World-Wide Wire Ike Enters Hospital With Chest Pains
AUGUSTA, Ga.—(UPI)—Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower, 75, was hospitalized today with chest pains. A team of specialists said if Eisenhower suffered a heart attack it was a mild one. They called his condition "very satisfactory," but declined to make a diagnosis and said one probably would not be forthcoming for 36 hours.
The details of the former president's condition came from Dr. Thomas Mattingly, cardiologist from the Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, who attended Eisenhower during a heart attack in 1955 at Denver.
Eisenhower's illness, which came during a golfing vacation here, brought to his side doctors from the area, from Ft. Gordon, and from Washington. His wife Mamie was at his bedside and his son, John, came from Phoenixville, Pa., to be with him.
Second Space Stroll Set in'66
Basset was named Monday co-pilot of the U.S. Gemini 9 orbital flight. It is officially scheduled for sometime after July 1, 1966 but sources said it could get underway as early as next May if all goes well.
SPACE CENTER, Houston—(UPI)—America's second spaceman to "walk in space" one full turn around the earth will be Charles A. Bassett II, 33-year-old Air Force captain from Dayton, Ohio.
Bassett will fly the right-hand seat alongside civilian astronaut Elliott M. See Jr. of Dallas. See will be command pilot of Gemini 9.
U.S. Slaughters Viet Cong
SAIGON-(UPI)An outnumbered battalion of American paratroopers, supported by artillery fire and air power, killed at least 391 Viet Cong regulars Monday in a bitter jungle battle near Saigon.
The men of the U.S. 173rd Airborne Brigade tracked the hardcore guerrilla force to its sanctuary in the Communist stronghold known as "Zone D," 35 miles northwest of Saigon.
Silverless Coins Stir Fears
WASHINGTON—(UPI)Americans got their first silverless coins last week and Washington officials are holding their breath.
Like kids walking past a cemetery at night. Only it's the ghost of a 16th century English financier named Thomas Gresham that's making the government nervous.
"Gresham's Law" says that bad money drives out good. If the new silverless coins drive the familiar ones into hiding, then the country could suffer a coin shortage far worse than it has been experiencing the past couple of years.
Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe will go to New York City Wednesday to attend the bi-annual meeting of the China Medical Board. He is a member of the board of trustees of the foundation which helps finance medical schools in the Orient.
Chancellor Attends Asian Meet
was created in 1914 as a division of the Rockefeller Foundation to look after its developing interests in Clania. It was incorporated in 1928 with the express purpose of assisting the maintenance of Peking Union Medical College.
The Chancellor became involved with the foundation in 1959 when it supported his sabbatical from the KU Medical Center to the University of the Philippines. He was elected to the board soon after assuming the chancellorship of KU.
THE CHINA MEDICAL Board
After the Communists took over in China in 1951 and nationalized the medical school, the Board revised its charter "to extend financial aid to Peking Union Medical School and/or like institutions in the Far East or the United States of America." Projects in American medical schools which are subsidized by the
Board must have some bearing on interests of the Orient.
Leap 2800 Feet Down In Parachute Jump
"One stipulation to receiving the aid is that the country not be under Communist influence," Wescoe said. "If such a situation exists, that's it." Under these conditions, aid was withdrawn from schools in Indonesia during 1965. Thailand ended the payments under other circumstances and on its own accord during the period.
Seven members of the KU Sport Parachute Club made their first sport parachute jumps Saturday at the Sky Ranch Airport in Topeka.
Students making their first jumps were Linda Myers, Perry sophomore, Jerry P. Blankship, Anchorage, Alaska, sophomore, Ronald C. Edwards, Kansas City senior, Robert A. Gustafson, Arlington Heights sophomore, Thomas T. Hewitt, Topeka junior, Thomas S. Hutchison, Everest graduate student, and John Sharp, Lenna freshman.

Marines, who is a senior in geography, acted as jump master and club safety officer for the jumps, while Capt. Merrill F. Steele, Army ROTC instructor and club faculty advisor, assisted ground operations.
All of the jumps made Saturday were "static line" jumps. The parachutes opened automatically with no rip cord pull required on the part of the students. Student jumpers must make a minimum of five such jumps and be evaluated by a licensed parachutist before being permitted to make a "free fall," a jump where the parachute opens only after the individual pulls the rip cord.
THE FINANCIAL support is given in the form of fellowships, medical libraries, laboratory supplies and equipment, research projects, and training programs.
"The purpose of the support is to encourage the schools to improve their curriculum to keep abreast of medical advances," the Chancellor said.
The jumps were made at an altitude of 2800 feet, the minimum altitude from which student jumpers may exit an aircraft. This is compared to 1250 feet jumpers which military parachut-

ists make. The additional altitude provides a margin of safety for the student and allows more than enough time to release a reserve parachute in the event of a malfunction of the main parachute.
