HOSWELL. X. M. 'IP1 - The!
intricate count-down in launching
modern missiles was unheard oi
on .New Year's Eve of 1930 when
Dr. Robert H. Goddard fired a
missile in his first success.
It went up less than h a 1 f a
mile but helped earn (or the sci
entist recognition as Ihe father of
modern rocketry.
Charles YV. Mansur, now an
aerospace engineer for the L". S.
Army at White Sands Missile
Range, X. M , w a s an assistant
to Goddard.
"There was no such thing as a
count-down in those days." Man
sur said. "When we were ready
to fire, we fired!"
During firings, there was an I
observation point about 50 feet
from Ihe launching where
they really got a "close" look at
the launching behind a cellar
door dugout, Mansur said.
Perfected Rackets
For two years. Goddard and
four assistants developed, and
perfected r o c k e ts at Roswcll.
They worked in a shop 35 by 50
feet located ab o u t lour miles
north of the city.
Their 60-foot launching tower
was put up seven miles away at
Eden Valley.
"We were really enthusiastic
and the fact that we bad to start
from scratch even to helping
build our own machine shop did
not dampen our spirits a bit."
Mansur said in an interview in
his modern laboratory at White
Sands.
Mansur first met Goddard, who
died in 1945, at Worcester, Mass.
In the early 1920s Mansur attend
ed a grammar school there,
across the street from Clark Uni
versity, where Goddard was head
of the Sciences Department.
While in high school, Mansur
worked as a laboratory assistant
at the university under Goddard.
"We tried to launch rockets in
Massachusetts but the public pro
tested," Mansur recalled.
But the publicity aroused the
attention of Col. Charles E. Lind-
berg, who became interested in
Goddard's work. Lindberg. a na
tional hero for his solo flight over
the Atlantic Ocean, helped
obtain money for Goddard's work
from the Daniel and Florence
Guggenheim Foundation.
Given Leave
Clark University gave Goddard
a sabattical leave and loaned
machine tools and other equip
ment to his research. God
dard selected lioswell as the
ideal location for intensified con
tinuation of his work because of
the climate and isolation.
The experiments at Roswell
lasted about two years. At the
depth of the depression, funds
ran out and Goddard returned to
teaching in Worcester, able to de
vote only spare hours to his
rockets.
Mansur continued to work part
time in the laboratories at Clark.
In 1934 Goddard called Mansur
to offer a full-time job with more
experiments in New Mexico. This
time three of the original crew
returned to Roswell.
In 1940. the U.S. Army asked
Goddard s help in research on
methods of getting heavily loaded
aircraft airborne. Two years
later, the U. S. Navy awarded a
contract for research at Annapo
lis, Md., to Goddard and his men.
After Goddard's death, Mansur
continued his work in helping the
Curtiss-Wright Corp. set up a
missile program. He worked for
that firm for seven years before
coming to White Sands as a lab
oratory mechanic in the Propul
sion Branch.
Mansur, reflecting on Ihe prog
ress of rocketry during h i s ca
reer, said "it is unbelievable that
the Federal Aviation Agency has
had to "i s s u e regulations about
rockets fired by amateur rocket
clubs as their rockets may shoot
down aircraft."
"Some can reach altitudes of
five miles," he said. "Why. when
we had our first succcsslul firing
on Dec. 31, 1930 al Roswell, it
went up less than half a mile."

This Plan
Sensible,
Luxurious
Here is a plan that is both
sensible and simple plus luxur
ious. Note the compartmented
bath, lavatory and vanitory ar
rangement in this ranch design.
Three sleeping areas face rear
of home (or privacy each bed
room has easy access to lavato
ry, vanity or bath. Planning
straight across part of the front
of this home there arc two lava
tories, two vanitory counters and
large bath in center.
Master bedroom, of course, has
direct access to one section of
this compartmented bath. Also a
very huge walk-in closet in this
room. Bedroom hall is not very
long, but is used to economical
advantage by placement of linen
closet across from bath.
Entry is well lighted by top-to-bottom
glass side-lights and an
other modern touch is shown in
the glass partition separating en
try from living room. A guesl
closet fits in well here, and oppo
site the entry is another long
walk-in closet that can accommo
date additional wardrobe or stor
age. Floor of entry is of flag
stone. Again, there is a top-to-boltom
picture window -in the L-shapcd
living area. Dining is combined
but located to rear, near kitchen.
Economical use of fireplace wall
is shown by placing heating facili
ties behind this, wall in separate
nook and on dining room side one
wall of heating room is used for
china closet.
Kitchen laundry arrangement
has windows on Iwo sides and
contains storage room, indications
for washer, dryer and other kitch
en facilities. A rear exit from
kitchen, plus windows throughout
this home has both through and
cross ventilation. Exterior is sim
ple with plenty of color contrast
olfered in high ledge of planting
mix and combining wood siding
with brick veneer. Roof overhang
protects front entry.
This plan conforms to gen

Green Things Need Help
From Good Fertilizers
WASHINGTON (UP1) - It's!
true what Joyce Kilmer said Only
the Lord can make a tree. Ditto
(or grass. But you can help to
make them more beautiful.
Uncle Sam's green-thumb ex
perts, employed by the Depart
ment of Agriculture, say these
green things need some help if
they're to be kept up to par.
The first commandment for
lawns: fertilize. The right mixture
depends on the type of soil under
foot. Usually, fertilizers with or
ganic and inorganic nitrogen are
best.
When in doubt, consult your
neighborhood garden center. Or,
your county agricultural agent.
Another caution: don't drown
your law n. Hold off the water until
there's a sign of wilting grass.
And then, don't water it faster!
than the soil can absorb. Sprin
kling the green stuff three or four
times a day tends to cause shal-

Cool season grasses should be
allowed to stand at two inches
Warm season species should be
kept to an inch.

if you let the grass grow to jun

Most grass can be attacked by
hundred diseases. When one
strikes, consult your local lawn
expert and get the chemical cap
able of putting your green. in the

Small wonder: that pesky in

when embarking on the spring

suggestions.
-Remove dead, dying or un

Trim the nuisance growths:
branches likely to interfere with
