Top Scientists Predict
Travel To Moon By 1969
WASHINGTON 'AP Fifty top
Scientists peered into space today
and saw a man on the moon
perhaps by V.tb'J.
Or man may set foot on the
moon in 15 and zoom on to
Mars and Venus three years la
ter. That is asiuniiiis space pro
jects get very high priority and a
billion dollars a year, says Her
bert F. York, the Peni agon's re
search chief.
The views of York and other
space experts, including live from
other free world countries, were
issued in a report by the House
Space Committee on "The Next 10
Years in bpace.
The report asked, "Where does
fantasy end and reality begin?"
In their answers to committee
questionnaires, the scientists were
dead serious, even if they varied
widely on the timing of seemingly
fantastic events. Their outside
time limit on trips to the moon
and beyond was generally 20
years.
For other ventures like develop
ment of a possible death ray weap
on able to shatter objects from
hundreds of miles in space the
time was indefinite.
A number felt that 1969 may be
too early to count on having a
man on the moon. Among , them
was T. Keith Glennan. head of
U.S. civilian space work.
But Glennan ligured there is a
food chance that Americans will
circle the moon without landing
in the next decade. Army missile-
man Wernher von Braun foresaw
a lunar landing a few years there
after.
Glennan announced Tuesday
night that 110 potential candidates
for the first orbit flight around
the earth already have been
picked.
Some other predictions were
enough to stagger the imagina
tion.
Within 40 years, said Dr. Eugen
Sanger, director of the Institute of
Jet Propulsion Physics at the
Technical University of Stuttgart,
Germany, man may be traveling
at 670 million miles an hour al
most the speed of light.
But long before the year 2ono
rockets will deliver mail in min
utes around the earth, forecast the
founder ot the Italian, Rocket Assn.
Dr. Glauco Partel.
James M Gavin, former Army
rc-soarch chief, likewise saw mail
becoming almost as swilt as the
telephone, and rockets otherwise
used commonly for what air trans
ports now do.
Frederick C. Durant III, former
head of the International Astro
nautical Federation, predicted the
Soviets will send man into orbit
and back several times in 1959 and
will otherwise shock Americans
by "pressing their current advant
aeous lead" in spacecraft.'
Brig. Gen. H. 'A. Boushcy, the
Air Force's technology director
foresaw the building of a large
space station piece by piece near
the end of the next decade. This
would be the refueling and jump-
otf point for trips lurther out.
Sanger spoke of a possible ultra
violet searchlight in space which,
using high-energy beams, could
shoot a death ray "destroying lly
ing objects up to a distance of
several hundreds of miles in a
fraction of a second."
Atomic Energy Commission
Chairman John- A. McCone ex
pressed confidence in the develop
ment of a powerful nuclear rocket
engine within the next 10 years
plus small atomic units for mak
ing electricity aboard spaceships.
Dow Chemical Co. scientists
foresaw within the next decade
nuclear engines allowing continu
ous flight lor up to a year, either
in the earth s atmosphere or dc
yond.
Peaceful benefits foreseen in
eluded worldwide TV, communi
cations, and weather observation
from satellites.

SACRAMENTO UPI) Gov.
Edmund G. Brown asked the Leg
islature today to spend $23,382,689
to operate and develop California's
network of beaches and parks.
The governor submitted a budg
et which suggested spending $7.
838.758 for day to day bills and
$15,543,931 for site development at
state parks during the fiscal year
which will begin July 1.
Brown's spending request was
$4,301,335 less than stale fiscal ex
perts estimate will be spent on
the program during the current
budget year. ,
The daily support budget for ad
ministration of the park program
showed an increase of $515,9(18 or
7 per cent over the 1958-59 fiscal
year. But the capital outlay pro
posal was $4,817,323 less than the
spending estimate for this year.
.Most of the construction money
was earmarked for further devel
opment 'for existing parks "so
that the benefits from these ex
penditures may be realized as
quickly as practicable," the budg
et document said.
Money to finance the beaches
and parks program will come ei
ther from tidelands oil revenues
or from the sale of bonds.
n addition to the beaches and
parks budget,' Brown proposed
spending 175,407 for small craft
harbors and $3.161. 63 for opera
tion of the California Olympic
Commission which is preparing the
Squaw Valley site for the 1960
Winter Gaines.
No money was budgeted lor ad
ditional construction of roadside
rests. A total of $12,500 was asked
for maintenance of the existing fa
cilities. Major property acquisitions con

Thursdav afternoon's accidental
shooting at Klamath Union High
School provoked a two-hour, closed
discussion at Monday night's reg
ular meeting of the board of School
District 2. Following the discus
sion, which dealt not only with the
single incident, but with discipli
nary problems in general, board
members intimated they would
pursue the subject further, pos
sibly at a special meeting sched
uled to deal with curriculum and
staff problems lor 1959-60, which
was set for last evening.
The board reverted to open ses
sion at the conclusion of the dis
cussion, and voted to suspend the
15-year-old principal in Thursday s
incident from classes, "until fur
ther action of the board." This
further action will presumably be
taken when juvenile authorities
have disposed of the case. The
boy was shot in the hand by the
accidental discharge of a pistol he
was carrying in a. notebook.
Meanwhile, at a meeting of the
board of School District 1, pro
tests from Conger School parents
who had opposed an assignment
change reducing staff at the school
by one teacher were granted par
tial satisfaction. Instead of losing
the services of one teacher as was
originally proposed. Conger will
give up only approximately half
the time of one teacher, who will
also handle classes at Riverside
School. Moreover, the Conger prin
cipal, James Young, will instruct
a fourth grade class for two class
periods a morning, so that the two
fourth grade classes will remain
entirely distinct.
The changes had been originally
proposed by the administration to
compensate for low enrollment
figures in two Conger classes. As
was explained in an article pub
lished in Sunday's Herald and
News, many Conger parents felt
that special circumstances Involved
at that school justified the main
tenance of better than standard
pupil-teacher proportions there
for the rest of this year.
In other actions, the board of
District 1:
Authorized further repairs at
Riverside School, where those un
dertaken to bring the building into
compliance with requirements set
by the state fire marshal are now
nearly complete. The further re
pairs include ceiling plaster work
and linoleum laying.
Authorized architect Howard
Perrin to draw up designs and
specifications for construction o( a
new fire escape at Riverside, in
keeping with a recommendation of
the fire marshal.
Authorized use of Mills School
auditorium by the Community Con
certs Association in 1959-60, "pro
vided such use does not interfere
with school activities." President
Andrew Loney, of the association,
had informed the board that the
Pelican Theater would not be
available for concerts next year.
Authorized the clerk of the board
to negotiate with the county court
in reference to eventual purchase
of 10 county-owned lots which
would form part of the proposed
north site for a junior high school
Accepted the resignations o(
three teachers: Dorothy Ezcll,
Janice Oberst and Sherrill Boyd
the last "conditional upon finding
a replacement.
Decided to hold a meeting of
the districts budget committee
Thursday night at the high school.
beginning at 7:30 o clock.
Board members of School Dis
trict 2 were also told that work
at Klamath Union High School to
bring it into conformity with the
requirements of the state fire mar
shal was now complete except for
minor details.
Principal Charles T. Carlson pre-.
sented the board with figures
showing an enrollment for rthe
new semester, as of Monday, of
664. only two less than that of a
month before.
The board authorized the travel
of Carlson and Paul Angstcad to
a winter meeting of high school
principals, to be held in Eugene,
and of Francis Scapple and An
drew Knudsen to an annual meet
ing with former KU students, held
at the Oregon State College cam
pus. The board also authorized
travel of an estimated 16 students
to a speech fraternity conference
to be held at Southern Oregon Col
lege, buj deferred action on a pro
posed trip by five journalism stu
dents to a meeting at the Univer
sity of Washington. The board de
clined to grant Charles Woodhouse
two days' absence from school in
order to attend a professional con
ference in the radio and TV field
in Arizona.
In other actions, the board:
Granted use of Pelican Court to
the Klamath Reservation Jay
cees for their national invitational
all-Indian basketball tournament,
March 21.
Granted the use of Wright Field
to the Little League baseball or
ganization, "on the same basis as
last year." .
Created a committee, to which
Chairman Edward Hickman ap
pointed Dr. James Noel and Mrs.
Earl Sheridan, to investigate com.
ditions under which the cafeteria
should be made available for ban
quets. This was taken in view ol
requests from the Klamath Falls.
Gospel Mission and the Wesleyaa'
Service Guild lor use of tht

Got into a discussion on mathe

of curriculum and staff problems,
for the coming year, which were to.
be gone into at greater length at
Tuesday night's special meeting,,
lollowing a closed budget session
of both districts with the teach-,
ers' representatives.
Superintendent Arnold Gralapp
told the two boards that a salary,
