Technicians Seek 'Bugs' In Aurora 7 CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. W Technicians checked Aurora 7, the Mercury spacecraft of Navy Lt. Cmdr Malcolm Scott Carpenter, and its Atlas launch ing rocket in detail Monday. If they find no more "bugs" in capsule or missile if the weather holds if other factors all are favorable, then the Aurora 7 Atlas combination will blast off next Thursday be tween 7 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., Eastern Standard Time. A successful launch would fling Carpenter into the same type of 100-mile high, three-orbit flight that Marine l.t. Col. John 11. Glenn Jr. made Feb. 20 but with several new ex periments to be performed. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration had planned last week to launch Aurora 7 Tuesday. Discovery of a possible defect in an elec trical device that keeps the At las flight control system from freezing up forced a postpone ment of at least two days. Carpenter's backup pilot is Cmdr.
