'That Was A Beautiful One'
Antares Lands On Moon Fra Mauro 'Really Wild'
SPACE CENTER, Houston (UPI)-Apollon 14 astronauts Alan B. Shepard and Edgar D. Mitchell surmounted a computer problem today and manually flew their spacecraft to a bullseye landing on a gentle slope in a valley on the moon.
"That was a beautiful one," said Mitchell, whose jubilation increased when Earth control told them their spacecraft systems were normal.
Shepard and Mitchell threaded their way into an ancient, crater-scarred lunar valley in their landing ship Antares. They defy set it down after four and a half days of flight.
Flying alone in lunar orbit, red-haired Stuart A. Roosa was free to play his Johnny Cash tapes—of which mission commander Jeffrey S. Cobb would compose companions rejoin him Saturday afternoon
for the trip home
It was America's first landing in the lunar aplands and its most difficult. Apollo 12, the mission to orbit the moon, set down on the relatively smooth Moon surface in 1969, about four months after Neil A. Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin made man's first lunar voyage. 20, 1969, on the flat Sea of Tranquility.
The when Armstrong's foot first touched the door, he said: "That one's snake up for a trap." The other one, Apollo 14 to fulfill the goals of the aborted Apollo 13 mission and extend that "step" of Armstrong.
Shepard, America's first man in space whose trip to the moon was delayed a decade because of a middle ear disorder, and his rookie companion, Mitchell, plan to spend
They will collect rocks, believed to be up to 5 billion years old, from the rim of cone crater, set up an atomic powered scientific machine to make two mongolows up to five hours each.
They will blast off the moon Saturday afternoon and rejoin Rosca for the return trip.
Ground controllers allowed Shepard and Mitchell to cut loose from Roosa's command ship after they checked out one last nagging hole about one of Antares' 8V-battery units.
Allies Mass 50,000 Troops To Crush Red Sanctuaries
Roosa, who will have to remain in orbit when Shepard and Mitchell explore the moon, nonetheless got a good view of the moon as 14 skimmed low over its jagged crater.

SAIGON (UP1) - The United States and South Vietnam massed nearly 50,000 men Thursday in giant twin tanks to crush Communist sanctuaries and supply lines in
The Saigon government claimed that its forces in Cambodia scored their biggest victory of the year and were poised to strike into Laos.
The allied operation in northwestern South, Vietnam and Cambodia was believed to be the result of the Chinese warships' warnings from Feking that mainland China would support the Communists 'until final victory.
South Vietnamese troops reported their major victory of the year took place Thursday, in the Cambodian drive, which involved the 100-300-man Saigon force operating in
Military spokesman said the South Vietnamese killed 69 Communists in a battle 18 miles east of the Cambodian provincial capital and 15 miles from the Vietnamese border.
It was the largest kill of Communists reported by Saigon either in Cambodia or South Vietnam since government troops last dead December 29, in a battle in the same area.
Included in the big northern task force, which was halted within sight of the Laotian frontier, were 9,000 Americans and 20,000 South Vietnamese who started the offensive six days ago. Casualties were reported very fine with no American battle deaths in the first operation, which was carried out under strict secrecy lifted only Thursday morning.
Officials in Saigon continued to keep silent on the possible incursion into Laos, but the commander of South Vietnam's airborne division at the Laotian border said, "We are ordered to evacuate Losi if we were ordered to." The U.S. State department did not rule out such a possibility.
The United States reaffirmed that no U.S. ground troops would participate if a drive into Laos was ordered and said no American ground troops had crossed into Cambodia in the new offence there. The United States has not ruled out air support, however.
Prince Souphanouvong, the Laotian Communist leader, appealed to neutralist Laotian Premier Prince Souvannavong Phouma to reopen the nuclear deal with Laos, a Pathet Lao news broadcast said.
News of the sweep, called Operation Dewey Canyon II, had been withheld for security reasons for six days under the tightest news embargo of the Indochina War.
The South Vietnamese thrust into Cambodia began early Thursday, spokesman said, when 11,000 Saigon troops pushed across the border into the Fishhook section joining 8,000 more Vietnamese and about 3,000 Cambodians in a conflict that was addressed in clearing out Communist sanctuaries.
Further south, another 1,500 South Vietnamese drove into Cambodia about 25 miles northwest of Phnom Penh.
Vietnamese forces in Cambodia to 21,000 men—the highest level since last spring's combined allied offensive which included U.S. troops.
Whether the orders for a cross-border trade were worth commuting, High Rank officials said sources said three days that the final decision on a L.A. locust incursion was left to President Nixon because of its timing.
In Washington, the State Department declined唐朝 to deny the possibility of a possible invasion.
"It's really something," he said. "It's just like you could reach out and touch it."
State Department press officer Robert J. McCloskey replied with a "no comment" when asked that troops had crossed into Laos.
Ground controllers told Roosa that his family was outside their home near Houston looking up at a pale silver "Fra Mauro moon."
That was Shepard and Mitchell's target on the moon—the Fra Maru uplands where Apollo 13 was headed when it ran into trouble. Seen from the earth, their landing area was right along the line between dark and light, and slightly below the lunar equator.
Their excitement began to mount when they first arrived in a record low lunar orbit and went into a plunge.
Despite the excitement of the approaching landing, the three astronauts reported when they awoke about a 15 p.m. that they each received for six hours in lunar orbit and felt good.
"We went to bed all healthy-no-rows, no pains. We jetted up the same way," Roosa reported.

Budget requests by 75 student organizations have been submitted to the Student Senate, David Miller, Eudora senior and Senate treasurer, said Thursday.
Miller said these deadlines not might be met because of the petition calling for a new court order.
Bill Ebert, student body president, will now develop a budget for fiscal year 1979 to fund the college's fee money, if the present enactment on appropriations is not overruned by a student loan.
Miller projected that school and department groups would get $6,296.58; intramural and extramural sports and sports clubs would get $13,470.24; donations and the Senate would get $124.891.98.
The rest of the activity fee money, Miller said, has been allocated to the University Daily Kansan, the University Theatre and the Concert Course Series.

According to the enactment on appropriations, the budget should be submitted to the Finance and Auditing committee by March 16, and cleared to the Senate floor by March 10.
After Ebert draws up the budget, he will submit it to the Senate. From there the budget will be approved by the House Auditing committee, who will hold hearings. The budget would then have to be approved.
Gardenhire posted $1,000 bond on a charge of simple assault.

At present there is still a split among facul-

chancellor for the University of Kansas Medical Center indicates that there will be a change in attitude towards student interest at campus, Chancellor E. Laurence Schultz.
"I don't think the student representation problem was bridged as well at the Medical Center as it was here. I hear less from the Lawrence professors who are opposed to 20 per cent student representation than I dcm from the Kansas City faculty," he said.
Although there are more tensions at the Medical Center, Chalkers said, the instruction is to select a new vice chancellor for the Kansas City campus would be an aid to
In late April of last year Chalmers appointed an eleven-member search committee to find a new chancellor for health affairs, and he succeeded Vice Chancellor Dr. Charles E. Bruckett.
Members represent the hospital administration, the senior and junior clinical faculties, the nursing education program and the medical faculty. The committee are the chairman of the clinical department, representing medicine; a practicing physician; the chairman of the house staff committee, representing the nurse, the student, the anatomy and a fourth year medical student.
The Chancellor said, "I believe strongly that this is a critical change paralleling my own appointment." He said the appointment of a committee to investigate the new law was an appropriately necessary step.
"However, within a week or two we will have made an announcement. The Medical Center is in the throes of reorganization but we are confident that our ablence until the new vice chancellor announces."
Other problems faced on the Kansas City Campus are staller to those we find here, in fact, because the students are working under the same kind of budget restrictions, but different aspects of the campus require different training.
He explained that the Kansas City campus did not have our space problems because it
had a limited enrollment. However, there was
tadle with obsolescence, he said.
The extent of the Medical Center's budget is dependent on the interests of the state legislature.
The Medical Center is also seeking restoration of funds. Chalmers said that when it was known when the funds would become available a decision would be made to send it to the Medical Center could proceed on this basis and would be below the projected required minimum.
Two particular programs that might be affected are the extension of the internship program to Wichita and the establishment of an on-campus calendar-three year medical program.
Plant Explodes; 11 Injured
VERNON, Calif. (UPI)—An explosion ripped through an asphalt plant in this Los Angeles suburb Thursday knocking down five homes and injuring 11 people, five of them critically.
Eighteen fire units fought a resulting blaze as the injured were taken to nearby hospitals. The fire was caused by a plosion was caused by a malfunction in a circulation pump at the Johns Manville plant. Increased heat turned 4,000 gallons of liquid into a gas that was probably ignited by an electric spark.

Rolls-Royce Out of Gas; Government Seeking Help
LONDON (UP1) - Rolls-Koyce, whose fine-tuned automobiles have long been a prestige symbol of British engineering skills, ran out of gas Thursday after 65 years.
The firm and it went broke because of skyrocketing costs in building jet engines for Lockheed Aircraft Corp, an American firm. The company was forced by action of the U.S. government this week.
Rolly-Royce announced that it had insufficient funds to cover its liabilities and that it will cease operations.
The British government immediately announced it would nationalize the company's defense and foreign aviation operations, but the famous automobile faces extinction.
The government said it is undertaking urgent discussions with the U.S. government and Lockheed about a contract under which Rolls-Royce was to build as many as 180 new RB211-22 jet engines for Lockheed's 250-seat Tristar transport jet.
Only this week Lockbeek itself was rescued
from the same fate as Rolls-Royce through an
airlift.
Rolls-Royce officials estimated the engines for Lockheed would have been worth $2.4 million.
They said that skrowing costs of the H212-22 project topped Rolls-Royce, and their team's budget for the project was $60 million.
