Airman to Try
Space Conditions
In Test Chamber
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., UPL-In a
few weeks, Airman 1. C. Donald
G. Farrell will be living a dog’s
life—in a test chamber simulat
ing conditions space travelers
would experience on a roundtrip
flight to the moon.
The experiment by the School
of Aviation Medicine at Randolph
Air Force Base will duplicate
some conditions met by the Rus
sian dog Laika, the canine shot
into orbit aboard Sputnik II.
Farrell will stay in the space
flight chamber for a week some
time next month. Like Laika, he
will be wired so scientists can re
cord his reactions. ,
Farrell, a 28-year-old account
ing clerk at Randolph, will sit in
a canvas-like chair in a chamber
the size of a home furnace.
The longest previous test in
the unique chamber was 24 hours.
Appeals Court Applies
Jencks Case Rule
To Communist Party
WASHINGTON, 15V-The U.S.
Court of Appeals yesterday ap
plied the controversial Jencks
case rule to the government’s ef
fort to label the Communist Party
as a tool of Moscow. On that
ground, it granted the party at
least another delay.
The ruling was that the gov
ernment, in its action before the
Subversive Activities Control
Board (SACB"), must give the par
ty access to reports which a key
witness made to the FBI, if it is
to rely on that witness’ testimony.
The order follows the theory
adopted by the Supreme Court
last June when it reversed the
conviction of Clinton Jencks, for
mer labor leader, on charges of
filing a false non-Communist affi
_ davit under the Taft-Hartley Act.
The high court ruling was that
the government had to make
available to the defense state
ments filed with the FBI by two
key proserution witnesses.
