European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - April 09, 1963, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Spherical space Boll attached tas Ivy Lanki hot space lotion . Tinker toying in space by Waldo Russell Nana staff Wriler space engineers now envision Tanker Tor Type vehicle nicknamed  it could serve As a Pace station or an interplanetary transport. The concept recently Wai presented by. 3. Gordon. Douf Lai aircraft co. Mulle and space by items division  Are counties unanswered ques Toni about exposure of astronauts to Yean of weightlessness and years of solar flares Gordon pointed out it is improbable that component and subsystem ran by do ilgner or manufactured to perform with Beo Lutler to failures in apace during ill thu Outing Many years. Therefore technique must be devised to test men and equipment or Long periods in Rolls tic environments prior to planetary mls Obi such technique involves  believes it could be the key to the world s first Large scale operational space station. Spa Ceball could be lofted into orbit bythe National aeronautics and space administration s advanced Saturn is due to become operational late in this decade according to  spherical spa Ceball which resembles a youngsters tinker toy with som pieces la along would be powered by a terminal stages Ivy  rest of the Saturn would fall away after boost and burnout. When the a in had burned out it would remain As part of the spa Ceball vehicle giving  extra living quarters in its cavernous empty fuel  resupply vehicles were shuttled to the spa Ceball their expended Sib Ter Minal stages could be docked for even More room. Additional space balls could be orbited and linked to the growing space station. Eventually the growing space station would resemble a giant Model of a Molec Uick a series of spheres linked with tubes. The spa Ceball concept could be expanded to provide planetary exploration capabilities says Gordon. To achieve this a a Saturn would hurl a spa Ceball into orbit other Saturn launches would orbit two fully fuelled Sib stages into Spac Ball l orbit. The three units would rendezvous and link up with the Sib engine on opposite sides of spa Ceball. Then the first Sib would be fired and separated. Spa Ceball would rotate 180 degrees to keep it heading in a desire direction. The seconds Ivy would be fired. In this Way nearly half a million pounds of propellant would be available to boost spa Ceball from Earth Orbital to escape velocity Gordon explains. He Points out the spa Ceball payload weight could be a much As 150,000 pounds in a one year Venus Fly by mls Lon for example. Space Bati would carry life support equipment for the astronauts a Strable midcourse trajectory correcting propulsion system and most important an abort Earth return reentry capsule for the trip  Goren on Bridge Kast West vulnerable.

My relationship wit the sponsor Hai been a very Happy one and has led to the de East pass pass pass be a very avid Bridge player. Iam referring to Denny Pease who is the marketing director for the company. He plays a keen game As is evidenced by his Manipula Tion of the slam contract featured today or. Pease seated in the South position found that he had dealt himself a Bridge player s dream a hand containing no card of less than Honor rank. He properly opened the bidding with two hearts and when his partner responded positively by raising to three hearts he proceeded Tocheck for aces. North showed one Ace and South bid a Small Slamin hearts. West opened the ten of la monds and. After East cashed his Ace the shift was to a Low  put up the Ace of clubs on which West dropped the Queener. Pease would gladly have traded one of North s spot cur sin hearts for his own ten at this Point Lor with a Normal three Todl Villon in Trumps he would be Able to Cash his High Spade Honor Sand then enter Dummy with the third round of Trumps in order 14 to run the balance of the  the Dummy had no Side entry however it appeared that Declarer would have to overtake the second Spade in the Hope that the suit would split evenly. Or. Pease observed that he had eleven top tricks so that he was in position to run off his Winner sin the red suits before testing Spudes. There vat a Chance either that an opponent might err in discarding or else find himself burdened with too much to protect in Ftp Dei and  accordingly proceeded to Lay live rounds of Trumps Fol Lowed by his two High diamonds. As the last Diamond was led or. Fee was Down to the Jack ten of clubs and the King Queen of Spades and the Dummy Wae left with four Spades. East Hel four Spades at this Point and the King of clubs with one discard still to be made. Convinced that he must hold on to his club  chose to throw a Spade. Declarer cashed the Spade King overtook the Queen and took the balance with the Dummy s Bow established suit. Is Nusu in.
