Schirra Presents Striking Picture
CAPE CANAVERAL (UPDWhat makes a man venture into apace? Many men can give you many answers, but there seems one above all for Wally Schirra—he is his father’s son. Call it destiny or fate or whatever, but this man was almost a "natural” to become what he is today — America’s newest spaceman, off on the most ambitious adventure his country has ever undertaken. waiter M. Schirra Jr. presents a striking picture, whether as a Navy commander or test pilot or astronaut — and he is all these. But there is a haunting quality about it —a faded portrait from four decades in the past, or another young flier with a fearless heart for adventure. Flying offered this man a chance to do something new, and he fell in love with it He became quite good at it, enough to gain the ti tie of “Ace” during World War I for the U.S. Army Air Corps. After the w ar, he stayed with it as a barnstorming pilot across the United States. Ever Searching Still, there was that incessant desire for something new, something daring, something to prove something else. He had one idea: How about flying an airplane through the Arch of Triumph in Paris? “It was an interesting idea,” says Walter M. Schirra Sr.—and it was part of a colorful heritage of ideas and the daring to carry them through that he passed along to his son, born March 12, 1923, in Hackensack, N.J. The elder Schirra never carried through the Arch of Triumph stunt because that was what it was—a stunt, proving little if anything. And thus it was that Wally Schirra Jr., now grown up and looking for things to do, grappled with the prospect of becoming an astronaut. Was this simply a space - age version of flying through the Arch of Triumph, or was there really something worthwhile in it? Shows No Fear The younger Schirra was not afraid of the task. Far from it. That kind of fear cannot exist in a man who flew 90 combat missions in the Korean War and came out of it with credit for downing one Russian-built MIG jet plane and a “probable” on another. Tight spots didn’t worry him. Schirra already had been in plenty of those in his elected profession as a jet test pilot. He once had a Sidewinder missile, fired from his own jet plane, double back on him. He calmly eluded the deadly missile until it ran out of fuel. What bothered Schirra was the

criteria that his father already had made away of life—Don’t risk your necfc unless there’s a good and useful reason for it. Was the Mercury man-in-space program: such a reason, or simply a propaganda stunt. Schirra- wanted none of the latter. He took two full weeks before he decided to accept the invitation to become a member of America's first team in space, the Merucry astronauts. Rugged And Handsome Wally Schirra doesn’t particularly look like an astronaut. He is ruggedly handsome, but his 5foot - 10 - inch, 170 - pound frame doesn’t truly distinguish him from a salesman or lumberjack of college football player. He is perhaps the friendliest of the Mercury astronauts. A wry smile constantly flicks from his lips. Perhaps his most remarkable physical feature is his eyes, which no artist yet has been able to capture on canvas. What counts is that Schirra acts like an astronaut. A retentive brain, sharp relfexes and confident step set him off from others —and he underscores it with a rugged brand of individualism that has no tolerance for foolishness, stupidity or wasted time or energy. Schirra Is a refreshing shot of candor and unminced words to a program otherwise t horoughly bogged down in tired old cliches litre “A-O.K.’’ and “Everything is ‘Go’ ’’ — comments attributed in the past to other astronauts but suspiciously unlike them.
Revival Os Church Begins From Within Rev. Walter King, evangelist at the Union Chapel Evangelical United Brethren church sooke Tuesday from the theme — “Workers, and a mind to Build.” He based his thinking on the Scriptures, II Kins 6:1-7. “The sons of the prophets were asleep. ‘Awake!’ they cried, ‘we are too crowded here, we cannot even move.’ They asked permission of the Prophet Elisha, that! they might each take a beam and go at once to Jordan in order that they might build a large dwelling to live in. The prophet gave consent for them to go. But they replied to him; you go with us. ‘I will go,’ he said. They went to Jordan, and when they arrived they began to cut wood. “One young man was cutting away and as he worked, his axhead came off and fell into the water. He cried out; it was not mine, it was borrowed. ‘Just where did it fall?’ asked Elisha. ‘Right over there, I saw it fall,’ answered the young man. Elisha cut down a sapling and cast it right at the spot where the ax-head disappeared. A miracle happened. The ax head came to the top of the water and actually floated. Elisha commanded the young man to take it and to put it back on the handle himself, secure it and go back to work. He did just that without argument. Soon the tree was felled. “The revival of His church must begin from within the camp, (local church) The Holy Spirit moves on the inside through His chosen in behalf of those on the outside who are strangers to Him and His church. If the workers are not right on the inside, how can they expect to recruit others on the outside? Those who train soldiers must first, be capable of training others. When Elisha said go! every man went in spirit and in unity. God says to his church today, Go! All must go with one spirit in the unity of love or there is no use to go. As the prophet was willing to go, so the pastor or minister of to-, day must be willing to lead the way back to God. They realized the power and the divine in their great leader Elisha. They respected him. So must we appreciate our ministers today, and reckon they are heralders of God declaring the hour. As the young man knew just where he lost the ax-head, so a Christian knows just the place he or she began to drift; to lo se the power, the concern, the love for others and God. The Holy Spirit pleads for that one to come back to that very spot, take up their cross and go to work. A miracle happened that day when the ax-head floated. A miracle happens today when one is redeemed in Christ. A miracle happens every day as one is lead safely by His grice. As one Witnesses to men.” Fort Wayne Driver Fined Last Evening James Waldron Stroble, 40, a Fort Wayne resident, was fined $1 apd costs, a total of $18.75, in justice of the peace court Tuesday evening, following his arrest by deputy sheriff Harold August. Stroble was arrested after August observed him passing a truck and a car on a yellow-line on U.S 27, two miles north of Geneva, I earlier in the evening. ,___J

are ready.While more local storage is available, it does not seem to have affected the quantity of beans moving to market, but it may mean that they are moving in a more orderly fashion, rather than all at one time, as often has happened in the past. Locally, the bean harvest is expected to pick up considerably in the next few days, especially if another frost helps the beans along.
