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

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

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.
