BAINBRIDGE SADDLE CLUB NEWS

Our dub was well represented at the Sesqui-tennial Horse Caravan, May 21, starting at the Cagle Mill Dam and ending at the park in Spencer.

Those riding their horses from their homes from a distance were Gary and Ricky Cox, Lucy, Grade, Mary Louise and Donna. Trail riding, a wiener toast and just resting and talking, the evening soon passed. Several members dropped in for ftn hour or two. The Cox boys returned to their home Oat night by moon light and (bund their way through woods and fields. With a busy day ahead, the tampers were up early the next booming and ready for work.

Mooncraft Gets 2 Days Of Rest PASADENA, Calif. UPI — Surveyor took the first of two days rest today from its task of photographing the moon as scientists around the world conducted extensive tests on the craft. While the robot was vacationing, scientists at tracking stations in Johannesburg, South Africa, and Canberra, Australia, took over operation of the mooncraft. They were checking Surveyor’s condition and testing its unused secondary communications equipment. Measurements of temperatures around the craft also were being made. Scientists hope eventually to device a profile of temperatures and humidity on the lunar surface from these measurements.

Gemini 10 Shot Set For July 18 CAPE KENNEDY UPI — With one Gemini 9 problem solved, astronauts Thomas Stafford and Eugene Ceman today concentrated on reporting on the rest of their daring adventure in space. At the same time, technicians were proceeding with plans to launch Gemini 10 astronauts John Young and Michael Collins July 18. Crews were expected to complete the erection of the Gemini 10 booster on its firing pad today. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) said late Tuesday that human error was responsible for the failure of a protective shroud to jettison as planned from Gemini 9’s target satellite after it reached orbit. As a result, Stafford and Cernan were unable to hookup with the makeshift satellite — one of the major objectives of the hard-luck mission. NASA said in a reply to a query that workmen following poor directions failed to attach lanyards to the satellite’s shroud separation mechanisms. NASA’s findings confirmed the on-the-scene diagnosis of Stafford when he radioed ground controllers after inspecting the crippled satellite that “it doesn’t look like somebody hooked up a disconnect.” Flight director Eugene Kranz said the photographs and movies shown at the space center in Houston Tuesday, contained “no surprises.”

Favors Nixon For President INDIANAPOLIS UPI — ExGov. Harold W. Handley believes that former Vice President Richard M. Nixon would be an ideal 1968 Republican presidential nominee. Nixon, long a Hoosier favorite, will be the chief speaker at a GOP $100-a-plate dinner in Indianapolis Saturday. Handley was a pioneer Nixon backer before he won the 1960 presidential nomination and said he would be glad to go to bat for Nixon again “if called upon.” A GOP ticket of Nixon for president and Gov. Mark Hatfield of Oregon, now a senatorial nominee, for vice - president would be a strong one, in the opinion of Handley. “Nixon is doing a good job trying to hold the conservative and liberal wings of the party together,” Handley said. “He seems to have won the confidence of both factions.” Handley recalled the vote-get-ting ability of Nixon in this state as demonstrated by his Indiana lead of nearly a quarter of a million votes over President Kennedy in 1960. He also mentioned that Nixon’s mother was bom in Jennings County, Indiana. The former governor predicted that Michigan Gov. George Romney may be Nixon’s leading rival for the nomination, if Romney wins a third gubernatorial term.

Oat development Is very slow, with only 5 per cent of the crop headed compared with the average of 30 per cent. He said alfalfa hay and clover hay have both been cut for the first time. This is about average for alfalfa, but nearly 15 per cent of the clover crop is usually cut by this time. Com planting is 5 per cent above average and about the same as last year. Growth has been slowed, however, by cool nights. Com stands average 3 inches while crops averaged 6 inches at this time last year and 4 inches for the season average. Soybean development is about an inch below average, standing at 1 inch.

FCC Conducting Probe Of Rates WASHINGTON UPI — The Federal Communications Commission formally opened an investigation Tuesday into whether you pay a fair price for telephone service from a $33 billion behemoth-American Telephone & Telegraph Co., the nation’s largest business. Company spokesmen, defending AT&T rates, argued present charges are needed to fin-

ance research leading to more efficient service. The company has cited a,22 per cent drop in long distance charges since 1940 as an example of rate cuts due to more efficient service. The FCC, unsure that charges by the near monopoly are fair, is expected to take years questioning the AT&T’s ratesetting reasoning for interstate calls and telegraph circuits. While intrastate charges are not a direct part of the FCC inquiry, any change in the interstate rates could eventually lead to a change in charges for intrastate calls. AT&T rates are subject to periodic review by the govern-

ment and state regulatory agencies, but this FCC Inquiry is the first look at all the fmotors the company uses to decide how much to charge. In prepared testimony, Ben S. Kilmer, an executive vies president for AT&T, said that the way the Bell System prices its services “is an essential element in our continuing efforts to provide better service.’* ^ Gilmire said, “Better service requires research and this in turn requires money. We believe that the public’s interest as well as our own is served by policies which sustain and do not inhibit our ability to translate technology into more useful service."

OK Jobmobile BAKERSFIELD, Calif. UPI —The city council has approved a proposal for a “jobmobile” to tour local parks next week to interest young people in summer work. The mobile unit will take applications and forward them to the state employment office, which help find jobs for the teenagers.

Meanwhile, scientists and technicians at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory here said there were three primary reasons for the decision to give Surveyor a two-day break form its picture-

taking duties.

Fatigue of the operators who have been busy guiding the spacecraft’s activities since it made its “perfect” soft landing on the moon last Wednes-.

short business meeting was held ; day. j

When they complete their narratives, the astronauts plan to fly back to Houston for talks with project engineers and reunions with their families. They are scheduled to return to Hous-

ton Friday.

and then the group divided into two work crews. Fence crew foreman was Charles Skelton with Rue McCollough, Bill Fletcher, Kelsie Warne, and Bob Moore working with him stretching and stapling fence. The other crew worked on the arena fence; Hershel Skinner kept one electric saw in operation edging the boards and cutting them in proper lengths. Bill and Morris Williams alternated with sawing, measuring and digging post holes with the tractor digger. Mary Jordan and other ladies helped to hold the boards and other light tasks. Lucy and Gracia rode their horses and drug the boards and posts (rail road ties) where they were needed. Don Jefferies, John Higgens, Larry Ensor, Darrel Burdette, Benton Giltz and Chelsey Jordan set and tamped the posts and nailed on the boards. Sharon and Anita kept the workers supplied with cool drinks. The teen age boys enjoyed riding their Hondas through the trails. There were lots of tired people that evening. And mention should be made of that mound of dirt the tots have taken for a race track for their little trucks and cars. The grape vines that next age group use to swing on and play Tarzan. They are a happy lot and end up so dirty their parents hardly claim

them.

Several were absent due to vacation trips, horse shows and Riaybe some because they are Bred of so much work. Most £f that is done now and we dan really start to enjoy the ftace. The camping spot is one ft the nicest around If a person likes to be away from the crowds and likes the quiet of •te woods.

During its five picture-taking missions since landing, the craft has relayed 4,000 “beautifully clear” television pictures. In its final mission before the vacation which began early Tuesday morning. Surveyor transmitted 1,048 photos afterresponding to more than 9,345 commands from the JPL.

The board, apparently swayed by the persuasive plea of the lawyer, unanimously granted the request of the brothers, who had stood mute during the

hearing.

“But,” added

James Harvey, “If you ever come back here, you’re out of luck. Understand?” “Yes, sir,” the “deaf” brother replied. The board members chuckled and granted the request any-

way.
