there were about
l25 people at the pad, every
one Of them essential to the
mission.
Shortly after 6 o'clock, a
cleanup hold" was ordered.
The purpose of this was to
clear away from the area those
persons whose had been COM
pleted and in general to get
ready for the vital hours lead
ing to ignition.
The two back-up astronauts,
Col. Glenn and Capt. Grissom,
returned to the Mercury con-
troll center, 5000 feet from the
launching pad, and informed
project director Robert R. Gill
ruth that everything seemed
"A-OK and routine"
They reported that the cap
sule hatch cover had been
sealed at 7:l0 am.
At 1880. deep-throated sirens
blew long warning blasts for
all personnel to clear the pad
area. From this moment on,
Comdr. Shepard was one of the
loneliest men in the world.
Team Effort
Although attention was To-
cused on Comdr. Shepard as
the first American to venture
into space. today's shot was a
team effort Of staggering pro-
portions. More than 10000
persons were engaged in one
way or another here and at
sea in aSSuring-as far as as
surance can be obtained-that
his ride would be a safe and
comfortable one.
Each Of the astronauts also
had their job to do. Col. Glenn
and Capt. Grissom, the alter
mates for this exercise, re-
manned in close contact with
Comdr. Shepard as long as
possible and then went back to
the control center in an ad-
visory capacity.
Capt. Gordon Cooper's job
was to remain in the block
house at the launching site and
continue keeping Comdr. Shep-
ard informed Of developments
Mai. Donald K. Slayton had
a parallel job to Capt. Cooper'S
at the Mercury control center
Maj. Slayton's job was to start
talking to the pilot from the
moment Of lift-off.
The other two astronauts

Letters

Continued from Page ~
is no problem, however, since
these are two of our natural
resources in abundant supply
witness the Bishops State
ment from 1859 also.
There is another seed
some call it the patriotic seed
which is also a very stub
born one. It's been rather DOR
mant but when it flowers it
produces a very pleasant
aroma which tends to over
come the fertilizer. Well this
little varmint really is stub
born. It's springing up here
and there and threatening
to choke off that weed. AS a
result the harvesters have be-
come very alarmed.
REALIZING THAT THEIR
weed stirS this dormant seed
into activity they devised a
very simple plan to combat it.
Just get as many people as
they can to spread the word
that the weed isn't there at
all-it's over in Asia, or At
RIGA or Latin America-any
place else but here. Ergo,
since it isn't here let's destroy
that patriotic seed wherever
it springs up; there's really
no need for it.
OF COURSE THE LATIN
Americans, Asians and Afric-
ans might resent the implica-
ton that they are stupid
enough to cultivate that weed
unlike the brilliant North
Americans. So they resent it.
Who cares? We have to get
the people to believe that our
seed of Communism isn't
growing here. That's the i'm
portant thing as far as the
harvesters are concerned. 1t
just might work. There's still
a good supply of that apathy
and Indifference.
ACTUALLY TO GET back
to the opening paragraph, the
similarity is no surprise. Any
one who studies the problem
is bound to come up with the
same solution. You can rest
assured that the Bishops have
studied the problem and II
would be wise for others to do
the same.

Rabbi Tells What
Jews Expect OF Council

NOTRE DAME, Ind. ~ Jews
look upon the coming Roman
Catholic Ecumenical Council
with "eager anticipation" a
rabbi says in the December 9
issue of AVE MARIA, nation
al Catholic weekly magazine
published here.
This hopeful attitude is in
direct contradiction to Jewish
feelings toward previous coun-
ellis, writes Rabbi Arthur Gil
bert in an article entitled "A
Jew Looks at the Ecumenical
Council" Jews once feared
such councils as "the seed
bed from which the most vic
ious and virulent forms Of an
ti-Semitism were able to grow
and flourish" he declares.
But recent Popes have estab-
lished a profounder sense of
brotherhood with Jews, he
says.
RABBI GILBERT, staff con-
sultant to The National Con-
ference of Christians and
Jews project on Religious
Freedom and Public Affairs,
is an authority on Jewish
Catholic relations.
Among actions Jews hope to
see come from the Second
Vatican Council, according to
Rabbi Gilbert, is "a clear state.

ism, defining the role of IS
