...Texas Attorney General Will Wilson prepared to file an antitrust suit against Estes, alleging that Billie Sol used capital gained from the grain-storage program to help him corner the liquid-fertilizer market in West Texas. Ledger accounts obtained by Wilson indicated that Estes had withdrawn $40,000 in cash from his bank account before flying to Washington in January. Even more mysterious was an Estes ledger entry showing $235,000 paid out for a "Washington project...
...tubing-which is actually one tube inside another-permits the frigid liquid (-4°F.) to be pumped in and out, constantly recooled and recirculated, until the stomach is frozen to rocklike hardness. But most patients, though fully conscious, feel no discomfort. "Strangely,'' a Wangensteen team member told the American Surgical Association last week, "no patient has complained of the cold tube in his mouth or throat. Nor has any evidence of frostbite of the tongue been observed...
...were disappointed. Titov's formal, apparently ghostwritten speech described the Vostok II's equipment only in the most general terms. Even when figures were given, they were carefully selected to tell little. Titov revealed, for instance, that his ship was launched by a multistage booster having six liquid-propellant rocket engines with 600,000 kilograms (1,323,000 Ibs.) of total thrust. Without breakdown into stages, this information told U.S. scientists little that they had not already calculated for themselves. The same was true of Titov's revelation that, against instructions, he left the Vostok...
...miracle, but with two we start building statistics." In the course of eight future statistic-building tests scheduled to be finished by 1964, Saturn will acquire a live second stage, which will be powered by a cluster of six 15,000-lb.-thrust engines nourished by liquid hydrogen and oxygen. Scientists figure that Saturn eventually will be able to heave more than 200,000 lbs. into orbit around the earth, or send an 80,000-lb. payload to outer space. This is far more weight than can be put aloft by any other U.S. missile-more than enough to send...
Centaur, the nation's first missile to use highenergy, liquid-hydrogen fuel, flunked its first flight test when its Atlas booster shut down seconds after ignition. But by week's end, the trend toward repeated failure was reversed as the skies were peppered with missiles. A second Pershing flew properly. The first International Satellite-a joint effort by the U.S. and Great Britain-was successfully nudged into orbit by a Thor-Delta rocket to gather data on cosmic radiation. A smaller Nike-Cajun was shot 75 miles high in another ionosphere-probing experiment. The Air Force fired...
