JNEW ROUTE TO MOON-A new route lo the moon nas been
described by Charles E. Kaempen, Los Angeles research sci
fcrltist. All scientists have to do is build a three-man space
6liip and a tanker of equal size, shoot them at the same
econd from, launching pads a mile apart and then about a
third of the way to the moori latch them together, he ex
plained at a press conference. Artist's drawing shows the
STAR (Space Transport Assembly and Rendezvous ve

Gulf Coasters
Begin Cleanup
Alter Hurricane
Pascagoula, Miss. - IUPD
Warm sunshine bathed the
Gulf coast Saturday and
homeowners took advantage
of the fair weather and week
end work-break to begin clear
ing up the seaweed and mud
left by hurricane Ethel.
Officials estimated the big
storm caused nearly $2 - mil
lion damage as she came
crashing in from the Gulf
Thursday along a 45 - mile
strip of the "Mississippi Rivi
era." The cost to homeowners
alone was expected to reach
$750,000. Officials estimated
that between 1,500 and 2,000
homes suffered roof damage
of a varying degree, windows
were smashed and trees and
shrubs uprooted.
50,000 Persons Fit
An estimated 50,000 persons
fled before Ethel's winds, and
this precaution, coupled with
the fact that a cold front sap
ped the storm of much of its
strength before it hit, pre
vented further damage.
Two deaths were indirectly
attributed to Ethel. A power
company employee was elec
trocuted while repairing a
damaged line and a man drop
ped dead of a heart attack
while battening down his
home.
A merchant ship feared
missing with 17 persons
aboard reported to the Coast
Guard in New Orleans that it
was in no distress and pro
ceeding toward its destination.
An alert was issued for the
S.S. Francisco Morzan when
it was found to be overdue on
a cruise from Fort Pierce,
Fla., to Houston, Tex.
Keeps Close Watch
The weather bureau at
Miami disclosed Saturday It
was keeping close watch on
two easterly waves, often the
forerunner of tropical storms.
One centered over the Florida
coast did not appear likely to
develop tropical characteris
tics, but a second one centered
near Puerto Rico was describ
ed as "strong."'The weather
agency said a reconnaissance
aircraft would be sent to
check on the Puerto Rican dis
turbance again Sunday.
Southern Bell Telephone
Co. estimated Ethel cost the
firm $85,000. The company
said 6,000 telephones and 100
toll circuits were knocked out
of operation by the howling
winds.
The company said 14 extra
crews were sent to the coast
and service was back to norm
al Saturday afternoon.
Mississippi Power Co. and
Gulf Coast Electric Co., the
two utilities which serve the
area, estimated their bills
would be several times higher
than that of Southern Bell. '
Chairman Bill Johnson of
the State Seafood commission,
said a preliminary Investiga
tion shown only minor damage
to the coast oyster beds. He
plans a detailed probe next
week.

Quotes From the Hews
By United Press International
New York Police Commissioner Stephen R. Kennedy,
refusing to say which of the 16 major world figures who will
attend the U. N. General Assembly session presents the
greatest security problem:
"Our job it to assure maximum security for all of the
men. Once you fall into the trap of thinking one is more
important than the other, you fall into a trap."
Washington Dr. T. Keith Glennan, head of the Na
tional Aeronautics and Space administration, stating that
a Russian attempt to launch a manned satellite is "not un
expected:" "Your gutu is doubtless better than mine as to how
they will time such a launch."
Milwaukee Warren Spahn, who pitched a no-hitter
for his 287th major league victory; looking forward to win
ning his 300th game:
"That'll just about round it out. But it's hard to believe
anything could be more thrilling than a no-hiiter."
London Baker John Brennan, 23, after being sen
tenced to prison for impersonating a Hollywood tycoon and
bilking a hotel and a car rental firm:
"I don it. and it was worth it."
