ling, top propulsion expert on the
Navy Vanguard rocket project,
; says calculations indicate that the
,'Laviet Union has been using two
istage rockets to launch all its
Sputniks.
Stehling told an Air Force Assn.
dinner meeting last night that in
formation points to the use of the
'same propulsion system for the
f84-pound Sputnik I, the 1,120
ipound Sputnik II, and the 3,1X10
jpound Sputnik 111. He estimated
.'the rocket's length at 175 feet and
.total thrust at about 555,000
pounds.
Stehling also told the group to
watch (or another Vanguard sat
ellite launching attempt in the not
too distant future. He declined to
.pinpoint the date of the launching
-of a 20-pound satellite.
The Navy has announced that
this -will be the first official sat
ellite launching vehicle of the Van
Jguard series. Previous Navy
ilaunchings have been of test ve
hicles with experimental satellites
aboard some of them. The Van
'guard satellite now in orbit was
ilaunched by one of these test ve
hicles. Stehling said that from the in
, formation released by the Soviets
it was possible to estimate that
for the first stage they used a
"rocket 100 feet long and 10 feet
diameter, with a thrust of 500,000
pounds.

had 55.000 pounds of thrust. Steh

ty event which will conclude the
day's program on both July 4 and
5. this specialty, to he known as
the "Forty-niner Gold Rush" or by
some similar appellation, will be
in the lorm of a contest, probably
between four teams of two men
each.
In simple form, each team is to
catch the burrow carrying the
same number drawn by that par
ticular team, put a pack on his
hack and the winners will be the
first pair to get the burro into
the big circle, unpacked and a
campfire started.
A few handicaps have been ar
ranged, howev er. Wild jack burros
are being brought in from the
desert by Fitzgerald Brothers of
the Snyder Creek Ranch at Plush.
It is planned that four of the wild
critters will be turned into the run
way in front of the grandstand,
after a halter, 10-foot- rope and
a number have been put on each
one in the chute. To the number
will be added three gentle burros,
each carrying the number zero.
The number tags will hang incon
spicuously around the burros'
necks.
Starting judges Barry Taylor of
Plush and Bill Green of Lakeview
will check each team of men to
make sure the right burro is be
ing loaded. The packs will include
noisy things like a water can. skil
let and some lids, loosely assem
bled and calculated to further an
noy the animals.
To qualify for winning money, a
team must get the burro into the
circle marked in the center field.
Finish judges within the ring will
be Marvin Butler, president of the
Lakeview Roundup Association and
Bob- Fitzgerald of Plush.
"If the burro gets either his
ears or his tail over the finish
line it will count as being inside
the circle," Barry stated.
"We're warning all contestants
that this will not be child's play.
Those animals have never been off
the desert nor are they broke to
lead. We're figuring on organized
confusion and for laughs from the
crowd. When those tin paas in
the packs start to rattle around,
we'll probably have to corral some
of those jacks as far away as
Keno."
Time and place for sign-up for
this fun contest will be announced
as soon as arrangements are com
pleted, Barry added.
