2The Daily Tar HeelTuesday, April 5, 1983 All systems go as shuttle lifts off Brii Hie Associated Press CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. With jet stream winds slacken ing, Challenger was poised today to shrug off two-and-one-half months of troubles and rocket into orbit as the second ship in America's space shuttle fleet. Meteorologists signaled a go-ahead in midmorning and the countdown proceeded toward a liftoff at 1:30 p.m. EST. About the same time, the four astronauts who will fly the $1.2 billion ship were awakened in crew quarters, ate the traditional launch-morning breakfast of steak and eggs and underwent a brief medical exam before heading for the launch pad. Wearing cotton overalls and white space helmets bearing the . National Aeronatucis and Space Administration logo, the quartet slipped into Challenger's cockpit two hours before the planned launch and began checking the craft's systems. The first aboard was the commander, Paul Weitz, 50, followed by Air Force Col. Karol Bobko, 45, the pilot, and mission specialists Story Musgrave, 47, a medical doctor, and Donald Peterson, 49, an engineer. As liftoff n eared, tens of thousands of people, many of them Easter vacationers, gathered at viewing points along nearby beaches, rivers and highways to observe Challenger's departure on a beautiful spring day. Police said the turnout appeared smaller than for past launches. "A decision has been made that we are 'go' for launch," NASA spokesman Hugh Harris announced at 9:15 a.m., after scientists studied the data gathered by Air Force weather balloons that sampled the jet stream. Midmorning velocities at 45,000 feet were 105 mph. If the winds were too turbulent they could put dangerous stress on the orbiter during its ascent from the launch pad. Starting before dawn, NASA crews filled the shuttle's peach colored external fuel tank with 383,000 gallons of liquid hydrogen with 141,000 gallons of liquid oxygen. The astronauts are to remain in orbit five days, thoroughly checking Challenger's sytems, just as astronauts John Young and Robert Crippen did two years ago" when they took the first shut tle, Columbia, into space for its inaugural spin. "Our job is to certify Challenger for routine space missions," Weitz said recently.

THE FLEMING CENTER BFLY The Associated Press AMMAN, Jordan King Hussein will not offer to represent Palestinians in talks with Israel based on President Reagan's peace plan, sources close to discussions between' the Jordan monarch and PLO chief Yasser Arafat said Monday. " The source, who spoke on condition that henot be identified, said the Palestine Liberation Organization chairman met with top aides in his 15-member executive committee, then told Hussein he could not allow him to negotiate on the PLO's behalf. Arafat has been in Amman since Thursday for talks with Hussein, who has been described by U.S. diplomats as willing to talk with Israel but not without permission from the PLO. The guerrilla organization claims it is the sole representative of the 1.3 million Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank of the Jordan River and Gaza Strip. : FRANKFURT, West Germany Four days of Easter weekend nuclear protests in West German cities ended Monday night in a carnival atmosphere. Organizers claimed a turnout of 450,000 the biggest in the four days for the finale. Officials said the estimate appeared inflated but did not give one of then own. Despite chilly temperatures and sporadic rain, opponents of the deploy ment of U.S. nuclear missiles in West Germany late this year crowded into the major cities on foot and roller skates, bicycles, trains, buses and even in wheelchairs for the holiday weekend's last round of demonstrations. The organizers estimated the earlier turnouts a? iO.uuo on Friday, 75,000 on Saturday and 200,000 on Sunday. ATLANTA The political heirs of the Rev. Martin Lurther King Jr. on Mon day called for a mass "coalition of con science" to challenge Reagan ad ministration policies, but attendance was thin at rallies in several cities mark ing the 15th anniversary of the civil rights leader's assassination. Leaders of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference announced plans for a mass march on Washington Aug. 27, the 20th anniversary of King's famous "I have a dream" speech in the nation's capital. "We don't look like many, but we moved this nation once and we can do it again," the Rev. C.T. Vivian, an SCLC board member, said in an apparent reference to the crowd of about 250 people at a "jobs and peace" rally at the Atlanta federal building. 7 tmrs- O sr. cMmto GtXP TAW ? i ill finance From page 1 Randall Parker (District 14) suggested the committee put off action on the loan request until Phoenix representatives were available to provide a more com plete explanation.
