'U' RESEARCHERS TO FIRE:
Rockets To Pierce Canadian Silence

d9'

The wastelands of Canada's
Hudson Bay region will soon echo
to rocket blasts as University re-
searchers prepare explorations in- I
to the earth's upper atmosphere. p
Lead by project engineer Nelson s
Spenser, a six man team of elec-
trical engineers from the Engin-
eering Research Institute flew last a
week to Fort Churchill, some 300t
miles below the Artic Circle. t
There, under the auspices of thes

ir Force, they will fire the first
wo rockets in this country's pre-
International Geophysical Year
rogram of upper atmosphere re-
iearch.
100 MilesUp
Probing 100 miles high into the
rtic atmosphere, the rockets will
neasure density, air pressure and
emperature.
The firings by the Michigan re-
earchers mark the first use of
'ort Churchill as a rocket launch-
ng site. It was chosen, project en-
ineer Robert Boggess explained,
To .gather more data on the at-
nosphere especially in polar reg-
ons.
"We've pretty well probed the
ir around White Sands," Bog-
ess added, referring to the New
dexico base, scene of numerous
ocket launchings by the Air Force
Lnd the University.
Launch Newer Type
The first Fort Churchill rocket,
one-ton 25 foot-long Aerobee,
ill be fired Oct. 16. Considered
he "standard" rocket for upper
tmosphere research, according to
oggess, the Aerobee reaches sup-
rsonic speeds.
Three days later, University re-
earchers will launch a newer type
ocket, the Cajun. A slender nine
oot long rocket with a Nike anti-
ircraft missle booster unit at-
ached, the Cajun was fired first
.st August at White Sands.
The Cajun, less expensive than
he larger Aerobee, will see con-
derable duty during the future
.G.Y. launchings.
Students Help
Both the Aerobee and the Cajun-
ike combination rockets were
wilt and instrumented at the Uni-
ersity, using student help.
Further rocket launchings by
Tniversity personel will take place
a November. A team of aeronauti-
al engineers under the direction"
f Leslie Jones will launch twot

Aerobee rockets at Fort Churchill the International Geophysics Year
of the Army Signal Corps. as part of the all-out scientific
University engineers expect to effort to gather information on the
build, launch, and evaluate the earth and its atmosphere during
data from about 25 rockets during 1957-85.

Sports is a "restless, turbulent
bit of pageantry"-a bet on a
World Series baseball game like,
yesterday's perfect game, an in-
tegral part of college life and the
American way of living.
Robert Fisler, assistant publisher,
of Sports Illustrated magazine, told
his Rackham audience yesterday
t h e unastonishing information
that sports is taking a more sig-,
nificant place in American family
living. People are "eating less" and
are more "active." They just don't
sleep on Sunday afternoons any
more," he added.
Reviews History
Reviewing the short history of
the three-year-old publication, Fis-
ler noted the sportman's "urge to
excel in performance and equip-
ment" as motivation for increas-
ing interest in sporting activities.
Sports is more than an "escape
and Whiling away of hours," Fis-
ler noted. The wide interests rang-
ing from deep sea dviing to polo
to mountain climbing offer people
a chance to compete with them-
selves as well as find a "climate ofi
fine conversation and memories."c

Fisler, in showing slides of the
development of the magazine,

dogs to Michigan State's "complex"
institution with its courses in
"pickle packing," "chincilla ranch-
