I I Thursday. February 23. I98l' THE DAILY TAH HEEL X Missile Fails To Separate; cientists WASHINGTON (UPI) Ameri ca's new Mutt-and-Jeff satellites failed to separate or go into a proper orbit, scientists announ ced Wednesday. But they said the mishap would not delay plans to put up a "radio star" navigator system next year to guide ships in all kinds of wea ther. . The 250-pound Transit III-B satellite and the 54-pound Lofti sphere it carried did not break apart in space, the Johns Hop kins Applied Physics Labora tory said in Skagsville, Md. The piggyback satellites also failed to separate from the top half of the two-stage Thor-Abel-Star rocket which hurled them aloft Tuesday night from Cape Canaveral, Fla. Despite the malfunctions, both satellites are broadcasting weak radio signals and scientists termed the shot a "qualified success." Will Burn Up Soon The satellites were expected to burn up in the atmosphere in a few weeks instead of circl ing the earth for years as plan ned. This is because they are in an elongated orbit ranging from 104 miles to 617 miles above the earth instead of the intended near-circular orbit 500 miles up. Transit III-B is an advanced test model of the navigation satellite system the United States hopes to have in opera tion in 1962 to give ships at sea their exact location even when bad weather obscures the stars. Four Transit "radio stars" would be required to cover the world. The Lofti sphere is designed to test the transmission of very low frequency radio signals which could be used for reliable communications with subma rines operating beneath the sur face. Dr. Richard B. Kershner, space research director for Johns Hop kins, which developed the satel lites, said Wednesday's disap pointment would not set back the timetable for the Transit navigation network. But he conceded any new failures .jcvould have this effect. Will Launch More lie said, several more experi mental satellites would "be launched before the first oper ating model was fired aloft. Transit III-B has broadcast to 'Sleek'- Hudson Heads The Males As Worst-Dressed NEW YORK (UPI) Rock Hudson heads a newly compiled list of the world's "10 worst dressed men." The compiler of the list, hair stylist Mr. Dante, says the movie star's hair style js "too feminine and too sleek." Cuba's Premier Fidel Castro could use a shave as well as a hair-cut, Dante says. Others on the list: Sen. Everett Dirksen, (Rep.) 111.; Princess Margaret's hus band, Antony Armstrong-Jones; Elvis Presley: TV cowboy Jim Arness; actor Lloyd Bridges; tennis player Pancho Gonzales. j ii in.

Only in S outhern Rhodesia does it appear to have a chance of survival and even there it is under attack. The idea of "partnership, embodied in the Central African Federation in 1953, is that those qualified, white or black, should vote and rule. In practice, that has meant the white, but . the theory is that more and more Africans will qualify until there is full non-racial partnership. But from the start African Nationalists have charged that the federation was an instru ment of "white domination." And for Southern Rhodesian Prime Minister Sir Edgar Whitehead, African National ism and racial partnership are incompatible. Took Another Step Southern Rhodesia took an other step along the partnership road at the recent constitu tional conference in Salisbury. The agreement reached there would keep the same high edu cational and property qualifica tions for the main "A" voters i " ,1411.1.' m 1111 1 iijiijiiih 1 1 in 1 wi 1 ii. 1 I" 11 1 mm ijiiniiiniwii . f . ? 1 lxjoiev ic-v . -:.-,..- -john Patrick- richaro ouine 9 tPAfciiouiaKiija LAST DAY said the poor orbit and failure to break apart would hinder many test objectives.

Each roll would have some effect on the election of each other's candidates. The; new constitution also will contain a bill of rights out lawing future discriminatory legislation. It would not repeal present laws, however, and Whitehead said he was against legislating the color bar out of existence. He said he believed economic factors eventually would eliminate it in Southern Rhodesia. Whitehead added that by the time enough Africans were qualified for the upper voters roll to put an African majority into the Southern Rhodesian parliament years from now it would not matter whether the majority was black or white. But racial partnership in Southern Rhodesia goes too fast for many whites and too slow for many Africans. T.V. Schedules WRAL.

Each Saturday from 10 to 11 a.m., members of the new Chapel Hill Young People's Or chestra gather at Hill Hall. "The orchestra is real cool," a young boy reported to hisl father upon his return from re hearsal one day. The Young People's Orches tra has only met three times, but the students are fully en joying this . new experience where they are actually part of an orchestral group. Heretofore, the students have had no opportunity to play with one another. "It is such a pleas ure to play with people who really know what they are doing," reports Peter Kacher gis, a young student of the flute. Students of junior high through senior high school age are participants in the orches tral group which is being di rected by Mrs. Dorothy Alden of Chapel Hill. Mrs. Alden is the wife of Edgar Alden, asso ciate professor of music at the University of North Carolina. She has had much experience in ensemble directing. Presently, there are only two children's orchestral groups in the state. In addition to the one here in Chapel Hill, there is a children's orchestra in Davidson, to . which students from miles around the area travel for re hearsals. The students who rehearse at Hill Hall here are gaining ex perience which may lead them to consider the possibility of becoming future musicians. The purpose of the ensemble group is to give the students a chance to further the, knowledge they have acquired through indi vidual music lessons. , Most of the young musicians are from Chapel Hill, although there are several students from Durham and Ilillsboro who are in the orchestra , Mason To Play With Symphony Member of the piano depart ment of the Music Faculty at UNC, Dr. Wilton Mason is one of the seven adult soloists with the North Carolina Symphony for this season. A graduate of UNC, Dr. Mason received his Ph.D. here in 1949. He also studied at Juil lard and in Italy under a Ford Foundation Fellowship in 1955 56. Dr. Mason is a member of Phi Beta Kappa and the Order of the Golden Fleece at UNC; Director of the Institute of Folk Music at UNC; and President of the Southeastern Chapter of the American Musicological Society. Dr. Mason will play Con certo for Piano and Orchestra No. II in F Minor by Chopin with the Symphony.

D A cinnniiiiis itr A: iFlme By WILLIAM J. EATON United Press International WASHINGTON The Kenne dy administration worked with out success Wednesday to end the crippling five-day-old air line strike. Flight engineers in dicated they would return to work only if western airlines rehired 130 men who were dis missed Tuesday. Labor Secretary Arthur J. Goldberg looked glum after an hour spent with union officials explaining the government's peace formula. He wants the men to go back to the planes while a presidential commission investigates causes of the walk out. The Flight Engineers Inter national Association FEIA said in a statement that "the mem bership indicated it will not re turn to Work" unless Western Airlines promises not to disci pline the strikers. The union also said it wanted to clarify the purposes of Presi dent Kennedy's three-man com mission. But one of the main barriers appeared to be the Western de cision, announced Tuesday, to dismiss the 130 flight engineers and replace them as fast as pos sible with pilots. Maintains Token Service Western, along with Pan Am erican and .National Airlines, still maintains token service. American, Eastern and Trans- US Policy On Laos Gets Abrupt Change By PHIL NEWSOM j UPI Foreign News Analyst United States policy toward the little Southeast Asia king dom of Laos has undergone an abrupt change of course. From all-out support of the rightist Laotian government which since . last November has been battling the Red-support ed forces of the Laotian Pathet Lao, this week it suddenly en dorsed a proposal for a neutral Laos whose government, by tac it understanding, would include Communist representatives. By making the switch, the Kennedy administration turned its back on the course which had been followed by President Eisenhower and his secretary of state, Christian Herter, and endorsed the view which had been held all along by Great Britain and France. Neutrals Favored It simply came with United States endorsement of a pro posal by Laotian King Savang Vathana for a neutral Laos pro tected against outside interven tion by a watch-dog commission of three neutral nations Cam bodia, Malaya and Burma. While the civil war has gone on intermittently since the Ge neva conference of 1954, the current crisis dates from Aug. 9, 190, when an army coup led by Capt. Kong Le toppled a pro - Western government gov 3rnment and established an avowedly neutral government headed by Prince Souvanna Phouma. American action was immedi ate and unfriendly. It opposed Souvanna Phou na's negotiations to bring the Pathet Lao into his government. It openly supported strongman Gen. Phoumi Nosavan's opposi tion to Communist participation in the Souvanna Phouma gov STUDENT WEEKEND Men's CREW Irregulars of Interwoven Reg. $1.50 Hose.

Goldberg said Tuesday that he had obtained a promise from five of the airlines that they wouldn't discipline the strikers. Western was not mentioned. The union said its member ship wanted to know "whether or not Western Airlines is in or out of the agreement." It also said "There is no written prom ise from the airlines concerning law suits and recrimination pro ceedings." Goldberg, meanwhile, told re porters he would ask Terry Drinkwater, Western's presi dent, to rescind the firing or der and also to give assurances that the airline's flight engi neers would not be disciplined if they immediately, returned to work. The walkout of the 2,700 flight engineers was touched off by a National Mediation, Board ruling last Feb. 6, which order ed United Air Lines flight en gineers and pilots to vote for a single union. The flight engineers contend this will mean their own union will be swallowed by the larger Air Lines Pilots Association, with consequent loss of jobs and seniority. Would Study Ruling Under the terms of Gold berg's peace plan, the three-man commission would study the National Mediation Board rul ing to see how it would affect ernment. Critical Allies When Prince Boun Oum, with Phoumi Nosavan's help, pro claimed himself head of a new government, he quickly won U. S. recognition and military aid. Strategically, Laos protects the flank of Thailand and South Vietnam. But its slow and sleepy people are not of the tough stuff to make strong al lies, and it appears now the best the U. S. can hope for is a compromise. Language House To Be Featured In Summer Meet A language house, where only French may be spoken, will be a feature of the French lan guage institute to be offered to elementary and high school teachers on the Carolina campus this summer. The house will enable par ticipants of the summer program to live in a French atmosphere. French natives will help with the running of the house and encourage French conversation. Although no actual location has been decided upon yet, this is the first time a project of this kind has been undertaken by the University Made possible by a grant under the National Defense Education Act of 1958, the lan guage institute will be attended by 45 teachers selected to par ticipate. It will be directed by Dr. George B. Daniel, assistant professor of French. The house will be open from June 27 to August 12, the time the institute is in progress.

The union's statement said, however, "We do not yet know what the authority of this corn mission will be. We must be able to tell the men just what effect this recommendation by this commission will have upon the Mediation Board ruling of Feb. 6." Neutral Laos Urged The Di-Phi voted to approve the neutralization of Laos unanimously in its . meeting Tuesday night. The bill scored U.S. aid policy to Laos and called for a new coalition government under the supervision of the International Control Commission. Rep. Black, who introduced the bill, pointed , out that ter mination of U.S. aid funds at a critical point in the recent political crisis aided the over throw of the legal government by right-wing groups.

FRANKLIN ST. o-n an The flight engineers polled their 2,700 members Tue.-day night to see whether or not they wanted to return to work under the terms of Goldberg's formu la, which would freeze the stat us quo for 90 days. But they declined to announce the results of the vote until tin y had received clarification of the Western Airlines decision as well as the status of the com mission. strongly that such interference in Laotian affairs probably led to subsequent Soviet interven tion in Laos. After the debate, the meeting took on a lighter tone. The only lady member of the society, Mary J. Reid, was recognized by Critic Glen Johnson for hav ing reached the "ripe" age of "21 plus 3." Rep. David Price asked for official recognition of the occa sion. The Society responded by officially proclaiming Miss Rcid "the fair flower of the Society." Miss Reid responded with a short speech of appreciation. ON CAMPUS $3.00 $2.00 o $3 00 $3.00 & $4.00 $1.99 $2.00 $14.99 $2.00 $7.00 $17.00 NOW PLAYING - Franklin and Columbia Sts.
