parently in excellent health and
spirits, Airman Donald G. Farrell
today neared the half-way mark
of his week’s stay in a tiny sealed
cabin on his mythical trip to the
moon.
| The 25-year-old native of the
I Bronx passed his 72nd hour in
the Air Force’s experimental
space cabin at Randolph Air
Force Base.
Operating on a 14-hour day,
Farrell appeared bright and alert
when he finished a four - hour
i work period at 5 a.m. today. He
told observers outside the sealed
cabin he was “feeling fine.” Then
he went “to bed,” stretching his
six foot frame over an air mat
tress.
I£ Farrell stays in the three by
five foot tank-like cubicle until
9:35 a.m., Sunday scientists at the
School of Space Medicine here
believe he will have proved that
a human can live in the crowded
cabin of a space rocket for seven
days.

About Those Red
Northern Lights
Monday Night
(By The Associated Press)
Aurora Borealis, the northern
lights, put on a brilliant display
over North America Monday
night.
The skies glowed with bright
red and pink hues and in some
areas green and yellow colors.
Such earthly affairs as radio and
TV transmissions and news tele
type wires were affected in the
United States and Canada.
Observers in northwestern Cal
ifornia saw bright red lights
streaming over the top of a low
cloud bank. The lights later were
reported turned to white.
In Ohio a smoky red band was
reported in the skies. It looked
like a forest fire over Washing
ton, D.C., and brightly colored
red, blue and green flashes were
seen over Minneapolis.
In New York City James S.
I Pickering, assistant astronomer of
I the Hayden Planetarium, said he
| had “never seen such complete
1 redness” in the northern lights.

Practical Joker Wills
His Cremated Remains
Thrown In Garbage Can
COWFOLD, England, l£> — A
daughter of the late Arthur H.
Robins says its true that the fam
ily had father cremated and
threw his ashes in the garbage
ean.
No disrespect was intended.
Robins, a 60-year-old stockbroker
specified this disposal of his re
mains in his will.
“Father was always a practical
joker,” the daughter, Mrs. Eve
Sutton, said yesterday, “And I
guess this was his last joke. None
of the family was upset or star
tled about it.
“The ashes were just put in
the bin in a matter-of-fact way
and carted away with the ordin
ary. household debris.”
Robins did not forget the gar
bage collector, Harry Constable.
He lent him 10 pounds ($28) for
hauling away his ashes.
“Mr. Robins was a bit of a
card," Constable commented.
HOW TO CARE
FOR YOUR FEET
NEW YORK, UP)—Cold feet?
“The current cold wave is tak
ing its greatest toll below the
ankles,” says the American Foot
Care Institute, ‘Inc.
Here’s what the Institute sug
gests:
1. Bathe your feet alternately
with hot and cold water after
your bath or shower. This stimu
lates blood circulation.
2. Wear close shoes.
3. Men should wear two pair of
thin socks instead of one heavy
pair. The space between will help
retain body warmth.
4. Women, prone to cling to
nylons, can rub lanolin or baby
oil into the skin to prevent chap
ping.
5. Exercise your feet briefly,
by wriggling the toes and rotat
ing the feet from the ankles.
6. Stay indoors if you can.
