Tiros Can't Get USSR Pictures
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The Federal Space Agency disclosed today that a mechanical failure abrad the Tiros I weather satellite is preventing it from taking detailed cloud pictures over Russia.
T. Keith Glennan, director of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), said at a news conference that the weather satellite "is working successfully and well."
But he added that since Saturday evening, the satellite's clock timer governing operation of one of the cameras has not been working properly.
THE CAMERA involved was a narrow angle, "high resolution" device designed to obtain the clearest pictures.
As a result of the timer's failure, Glennan said, this camera has been able to take pictures only on direct command over Hawaii and adjacent Pacific areas and over New Jersey and the surrounding region of the Atlantic seaboard.
This means that only the larger of the two television cameras, the so-called low resolution device, has been instructed since Saturday evening to take cloud pictures as the satellite passed over Russia, China and elsewhere in the Far East. Tiros was successfully launched last Friday morning.
PICTURES TAKEN by the large TV camera are too diffuse to show any details of objects on the ground.
Since its launching, Tiros has made 101 trips around the world at an altitude of about 450 miles and has taken hundreds of photographs which have been transmitted electronically to ground stations at Ft. Monmouth, N.J., and Kaena Point, Hawaii.
Glennan said the experiment "has performed exceedingly well."
"We have in fact been embarrassed by the wealth of photographic material which has been received." Glennan said.
Humphrey in W. Virginia
CHARLESTOWN, W. Va. —(UPI) Democratic Presidential hopeful Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota launched a three-day bus tour of southern West Virginia today to gain support for the state's May 10 primary election.
Humphrey flew here yesterday and left this morning for Beckley where a rally is scheduled tonight. The Minnesota Democrat will visit many parts of southern West Virginia during his three-day tour. His tour today included stops at several small mining communities in Kanawha and Raleigh counties.
Sen. John Kennedy is due to arrive in West Virginia Monday. Kennedy defeated Humphrey by more than 100,000 votes in the Wisconsin primary Tuesday.
Before leaving Washington Thursday, Humphrey said the West Virginia primary is important because of its "psychological impact."
The Minnesota Senator said if he wins, it won't mean that he will get the nomination. Neither will a victory for Kennedy clinch the nomination for the Senator from New England. Humphrey said.
Humphrey said if he loses in West Virginia, he would not be "killed off." However, he added that he would be "maimed" by a loss to Kennedy in the mountain state.
Klaus Berger, professor of art history, will give a public lecture at 4 p.m. Monday on "Paris and the Louvre."
Paris Art Is Subject Of Public Lecture
Prof. Berger's talk is the second of a series of lectures on "Great Cities and Their Art" sponsored by the Museum of Art. The talk will be given in the Spooner Lecture Room of the art museum.

Negro Colleges Plan Boycott in Mississippi
Friday, April 8. 1960
By United Press International
Jones and Alfred Cook, president of the Campbell student body, announced the proposed week-long boycott at a news conference. Campbell College is supported by the African Methodist Church.
"Demonstrations seem to antagonize rather than harmonize," said Charles A. Jones, dean of the seminary of Campbell College in Jackson.
Negro college leaders in Mississippi, the only Southern state so far free from Negro sitdown demonstrations, announced plans today for a one-week boycott of white business firms in the capital city of Jackson.
They emphasized that the bovett, which they said will last all of next week, will not be accompanied by sitdowns or other demonstrations.
The purpose of the boycott, they said, is to show that Negroes are not satisfied with conditions in Mississippi.

"The entire Negro community has been informed of the boycott through a door-to-door campaign boy students." Jones said.
In Rock Hill, S.C., a third Negro was convicted on breach of peace charges in connection with a March 15 anti-segregation demonstration in which 70 Negroes were arrested. Bobby Collier of Greenville was sentenced to $35 or 30 days.
who has quarterbacked lunch counter protests in Columbia, called for an Easter buying boycott of all stores in the South Carolina capital that maintain segregated lunch counters. The student, David Carter of Benedict College, was one of several arrested in recent weeks in sitdown demonstrations. He proposed that money saved by Negroes because of the boycott be contributed to defense of those arrested.
In Nashville, Tenn., merchants and leaders of the sitdown movement planned to meet tomorrow in an effort to work out an agreement on lunch counter seating.
