Tollrgiatt WASHINGTON A trio of Soviet snooper ships, rigged with elaborate recording equipment, is on station at the very edge of the U.S. nuclear test area in the PaCific, the Defense Department reported yesterday. Able to glean technological intelligence on almost every type of nuclear test, including extremely high-altitude blasts, ;the three ships are ,about 10 to 15 miles from the western perimeter of the zone around Christmas Island. The United States has wanted all shipping and aircraft to stay out of the zone because of danger. The Soviet ships presumably are within their legal rights, and would be even if they chose to move into the zone. Indeed, the announcement by a Pentagon spokesman said they had traveled through another zone, to - the northwest around Johnston Island, in reaching their present position. THE SHIPS have been warned by a ITS. destroyer to stay clear, 'of the prescribed danger area, but 'ignored the warnings. The spokes man said that in 1958, the Soviet Union complained that one of-her 'research ships had suffered fall out from U.S. tests but that this time the Soviets did not seem con 'corned about maneuvering close to the danger zone. The description of the ships ands their capacities as are given by the Pentagon left no uncertainty, about their mission. They are obviously on a .very' large-scale military intelligence ;collection mission, the Pentagon 'spokesman said. • \ •; The lead ship is reported - to be the 3,800-ton research ship Sho kal'skiy. Among other things, this ;ship can launch rockets to obtain data of high atmospheric nuclear explosions—like those expected to be included later in the current auditorium on campus last week.
