By: Cassandra (Cassie) Strickler In the course of applying make-up, some women appear to forget or ignore a few basic fundamentals. Keep in mind, for instance, that lighter makeup tends to bring out the area it s applied to. Conversely, areas one wishes to show less prominently, are shaded with darker make-up. Remember, too. to use a light touch to avoid the heavy, splotchy clown-like effect of make-up applied too vigorously. Some'hing else to remember when it comes to attention to your hair is CASSANDRA’S HOUSE OF STYLE.

Douglas, D-111., Monday made another effort in his battle to block an Indiana port at Bums Ditch, Ind. Douglas urged Northwestern University, the Chicago Sanitary District and Bethlehem Steel Corp, to cooperate in saving what he called "the most beautiful section of the Indiana Dunes.” Douglas wanted Northwestern to accept, and the district to offer, 10 m illion cubic yards of clay earth and rocks dredged up and deposited on the banks of the CalSag canal. This would be ideal, he said, for a landfill which Northwestern wants to enlarge its Evanston campus. Bethlehem today was scheduled to begin excavating 2.5 million cubic yards of sand from the Indiana Dunes area. The sand would be sold for $20,000 to excavating companies for resale to the university. Douglas said the sanitary district should be glad for an answer to the problem of what to do with its waste deposits. He said he hoped the district would make a generous offer to the university, “not only to provide the fill, but also to help with its transportation to Evanston as well.” V

; Epic Flight Made ; By Rocket Plane

• EDWARDS AFB, Calif. (UPD— Spa ce administration officials, i elated over the Xls’s world-rec- • ord, 48%-mile-high flight to the ■ edge of space, disclosed pl ans • today for the rocket ship to fly : to an altitude of 57 miles “in I about a month." i “I think we’ll see 300,000 feet • in about a month,” said Xls project manager James E. Love in the wake of Monday’s 255,000-foot flight which marked the highest man ever has flown in a plane. Federal Aviation Association (FAA) representatives were ex--1 pected to submit the altitude for j official world recognition. “We’ve got an aggressive pro- , gram for flying to extremely high • altitudes, and we’re not going to lose any time,” said the National Aeronautics and Space Adminis- . tration (NASA) official. v A similar expectation was voiced by NASA test pilot Joe A. Walker, 41, who shot the bulletshaped ship in its steepest climb ’ yet during Monday’s epic flightdescribed as "a thing of beauty.” j "I don’t see any reason why we can’t get up that high,” drawled the seemingly unperturbable veteran pilot. “Our only problem is control and re-entry.” The highest the sleek, needlenosed Xls had flown previously was 217,000 feet—or 41 miles—by Air Force Maj. Bob White last year. Jokes About Flight In a joking reference to the altitude potential of the Xls, the rocketeering farm boy from Washington, Pa., known for homespun wisecracks about his dangerous Xls missions, told a press conference: “I felt that if I continued to run that engine longer, I’d go into orbit.” “I got my first chance to look around at 240,000 feet," he added, saying he could scan the western fringe of the United States. “I could see Monterey Bay (near San Francisco) to the north and the Gulf of California to the south—and away out to some darn place in the Pacific Ocean.” The Wisecracking test pilot, who has said that driving on the Los Angeles freeways “bothers me more” than Xls flights, apparently felt better at the peak of Monday’s flight than he would have in congested freeway traffic. Pleasant And Easy “It was areal pleasant sensation up there,” he said, adding he enjoyed weightlessness for 2 minutes and that the ship was easy to control. Although the Xls hit a record

altitude, the main purpose of the flight was to test high altitude control, re-entry and recovery capabilities leading to future flights of manned space vehicles. NASA officials said the mission was “fully accomplished.” Walker has launched from a 852 mother ship at 45,000 f eet and then, at full throttle, rocketed into the steepest cl imb yet achieved by the Xls. After 81 seconds “burning time," Walker shut off the Xls’s 57,000-pound-thrust engine and was catapulted to the peak altitude by the ship’s tremendous momentum.
