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-

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

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

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.

for astronaut Walter M.
Schirra Jr to double the cap

with a six-orbit trip in October.
But physically, the Mer-
these extra orbits. The added
ounces of fuel, food and wa
ter must come from some
where. Since the maximum
weight of the capsuie is in

experiments carried aboard, j
Which is another way of f

ago shaped roughly like an
old-time television picture
tube with barely enough room
for an astronaut to breathe
of a manned Mercury cap
sule, the less it can do on a
scientific level which con
tradicts the idea of Project
Mercury in the first place.
What a treat for every
occasion!
