“Here we have a wilfull,

Judge Mills told West
the only protection citizens
have from -such violations
are “this law, these fine
officers, this court.”
He said other protection,
because of the circum-
stances and the nature of
the utility, are impossible.
Judge Mills set appeal

He rejected arguments

first to crashland a rocket
on the moon in September
1959. The following month
they sent a space station
around the moon that sent
back photographs of its far
tide, never before seen by
man.
The United States also
crashlanded a picture-tak-
ing satellite on the moon,
but not until July 31, 1964.
This was Ranger 7 which
sent back the most com-
plete series of pictures
taken of the moon.
An earlier U. S. attempt,
Ranger 6. hit the moon
Feb. 2, 1964, but its cam-
reas did not work.
At Jodrell Bank, Lovell'
said the spacecraft landed
in a region that will be in
full sunlight for 14 days,
permitting solar power to
replenish Luna 9's batter-
ies during that time.
Using large telescopes,
astronomers at Lenin-
grad's Pulkovo Observato-
ry photographed the site of
Luna 9’s landing both be-
fore and after the space-
craft touched down, Tass
said. It said the photo-
graphs were being devel-
oped.
The landing put added
pressure on America's
troubled Surveyor pro-
gram, which hopes to
make a similar landing in
May.
U. S. officials hope the
Russians remove the se-
crecy veil from what Luna
9 reveals. If they do, it
would help American plan-
ning for the Apollo man-to-
the-moon ship and also
take some of the heat off
the Surveyor program.
Even if the Russians re-
leased all the data that
Luna 9 records, the United
States probably would pro-
ceed with the Surveyor
launchings; seven of which
are planned in an 18-month
period.
All seven are identical
and officials hope one or
more will succeed. They
are confident the Apollo
landing gear is capable of
landing safely on flat sec-
tions of the moon. But they
will not risk a manned
voyage to the moon until
they know for sure. They
noted the Russians failed
in at least four attempts to
make a soft landing before
Luna 9 succeeded.

use, the first cent of tax is
collected on purchases of
15 cents through 44 cents.
Two cents is collected on
purchases of 45 through 74
cents and three cents is
collected on buys of 75
through $1.14.
Carpenter contends this
results in the state getting
a 9 percent increase in its
collection of the state tax,
and the city getting more
than one cent from sales
of less than $1.
It gives the state two-
thirds of a penny collected
on a 15-cent purchase, Car-
penter contends, which is
contrary to the legisla-
ture’s bracket for the state
tax.
The state tax bracket
calls for collection of one
cent on purchases of 25
through 74 cents, two cents
tax on purchases of 75
cents through $1.24, and so
on.
Carpenter told the com-
mission in his letter that
the proper bracket for the
city tax would be one cent
on purchases of 50 cents
through $1.49. two cents on
purchases of $1.50 through
$2.49, etc.

sion chairman, said, "Nat-

on the moon,” he added.
The pictures were coming
in regularly this afternoon at
Nx-minute intervals. They
were being picked up by the
big-dish radiotelescope 250
inches across, fed into spe-
cial receiving equipment and
printed. Quality improved
steadily. Craters, rocks and
pebbles could be distin-
guished, technicians said.
One crater was about a foot
across.
Lovell said the camera ap-
peared to be located about
six to 10 feet above the
moon’s surface.
Tass Confirms It
In Moscow, Tass admitted
Friday the Soviet mechani-
cal moon pioneer has trans-
mitted to earth pictures of
the lunar landscape.
Luna 9 "has begun scan-
ning the Lunar landscape
and transmitting it to the
earth’s surface,” an an-
nouncement said.
The space vehicle landed
Thursday in an area of the
moon that will be in direct
sunlight for almost two
weeks. This would permit a
number of pictures to be
sent, if Luna 9 continues
working properly and sun-
light can power its batteries.
Reds Silent at First
Earlier, the Russians had
been characteristically silent
about information received
from Luna 9.
Prof. Nikolai Barabashov
predicted “safe landings on
the moon of manned inter-
planetary ships in the near
future.”
Barabashov told Tass the
most important achievement
of Luna 9 was proof that the
moon's surface is not cov-
ered with deep drifts of dust
that could engulf a space
craft. He pointed out Luna 9
had to land on a solid sur-
face or it would have been
unable to transmit radio sig-
nals back to earth.
Crash

wnd and rain swept over
the bay, forcing the search
planes to land.
The worst previous crash
inyolving a single plane
brought death to 130 persons
apoard an Air France jetlin-
er near Paris on June 3.
1962. In the second worst,
129 U. S. servicemen died in
June, 1953, in another crash
near Tokyo.
• While Japanese defense
force ships and fishermen
searched the bay, their spot-
lights piercing the darkness,
the government appointed a
special commission to inves-
tigate the accident.
At Tokyo airport, more
than 200 relatives gathered
to await news of the plane.
They jammed a small wait-
ing room. A mother and
daughter sat on a chair sob-
bNisoo Masumae, an air-
lipe official, talked with the
natives. He said:
“I must admit that it is al-
most certain that the plane
has crashed into Tokyo Bay.
I have no words to express
my regret and sorrow for
st accident.”

Oklahoma City’s Mayor
Shirk is an outgoing sort of
fellow.
He made a trip to Fort
Sill this week and immedi-
ately began talking of an-
nexation.
Next, after Maj. Gen.
Harry H. Critz, Fort Sill
commander, gathered
about a dozen Oklahoma
City soldiers to participate
in the welcome. the capitol
city’s mayor announced
with a grin, "It looks like
we’ve got a majority!"
Shirk, a reserve colonel
and artilleryman, was tak-
en out to see an artillery
battery training.
Instead of sitting in the
VIP chairs set up for the
occasion. Shirk bounded
through the mud and snow
to talk to the gun crew.
And wouldn’t you kow
it. The first man he met
was a Shirk—S-Sgt. Ro-
nald Shirk, Reading, Pa.,
who also has an uncle who
is mayor in Pennsylvania.
"He must be some kin,"
Mayor Shirk said.
Then it was off to Bald
Ridge Range to see the 105
mm Howitzers fire.
In about 20 seconds, the
mayor was again off
where the action was—this
time wearing a "steel pot"
as the helmet is affection-
ately called.
He inspected the weap-
on, checked the ammOni-
tion, checked the target
(an old red car body) and
pulled the lanyard (trigger
rope).
This was a time for re-
unions for the mayor, as
well.
Getting off the general’s
plane at Fort Sill, he was
greeted by Frank Sneed,
