nounced that the shot, which
had been sc h eduled for
Wednesday, "iS scheduled no
earlier than Saturday, January
81. This timing will give en-
gineers and technicians time to
correct their technical diff
culties encountered in the
spacecraft environmental con-
troll system during pre-launch
preparations"
The NASA announcement
came after it was learned from
reliable sources that the shot
had been postponed first until
Thursday and then until Sat-
urday because of the difficulty.
Trouble in Regulator
Earlier, NASA officials de-
clined comment on the reported
delay because they said they
had never officially announced
a date for the firing.
The sources reported the
trouble was in a regulator in a
system which feeds oxygen to
the astronaut's pressurized space
suit.
Technicians believe dust par
ticles are preventing two parts
Of q valve from closing COM
pletely, thus causing q leak.
The sources said the valve
must be pulled out, tested and
either repaired or replaced.
Then a complete simulated mis-
sion, without Col. Glenn, must
be flown.
Delayed From December
The launching originally had
been scheduled for mid-Decem-
ber in an attempt to have the
United States orbit a man dur
ing 1861. Then it was put off
until January 16.
Atlas booster problems re-
suited in another weeks delay,
and a further days postpone
ment had placed the launching
on Wednesday.
Col. Glenn had been sched-
uled to make only one more
simulated orbit flight in a
grounded capsule and then 60
into a tapering off period.
Just what this latest post
ponement would do to his
training program was not i'm
mediately learned.

Trust Technique
Now Dressed Up,
FTC Head Says

DETROIT, Mar. II (AP.-
Chairman Paul Rand Dixon of
the Federal Trade Commission
said today certain joint ven
lures involving giant corpora
tions represent "the old trust
technique in modern dress"
Mr.. Dixon said these ventures
raise competitive problems
which must be dealt with by
the FTC before a dangerous
monopoly threat develops.
In the speech prepared for
the Economic Club of Detroit,
Mr.. Dixon implied that he be-
lieves some corporations use
joint ventures to skirt the anti
trust laws.
Describing joint ventures as
the pooling by two or more
corporations of financial re-
sources and skillS to engage in
a specific activity, often re-
lated to their principal business,
Mr.. Dixon said:
If two firms, each with a
sizable share of the market for
a commodity, pool this business
into a joint venture, the effect
for all practical purposes-is
similar to that of a merger. 1t
is really the old trust tech
nique in modern dress. The
damage to competition is clear
cut and, if possible, the move
should be quickly halted"

PHOENIX, Ariz,, Mar. 12.-
New oral contraceptive drugs
have Unexpectedly opened a
road to the possible prevention
of cancer by the use of hor-
moneS.
DR.. Gregory Pincus, whose
work with the new drugs has
given them a nickname Of "lit-
tie Pincus pills." announced
the surprise effect of the drugs
here at the American Cancer
Society's annual seminar for
the press.
Studying 800 women who
volunteered to use the drugs,
DR.. Pincus discovered that pap
smears reveal possible cancer
OF the cervix in only two-tenths
Of one per cent. Earlier studies
Of women not taking the drugs
showed suspicious smears in 3.3
per cent.
More Tests Planned
Thousands of women are now
being organized to test the
drugs further to see If the first
discovery holds true or was a
statistical accident.
DR.. Pincus is director Of the
Worcester Foundation for Ex-
perimental Biology in Shrews-
bury, Mass. The contraceptive
drugs are a combination of a
progesterone type compound
and estrogen. Progesterone is
the so-called pregnancy hor-
none" and estrogen the "heat
hormone."
Both are produced by the
ovaries.
Recently hormone imbalances
have more and more been
linked to several kinds of
cancer.
Today, DR.. Sheldon c. Som
mers, of the Scripps Memorial
Hospital in LaJolla, Calf, an
nounced a further link. His
10-year study of the corpses of
cancer victims shows grandular
malfunctions are closely asso-
ciated with cancer Of the breast,
prostate, and female lungs.
Further, they may combine
with environmental exposure to
irritants to cause cancer Of the
stomach and cancer Of the
male lung.

male lung cancer was found in
men who not only smoked a lot

Questions and Answers

For a surprise anniversary

brown! Our rug is rose and
the walls, to date, are green.
I must keep the rug but can
change the walls. I will
have new draperies and both
a large and a wing chair re-
covered. What colors do you
suggest? Somehow, I'm afraid
of too much beige. I want
a serene looking room.
Answer: I'd plan the wall
and woodwork color around
the rug, that is a rose but
so pale, it is almost white.
For the draperies and a slip
cover for the wing chair, use
a rather small scale print in
a white-rose ground with
rose, brown and fresh spring
green in the design. Cover
the second chair in a fresh
spring green.
Question: Our master
bathroom has off white
walls, white fixtures and sea-
foam green ceramic tile. We
would like suggestions for &C

Black Returns to Home Decor
xs.as.
BY BETTY PEPIS
Contributing Writer

thUtUbttu9 WIltef
One OF the more striking
revivals Of the current sea-
son is a trend toward the use
OF black in decorating. This
style is reminiscent of the
late twenties when decora-
tors were even playing with
the idea Of all-black rooms
walls, upholstery, etc., pos
Sibly as a reaction to the all
white rooms that were popu-
lar earlier in that same
decade.
Today's version of this
fashion is somewhat more
restrained, and because of
this, easier to take. The ad-
dition Of brilliant color to
our rooms is another leaven-
ing agent that keeps this
high fashion interest in black
from being depressing.
How to handle black with
taste was nicely demon
strated by decorator Blair
Catterton in a recent series
OF model rooms. In a small
dining room, shiny black cot
ton, polka dotted with white,
looked positively gay when
used for curtains and uphol-
stery against white walls and
floors. A magenta tablecloth
down to the floor supplied
the necessary surprise shock
er. In other settings, Mr..
Catterton used severe black
for upholstering arm chairs
"a quilted shiny cotton piped
in white) and on the walls
"a subdued floral print on
black again shiny.
Black Floors
Other decorators, too, are
using black. Recent usages
have included the blackening
Of floors. Plain wood par
quet darkened to an inky
tone can lend distinction to
decor and prove a perfect
background for a small
bright area rug. Needlepoint
rugs with a multicolor pat
tern can be pleasantly sub
due when worked on a black
ground and are putting in
renewed appearances in Styl-
ish period rooms. Slate is an
other material darkening the
underfoot picture.
Black felt was used by a
well-known photographer to
cover the walls of his living
room. 1t stopped at the chair
rail and the lower portion of
the wall was painted dead
white. Acting as a transit
ton between these two
strongly contrasting areas
was a Spanish type of braid
woven of black, gold and sill
