World-Wide Wire De Gaulle Receives Big Election Setback
When You're in Doubt—Try If Out, Kansan Classifieds.
Among the experiments in store for Borman and Lovell, both 37. today were an attempt to speak to the ground by means of a laser light beam.
PARIS—(UPI)—President Charles de Gaulle, humiliated in an election setback which damaged his prestige at home and abroad, was in seclusion today at his country home. France was left guessing whether he would consent to a runoff Dec. 19.
Most Gaullist officials expected the 75-year-old president to again face the electorate, which Sunday gave him only 43.96 per cent of the vote in a seven-man race.
MOSCOW—(UPI)—The Russian spaceship Luna 8 raced toward the moon today for an intended soft landing shortly after midnight Moscow time, 3:50 p.m. CST.
One of the astronauts also was scheduled to become the first astronaut to orbit in his underwear, shucking his lightweight flying suit in the pressurized Gemini 7 cabin.
It is the fourth Soviet attempt to place a package of instruments on the lunar surface and pave the way for a manned flight to the moon.
Soviets Try Soft Lunar Landing
Leftist Francois Mitterrand, 49, backed by the Communists, Socialists, a section of the Radical Party and other splinter left winger groups, rolled up what was considered a sensational 32.04 per cent. A minimum of 50 per cent was needed to win on the first ballot.
Tass, the official Soviet news agency, announced the anticipated landing time Sunday night and said Luna 8 would hit the moon in the area of the Sea of Storms.
SPACE CENTER, Houston—(UPI)—Gemini 7 astronauts Frank Borman and James Lovell flashed on through history's longest space flight today while technicians at Cape Kennedy moved up to 15 hours ahead of schedule in preparing for the launch of Gemini 6.
The Gemini 6 capsule was electrically "mated" to its huge Titan 2 launched at 7:45 a.m. CST. This was a task originally scheduled to be done around midnight. Other phases of the work on Gemini 6 were reported four to six hours ahead.
CAPE KENNEDY—(UPI)—Launch crews put the Gemini 6 rocket and spaceship through an around-the-clock series of tests today to meet or better its Dec.13 appointment in space with Gemini 7.
Astronaut to "Doff" Suit
Gemini 6 Ready for Launch
Things were going so well for the second half of the Gemini doubleheader that officials were discussing the possibility of shooting astronauts Walter Schirra and Thomas Stafford after their Gemini 7 comrades a day early.
Project officials were maintaining a wait and see attitude, however, before committing themselves to a Gemini 6 launch only eight, instead of nine, days after the blastoff of Gemini 7 last Saturday.
VATICAN CITY—(UPI)The Ecumenical Council held its final working meeting today and approved a 26,000-word decree charting the course of the Catholic Church in the space age.
Ecumenical Council Closes
The vote was 2,111 to 251.
The document, first ever directed by a council to contemporary social problems, outlines the church stance on birth control, nuclear warfare and a host of other issues ranging from labor strikes to scientific progress.
Informants told UPI the decree lifts major fast and abstinence rules for all Catholics except monks, nuns and other members of religious orders. But the rules will still be maintained for Good Friday, the Christmas vigil and one other major feast day, probably that of the Immaculate Conception on Dec. 8.
VATICAN CITY—(UPI)—Pope Paul VI has prepared a Papal Bull permitting Catholics to eat meat on Fridays, it was reliably reported today. High-level Vatican sources said the pontiff will issue the decree Tuesday at a public session of the Ecumenical Council.
Americans Kill 200 Communists
SAIGON—(UPI)—American infantrymen killed more than 200 Communists Sunday in a bloody six-hour battle in the jungles 35 miles northwest of Saigon, a U.S. military spokesman reported today. Some Americans were killed after fighting down to their last bullet and using their rifles as clubs.
The close quarter battle in the jungles bordering the huge Michelin rubber plantation involved troops of the U.S. 1st Infantry Division and a much larger force of Communists-perhaps a regiment.

KU Fraternities Lead
U. S. losses were officially described as "moderate."
More than three-fifths of KU's 27 fraternities were above the all men's average for the 1964-65 school year according to the National Interfraternity Conference.
The above chapters were also leaders of their nationals last year. Alpha Tau Omega dropped this year to second after being the top ATO chapter last year. Alpha Kappa Lambda, one of last year's leaders, has not received information on their standings.
Four of the chapters also were given special notification they had been designated as the highest scholastic chapters of their respective fraternities.
These houses were Delta Tau Delta, Phi Delta Theta, Delta Upsilon, and Beta Theta Pi. The Betas, who have led fraternity scholarship at KU for the past 12 years, were honored with the Summa Cum Laude award for the best scholastic fraternity chapter of any fraternity in the nation.
WASHINGTON —(UPI)— Nicholas Katzenbach, Attorney General, and the U.S. Civil Rights Commission are at odds over whether the Justice Department is dragging its feet in implementing the historic voting rights act.
Justice Too Slow

because now you can complete Air Force ROTC in just half the time!
Are you interested in starting a military career while in college—but afraid it will cut too deeply into your schedule?
Well, here's good news for you. Air Force ROTC now offers a 2-year program. You can start it any time you have 2 years of higher education remaining-whether on the undergraduate or graduate level.
Here's another good thing about this program: you get a chance to "sample" Air Force life before you sign up. During a special summer orientation session, you get to make up your mind about the Air Force, and the Air Force gets to make up its mind about you. Only
when both are satisfied are you finally enrolled in the program.
You'll learn a lot in Air Force ROTC. The curriculum has been completely revamped. The accent is on aerospace research and development. But of course the classes are only the beginning. The important thing is that you'll be taking the first big step toward a profession of great responsibility, as a leader on America's Aerospace Team.
Find out more about the new Air Force ROTC program. See the Professor of Aerospace Studies today!
