They fell all around two water cannons, which were enveloped in a thick cloud of gas and withdrew about 30 yards. The choking crews had to get out for fresh air. Western police were soaking wet, as were the youths carry ing the cross. The Communist guards ap peared particularly enraged by the sight of the wooden cross, being carried by West Berlin youths.

Riot police eventually cleared the Wilhelmstrasse area. East Berliners tried to join in the demonstration. But Commu nist police kept them back. About 100 persons were seen being pushed back in the Unter den Linden and Wilhelmstrasse, in East Berlin. The Communists brought up loudspeakers blaring martial music in an attempt to drown out the shouts from the West. At least 15,000 West Berliners were at various points on the wall, witnesses estimated. Traffic and work had halted for three minutes in West Ber lin to mark the anniversary. What was planned by authori ties as a quiet observance of the anniversary erupted into a noisy demonstration. At the Friedrichstrasse, West Berlin motorists blew their horns for 50 minutes. People streamed to the wall. They shook their fists, shouted in chorus and waved to any East Berliners they could see. In a broadcast carried by all radio stations. Mayor Willy Brandt said: "In this minute we all remember the bitter injus tice which has been done our city. We think about our rela tives and friends, about our countrymen, who by brutal force are separated from us, and we honor the victims of the wall." Wreaths were placed along the wall in memory of at least 37 people who have died on it during its year of existence. Walter L.

Boat Swamps In Umpqua; Man Missing REEDSPORT A 65-ycar-old Springfield man apparently drowned near here Sunday when a boat swamped in the Umpqua River. His companion was re ported in "good" condition Mon day at Keizer Memorial Hospital in North Bend. U.S. Coast Guard boats and the Recdsport Jeep Posse were continuing the search Monday for Oakley T.

Moscow reported that the two were travelling in closed flight and were in sight of each other, but did not indicate their rela tive positions. Vostok IV is in a slightly higher orbit than Vostok III, launched earlier. Then the Intercom announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, we have inadvertently landed at the Troutdale field by mistake." United Air Lines said the pilot, coming in for a visual landing, made "a mistaken iden tity in airports." The big jet, which usually uses an 8,000 to 10,000-foot run way, braked hard but otherwise landed without trouble on the 4,660-foot runway here about 4:18 a.m. No one on the Chicago-to. Portland flight was hurt. The surprised passengers were fer ried by bus to Portland where 58 continued to Seattle. The jet, Troutdale Airport's most impressive visitor in a long time, dwarfed the small planes that usually use the field. A tractor was brought to tow it to a parking lot so that its jet ex. hausts would not tip over small planes. A passenger called it "quite a sight this large jet sitting here on the little dinky air port." United said the pilot, Cant. S. R. Whipple, Chicago, thought the lights of the Troutdale Air port were those of Portland. The two runways line up, sepa. rated by a jet flying time of only a minute or two. The approach control lower at Portland said Whipple had received landing instructions and was cleared for the visual landing. The FAA said It was investigating the error. Eight hours later, a United flight crew from Seattle got the empty plane off the short run way. The plane, its fuel tanks nearly emptied, used only 2,600 feet of the strip getting into the air.

There were indications that one or both Soviet space men might land Tuesday. A Soviet source said something interesting would hap pen Tuesday afternoon, and refused to elaborate. How ever, at about that time both astronauts might be in a position for a landing. "The Falcon," Maj. Andrian Nikolayev, 32, made his 40th orbit at 10 p.m. Moscow time, the Tass news agency reported. That would be about 1,040,000 miles piled up since his Vostok III blasted off Saturday morning. "The Golden Eagle," code name for Lt. Col. Pavel Popovich, 31, at about the same time completed his 24th trip around the planet, making about 264,000 miles covered since his Vostok IV was launched Sun day. He was believed to be still somewhere In the vicinity of Vostok III. Both had far outstripped the best previous Soviet space effort Maj. Gherman Titov's 17-orbit flight and had covered distances beyond that to the Moon. The two were said to have exchanged radio greet ings Monday morning after awakening and eating breakfast, but it was not clear how close their space ships were together. Tass reported they were near enough Sunday to see each other's ships. Trackers in Japan had put the distance between them as about 75 miles Sunday. But the Sohio Research Center in Cleveland, Ohio, said they later had moved 385 miles apart. 'I Congratulate You' Premier Khrushchev messaged them: "I again congratulats you and embrace you. I wish you successful fulfillment of the program of the flight, and happy landing." They were shown again on television Monday, lying back In, their chairs, occasionally rising to a half sitting position to work bettor with a log book or to Veoo It from thtaUUntl their faces from the television viewer In the cabin ol the ship. Ges tures and movements were relatively limited. Tass reported that millions of televiewers saw Popovich rise from his scat, look through the porthole, smile and drink something, then take his scat again. Both had traveled far enough to reach the Moon and back but both reported they felt fine, instruments were functioning perfectly, and cabin temperature and other conditions normal, Tass reported. The cosmonauts' morning hours were devoted to breakfast, setting-up exercises, and then scientific observations, physio logical and vestibular ear tests and psychological tests, it said. The double flight marked a fantastic feat of Soviet rock etry that the United States does not hope to match until at ' least next year. Tho ability to send up a second space ship 24 hours after the first one had gone up, and bring it into orbit in the vicinity of the first ship, marked an important advance toward the day when satellites can join In space for construc tion of a space platform from which a Moon shot can be made. A U.S. tracking station near Johannesburg, South Africa, calculated from the orbits that both astronauts took off from a launching site in the Baikonur area near the Armenian border. Robert Citron, chief of the Smithsonian Institution station, predicted the two ships would land near Krasny Kut, in the south-eastern part of the Soviet Union. Spaceship Sighted Nikolayev told control headquarters he could see Popo vich's ship through his porthole as the two ships hurtled through space completing each Earth orbit in slightly more than 88 minutes. At its maximum orbital height of 157 miles, Vostok IV was 14 miles higher than Vostok III. They reached a minimum orbital height of 112 and 111 miles respectively. The faces of both spacemen were flashed on Soviet tele vision screens during their journey. The transmissions showed them doing such tasks as manipulating what appeared to be log books. At one point, they carried on a three-way radio chat with Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space. "Everything is fine, friends," Gagarin said. "Congratula tions, till we meet on the Earth." "I watch the Earth from the clouds," said Popovich. "To the right in the illuminator porthole I see the black, black sky. My spirits are wonderful. Everything goes on excellently." Nikolayev broke in with: "Everything is excellent. I hear you excellently. My spirits are excellent." U.S. Won't Orbit Two Men Until 1964, HOUSTON. Tex. ( A manned spacecraft center offi cial said Monday the United States docs not plan to have two men on an orbital flight at the same time until 1964. James A. Chamberlin, direc tor of Project Gemini, said the center hopes to rendezvous two capsules in space in 1964. 'But, unlike the Russians, we will have two men In one cap sule and none In the other," he said. Chamberlain said he has a minimum of Information on Russia's latest space accomplish ment but called lt a great achievement. "They are demonstrating they can get their capsules close to gether and that their guidance system works very well," he said. He described the current Rus sian project as a "complicated step forward in space tech nology." He declined to speculate on how close the Russians ire to Official Says making an attempt to put a man on the Moon. I'm not certain the Russians are trying to go to the Moon," he said. Maybe they're going some place else." 1 Gemini s two-man flights cur rently are scheduled for early 1964. Gemims two-man flights will follow the completion of Project Mercury's one-man flights and will precede Project Apollo which has a goal of placing a U.S. astronaut on the Moon in this decade. The Gemini flights also will be of longer duration than those of Mercury. We hope to increase the du ration of the flights gradually up to two weeks," Chamberlain said. "Determining the possible length of man's stay In space is a prime objective. "The rendezvousing In space will be the last major milestone in Gemini. The manned capsule can use the unmanned capsule's large engine for greater maneu verability ji space."
