Space Dog Laika Reported Dead
LONDON — (UP) — The Communist party newspaper L'Unita said today in Rome that space dog Laika is dead, poisoned by the last bit of food aboard the dying Sputnik II.
The only word direct from Moscow was that the "medical and biological observations have been completed" on the earth satellite. This was a strong indication the animal was dead.
Bids on the Stouffer Place addition will be taken Nov. 21, J. J. Wilson, director of dormitories, said Friday.
The addition, similar to the present 120 unit married student development at 19th and Iowa streets, will be built northeast of the present site. It is hoped the addition will be ready for occupancy in September, Mr. Wilson said.
Moscow radio said only the telemetric instruments aboard the second satellite had finished their operations and that all further observations of the satellite would be visual.
This meant the batteries probably had failed aboard Sputnik II a little more than a week after it was sent into space 1,200 miles above the earth. With the end of power supply would be the end of radio signals—and the electrical circuit which kept Laika air conditioned and fed.
He also said that plans to take bids on the construction of Lewis Hall January 15th to 20th. Lewis Hall, a seven-floor dormitory housing 432 men, will be built at 15th and Iowa streets.
Meanwhile in Washington deputy defense secretary Donald A. Quarles said the United States has rockets as powerful as the missile apparently used by Russia to launch its second earth satellite.
Bids Open Nov. 21 On Stouffer Place
The Governor's budget request to the last legislature was 213-million dollars. The new request will possibly total 290 to 296-million dollars
State agencies which have appeared during the first week of budget hearings all have asked for increases. All have been cut in preliminary hearings.
TOPEKA — (UP) — Gov. George Docking today conceded his budget next year will be higher than the current record-setting limit in spite of rigid scrutiny given the spending requests of state agencies.
State Budget To Go Up
For the current fiscal year, state agencies asked for $15,000,000 more than Gov. Docking allowed. The same pressure and cut-and-compromise is underway now.
Unknown Soldier Honored At Arlington
ARLINGTON, Va. — (UP) — Wreaths will be laid at the tomb of the unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery today in the last Veterans Day ceremony honoring solely the dead of World War I.
By next Nov. 11, remains of unknown soldiers of World War II and the Korean War will have been laid to rest alongside the World War I unknown.
New War Scare Sweeps Syria
By UNITED PRESS
A new war scare swept through Syria today with reports of large scale Turkish maneuvers along a wide stretch of the border. All Syrian units along the border were alerted. The Syrian cabinet held an emergency session after midnight.
The foreign office in Damascus said Turkish troop massing took place at four points on the frontier early today.
