AF Scientists Describe Space Satellite Project LOS ANGELES (UP) - Six types of unmanned moon mis sions, including establishment ot space buoys" which would float at anchor in earth-moon space. were described today by scien tists of Air Force project RAND. In Air Force feasibility studies. researchers have "shot" the forth coming lunar probes hundreds of times on giant computers. They say the first successful probe may he a "boomerang" shot around the moon rather than one which hits the moon. Such a circumlunar flight is basically easier and could reveal more data than one which destroyed itself by crashing on the moon. Spokesmen at the Air Force Ballistic Missile Division here re fused to reveal which mission the tirsl probe will attempt. But thev said, it will be one of the three simplest described by RAND Corp. scientists. Drs. R. W. Buchheim. study project leader, and Hans A. Lies- ke, trajectory expert, list the three simplisl missions as: A shot to escape from the earth-moon system. A circumlunar flight. One which hits the moon. The escape mission is listed as the easiest. Even if a probe missed the moon by thousands of miles, it could reveal much vital data. The possibility of an unplanned escape exists for all of the other missions. It is easier for an ob ject to escape the earth-moon sys tem bv being shot toward the moon than in any other direction Furthermore, all of the probes must be shot at speeds approach ing that necessary to escape from Home Winners Awards Set Prize winners of the annual Klamath Union High School mod el home contest, which has been sponsored by the Klamath Board of Realtors since its inception 12 years ago, will be honored at an award banquet to be held Wednes day evening at the Willard Hotel. Winners and their parents will be guests of the Board ot Realtors, according to Realtor George Over mire, contest committee chairman. Over 80 students competed in three divisions: A model home building contest, an essay contest on "Why I Should Own My Own Home," and a mechanical draw ing contest on home construction. Phyllis Crabtree was the first place winner in the model home division, Barbara Ovcren, second, Peggy Summer, third, and Brian Jacobs, fourth. Gaining honorable mention were Donna Burgoyne and Bob Faulkner. Winner of the essay contest was Gail Mollison. Kathy Smith was second and Nick Lampropulous took third place. First prize in the mechanical drawing class was earned by Al len Hittenger while Charles Carl son gained second place. Ted West received honorable mention for his entry. Judging the homes and mechan ical drawing enlries were Chester Clark of the First National Bank. Warren Parr, builder and Mrs. James Kerns, a housewife. The essay entries were judged by Mrs. Mary Bothwell of the First Fed eral Savings and Loan, Mrs. Na omi French, president of the So mptimist Club and Elton Smith of the United States National Bank. Approximately 40 of the homes built by the students are current ly on display in store windows near Sixth and Main. Police, Firemen Stage Benefit YREKA The Softball game of the season will be staged at the Yreka City Park, when the Yreka Volunteer Fire Department meets the Siskiyou County Law Enforce ment team on Wednesday evening, May 21 at 7:30. Proceeds from the game will be contributed to the American Field Service program, to he used to help an American neid serv ice foreign student again attend Yreka High School. A family in Yreka has already volunteered to take a student into its home, and the AFS has con firmed the availability ot such a student. Yreka residents are asked to raise the needed monies to Hfake the student's trip possible. In order that the exchange pro gram continue, the town of Yreka is responsible for 60 per cent of the student's expense mon ey. This year's student is to come from Austria. Arrangements for entertainment, along with the ball game, have been made bv Keith Vidler, who Is in charge of the affair. r f i. Ui. ORRIN ORMSBEE KF Boy Takes DeMolay Post At the slate DeMolay conclave at Seaside on May 8. 9 and 10. Orrin Ormsbee, son of Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Ormsbee. 906 North Sixth Street, was elected as state deputy master councilor. A graduate of Klamath Union High School in 1957, he is finishing his freshman year at Willamette University at Salem. He is work ing toward his degree in law. As state deputy master coun cilor, he will be in charge of the winter workshop for Oregon in the coming year. Last year he was master councilor of the Klamath Chapter of DeMolay which post lion is now filled by Hugh M Swancy Jr. Eighteen m embers of the Klamath Chapter attended the conclave at Seaside. Total atten dance exceeded 600 Oregon De Molay members. BLAST KILLS 18 PARIS (UP) Firemen search ing the ruins of a five-story ga rage which collapsed when a fuel lank exploded uncovered the body of the station's owner Sunday bringing the death toll to 16 per sons. A spark from an electric meter set off the explosion, Saturday. the system around 33,000 feet per second. The moon s pull can neip a rocket escape, but it also can cap ture one which passes at a low enough speed. A probe could miss the moon by less than 400 miles and escape, while a less speedy shot could miss by a greater dis tance but still be pulled to crash i the moon. A "simple" circumlunar flight is listed second in order of dif ficulty. This would be a probe which would be returned only to the general vicinity of earth. If a probe vehicle is to be returned to a specific area, such as over the United Slates, the mission be comes vastly more complicated. Third most difficult is a hit on the visible face of the moon. Scientists could hit the moon with out knowing it since a near-miss shot could be pulled to crash on the far side of the moon which is never seen by earth. When these probes are accom plished, scientists will try tha tougher ones requiring greater ac curacy and more complicated ve hicles which must use decelerat ing rockets at destination.

Supervisors Okay Budget YREKA The 1958-1959 Siskiyou County budget of $4,656,971 was adopted by the Siskiyou County supervisors at their last meeting on May 13. This is $.144,465 less than the amount for the now-ending fiscal year. The decrease was partly the re sult of a cutback in the county road department because of the reduced U.S. Forest Service timber revenue. Also the board pointed ! out the probability of a $3,000 sav-j ings in the operation of the Tule-i lake farm adviser's office. I Supervisor Earl Agcr of Tulelake says that he has been notified by 1 the University of California Exten sion Service that no other funds will be available to provide an ad ditional farm adviser for the Tule lake area. The board also tentatively ap proved the following recommenda tions made by Supervisor W. A. Barr, relative to changes to be made in the county employe salary ordinance: A change which would allow em ployes to retain seniority although laid off, providing for discharge in order of reverse seniority and re hiring in seniority order. (The ordi nance would have cancelled the seniority of any employe absent more than 90 days within any 12 month period.) Increase the trial period for new employes from 10 to 30 days. Give the board authority to sus pend the salary step increases for reasons other than lack of funds. -Change the ordinance to allow department heads to recommend salary increase for employes with out the approval of the county administrator. The board turned down a sug gestion by Barr that a job appli cant be sent directly to supervis ors by department heads, instead of being routed through the county administrator. 100 NYLON CARPET The Longest Wearing Carpet You Can Buy! 95 Yd.
