a Trips Seen by LB.J Note to Congress Lauds U.S. Effort By VERN HOUGLAND WASHINGTON (AP)President Johnson said today that American space achievements last year were a brilliant preface to the coming years of stations in space and voyages to the planets. In a special mesage to Congress, Johnson said 1965 with its walk in space. and the rendezvous of two manned U.S. space, craft was the most successful year in the nation's aeronauticsspace history.

"As our space. program continues," the President fold Congress, "the impact of its developments on everyday life becomes daily more evident. It continues to stimulate our education, improve our material well-being, and broaden the hor. izons of knowledge. It is also a powerful force for peace.

space program. of the United States today is the largest effort ever undertaken by any nation to advance the frontiers of human knowledge. What we are discovering and building today will help solve many of the great problems which an increasingly complex and heavily populated world will face tomorrow. "The year 1965 the year of Gemini, Ranger, and Mariner is a brilliant preface to the coming years of Apollo, stations in space, and voyages to the planets. have great pride and pleasure in transmitting this remarkable record to the Congress that, through its enthusiastic support, has made possi ble.

The military space section of the report include this development of space surveillance: research is under way on the best means of determining the physical characteristics of objects in earth orbit" through observation by groundbased radar. And the Atomic Energy Commission's section reported that third pair of detection satellites launched in mid-July is watching for nuclear explosions in space and is measuring X-ray emission from the sun. Johnson said more American spacecraft were orbited than in any previous year, and astronauts spent more hours in space than were flown by all U.S. manned spacecraft in previous years a total of 1,297 hours and 42 minutes in space for 10 astronauts on the five manned Gemini flights. He said the United States flew more manned hours in space last year than had been flown by Soviet spacecraft throughout the history of their program, as well as by U.S.

spacecraft previous to. 1965. the United States was building an impressive record as it orbited more spacecraft than any other nation, the U.S.S.R. was far idle," Johnson said. "In fact, during the year, that nation almost doubled its earthorbiting activities over the previous year compared with a 36 per cent increase for the United States," Johnson added.

"The also showed their determination to speed their space program as they more than doubled the U.S. activity in lunar and planetary exploration during the year." In a separate chapter of the lengthy report, the National Aeronautics and Space Council noted that U.S. achievements during the year were so distinetive in quality and quantity as to cause people at home and abroad to conclude the United States had attained world space leadership. The council said that in many respects that conclusion was accurate. "But it would be incorrect and unwise to minimize the vitality of the the report and size of the space program said.

the year, the United States successfully placed into earth orbit 94 spacecraft as compared with 66 by the U.S.S.R. This was an increase over 1964 of 36 per cent for the United States and 83 per cent for the U.S.S.R., the report added. "In fact, the Soviets almost doubled their earth-orbiting activity over the previous year and, with their seven escape mission flights, more than doubled the U.S. activity in lunar and planetary exploration for the year," it said. The report showed that through 1965 the United States had placed in orbit around the earth from 342 payloads, including two point efforts with Canada, two with the United Kingdom, and one each with Italy and France, Russia has launched 151 payloads and France has placed one in orbit, the report said.

KINDERGARTEN GRANBY First meeting of kindergarten approved here under the Title 1 federal funds program will be held at 8:45 p.m. Tuesday in the elementary building all purpose room. Missing Bomb Scares Simple People CUEVAS DE ALMANZORA, Spain (AP) The shattering collision of two U.S. warplanes miles above the Spanish coast has plunged the simple people of this Andalusian region into the nuclear age and left them astonished, perplexed, and fearful. The crash Jan.

1 17 of a B52 bomber carrying nuclear bombs and the jet tanker refueling it likely to become one of the most expensive accidents in U.S. Air Force history exploded with international repercussions. But was the quiet little people of the Mediterranean coast. the truck farmers and the fisherfolk. who were affected most intimately.

The massive land and sea search for a nuclear bomb still missing has tailed to quiet their fears. Whether it has succeeded in other aims remains to be seen, The U.S. government mably is anxious to prevent the bomb from falling into Communist hands and to reassure allied governments who may develop fears about U.S. bombers flying territory with nuclear bombs aboard. Although the search sector a near this area of 13,000 persons is heavily guarded, it is conceiv- able that someone might stumble on secret material and hand it over to Red agent wit.

tingly or unwittingly, It is also conceivable that Soviet military men might discov er the weapon or its parts. The missing bomb is believed to be 1,000 feet deep in the Mediter-anean off Almeria. The Soviet Union operates subs and surface ships in the Mediterranean. The search seems to have quieted down for the moment, As Federal Court Session Opens Trial Starts for Two On Dyer Act Charges Trial of Bobby Gene Guerin, 29, and William D. Allen, 20, both of Nashville, on Dyer act charges was scheduled to be underway before Federal Judge William R.

Collinson and a jury of nine men and four women this afternoon. The two are alleged to have taken a stolen car from Nashville to Willow Springs last fall. Dale Lee Williams, 22, Lebanon, entered guilty pleas this morning to two counts (Oct. 4 for service under the selective and Dec. 16) of failure to repori service act, but when Judge Collinson asked his attorney, Donnelly, if he concurred, Donnelly said he was inclined to disagree and hadn't had time to confer with his client.

At that time Judge Collinson postponed the case to allow Donnelly time to confer. LeRoy Dwight Cobb, 21, Kirbyville, recently indicted for failure to report Sept. 15 for civilian work as ordered by his draft board, entered a plea of innocence. In other cases before Judge Collinson this morning: Gordon Bannister, 61, Jerico Springs, pleaded guilty to four' counts of unlawful sale amphetamine tablets and the government dismissed three counts. Judge Collinson ordered a pre-sentence investigation.

a Alvin Lee Boyd, 32, of 1505 East McDaniel, was ordered committed, at the request of his attorney, John Hosmer, to the U.S. Medical Center for 60 days to be examined for mental illness. Boyd is charged with having cashed bad checks on a Dallas, bank in Lebanon Sept. 3, 1964. In open court Hosmer requested his client to cooperate fully with Medical Center and probation authorities.

"We all rushed to the We weren't told until much later that it could be radioactive, I think if it happened again most of us would stay away from the scene. The big warplanes were no strangers to the village along this bit of Spanish coast. But never had they come into the very heart of the area.

"We used to see them every morning." a farm woman said, as she watched U.S. and Spanish airmen checking through battered wreckage of the big planes. "They were a familiar sight something new for us. It was a good show watching them refuel, so high we had to strain to see them." But on Jan. 17 there was no entertainment for the villagers or the fishermen.

Just before 8:25 a.m. children en route to consolidated school near this village heard the crashing of metal in the sky, saw a quick spread of smoke, then four parachutes blossom out in bright white against the brilliant blue sky, Then the rain of wreckage fell, most of it along the shore and across the truck gardens and farms. It missed the school, in which nearly 500 children from the entire area were gath-1 ering, by about a mile and half. No Spaniard was injured by the falling debris -nor was there material damage except to tomato and other truck crops for which this rolling, sandy area is famous. "But when the word spread that the bomber carried nuclear arms something of which we know little here a there was a quick wave of fear, said the mayor of one village.

"Doctors came from Madrid, and they told us to wash quently and to wash all our clothes to prevent contamination by something we can't see and can't feel. A month's supply of soap and detergent was bought up and used in two days." Four survivors of the crash were rescued by fishermen and whisked away to a U. S. Air Force hospital near Madrid. Squads of U.

"Even our own officials were too busy to tell us anything. We tried to help with the wreckage and learned two days later that we should have kept away." More S.

airmen came, clearing the wreckage, searching the area and making friends with the quiet people of the region. They quieted much of the when they began eating ripe, gardens tomatoes U. from the local esti- damage, mators had already promised reimbursement for this year's crop and maybe the next, The searchers brought with them strange Instruments and the word spread that one of the dreaded bombs was missing. The villagers and the fishermen endured another furry of fear, until word came that instruments had located it in the sea and a recovery force of U. S.

and Spanish warships was assembled to recover it. Garrucha, nearby fishing village of 4,500. persons, is most affected by the sea search. Fishermen are unable to go to sea, and they sit idly in the sun, watching frogmen and diving bells in action off the coast. They, too, were promised prompt reimbursement for fish lost due to the nuclear search.

There were other major repercussions elsewhere. There was heavy pressure: from the Spanish government to suspend further refueling flights of the big bombers over Spanish territory and waters. The U. S. I government announced that orders had been issued limiting such refueling to areas over international waters.

Spain went even further and ordered that no more planes carrying nuclear arms could be flown over Spanish territory. "This accident gives Spain a lot of bargaining power over future agreements with the United States," said one observer. "The sooner it's over and all signs erased, the lower the cost of new understandings should be. The little people of Cuevas de Almanzora, Garrucha, Vera and Palomares Beach are also anxlous for all the excitement to end so they can get back to their normal quiet life.

And most people, including many of the blind themselves, would agree. But, says Kenneth Jernigan, director of the Iowa Commission for the blind, it is anything but impossible. In fact, in the last six months, a blind person has gone to work as a reporter, another as an electrical engineer, and a third as a computer programmer. They are graduates of the commission's Orientation and Rehabilitation Center.
