Fla. AP Saturn, a monster representing a new dimension in U.S. rocket power, is scheduled for its first test launching within a few days. the -the KatlonaT Aeronautics and Space 1 Administration announced Saturday. r-The Jom-awaited firing of-thc-r huge vehicle, whose thrust of 1.3-.

million pounds is three times more powerful than any previous American rocket, will ignite this nation's drive to land a man on Jthe moon by 1967. Saturn, itself is not ticketed for the manned lunar mission. That is for the more advanced Nova rocket. But by 13, Saturn is expected to whirl a three-man spaceship around the moon and land tons of machinery on the moon's surface to prepare for the disembarking of American astronauts. The space agency did not pinpoint the date of the first Saturn launch, but if all goes rieht it will be before the end of next week.

The shot will not work miracles, nor will it close slhe big booster gap between the United Statesndjthe Soviet" Union. Of-" ficials say frankly there is a chance of failure. Only the- first stage wrll be Jired. This is a mammoth fluster -of-inght rpowerttilengines stand- i up-i per stages will be filled with tons of water to simulate of the operational rocket. Over-all height is 162 feet.

The entire flight is programmed to end eight minutes after launch with the huge vehicle bubbling to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean 22Sirrilesdownrangeafter a 95-mile-high ballistic trip. The primary purposes of the flight NASA reported, are to test the propulsion system of the first stage, verify the design of the en-- tire- vehicle-and prove the function ortheground, support and launching equipment. The space agency said this would be the first of 10 research and development flights in the Saturn 1 program, leading to an operational rocket by 1964.
