Investors Advisory Insti tute says more stock splits Instruments of Satellite May Be Recovered Vandenburg Air F o r e e Base, Calif (LTD A Discov erer satellite shot tentatively set for late this month might involve America's first at tempt at recovery of the baby moon ? instruments. Air Force cargo planes known to have been practic ing recovery flights near Ha waii will zoom by the 40 to 50-pound pay load ejected from the high flying satellite and try to recover the pack age in nets trailing behind the planes. The instrument package in the 1300-pound satellite will be fired backwards out of the satellite so that .it loses orbital speed and returns to ward the earth. When it has slowed down sufficiently from its more than 1800-mile an-hour velocity, a parachute will open and further slow its descent to assist the recovery operation. To Speed Program It was indicated that the "Project Discoverer" program of satellite launchings here set frr one-a-month would not involve an attempted re covery for the first three or four shots. But is was learn ed Monday that, readiness of necessary equipment and oth er factors permitting, the re covery program would be speeded up. "Project Discover er" is aimed at clearing the way through a maze of space prob lems for the placing of a man into a satellite around the earth and recovering him.

J.-(UPD-The Negro boy sitting in school across the aisle was "just another kid in class" to 17 year-old Jon Bailey of Char lottesville, Va. The gym students - two classes sharing the same room were just high school stu dents to Susanne Frederick- son, also 17, and also of Char lottesville. She hardly noticed some were white, some were Negro. Bailey, president of the Stu dent Council at Lane High School in Charlottesville, and Susanne, a senior member of the council spent last week visiting the Atlantic City high school for a first-hand study of integration. About 900 of the 2,880 pupils there were Negro. Both said they "enjoyed it, very much." Friendliness Most Impressive The two white Southern pupils, whose school has been ordered to integrate, attended classes with Negroes every day, ate in the school cafe teria where Negroes ate, rode in integrated school buses and cheered a high school basket ball team which had Negro pupils. Their Atlantic City hosts said the two taught them their Lane school cheers. And, they said, any integration at Charlottesville "would be peaceful." Jon and Susanne agreed that "the friendliness of everyone, including the Ne groes," was an outstanding feature of their visit. "We were pleased with the week and enjoyed it very much.

We didn't have too much time to evaluate their educa tional potentials, but they looked very capable stu dents," both agreed. Negro Teachers Surprise Jon "But," Jon added, "I was surprised to see Negro teach ers (there are seven on the 115 -member school faculty). I prepared myself for the pupils, but still, it was sort of funny to walk in there and there they were. "I wasn't bothered the least, nor was I disturbed, by their presence. In the long run, it was just another kid in class. They were dressed like the white boys, and their dress at any time wasn't any more exaggerated than that of the white boys." 1 He said the classes he at tended were for pupils who achieve high marks, and "if they were in those classes, they must be good." "Everyone was so friendly, all of the time," Susanne said. "Their friendliness impressed me tremendously. One Negro girl came up to me in the cafeteria and said she hoped we would have a nice visit and enjoy ourselves." Races Intermingle "I noticed too," Susanne said, and Jon agreed, "it was much like anywhere else. In the cafeteria, groups of friends sat and talked. There were no strictly Negro, no strictly white tables. Groups with the same interests and the same friends gathered to gether and chatted and ate, like anywhere else. It was the same thing after school. Some were all Negro groups, with their own interests, off by themselves." Jon, a thoughtful student who wants to study geology- Susanne is interested in law. or a major degree in English - agreed that the friendly at titude ' of all of the pupils, white and Negro, they met during the week was impres sive. Susanne and Jon were in vited by the Atlantic City Student Council to visit the school and see integration in the North. Permission was granted a t Charlottesville.
