(APj The Navy Polaris missile today was a step closer to operational use aboard an atomic submarine after a success' ful test launching from 100 feet below the ocean surface. The 28-foot bottle-shaped missile like a bright yellow whale, broke the choppy Pacific Thursday and zoomed up 1,800 feet despite a 25 knot wind. Then, its five seconds of solid fuel expended, the missile arched gracefully back to a splash land ing in the sea near this island off Southern California. The Navy hailed this first un derwater launch as a giant step toward the day when submarines can fire atomic-armed missiles from beneath the sea at any po tential enemy. A high-ranking Navy official in Sacramento described the U. S. meanwhile, as five to six y e a r s ahead of the Soviet Union. Kear Adm. William V. itaborn director of special projects for the Bureau of Naval Weapons, said the Navy plans to build 45 missile-launching subs. These, he told a dedication of a new rocket fuel installation, "would be as nearly mvulnerable as any weapon that could be imagined." The 15-ton missile was blown from the launching tube on the ocean floor to the surface by com pressed air. It was the 67th launching from the underwater tube but the first with a real Polaris. The others were dum my models. Two nuclear powered Polaris submarines the George Wash ington and the Patrick Henry are to receive the missiles next summer. The Polaris has a po tential range of 1,200 miles.
