out of the ocean Tuesday after
noon with it's pilot still aboard,
and was landed at Grand Turk
Island early yesterday.
AStronaut John H. Glenn, jr.,
who piloted the little ship 3d.
600 miles through space, was
not here to meet it when it
arrived. But the first Ameri-
can in space, Astronaut Alan
B. Shepard, jr., was on hand.
He supervised unloading of the
spacecraft from a CHA cargo
plane at the cape airstrip.
Did you have an itch to
go up in it?" Comdr. Shepard
was asked.
I've had that itch for the
last three years." he replied.
Comdr. Shepard, who made
his Suborbital Project Mercury
flight last May, said Col
Glenn's capsule showed more
evidence of the rigors of re-
entry than did his own Free

expected; Friendship-7's re-en-

times that of Freedom-7.

Comdr. Shepard explained
that the worst heat = about

With the Presidents approx

The President said he would
be glad if schools in nearby
Maryland and Virginia would
follow the District example by
closing so as to permit their
pupils to join in the welcome
to Col. Glenn.

honor notes from parents re-
