MAZE OF SIGNS (Photo by Glen Phillips)
Sign piles upon sign on the north side of 23rd Street looking west from Louisiana Street. This picture was taken at street level with a 400 mm lens, and shows the commercial panorama all the way to Iowa Street. Lady Bird Johnson's beauty campaign evidently has not reached so far as Lawrence.
Grad may step upon moon first
Ten years ago the moon probably did not mean much to KU student Ronald E. Evans. However, sometime in the near future Evans may be the first to step onto the surface of the moon.
Lt. Cmdr. Evans, U.S.N., class of '56, was recently selected by the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA) as an astronaut for the Apollo mission, the U.S. project to land a man on the moon by 1970.
ALSO INCLUDED in the Apollo training program will be such things as learning to operate the Gemini onboard computer and the Apollo guidance and navigational instruments.
Before Evans reaches the moon, he will undergo training at the pumice fields near Bend, Ore., wearing a pressurized lunar suit, to get a "feel" for walking conditions on the moon. From there, he may take a geological training trip to the Grand Canyon.
The basic program takes about eight months of intensive training, followed by constant day-bay training as new methods and equipment are taken off the drawing board and put into operation. Among the requirements are at least 1500 hours of flying time in a jet aircraft before the training starts.
After completion of the training, Evans will be able to eat chicken noodle soup in a weightless environment and will know the names, locations and physical features on the moon's geography and a few thousand other things essential to survival and completion of a journey to the moon.
Evans has just returned from duty in Viet Nam, where he flew more than 100 combat missions in the area bordering the Gulf of Tonkin. He joined the Navy after graduating from KU with a B.S. degree in electrical engineering.
FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. — (UPI)—Few people are aware that bandleader Xavier Cugat also is a talented artist whose paintings are much in demand, especially by his friends. One of them, Ralph Watkins, former owner of The Embers in New York City, will soon unveil his latest club, The Casino, here and prominent among the paintings decorating the rooms will be the Cugat art.
