IRBM Missile
Tests Begin
WASHINGTON tfl The United
States has started preliminary
firings in its intermediate range
ballistic missile (IRBM) programs
with an Army test already made
and an Air Force launching ex
pected later this fall.
The Army experiment, reported
to have been made last week at
the armed forces' missile test cen
ter on the Florida coast, is be-
lieved to have been an initial test
of the behavior of a missile-like
object without a warhead or other
features of an actual weapon.
The Pentagon declined to dis
cuss the report.
There were reasons to believe
that the device was lobbed out
some hundreds of miles along the
seaward range from Patrick Air
Force Base.
The test device climbed on a
high trajectory which carried it
out of the dense atmosphere of the
earth, then brought it back in the
"re-entry" phase. The re-entry of
an object traveling at thousands
of miles an hour into the atmo
sphere has been one of the major
problems of ballistic missile de
signers. Friction of air creates in
tense heat.
In this preliminary experiment,
the Army presumably was more
concerned with studying the ef
ficiency of the fuels,- propellant
system and the effect of re-entry
than in obtaining accuracy.
The Defense Department's spe
cifications call for a 1,500-mile
range for the IRBM.
The Air Force is understood to
plan for an initial test firing of
its Thor intermediate range bal
listic missile sometime after Octo
ber. It probably will also be an ex
perimental device.

The project for the day was
"Care of House Plants" presented
by Mrs. Ferrell and Mrs. Ben

to mix soil and plant cuttings. She
also showed the best way to prune
a plant to insure healthy, vigor

they are to be placed and with
the care that they receive.

NEW YORK i-The best half
hour filmed series of action and
romance in this new television
season has made its debut on
NBC-TV. It is "Sir Lancelot"
which concerns the knights of
King Arthur's Roundtable many
centuries ago.
Doubtless designed primarily for
younger viewers, bir Lancelot
actually appeals to anyone of any
age who enjoys watching heroic
action, filmed in England, this
program unrolls a magnificent
pageant of knights and castles, of
jousting and broad swords. The
producers appear to have spared
no effort in recapturing the au
thentic details of the days of
chivalry. .
The worst new comedy situa
tion series of the season follows
"Sir Lancelot" on NBC-TV. It Is
'Stanley." a disaster which has
crashed around the portly person
01 Buddy Hackett.
Though Hackett is a resilient
soul, it's questionable whether
he'll be able to extricate himself
from the ruins.
In the opening show. Hackett
played a newsstand dealer who
was trying to obtain opera tickets
(or a bum. The contrived situa
tion -split wide open at the seams,
How it all turned out was a mat

"Studio One" on CBS-TV played

gram of the new season in the
story of a collector of Lincolnia
who decided to burn an original of
the Gettysburg Address. If played

development, the drama. A spe
cial Announcement," might have
been more interesting.
As the wealthy collector. Bob
Cummings gave a convincing per
formance which showed he has
assets other than light comedy.
In us breathless desire to with
hold the reason why Cummings
was going to burn the precious
document, the drama went into a
long series of flash-backs. The ob-, it seemed apparent from the be-
vious reason that the collector i ginning. So why didn't they play
