Air Force Physician Notes Loneliness in 'Unfriendly Realm' Br CLYDE DONALDSON United Press Correspondent Minneapolis, Minn.

He made the unprecedented trip in a small gondola below a 200-foot round helium-filled balloon. Simons said it '"might have been shattering" if his radio communications to earth had failed during the flight. Earphones Off The space adventurer said he took off his earphones several times and the "silence was like nobody ever experiences on the earth." He said in that "defin itely unfriendly realm there was absolute silence." Asked if he felt any spiritual experiences while viewing the heavens, Simons replied: "I consecrated myself to pushing back the frontiers of science in making the flight, and I felt that I was doing that." Others at the press confer ence were Otto Winzen, head of the firm that manufactured the balloon, and Col. John Stapp, Three teen-agers Anne Quast 19, and Joanne Gunderson, 18, both from Seattle and Carole Jo Kabler, 19, of Sutherlin, Ore.; long-hitting Anne Richardson, a statuesque blonde from Colum bus'Ohio; Barbara Romack Por ter, a champion in this event in 1954 and her perennial rival, Ann Casey Johnstone of Mason City, Iowa; plus a real darkhorse, 52-year-old Mrs. John Penning ton of Buffalo, N.

Simons said he "never exper ienced panic" during the mara thon flight, but had "some mo ments of concern" when his de scent was hampered by a bank of thunderclouds at an altitude of 15 miles. Clouds Form He said the clouds formed at sunset and still were below him Tuesday morning when Simons! had planned to descend. "It was decided to let me re- niciiu up i wiiiie icnger, , ne i said, and because I could see such vast distances, I spotted an opening in the clouds to the west." Simons said he drifted to the open spot to the west and start ed his trip to earth. The clouds, meanwhile, began clearing. Winzen said the unscheduled appearance of the thunderclouds showed that "man under present situations and with present equipment is not able to fore cast weather accurately from the ground." "We could get better weather forecasts if there was some kind of floating platform above the earth where a man could see what was happening minute by minute as the storm built up," he said. Try O.K.
