The rocket's noisy zoom Into space will mark the latest step in a series of unusual experiment: started 21) years ago by Dr. Itobert II. Oodilard, Clark university sci entist.

At Auburn, near Worcester, rev era) months ago, Dr. Coddard shot a rocket .k vward. Tho scientist appeared well - pleased with t h otifcome of the test flight but th- attendant explosions alarmed resi dents of the countryside. It was suggested by the fearful that recording devices, carried by the rocket. In returning to earth, might smite a native. Dr. Codded argued that the object which 1" turned to the ground Invariably bunted only a short distance from the point from which the rocket had been loosed, Finally he com promised by transferring his ex perimental station (o Camp l' v ens.
