Lunar Orbit 7 echnique
Seen Winning Dispute

and his Superiors in the space
agency have repeatedly referred
to the LOR choice as a definite
Government decision, and there
has been virtually no discussion
of any other method within
NASA in the last three or four
months.
Presidential Science Adviser
jerome B. Wiesner and several
of his aides are known to OPP
pose LOR. DR., Wiesner engaged
in a public dispute last month
with DIR. Wernher Won Braun in
President Kennedy's presence
during an inspection tour Of
the Marshall Space Flight
Center, Huntsville, Ala.
In the view of the Wiesner
group, LOR's present status is
simply one of three lunar land
ing techniqueS now under dis
cussion. The other are earth
orbit rendezvous, in which two
C-5s are brought together 100
miles or so above the earth,
and direct ascent, in which a
Super-rocket called Nova would
land a manned space craft on
the moon without any inter-
mediate step.
NASA, which was given the
job of getting men to the moon
in this decade, has hardly
dignified these other two meth
DDS with SO much as lip serv-
ice since the LOR decision was
made. In the Voice of America
interview, Mr.. Low was clearly
following the NASA line, even
though it placed him in direct
public conflict with the Wiesner
office.
Il am confident the final
decision will be for LOR," Mr..
Low said. This decision will be
made in a matter of days or
weeks.
1T would take a year or
two years longer to get men to
the moon if we settled on either
of the other approaches"
The original plan for getting
to the moon was by direct as
cent with the Nova. 1t then
became apparent that this
super-rocket would not be
ready for manned flight in the
1905, and attention turned to
earth orbit rendezvous early
this year.
LOR was first discussed early
this summer in testimony be-
fore Congress, and was an
nounced as NASA's choice in
July. Many observers ex-
pressed belief at that time that
NASA had chosen LOR, not
because it was especially de-
sirable, but because it offered
the only possible chance of
meeting President Kennedy's
goal of men on the moon "in
this decade"
Blind Alley" Denied
DR.. Wiesner's group report
edly regards LOR as a blind
alley as far as manned space
flight is concerned, leading to
the moon but no farther.
In the interview, Mr.. Low
torpedoed this point Of view
by saying he believes the plan
etary equivalent of LOR may
we'll turn out to be the most
attractive method of exploring
the solar system in the years
after 1870.
Although he did not go into
detail, Mr.. Low apparently
envisioned a nuclear-powered
rocket propelling a space craft
into orbit around a planet such
as Mars, and dropping a bug"
to the planets surface with an
exploration crew. This bug
would then propel itself back
into Mars orbit, hook up with
the main space craft and
transfer its crew for the trip
home.

Politicians outnumbered the vot-

his running mates kicked off their
1862 reelection bid yesterday in
vote-scarce but rain-aplenty Gar
rett County.
There we're. to be sure. some
voters. They we're huddled around
pot-bellied stoves in the occasional
country stores that lay along the
winding, mountainous path of the
touring Democratic slate.
On the bus with Tawes we're

A typical stop was Patton's

Here TaWes bought two packages
of marshmallows from proprietor
James Patton, who seemed more
grateful for the sale than i'm

practical answer to an unfortunate
situation"
The pattern was the same at
most of dozen stops the Tawes
troupe made today. While martial
music blared from the bus, the
candidates bounced in and out of
doOrWays, shook the few hands in
sight, handed out buttons, cards,
pencils, match books and emery
boards, all embazoned with their
names
Usually first off the bus and last
back on was Goldstein, who logged
up and down deserted streets in
search of voters. 1t also fell to
him to bid each town a farewell
and God bless you all over the
bus loudspeaker system.

In an article which should be
required reading for all who do
read and titled, "Second-Class Mail

points out some of these. The pro-
posed increase, for example, would
add S91 900 to the annual postage
bill of the Atlantic Monthly, which
dates from 1857. This additional
burden is more than seven times
the before-taX profit the magazine
earned in 1861.

novel by Steve Allen. Published
by Bernard Gels Associates; dis

The people in this book don't
seem to know that to get the best
service out of a magnetic needle.
you don't toss it around like Boy
Scout compass.
You, have to be careful. You
don't carry a lot Of iron in your
pockets. You clamp the needle for
transportation. You float it for use
and storage. Just as soon as you
begin fighting the great geo-mag-
netic field of force around you,
the polarity gets shot to hell and
you are in trouble.
The people in this book are ig-
norant, careless, and reckless.
They loose and lose their emo
tional integrity. They are demag-
netized. Without the field-force to
move them, and guide them, they
are estranged. They are human
junk. They are lost souls. 1t is
tragic.
Dan Scanlon is scallion, a small
onion. He prostitutes his lyric tai
ent and makes a lot of money
writing trashy songs for musical
shows. But he has a slight Catho-
lie polarity. He is capable OF
alteration, of worshipful attitude
toward Beauty. Women attract
him,
AS Catholic of low degree, Dan
is a heretic-in- he-truth. He goes
along passively, without under
standing, in the notion that women
are wonderful. God invented Wo-
man to be Blessing. 1t is in the
Book. So Dan is conditioned to
receive his package, gift-wrapped
in Beauty by God.
Names like Ellen. Helen, and
Elaine all mean the same thing,
the most in earthly beauty. When
