Laiesf Vanguard
Fails to Enter
Projected Orbit
1 Washington - (UPD - The De
fense Department announced
yesterday, after 24 hopeful
hours, that the latest Van
guard rocket failed to achieve
either the speed or altitude
necessary to place a satellite
in orbit.
There was no immediate
statement of the cause of the
failure. The 72 foot rocket,
seventh in the Vanguard se
ries, was blasted from its
. launching pad at Cape Canav
eral, Fla., at 11:38 a.m. (EDT)
yesterday, and apparently
sent its 21? pound payload
sphere whirling erratically
once or more around the
earth.
But the department said
the satellite vehicle "failed to
achieve an altitude or veloc
ity adequate to place it in its
projected orbit."
'Consumed by Friction'
The statement added: "Aft
er one or at most a limited
number of passes around the
earth at very low altitudes,
the .vehicle re-entered the
earth's atmosphere and was
consumed by friction."
The Navy, however, got
definite radio signals in South
Africa from this would-be
satellite and believes the ca
reening sphere was later
picked up by radio stations in
Fort Belvoir, Va., and Ha
vana, Cuba, after its first pass
around the earth.
Mo Instrument Reports
The target altitude was 300
miles, while the required
speed for a stable orbit was
18,000 miles an hour. The 20
inch sphere carried electronic
photographing equipment to
determine cloud cover around
the world, but in its brief life
no actual reports from these
instruments were received.
Only one of the seven Van
guards has been successful.
Four more of the Vanguard
rockets, costing about 10 mil
lion dollars each, remained to
be fired.
Mies TelSs Nato
Formosa Situation
Affects West Too
Boston, Mass. -dTD- Secre
tary of State John Foster
Dulles told NATO allies yes
terday that surrender to Red
China's arrogant demand for
the Quemoy and Matsu islands
would have serious conse
quences for western Europe.
He said the islands just off
the Red Chinese mainland are
the geographic point where
the Communists "judge sur
render is most likely."
"But nonetheless the prin
ciples at stake there are the
principles upon which NATO
rests," he said. "If they are
not valid and not sustained in
Asia, it cannot be confidently
assumed that they are valid
and will be sustained in Eu
rope. Question of Will
"The strength of NATO and
the immunity of the NATO
area from aggression depend
very largely upon what the
Soviet leaders consider to be
the will of the United States,"
he said. "Is the United States,
in fact, willing to defend ter
ritory other than its own in
support of collective secur
ity?" Dulles discussed the Far
East crisis in an address pre
pared for the Atlantic Treaty
association, an organization of
private groups supporting the
North Atlantic treaty.
Collective Security
His theme was that the Far
East crisis could not be di
vorced from the rest of the
world. He noted that both
Red China and Russia were
trying to undermine the prin
ciple of collective security by
forcing the United States to
abandon Nationalist China and
get out of the Formosa area.
"If the United States should
give in to that arrogant de
mand in Asia, the conse
quences would be felt in west
ern Europe," Dulles said.
He reemphasized that the

United States wants a peace
ful solution in the Formosa
strait. But he said that if that
principle is abandoned in the
Far East ' "it is undermined
everywhere."
He noted that America's
kaiu partners have a "na
tural concern" that the United
States not become so en
tangled in Asia that its contri
bution to NATO's military
shield would be damaged. He
sought to reassure the NATO
nations on that point with the
words "we do not expect that
to happen." He also assured
them the United States "does
not expect NATO military

Private Game Lands
'Strongly Opposed'
Salem-(UPD-The State Game
Commission Friday took a
slap at private-interest game
management, hitting partic
ularly the Hudspeth Land and 1
Livestock Co.'s plan to permit
hunters to bag mule deer on
their lands for a 25 fee.
The game commission said
the company's plan is "not
believed to be necessary or
desirable, and is strongly op
posed by the state game com
mission." In detailing the opposition,
the state agency said it rec
ognized the right of landown
ers to protect their property,
but added .that all citizens
have the right to share equal
ly in wildlife resources of
Oregon.
Private Game Management
and- Conservation, Inc., the
group that initiated the plan,
was set up by the son of John
Hudspeth, Prineville. The
game' management corpora
tion claims more than 900,000
acres of . private ranch and
forested land in central Ore
gon. The game commission in
listing their reasons for con
demming the plan, include the
fact that some of the private
lands in question make up the
winter range for deer. The
commission said that winter
food is the primary limiting
factor of the deer herds, and
a balanced harvest of deer
from both private rnd public
land is essential for proper
management of the game and
forage resources.
INELIGIBLE
Boston -(UPD- One of the
names stricken from nomina
tion papers by the Massachu

was: "Winston Churchill, 10

Churchill had left that address.
