The SEC report recommend

The case, a SIS million fraud,
ultimately resulted in the long

that the late Senator George

Next U. S. Space Shot
AtLeost Is Months Off

serious malfunction of any
major system in either of the
first two shots probably would
force NASA to try again. This
could create another stumbling
block for the already tight
schedule.
Gemini-3 will go for several
orbits" with two men aboard,
according to current NASA
plans, and will be followed by
at least one more orbital flight
of considerably longer dura-
ton, possibly up to 10 days.
At least eight months will in
tervene between these first two
manned missions under the
present timetable.
1t will be late 1865, or more
likely 1866, before the Gemini
astronautS will attempt the
rendezvous maneuver which is
the programs principal reason
for being. This maneuver in
wolves bringing together the
manned spacecraft and an I'M
manned vehicle previously
launched from an adjacent
pad at the Florida base. Up to
eight such missions are plan
ned at intervals of about two
months.
The Gemini flight schedule
calls for the two-man program
to be concluded in 1866, by
which time the Apollo program
should be in its preliminary
stages. But even without de-
lays, it is difficult to see how
all eight rendezvous missions
could be carried out before the
spring Of 1867 at the earliest.
Most, if not all, the Gemini
flights will end in parachute
landings on the ocean, as in
Project Mercury.

BY WILLIAM HINES
Star Staff Writer

The next American manned
space fig hit is at least 10
months off, and may we'll be
delayed until 1865, a survey of
space plans indicates.
Officials of the National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration are still publicly
hopeful of getting the first
two-man orbital Gemini mis-
sion off the launching pad in
october, 1864. But schedule
"slippages"-always likely al
most to the point of certainty
in any new space program
could cause this target date
to be missed by months.
Gemini, the next step for
ware in space after Project
Mercury, is now almost a year
behind schedule. Its probable
cost is running far above the
original estimate of about 5000
million.
Gemini was officially an
nounced in December, 1861 as
a gap-filler between the one
man Mercury program and the
three-man lunar-bound Project
Apollo. 1t has encountered
schedule trouble virtually from
the outset, and now appears
destined to be running concur
rently with the early stages of
Apollo.
At least two unnamed
Gemini test flights will be
launched prior to the frs t
manned mission. The first of
these is presently scheduled for
December of this year, but
there is a difference of opinion
in NASA whether this date can
be kept.
Reversing the procedure fol-
lowed in Project Mercury, the
first unnamed Gemini flight
will orbit the earth at least
once, while the second will be
sub-orbital. There will be no
sub-orbital AIMED Gemini
missions, according to present
plans.
Purpose of the first test
flight is to check out the aero
dynamic spacecraft, which will
be ballasted for proper weight
and center of gravity, but will
not be extensively instru-
mented. The second shot will
test the crafts performance
during re-entry into the at
mosphere and will have all
systems aboard.
Any significant slippage in
the second shot, scheduled for
August of 1864, would probably
cause a delay in launching
Gemini-3, the first m anne d
flight. NASA has only one pad
available for the launching of
Gemini-carrying Titan
II rockets from Cape Canav-
eral, Fla.
In addition, a failure or

sible for the anti-Buddhist

Catholic, Mr.. Diem has denied

discrimination.

ment spokesman noted that
Kennedy said the United
States should not withdraw its
support of Wet Nam, and that
is heartening." United States

Nam is running $500 million a

Washington reacted sharply
to a story published in Saigon
that the Central Intelligence
Agency had plotted to over
throw the Diem government
with the help of dissidents in
South Wet Nam.
State Department press Of
ficer Richard 1. Phillips denied
the charges, which appeared in

Namese newspaper, the Times
of Wet Nam. He likened the
story to a fiction thriller.
