White earned astronaut's wings
Tuesday by rocketing a X15 space
craft 58.7 miles above the earth
His feat made him the fifth
American to see the earth from
more than 50 miles up. But LeMay
pointed out that White was the
first to operate his craft under
positive control from launch to
landing.
America's other astronauts were
lofted into space aboard the Mer
cury spacecraft which were boost
ed by a missile. They are Marine
Lt. Col. John Glenn and Navy Lt.
Cmdr. Scott Carpenter, who or
bited the earth, and Navy Lt,
Cmdr. Alan B. Shepard Jr.
and Air Force Capt. Virgil I, Gris-
som, who flew suborbital missions.
In praising White's "wonderful
achievement" in the X15, LeMay
said "we know that man is going
out in space." The Air Force looks
to the day when men will "take
off from standard airdromes, go
out into space, and return" to or
dinary air fields,
With winged, controlled space
craft, LeMay said, there will be
greater efficiency, less cost ar.
more flexibility than with rocket
boosted capsules.
"We are going to have a lot
more" astronauts like White, Le
May said, pointing out that the
Air Force Is now starting an aero
space research pilots school at
Edwards Air Force Base. Calif..
where White completed his epic
flight.

Marshall Death
Called Murdar
AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI)-The chief
of the Texas Rangers said today
all evidence points to murder in
the mystery death of Henry Mar
shall, first official to point the
finger of suspicion at Billie bol
Estes. A ranger investigation will
continue.
Col. Homer Garrison, chief of
the rangers and head of the Toxas
Department f Public Safety, said
Marshall, officially ruled a suicide
could not have killed himself.
Garrison pointed to five wounds
inflicted by a bolt-action rifle,
carbon monoxide in the body, cuts
on the head and hands, brain in
jury and signs of a struggle. '
Garrison informed a district
judge and also sent word of his
decision to the FBI and the chair
man of the Senate investigating
subcommittee looking into the
Estes' case.
The rangers are working on the
theory of murclv, Garrison said.
A justice of the peace ruled
suicide in the case when the body
of Marshall was discovered on his
farm June 3, 1961. A special
grand jury in Franklin, Tex., last
May heard testimony from a
pathologist who judged from the
exhumed body that Marshall prob
ably was murdered. The body
bore five wounds from a single-
shot, bolt-action 22-caliber rifle
found near it.
A heavy concentration of car
bon monoxide was found in the
body and there was evidence of
a blow over one eye that was
powerful enough to stun a man.
The special grand jury an
nounced after a five-week in
vestigation that it could not de
cide whether It was murder or
suicide.
Rangers found cartridge casings
at the spot where the body was
found, but no bullets were found.
Col. Garrison, who doubles as
chief of the Texas Department of
Public Safety, informed Judge
John M. Barron, Bryan, Tex.,
that a murder investigation would
continue. It was Barron who
called the grand jury investiga
tion.
