Soviets Charge Sealing
Ship “Buzzed" by U. S.
And Canadian Planes
MOSCOW UP — U. S. and
Canadian warplanes buzzed a
Soviet sealing ship in internation
al waters off the Newfoundland
Coast. Tass charged.
A Canadian patrol plane flew
over the ship, Indigirka, seven
times on March 10-22. the So
viet news agency said, and a U. S.
plane 19 times on March 23-24.
The U. S. plane flew “at zero
altitude” over Soviet specialists
working on the ice taking photo
graphs.
Canadian authorities have met
the sealing expedition with “a
hostile attitude” and one Cana
dian radio station broadcast that
the Russians should be forced out
of the area, Tass added.
Is Jerry Lewis America’s clean
est comedian? His home in Holly
wood has 17 baths.

X-15 Soars 31 Miles
Into Space to Set
Altitude Record
EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE.
Calif. Iff* — An X-15 rocket plane
soared to more than 31 miles
above the earth — the highest al
titude yet achieved on a manned
flight.
Radar computations made on
the ground showed that test pilot
Joe Walker took the research
craft to an altitude of 165,000
feet.
Near the top of his climb,
Walker reported by radio:
“It’s a nice, dark blue over
head, and I do have time to look
around.”
As he was looking around,
Walker was at the top of his long
arc across the heavens and was
weightless. He was weightless
two minutes, the longest such
period ever experienced by a
human.
He suffered no apparent ill
effects.
The X-15 achieved a speed of
2,590 mph. Walker could have
gone faster and higher. The X-15
is designed to eventually reach
speeds of up to 4,000 mph and alti
tudes of 100 miles.
The plane burned fuel for only
79 seconds.
Walker’s record eclipsed the old
mark of 136,500 feet set in 1960
by an X-15 with a less powerful
engine.
The plane, built for research in
the nearly airless fringe of space,
set a world speed mark of 2,905
mph on the first of its all-out
flights March 7.
