Star Staff Writer

LOS ANGELES, Aug. IS.
Radiation hazards from a So
lar storm were dismissed today
as nothing for moon-bound as
tronautS to worry about.
DR.. Herbert Friedman of the
Naval Research Laboratory,
Washington, said the perils of
radiation in space had been
vastly overestimated until quite
recently. A new look at old data
indicates spacemen will be quite
safe inside the three-man cap
Sule designed for the Apollo
earth-moon journey.
1T would take something
more unusual than anything
we have seen on the sun in the
last Is years to present a real
peril" DR.. Friedman said in an
interview.
The naval scientist, who lives
at 2643 North Upshur street,
Arlington, is here as a featured
speaker at an international
geophySical meeting. In his pa
per, delivered today, he reported
on advances in studies of the
sun over the last five years.
Sees Solar PredictabiIity
Interviewed before his talk
to the scientists, DR.. Friedman
said he expects solar activity
will be practicable by the time
men are ready to journey to
the moon. Flights to the moons
vicinity, not involving landings,
are now planned for about
1867.
By that time, he said, scien-
lists should be able to foretell
one or two days in advance the
onset Of solar storm. Such
storms cause X-rays to shoot
out from the sun. and emit vast
clouds Of energetic, penetrating
particles called protons.
The material of the Apollo
command module," or main
space craft for the moon jour-
ney, Is expected to shield the
astronautS from even the worst
proton bombardment. The
smaller bug" or lunar landing
vehicle containing two men, to-
be dropped from the DRIFTING
mother craft to the surface of
the moon, will not offer suf-
ficient shielding, however, he
said.
2 and 4-Day Okay Seen
If forecasting methods can
be perfected, scientists will be
able to give the go-ahead for a
24-48 hour period after the
main Apollo craft is in orbit
around the moon. One Of two
days will be an adequate period
for the first few lunar landings.
X-rays from the sun are no
problem, DR.. Friedman said.
Even the hardest" of these
would be stopped by the skin
Of the lunar bug" or the ma
terial Of a space suit, he
explained.
DR.. Friedman's optimistic
outlook on the radiation prob
lem undoubtedly will be cheer
ing news for space needles. For
a long time proton lombard
ment for solar storms has been
one of their chief worries.
DR.. Friedman, one of the
worlds top authorities on the
sun, said earlier conclusions
were based on a reasoning
process called extrapolation, by
which scientists figure back
ward or forward into unknown
areas from space data that may
be available.
THE extrapolations turned
out to be too extreme" he re-
marked.

and Saturday of this week. The
busses will be dispatched Fri
day. Sept. l3 at pm. and Sat
urday, Sept. IA, at 8 am. over
routes previously used BY school
busses in Prince Edward coun-
ty.
The trial run will be neces-
sary to determine locations Of
all children. especially those not

W. H. Baldwin, Jr., business
manager Of the school system
1t is very important that chill
dren throughout the unity

ard which school they will at
tend" he said.
Schools in the county that
were used prior to 1859 will be
included as stops on the trial
runs and it is suggested that
children in the immediate area
OF these schools use the schools
as loading points. This will help
/ the drivers determine the con
1 centration of students in the
area.
I On Monday. Sept. Is. buses
will begin Loading through the
county at Z am. to allow suf-
ficient time for transfers and

locations. 1T is anticipated that

said.
Parents Of children in areas
rot previously served should be
on the old bus route when the
trial runs are made to advise
the drivers, SO BUSES can be
rerouted and schedules revised
II is also very important during
the Friday and Saturday trial
runs that the bus drivers on all
routes be contacted by parents
