D. Mitchell, fielded questions relayed to him by ground control for a 30-minute news
Shepard said the space fliers were bringing back a wealth of geological and photographic material, and alternately referred to the earth as a 'resounding' and 'smashing' success.
He said that he and Mitchell got to within 100 yards of the top of Cone Crater, their chief objective on the lunar surface, and could have flown up or down into the crater or up rocks and carry out other experiments.
"I AGREE WITH Al," Mitchell said. "I think we were within 100 to 189 yards of the rim. Although it was a disappointment not only for me, I think we accomplished our objectives."
Shepard said he and Mitchell had no trouble with fatigue or visibility on the lunar surface.
"I gave a few minutes to look around, we insured out where we were, but we tried to do it quickly and efficiently," she said.
"I don't believe we were disoriented or host in any time," Shephard said. "It was a just realization."

18-Year-Old Vote Clears Legislature
SPECIAL
TOPEKA-The proposed constitutional amendment to give 18-year-olds the vote in state and local elections was passed in both the House and Senate Monday. The amendment picked up only one opposing vote in each body.
The final decision on the amendment will be made by Kiasaas voters in a special election
The proposal, which also lowers the residency requirements for voters from 45 to 30 days, was approved in the House's morning session 115-1 and in the afternoon session by the Senate 37-1. It also picked up the two-thirds majority needed for it to carry.
The Senate, which passed the amendment last week, gave final approval of the amendment concurring on a title change and asserting that it was advised by the attorney general.
War Critics Upset
The opponents of the proposal were Senator Charles Hinchley, D-Kansas City and Senator Robert Scales, D-New York.
In explaining his dissenting vote, Uruhui said that a high concentration of students could control a city election and that he would not approve the 18-year-old vote until laws were passed to control the votes of students who were not of a permanent residence.
Laos Incursion Evokes Debate From Senators
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The U.S. supported incursion by the South Vietnamese into Laos brought renewed demands Monday that the U.S. impose restrictions on U.S. activity in Indochina.
Chairman J. William Fulbright of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, a war crise, said "it would be logical to go on farther than we could in North Vietnam if the Laos incursion failed.
He called Secretary of State William P. Rogers to testify at a closed meeting of his committee on Tuesday morning. Rogers was expected to be questioned about his failure to tell the committee of the impending Laos operation at his last appearance on Jan. 28.
The White House indicated Monday that the basic decision to go into Laos was made before Jan. 28 and that it had been discussed for some time before that.
THE ADMINISTRATION, which said the South Vietnamese invasion was "consistent with the facts," asked Congress, who said the operation was necessary for the protection of U.S. troops.
The State Department said in a statement: "The Vietnamese forces will move in against the enemy on the ground to deny their sanctuaries and to disrupt the main artery of supplies he has been able to use so effectively against the North and South Vietnamese forces in the past."

"We don't know who the leadership is," he said.

Allied Forces in Laos Meet Stiff Opposition
SAIGON (UPI)-U.S. and South Vietnamese forces encountered stiff opposition daylong in opening a combined aerial and land attack against the Communist Chi Minh supply train.
Six American helicopters were reported shot down and two Americans killed in the first hours of the invasion. There were no immediate reports of South Vietnamese casualties, although contact was reported by Vietnamese troops soon after the crossing.
A force of 5,000 South Vietnam troops with tanks and armored cars moved into Laos as they began to land in helicopters flown by Americans. More than 200 U.S. fight-armed and helicopters flew tactical support for the invading force over Laos before resuming positions in Laos from across the border
The Laotian chief of state, Prince Souvanna Phouma, protested the invasion in a statement in Vientiane and demanded immediate withdrawal of all foreign troops, including North Vietnam's, from his neutral country.
The invasion began at daybreak, columns of South Vietnamese troops with armored cars and tanks moving down Highway 9 from Tay Ninh and across the Xe Don River into Jasmine.

KU Participation Is Urged in City Election
By TED ILIFF
With the present interest in student elections on the KU campus, the University community may be ignoring another local interest. The effects of affects on the lives of KU students and faculty.
The election for Lawrence city commissioners will be held in November, and the seats are to be filled, and a state constitutional amendment concerning local and state voting for 18-year-olds will probably be approved.
The city commission's responsibilities include recommendation of tax measures (such as the previously defeated wheel tax on gasoline) and the enforcement of city ordinances such as housing and pollution codes, approval of the city budget, setting salaries and policies for the Lawrence Police Department and, as known from last spring, calling curfews.
So why should the election concern the KU community? What are KU interests in a city elected by voters?
Rich Von Ende, Lawrence graduate student and vice chairman of SenEx, is one of several
A substantial turnout from the KU community in the city election, which was not only KU only but also that KU is cerned with city affairs, but their vote could also play an important part in passage of the law.
"The University, especially the students, have usually failed to get themselves involved in any way."
KU spokesmen interested in the city election.
Von Ende says he believes now is the time for persons connected with the University to get involved with city affairs.

Von Ende noted the current trend toward student involvement in affairs affecting them, and he said students should now direct those interests to city policy making.

Voter turnout for recent municipal elections has been low. In the last city election, the highest vote total for a commissioner was 3,900; the lowest winner polled 3,200 votes.
Von Ende estimates that at least 6,000 potential voters are connected directly with KU, counting seniors, graduate students and faculty.
sure thing, and some state politicians are saying it may not pass," said Von Ende.
"Everyone over 21 years old at KU should register and vote to give younger students a chance to vote in the new local election. We need it with just national voting privileges for them with just national voting."
The University already has at least one
policy for its interests within the city's

Walker, officially titled administrative aid to the city manager for community relations, said students and faculty could have a numerical significance in the city election.
"It would be an unfortunate paradox if KU students would pass up this opportunity to directly participate in this election," he said, and would local developments in the last year should evoke the KU community to seek more self determination in the city government.
"The local political scene has changed dramatically, and the University has emerged as a major center for academic activity."
Walker won't comment on the status of his position, but his appointment has sparked
"Just look at the records of the local and state government in the last year. It is surprising how many decisions have dealt directly with KU."
There is also a concern in the KU and city communities that the recent turmoil could generate a conservative backlash in the city. A large KU turbine could offset such a trend.
controversy in the Lawrence community, and some commissioners and University officials indicate the political posture of the new governor to affect Walker's chance for keeping his job.
All a person needs to register is proof of being at least 21 years old, and he must show he has lived in Kansas for at least six months and at his present address for at least 30 days.
So the political and philosophical character of the new commission will be determined by the work of the committee.
Von Ende and Walker said eligible voters can register at the city clerk's office in City Hall until Feb. 16. After the March 9 primary, voters may register until April 15.
The two hold-over commissioners balance each other politically. J. R. Pullman, a local businessman, is considered liberal; John Erick is considered conservative.
Von Ende added that former Kansas Atty, Gent. Kent Frizzell had reaffirmed that the voting requirements were legal, based on a Kansas attorney general ruling in 1964.
