S. pure air and water forces are begin ning to worry about the danger of man's polluting the moon as he has the earth. Of course Spacemen Nell A. Armstrong and Edwin F. Al drin, Jr., discarded their two special space suits, boots, gloves and tools they used in gathering up samples of moon terra firma and exuded, according to the estimate of Alton Blakes lee, AP science editor, more than 300,000 germs during their sojurn on the moon. Left behind also was an American flag, supported by a frame which served In lieu of wind to extend the flag out ward from its staff; a seismograph and a television camera. Neither these gifts to the moon nor the vehicle which brought them had been sterilized, so admittedly there is a remote pos sibility that the earth envoys have spawned a rash of mi crobes on the moon, but that Is too remote to justify a cam paign against further visits to earth's satellite. And it will be noted the moon was not one whit paler nor sicklier look ing after than before the Junar module landed. If the abandoned accoutrements of Armstrong and Al drin represent the maximum of earth materials left on the moon, there Is little danger that the lunar orb will become visibly a garbage dump even though none of the discard will be oxidized. And, for that reason, It is extremely unlikely that early bacteria will find the moon a benign host. All life on earth Is geared to survival only In the gasses that constitute the earth's atmosphere, and to earth's temperatures. Since the moon has no discernible atmosphere to shield Its surface from extremes of the sun's heat by day or to retain warmth by night to temper frigidity, It Is pretty well defended against intrusion of bugs from lunar landing devices. In short, the moon Is pretty well sterilized against any earthly living thing. On the other hand, there is also a remote possibility that the moon may harbor some microbes of its own. That is why the rocks and other ground samples brought to the earth by the moon visitors are being kept sealed until they can be Inspected and analyzed without posing danger of contam inating humans, and why the astronauts are being consigned to quarantine on their return. You see, while there Is probably no one on the moon to catch diseases, there are living things on earth that might be destroyed by moon germs thriving under earth conditions without meeting natural counter-bacteria. These precautions will be necessary at least until it is established there is no life of any kind on the moon. Genesis -- Last Chapter In the end, There was Earth, and It was with form and beauty. And man dwelt upon the lands of the Earth, the meadows &nd trees And he said, "Let us build our dwellings in this place of beauty." And he built cities and covered the Earth with concrete and steel. And the meadows were gone. And man said, "It is good." On the second day, man looked upon the waters of the Earth. And man said, "Let us put our wastes in the waters that the dirt will be washed away." And man did. And the waters became polluted and foul In their smell. And man said, "It Is good." On the third day, man looked upon the forests of the Earth and saw they were beautiful. And man said, "Let us cut the timber for our homes and grind the wood for our use." And man did. And the lands became barren and the trees were gone. And man said, "It is good." On the fourth day, man saw that animals were in abundance and ran In the fields and played in the sun. And man said, "Let us cage these animals for our amusement and kill them for our sport." And man did. And there were no more animals on the face of the Earth. And man said, "It is good." On the fifth day, man breathed the air of the Earth. And man said, "Let us dispose of our wastes into the air for winds shall blow them away." And man did. And the air became filled with the smoke and the fumes could not be blown away. And the air became heavy with dust and choked and burned. And man said, "It is good." On the sixth day man saw himself; and seeing the many languages and tongues, he feared and hated. And man said, "Let us build great machines and destroy these lest they destroy us." And man built great machines and the Earth was fired with the rage of great wars. And man said, "It is good." On the Seventh day man rested from his labors and the Earth was still for man no longer dwelt upon the earth. And It was good. by Kenneth Ross Upper Moreland High School Pennsylvania As printed In "Town & Country Church" Magazine. lUO.y I IVmnnln L-..I.

"Because so many elderly peo ple have fixed incomes, the onssnort helps them to hold down the cost of vacation," Hat field said.
