UFI How to give moon spacecraft a softer landing Is part of the goal of a $16,000 research program at the University of Texas. Engineers have a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) grant to study a method for cushioning such a landing. Researchers will do their the oretical investigations at the Uni versity's Balcones Research Cen ter. The method they are study' ing involves equipping space ve hicles with a tripod landing gear o: breakable metal tubing. As the craft settles on the moon, or to a landing on any difficult sur face, the lengths of tubing would crumble under the landing weight, break into tiny fragments and thus cushion the landing.

DEAR POLLY-We keep our small dog in the house, and as she walks around, the metal tags on her collar keep jingling. They wake the baby and annoy me, as well. I put clear plastic adhesive tape around the tags to hold them together. It is ceratinly quieter around our house now. S.W. DEAR POLLY Mine is a time- saver for laundry day. I wash the clothes that are to be ironed first, then put them in the dryer for about five minutes or a little longer, according to size of the load. While the rest of the clothes wash, I iron these clothes just as they come from the dryer. 1 have fewer wrinkles, the clothes are just the right dampness for ironing and the iron seems to glide over them. For the clothes that are too dry in spots, I keep a spray bottle of water at the end of the ironing board. Do be sure to put a newspaper or scatter rug. on the floor, for the water sprays a little farther than the clothes Now I finish my ironing in half the usual time and have more time to spend with my two little daughters.

CAPE CANAVERAL IUPI) Project 823 is an ambitious mili tary plan to launch "secret" sat ellites from Cape Canaveral. Aside from its physical suc cesses, or failures, Project 823 should provide an enlightening measurement of the gap between Pentagon theory and testing cen ter fact in the matter of space secrecy. Exactly which end of the Wash ington-Cape Canaveral axis will be enlightened remains to be seen. But there is a hunch at this end that the Defense Department will find the results roughly equivalent to arranging a private belly dance in Times Square. In a place like Cape Canaveral, where launchings are staged be fore 125,000 talkative Americans, garden club women roam around gantries, and rocketry is dis cussed by everyone from school age to senility, secrecy seems mostly a product of someone's hopeful imagination. Plenty of Publicity But back to Project 823, which surely ranks as one of the most publicized secret space programs in recent history. You may have heard it referred to under the cu rious code name of "Vela Hotel." The Defense Department ab hors having "informed sources" quoted on secret projects. But Defense Secretary Robert S. Mc- Namara either ignored the "no- talk" tag on Project 823-Vela Ho tel, or someone forget to tell him about it. In any event, McXamara told the Senate in open session recent ly that the United States was get ting ready to launch satellites to detect nuclear explosions in space. He didn't mention any names, but since Vela Hotel is the only such project going, one guess should suffice. Neither d i d McNamara say where the launchings would take place. But since America has only two bases for such a firing, a guess would have stood at 50 per cent chance of being right. Firing Set Back As it happens, the Atlas-Agena rocket for the first shot is stand ing on launch pad No. 12 at Cape Canaveral. The firing, originally set for September but now slipped into October, will attempt to put a pair of Vela Hotel satel lites in circular orbits 50,000 miles up. The Pentagon has ordered the Air Force to keep quiet about it. But the shot will be about as hard to hide, or to ignore, as an elephant in the closet. The Atlas Agena might not awaken the dead, but it has sent a goodly number of the living scurrying from a deep sleep in the past. Quite possibly, there will be no announcement of success or fail ure. However, that should reme dy itself with time. The federal space agency's "satellite situation report," which comes out every two weeks, carries a concise list of orbiting satellites, secret and otherwise. Pope's Statue Being Readied VATICAN CITY (UPU - The statue Pope Pius XII did not want has been quietly erected in St. Peter's Basilica. Reporters visiting the world's largest church today spotted a huge bronze statue of the late pontiff, still covered by a canvas but obviously ready to he un veiled at an early date. The stat ue was ordered several years ago by cardinals appointed in Pius' reign, although he expressly begged off such an honor in his last will. "I beg those with whom the matter rests not to busy them selves or to worry about erecting any monument to my memory," Pius XII said in the testament that was published after his death in 1958.
