Soviets Launch Moon Rocket MOSCOW UPI—The Soviet Union today launched an unmanned Luna-6 rocket on a 3H day trip to the moon. The shot came less than 24 hours after the United States successfully completed its Gemini-4 space spectacular. The official Tass news agency said the “multi-stage” rocket. weighing 3,172 pounds, was “close to the planned flight path.” The announcement did not indicate the specific purpose of Luna-6. Russia's Luna-5 space probe, launched on May 9. failed in an attempt to make an unprecedented soft-landing on the moon. Its retro-rockets apparently failed to fire properly and the rocket crashed onto the lunar surface. Tass referred to Luna-6 as an “automatic station” whose final stage was in a “parking orbit” on a course toward the moon.

Aim of the special session called by Governor Bramgin is to enact financing and enabling legislation to assure that Indiana’s bid for a nuclear research laboratory or “atom smasher”

The special session will get from Department of Administration Commissioner John Hatchett a revised estimate of sales and income tax revenues which will assure them they can spend $10 million for land if Indiana is selected for the $280 million laboratory. Cut Work Week WASHINGTON UPI — The House Monday passed legislation that would reduce the work week of postmasters from 48 hours in six days to 40 hours in five days. The bill now goes to the Senate. Its estimated cost for hiring extra post office personal would be $18.7 million.

The award, which honors the memory of the late Mr. Vallely, Purdue Union director for 31 years, is given to the senior who “most nearly fulfilled the ideals of service developed and exemplified by board members who served undei Mr. Vallely ? guidance.” The award was established by students, alumni, colleagues and friends of Mr. Vallely. For the honor. Akers will have his name engraved on a bronze plaque permanently displayed in the Purdue Union. He also received a framed certificate of the award and a personal gift of a watch. He was elected for the award by a committee comprised of J. C. Smalley, director of the Purdue Union and university residences, and five other administrative staff members.

It is the Chamber's hope that it will have an even better record this summer. To date some sixty youngsters have listed their names with the Chamber and more are added each day. Most of the applicants have a limited workexperience background but they are willing to try to do whatever you need to have done. They can mow lawns, babysit, wait tables, clean, paint, type. file, work on farms, and innumerable other odd jobs. Most of them are not particular what they do — they just want to be busy. If you have a job to be done, whether it takes an hour, a day, or all summer, won’t you call the Chamber of Commerce, OL 3-4517, and let them send you a boy or girl to do it? Plane Missing With 10 Aboard MIAMI UPI — An air and sea search of the Bahamas widened today in an effort to find 10 men who were aboard an Air Force Flying Boxcar that disappeared last Saturday night.
