By The Associated Press
A tiny space voyager gave the
United States lunar exploration
program a huge boost yesterday
when, against all odds, Surveyor 1
landed softly on the moon and
sent a stream of striking pictures
back to earth.
Overjoyed scientists made these
projections, among others:
Surveyor 1 tends to confirm the
photographic findings of U.S.
Ranger, and Soviet Luna 9 that
the moon surface is smooth and
flat enough to permit manned
spacecraft to touch down safely
-yet firm enough to sustain their
weight.
The feat put the Surveyor pro-
gram ahead by one year.

said, "I regret to learn that such
an able public servant as Gov.
Scranton has decided not to run
again for public offise."
"I know he is well qualified to
serve in important national capa-
cities."
His announcement came only 11
days after a similar one about
presidential aspirations from Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York.
Like Rockefeller, Scranton had
kind things to say about Gov.
Geor'ge W. Romney of Michigan.
But, Scranton did not go quite
as far as Rockefeller, who sug-
gested Romney as the top Repub-
lican Candidate.
Scranton said lie considered
Romney "an excellent person."
"If he wants to run for presi-
dent, I would give him a very
thorough consideration as a can-
didate," he added.
Throughout his political career,
Scranton, who is ineligible to
succeed himself after a four-year
term as governor, had a reputa-
tion as a "reluctant candidate"-
one who needed repeated urging
from party leaders to run.
This was true in 1960, when he
was elected to Congress in his
first try for public office; in 1962,
when he was elected governor,
and in 1964, when he made his
late and futile bid to overcome
Barry Goldwater as the presiden-
tial nominee.
The reaction of leading Republi-
can figures in Pennsylvania thus
was about as expected to the
"never again" announcement.
Wednesday, less than two hours f
before trouble kept Gemini 9 on
the ground.
Radio signals from the target
indicated that its protective casing
may not have separated. The
North American Air Defense Com-
mand rada', however, spotted six
objects flying in formation with
the ATDA.
Four were unidentified, and
possibly might be sections of the
shroud after it broke apart. The
other two were the ATDA and
the Atlas rocket that hoisted it
aloft.
If the shroud did not separate,
Gemini 9 would be unable to link
up with its target. The shroud
covers the "docking collar" which
Gemini 9's nose must enter in or-
der to achieve a hookup.
Christopher C. Kraft Jr., Gem-
ini flight director, said that if
the astronauts discover the shroud
is still attached, the sequence of
several rendezvous may be alerted.
