America's All-Out
Campaign for Man
On Moon Dampened
By ALVIN B, WEBB JR,
CAPE CANAVERAL (UPI) -"Racing
to the moon, high up
in the midnight sky . . ." :
But probably not for long. -America's
bid- (or manned
conquest of - space, which has
borrowed tne moon as a sort ot
"carrot-on-a-stick" incentive ap
proach, is headed for a major
shake-up or "reorientation,
as they say of programs and
personnel. ; -, ' .
The carrot suddenly lost its
taste appeal.
Congress, which overhelm
ingly endorsed President Ken
nedy's decision '2'A years ago
to make the landing of the first
astronauts on the moon a "na
tional goal," has stopped writ
ing blank checks for space re
search. This year's budget was
cut by $500 million.
The President, who had said
"We possess all the resources
and talents necessary," indicat
ed some second thoughts of his
own with a dramatic proposal
in September that the united
States and the Soviet' Union
journey jointly to the moon,
Khrushchev Won't Bit
Soviet Premier Nikita
Khrushchev jerked the rug
from under the whole $40 bil
lion works by stating rather
jovially that Russia wasn't in
terested in - competing, and
wished the United States "good
luck."
If, as some have claimed,
Khrushchev's real intent was to
lull America into a sense of
lunar disinterest, he is off to a
good start. Moon racing now
seems as faddish - as goldfish
swallowing and hula-hooping.
Insiders privately concede
that neither the Kennedy ad
ministration nor ihe' National
Aeronautics and Space Admin
istration can depend- much
longer on holding up the moon
as the prize for space mastery.
The public apparently isn't buy
ingparticularly at $40 billion.
The months ahead, are ex
pected to see a slow but' detec
table withdrawal by the United
Mates trom plans lor an au-oui
stations in orbit around earth,
the type of program the Soviet
Union has said over and over
again it is pursuing. -
Some of America's top scien
tists in the federal space agen
cy have admitted off the rec
ord that manned space stations
would have been a more logi
cal approach in the first place.
But present U.S. plans place
that sort of program in the
"post-lunar" phase meaning
after 1970.
- Russia is an odds-on favorite
to establish a small space sta
tion in orbit around earth by
1965.
Another "reorientation" in
the U.S. space program is ex
pected to be a revamping of
NASA leadership. James E.
Webb is considered on his way
out as the space agency's ad
ministrator, possibly before the
next session of Congress.
Bitter Several Times
Webb, an ebullient North Car
olinian with a penchant for or
ganizational genius,, grabbed a
tiger by the tail when he took
over the job ot leading me na
tion's fastest growing federal
agency under President Kenne
dy. He has been bitten several
times, not of his own fault.
Webb was caught short when
the President made Ills propos
al for a joint American-Soviet
lunar expedition. Then along
came Khrushchev's "withdraw
al" to shoot the props from un
der Webb's gallant bid to pre
vent a reduction in his pro
posed $5.7 billion space budget,
i Not tne least oi me ourgeon-
he problems inside the U. S.
space effort is the rift between
NASA headquarters in wasn
ington and its Manned Space
craft Center in Houston, Tex.
Houston personnel have been
shuffled and reshuffled in at
tempts to gain better coordina
tion between the two.
Meanwhile, the space agency
has become aware that money
is getting tight. Last week, It
decided to save $50 billion and
possibly stave off further budg
etary cuts - by eliminating
four Apollo carin-oroiung snois

Remember? The wcalhcr
forecast was sort of uncertain, hut
. it looked so nice When you finished breakfast
you decided lo wash anyway. And by ihe lime the
clothes were ready for the line, brother, Ihcrc It
was: rain, a cold wet river of rain, or niuybe it was
driving snow with flakes big as a quar
ter and the temperature dropping
below freezing. And all you
could do was watch in helpless
frustration, temper rising, with
a shapeless lump of wet clothes
in a basket for company and
consolation. It's happened be
fore; it will happen again and
again. Our advice; save wear
and tear on your disposition,
save yourself all the work and
worry of line drying simply by

"Back to baking" is the trend
today and no wonder with all

Scalloped Potatoes and
Pork Chop With Milk
Evaporated milk, one of the
most nutritious and handy-to-use
kinds of milk, adds its smooth
goodness to this scalloped po
tato and pork chop bake to
make it a hearty and satisfying
main dish. It can be prepared
in an electric skillet, on the
range or have its final cooking
in the oven.
The combination of condensed
cream of mushroom soup,
evaporated milk and seasoning
is an easy-to-do-sauce. We thick
en this slightly and use it also
as a gravy for Swiss steak,
hamburger patties, fish steaks
and fillets. Recipe makes four
servings.
2 tablespoons butler
4 thick pork chops
2 teaspoons salt
Pepper
1 can UOVi ounces) con
densed cream of mush
room soup
1 tall can (1 cups)
evaporated milk
cup water
4'A cups thinly sliced raw
potatoes
A cup sliced green onions
Melt butter in electric skillet
at 340 degrees. Sprinkle pork
chops with one teaspoon of the
salt and one-quarter teaspoon
pepper. Place pork chops in pan
and brown well on both sides.
While chops are browning,
make a sauce by combining the
mushroom soup, evaporated
milk, water, the remaining one
teaspoon salt and a dash of
pepper. Remove browned chops
from skillet (it saves a dish to
lift them out onto a piece of
aluminum foil); reduce heat to
240 degrees. Add a little of the
sauce to the meat juices in pan
and stir until smooth.
Place a layer of potatoes, a
scattering of onion, then sauce
alternately in the skillet until
all Is used, ending with the
sauce. Place pork chops on top.
Cover and bake in skillet at 2-10
degrees (or on low flame) until
potatoes are tender, about 40
minutes. This can be baked in
a 350 degree oven.

2,030 Overnight
Campers Jse Lake
Site Campgrounds
ASHLAND More than 2.000
overnight campers made use of
the 12 campsites at Emigrant
Lake last summer, Neil Led
ward, county parks and recre
ation director, told the Ashland
Chamber of Commerce Tuesday.
The figure was 2,030 to be
exact, he said. This compared
with about 200 the year before,
when there were no improved
campsites at tne lake.
Because of the apparent de
mand for campsites, 18 more
will be installed in time for next
year's season, Ledward said.
The lake seems to have a
special appeal for persons who
live in climates which are more
moist than that of the Rogue
Valley, he explained. Among
the visitors last summer were
families from the Oregon Coast
and the rainy areas of Washing
ton, many of whom spent as
long as two or three weeks at
Emigrant. .
There is also a demand for a
group picnic area that can be
Expanded Film Rental
Service Is Available
CORVALLIS An expanded
film rental service to individ
uals, schools and organizations
throughout the western states
has been announced by the
Oregon State System of Higher

Through its educational film
library in Corvallis, the State
System is making about 4,000
different educational films
available for rental in the west.
The service is hanaeled by
the Division of Continuing Edu
cation. The State System operation
reserved in advance, Ledward
said. As a result, one is now
being created.
In other portions of his talk,
Ledward touched on a variety
of topics, including plans for
the Agate Dam and Reservoir;
the new county park site on the
Rogue River; the possibility of
making a park out of the gravel
pits near the Talent interchange
of Interstate 5; and the pro
posed youth work program in
county parks which the parks
and recreation commission has
asked the county court to consider.
is the "only film library on the
west coast offering a complete

bronze medal winner at the
1062 Venice Festival of Films
for Children.
Among series now available
are the Physical Science Study
Committee Physics Films, the
EBF Biology Series and such
NBC or CBS documentaries as
"Twisted Cross," "Hitler In
