Last ioonshot Fails Cape Canave., Fla. -(DPD A failure where it was least expected yesterday crushed the air force's hopes of be ing first to probe the moon and left that job up to the army. The air force's third and last assigned moon rocket made a business-like start before dawn and for a few happy minutes it looked as though the 88-foot vehicle was well on its way on the round-abuot 250,000 mile voyage to the rim of the lunar- sphere. But the premature jubi lation of air force rocketeers turned into biting disappoint ment when a closer look at data received from the rock et showed the third stage never fired.

Even son, the October shoot carried 79,000 miles, 27 times farther into space than man had ever previously hurled an object. Only 7,500 Miles Today's rocket went only 7,500 miles at a top altitude of 1,000 miles before it drop ped and was consumed by fric tion. It attained a top speed of 16,000 miles an hour, about that of an intercontinental ballistic missile. Had the payload made good its big leap into space it would have - required 2.6 days of travel to reach the moon's sphere of influence where the firing of one last rocket would be attempted from far away earth so as to slip it into lunar orbit.

Next Chance In December The army has not said when it plans to fire, but the ear liest another lunar probe could be made is Dec. 4-6, when the moon again is in the necessary relationship to the earth. In six tries, the army has put three satellites into orbit and Maj. Gen. John B. Med aris, army missile chief, said recently he believes his team of German and American sci entists have a 50-50 chance of getting a rocket to the, edge of the moon.
