Page 8 Summer Session Kansan Friday. July 13. 1962 Low Failure Rate For English Pro One hundred and seventy-one students have passed the Summer 1962 English proficiency examination. Eighteen per cent failed—the lowest failure rate for the past two years. James E. Seaver, chairman of the English proficiency committee, said most of the graders he talked with thought the writing of students on this exam was better than on any previous exam. Thirty-six students failed the exam. In the Spring of 1962, 24.2 per cent failed, and last summer 21 per cent failed.

KU Medical Tour Begins KU will conduct its second traveling education program for medical assistants, beginning with a meeting July 21 and 22 in Dodge City. The Kansas Medical Assistants Circuit Course also will be held at KU Aug. 18-19 and in Wichita, Sept. 8-9. The meetings are sponsored by the Kansas Medical Society, Kansas Medical Assistants Society and the Kansas State Board for Vocational Education, with the University of Kansas Extension. At each of the two-day meetings lectures will be given on medical terminology, legislation affecting the physician and health insurance claim forms, as well as other subjects relating to the profession. Russia Too Eying Radio In Space CAPE CANAVERAL — (UFI) — The United States apparently has a lead over the Soviet Union in development of a satellite communications system — but indications are the Russians have been giving serious thought to such a project for many years. Soviet technical literature has been filled with speculations about the prospects of radio and television broadcasting via orbiting satellites ever since the first Sputniks were launched nearly five years ago. However, none of the Soviet moonlets have been specifically called "communications satellites"—at least officially. For instance, Soviet Prof. S. Katayev said as far back as 1957 that such a use of satellites had attracted Iron Curtain television experts for more than four years. IN 1960, Alexander Nesmeyanov, president of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, said flatly that "Soviet science is planning the use of satellite and meteorological service and radio communications." M. V. Keldysh, the Academy president in 1611, carried it a step further by stating that "a priority of the highest order is given to artificial earth satellites . . . (which) would create a radical improvement in... radio communications..." Two-Week Fencing Class Begins Monday Mr. Stanford Patterson, a KU fencing instructor for the past two years and the fencing instructor and coach at Indiana University starting September, will teach a two-week fencing class which will start Monday. The class periods will run from 7-9 p.m. and will cost $10 for 10 lessons. The enrollee will have to furnish his own foil, but all other equipment will be furnished by the University. The course is non-credit and is limited to 20 persons. The Story Behind the New Telstar Satellite By United Press International The Telstar satellite's principal mission in space is to receive a radio signal beamed at it from earth, amplify it and retransmit it back to the ground. The principle someday may be expanded into a series of orbiting relay stations forming a worldwide network for radio, telephone, television, teletype and picture transmission. Telstar is the world's first active repeater communications satellite and its launching marks the entry of private industry into space. The satellite was developed by American Telephone & Telegraph Co. and the company paid for its launching. IN ADDITION to its communications relay function, Telstar contains telemetry equipment to measure and The Telstar satellite is $34\frac{1}{2}$ inches in diameter and weighs 170 pounds. It is roughly spherical with 72 flat faces. Two antennas girdle the satellite, a third antenna sprouts from its top. Power for its relay, telemetry and beacon transmitters comes from 19 rechargeable batteries contained inside Telstar. They will be charged by 3,600 solar cells on the sphere's skin. The electronic equipment aboard Telstar is sealed in a cannister suspended on nylon cord inside the satellite. report 115 separate factors about its environment in space. To save its power supply, Telstar's telemetry system operates and reports only on command. It is to be turned off when the satellite is out of range of designated ground stations. A beacon transmission from Telstar will facilitate tracking it and some visual tracking will be possible because of sun-reflecting mirrors on its exterior. Telstar is to stay in orbit at least two years. Its orbit will be elliptical, angled 45 degrees from the equator. Its farthest point from earth will be 3,500 miles and its nearest point 600 miles.
