...while even Lyndon's intense heat treatment failed to melt the dead lock. The industry claimed that it could not possibly boost its offer of a 40.6? hourly wage increase for a 35-month contract without raising prices, stirring Johnson's ire and losing sales to foreign steelmakers and competitive materials such as aluminum, plastics and cement. The steelworkers' Abel, who got elected earlier this year on a promise of plumper contracts, was equally adamant in refusing to scale down his demand...

Labor also believes, as A.F.L.-C.I.O. Chief Economist Nathaniel Goldfinger put it last week, that "all the heat of the guidelines has been on the wage side-a one-sided pressure...
...after twilight and just before dawn-gaining invaluable information for meteorologists and astronomers. They sighted and photographed the firings of two Minutemen missiles, launched to coincide with Gemini's passover. They took infra-red measurements of volcanoes, land masses and blasts from rockets to determine what infra-red heat sensors could find out about earthbound objects. A primary object of these exercises was to prove out the usefulness of spacemen in military surveillance...
...canister, about 41 ft. long and 10 ft. wide, that will be attached to a stripped-down Gemini. The two vehicles will be lofted together into space by a Titan IIIC rocket. Once they are in orbit, the spacemen will crawl through a hatch in the Gemini heat shield and enter the lab. For the return to earth, they will simply reverse the procedure, then detach from the 7½-ton canister and descend in the Gemini. Later on, other Gemini crews will take off from the earth, link up in space with the lab, and continue the work...

Ralston took his defeat with typically bad grace, complaining, among other things, about the court, the heat, and noisy Spanish fans. U.S. Team Captain George MacCall put the blame where it belonged.
