X-15 Rocket Ship Sets Speed Record EDWARDS AFB. Calif. UPD — The Xls rocket ship unexpectedly collected a bonus world aircraft speed record of 4,159 miles an hour Wednesday while flying its highest angle of a tricky maneuver linked to re-entry from space. Five seconds of extra burning time by the Xls’s powerful 57,-000-pound thrust rocket engine in a flashing flight at the fringe of space, catapulted the ship 66 miles an hour faster than its previous record of 4.093 miles per hour. The Xls, with veteran space agency test pilot Joe Walker at the controls, has been scheduled to hit 4,000 miles an hour. It also surpassed its expected altitude of 107,000 feet by hurtling up to 120,000 feet. After the flight. Walker said the record performance was “a real snap.” Walker, 41. indicated the burning time of the engine — 89 seconds intead of the scheduled 84might have been triggered by a “shallow” start after the Xls was launched for its 10 minute flight from a 852 bomber over Nevada. While streaking faster than six times the speed of sound — or 6,100 feet per second — the Xls also reached its highest angle of attack at 23 degrees in two delicate maneuvers during which it tilted its nose higher than its tail in a level flight. It previously had: hit 22 degrees. The angle of attack is *the maneuver used by the Xls during re-entry’ when it flattens out its bottom side against the earth’s densening atmosphere in a “belly flop” to slow descent. Wednesday’s attack angeles were to test the maximum attack angle that can be risked in future altitude flights this year — reaching possible to a height of 75 miles.

Study Rule Change For Memorial Use PERU, Ind. <UPI>—A committee appointed to study rule changes for use of the War Memorial auditorium at Indianapolis agreed on a new set of regulations Wednesday night at a meeting here. But there was nc indication the rules were relaxed to permit the Indiana Civil Liberties Union to use the hall for its meetings. Frank V. Dice, Peru,,! vice chairman of the Indiana War Memorials Commission and chairman of a committee appointed last week to study rule changes, said the new rules will not be disclosed until they are submitted to the full commission at its regular meeting in July. However, Dice said “the new rules will not permit the desecration of the high purposes and dedication of the memorial place.” That was as far as he would go in explaining what the committee agreed on. Dice said the committee met in Peru Wednesday night at the request of Governor Welsh, who is crusading for a change in rules so the ICLU can use the auditorium for the first time in nine years. Welsh was in Peru for a talk at a Miami County Democratic party fund-raising dinner. But Welsh was unable to attend the meeting, after all. Commissions since 1953 have banned the ICLU from meeting in the auditorium. Welsh has replaced four members of the liman committee in the last two weeks, presumably, with men he expects to favor the ICLU in the controversy. But other c hanges apparently will have to wait until terms of current members expire, none before July. 1963.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA
Welsh Scores GOP Apportioning Stand PERU, Ind. (UPD — Governor Welsh Wednesday night accused the Republican party of diluting the voting rights of more than a million Hoosiers by its stand on legislative reapportionment. Welsh, speaking at a Miami County fund-raising dinner, said the reapportionment proposals made by the Republics ns amounted to “vote fraud on a wholesale basis." The state GOP platform adopted this month at Its party convention calls for reapportionment similar to that in the federal government with the Senate based on geographical areas and the House on population. This would require a constitutional amendment and a minmum of six years. The Democrats have urged immediate reapportionment on a population basis as provided under the present Indiana Constitution. < “Indiana does not have six years to recognize the basic rights of citizenship of all its people," Welsh said. ; “The federal courts, and there is an Indiana case pending in federal court now, will not permit the continued abridgement of the voting rights of Hoosiers, who are also Americans. “As Democrats we have no agrument with those who seek to -amend the Constitution, provided they follow the Constitution until it is amended. That is why the amendment procedure was written into the fundamental law of o u r state. We insist only that the Constitution be followed until it i s changed.” Welsh said the •’basic issue” in the November elects r wi 11 be “constitutional government versus flagrant abuse of the Constitution.”
Interior Department i> Assailed By Roush WASHINGTON (UPD — Rep. J. Hi ward Roush, D-Ind., charged today the Interior Department edited the report of another government agency in a deliberate attempt to cast suspicion on t h e proposed deep water harbor at Burns Ditch, Ind. Roush also assailed Illinois spokesmen who oppose the port on grounds that it would forever despoil the Indiana dunes on the Lake Michigan shoreline. He said the opponents were working behind a false front of conservation, and that they actually sought t o protect Illinois’ Calumet Port from competition. The usually restrained and softspoken Hoosier made the accusations in a bitter speech prepared for House delivery . The department’s recent unfavorable report on the multimillion dollar project quoted excerpts from an earlier report by the Army Engineers endorsing the port as economically feasible. The engineers held the Burns Ditch site was “the only one which will serve the public harbor facilities planned by the state and the needs of Midwest Steel Corp.” 4P Deletes Key Phrase But the department delated all reference to the state's plans, so that the engineers’ report appeared to indicate that only M i dwest's needs were considered, Roush said. He denounced the department for “so delicately deleting’ ’the important phrase. “
