The other segment of the group

FOR A BOYER PENN STATE
Ranger r's .. 'D.ocitet
Strea.ki to Moon.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)
—Space agency officials are keep
ing, their fingers crossed as a
mechanical explorer called Rang
er:s soars through the heavens
on a mission to unblock some of
the timeless secrets of the moon.
It appeared yesterday to be per
forming with drill-like precision.
But project officials said they
hadn't received , enough tracking
information to tell whether Rang
er 5 was on the proper flight path
to ,rendezvous with the moon.
"WE KNOW nothing about 04
orbit except that it is not in a low
earth orbit,"- said James Burke,
project. manager for Jet Propul
sion Laboratories of Pasadena,
Calif., 90 minutes after taunch.-
He said it was known that
Ranger 5 was outbound from
earth.
"Whether or not it will be with
in the capacity of the midcourse
maneuver to hit the moon,"
Burke said, "we don't know at
this time. This is as expected,"

Miss Eluscanics said that in
essence. These petitions stated,
"We do not want Froth banned;"
"Froth is not detrimental to the
good name of the University;"
"We are against any Impeach
ment of the right of freedom of
endi;" or, "Froth should be
teil up, but not 'supressed."
OF THOSE tnterviewed yester
day 48 had seen petitiona sup
porting Froth and 32 had. signed
one.
Miss Buscanics said she will
present the petitions that she had
last week and any additional
ones she receives to .the commit
tee on Tuesday' morning.
The Committee, postponed ac
tion until Tuesday to give the
editors adequate time to prepare
a rebuttal. It will hear Froth's
answer to the ' charges brought
against it by Dean of Women
Dorothy 3. Lipp and Dean of

Orders for adjusting course to
take care of any deviation from
the proper flight path were to be
sent to Ranger 3 early today. At a
signal from earth about d• a.m.
EST, a small motor was to make
adjustments to place Ranger 3
on a collision course with the
moon.
Two previous Rangers with
identical missions failed, :
MAj. JOHN ALBERT, an Air
Force official, said the Atlas-
Agena 13 booster performed all
of Its functions extremely close
to the programmed times.
If Ranger 5 successfully carries
out all its intricate maneuvers,
the gold and silver space labora
tory will arrive In the lunar sky
in the early hours of Sunday.
It will begin a furious round of
picture-taking, data-gathering and
transmitting, and then crash onto
the moon 10 a.m.'EST.
Ranger 5, riding atop the 10-
story-high Atlas-Agenda B, lifted
off its launch pad at one minute
before noon. Sending a clap of
thunder rolling across the Cape,
the big booster rose on a pillar
of flame and disappeared Into a
low-hanging layer of clouds.
Ranger 5 was supposed to leave
the earth's outer limits at 24.500
miles an hour, slgw gradually to
about 2,150 miles an hour and
Hurricane Menaces Coast;
Future Course in Doubt
By JOEL MYERS
Mighty hurricane Ella continues
to menace the eastern seaboard,
but the future effects of ;her 100
mile an hour winds on the coastal
areas from North Carolina to New
England remain in doubt.
The large and Intensifying
storm continued moving; toward
the mainland yesterday, but
slowed her forward speed to
seven miles an hour.
Residents of the North Caro
lina coastal areas began, taking
necessary precautions to safe
guard life and property early
yesterday. Winds along the coast
were approaching gale force late
last night and seas were becom
ing quite rough.
Gales ,to possibly hurricane
force winds are -forecast for the
then pick up speed again, under
the pull of lunar gravity.
Ranger 5, a mechanical marvel
blazing a trail for man to the
moon, has a television - eye to set
with. It has an electronic brain
to command it, a radio voice, and
instruments which in a, way serve
as a sense of touch.
Its two solar panels are capa
ble of soaking up energy from the
sun and converting it into some
150 watts of electricity to keep
Ranger 5 functioning,
IF ALL GOES well In its 70.,
hour, 231,500 mile voyage, Ranger
5 will begin its principal experi
ments 65 minutes before crashing
on the moon. At 2,600 miles-above
the surface, it will begin taking
and transmitting a picture every
13 seconds to the tracking station
at Goldstone, Calif.
These pictures would give
science the best closeups ever
made of the moon.
If all goes wet). a spectrometer
—an instrument capable of sort
ing out and measuring the inten
sity of gamma rays—will meas.'
ore - the gamma ray spectrum
found on the lunar surface. By
comparing this data with the
earth's gamma ray spectrum,
scientists would have a broad
idea whether the moon's surface
is similar to the earth's' or more
like meteoritic material.
North Carolina cast today, and
gale farce winds are expected to
spread northward to the Virginia
Capes late today.
The future path of Ella de
pends on developments in the
high atmosphere today. The odds
favor a chain of events that will
cause the big storm to turn north
eastward and out to sea.. Such a
path would spare moat of the
coastline.
Another possibility. however,
is that the storm will be drawn
northward along the coast late
tonight and tomorrow. Such a
course would mean very strong
winds and torrential rain in the
northeastern states Saturday.
