Tips an Given for Choosing Sunglaues New York - raft - A fash ion coordinator came up with these sunglass tips for three faces: Frames that slant up from the center are good for a wide face; a square face can be soft ened with a frame that comes up and out and a diamond shaped face calls for frames with a low-arched bridge and wide eye area. Man and Space Elasticity of Mercury Capsule Being Determined There is a breaking-off more than an endurance con- By ALVIN B, WEBB Jr Cape Canaveral-rtlPH - Con cede the Russians what you will, but to the United States must go the honor of having built what seems to be the world's most elastic space ship. The result could be the first endurance contest in space a sort of flagpole sitting-in-the-sky, starring astronauts. If science is willing to take a backseat. At the heart of the matter is America's famed Mercury space capsule and, more spe cifically, its remarkably stretchable abilities which ap-1 under way for a possible Glenn Jr. and J.

Two years ago, scientists placed what seemed a firm limit on a man-carrying Mer cury capsule three orbits, no more. The experts cited all sorts of reasons why any thing more was entirely out of the question. Today, the same scientists are getting the same type of capsule ready to take an as tronaut, L. Gordon Cooper Jr., 22 times around the world sometime in May. And still the end isn't fully in view. Plans already are Mercury capsule manned flight of perhaps 70 orbits this year and the experts say j throttle. Additions to the vital it is entirely feasible. Somewhere long the line, a fair degree of elasticity has set in. From three to 70 or bits is a long stretch. It is now apparent that Project Mercury, America's first man-into-space program, was on the ultra side of con servative when it started esti mating the capabilities of the space capsule two years ago. Only after the three-orbit trips of astronauts John H. comes instead an orbiting , tven me platform suitable for little Issem certain where is scientists don't oxyeen, food and fuel sup plies quickly made it possible for astronaut Walter M.
