A standing ovation-the first in China Lake Concert Associa- tion history-classically marked the conclusion of Madame Gina Bachauer's great piano recital here on April 1. Her art at the key b o a r d pr oved to be si mple, sincere and yet stunning, f or she was not only applauded bul Ihe aud- ience could not resist ch eer ing at times. Scorning any tricks of dress or platform manner she paid the local audience the compliment of feeling that they would want to hear fine music perfectly played. She played her program just that way and fixed the at- tention of a near-capacity audi- ence at the Station Theatre from the first chords to the final en- core. Majestic and Gay The Beethoven Sonata in E Major was majestic and grand and yet gay at the same time_ The Sonata in B Minor by Cho- pin was brilliant, showy and exciting, but one cannot help .wishing that the Brahms Sonata On her original program bad been played instead. . Artists on national tours fre- quently vary their programs and play the more demanding pieces with the most musical content for the audiences in lar ge cities which they feel are better edu- cated. The local audience con- tains many with fine musical ed- ucations and they would have appreciated more Brahms and a little less Chopin. . The "Suite Pour Ie P iano" bV Debussy was unfamiliar to many but con tains passages of won. derf u lly rip p lin g beauty 10 which Gina Bachauer did full j ust ice on the Stein wa y. Her program concluded with the Barcarolle Opus 60 and the famed Polonaise in A Flat Maj- or by Chopin both brilliantly executed. The enthusiasm of her audience would have brought many artists back for half a doz- en encores but Gina Bachauer took her time deciding what fur- ther gifts she would bring. Encore Brings Ovation She played "Three Scottish Dances" by Chopin for further acclaim, the "Valse" by Brahms brought applause and scattered cheers, and Moussorgsky's pow- erful " Great Gate of Kiev" drew a standing ovation. -M.ry Wickend. n Holy Name Society To Hear Dr_ Burkardt Dr. Lohr A.

Schirra, who served at China Lake from April 1952 to February 1954 and was the first project pilot in the Sidewinder missile program, was selected this week to be the pilot of the two-man Gemi- ni-6 spacecraft. The journey into space, ten- tatively scheduled for the first part of 1966, will be CDR. Scbir- ra's second orbital flight. He flew six orbits in a Mercury cap- sule on Oct. 3, 1962. His co-pilot for the Gemini trip will be Air Force Major Thomas P. Stafford. The flighl for America's sec- ond "space t,wins" will be by fi r the most complex ever attempt .. ed by eilher the Uniled St.les or the Soviet Union. Schirra and St. f for d will ma neuver the Gemini-6 to a previously orbit. ed targ.1 rocket and .ttempt to hook up to it_ If successful, the feat would put America .hea d of the Russians in space con- quest, experts say. Midway through tbe flight, Stafford will climb out through a hatch and "walk in space," as Russia's Alexei Leonov did last March 18. Schirra and Stafford will alst) try to collect some cosmic dust.

She played her program just that way and fixed the at­tention of a near-capacity audi­ence at the Station Theatre from the first chords to the final en-core.

Majestic and Gay The Beethoven Sonata in E

Major was majestic and grand and yet gay at the same time_ The Sonata in B Minor by Cho­pin was brilliant, showy and exciting, but one cannot help .wishing that the Brahms Sonata On her original program bad been played instead. .

Will Try Hitching To ISatellitel and IHikel Into Space

CDR. Walter M. Schirra, who served at China Lake from April 1952 to February 1954 and was the first project pilot in the Sidewinder missile program, was selected this week to be the pilot of the two-man Gemi­ni-6 spacecraft.

The journey into space, ten­tatively scheduled for the first part of 1966, will be CDR. Scbir­ra's second orbital flight. He flew six orbits in a Mercury cap­sule on Oct. 3, 1962.

His co-pilot for the Gemini trip will be Air Force Major Thomas P. Stafford.

The flighl for America's sec­ond "space t,wins" will be by fi r the most complex ever attempt .. ed by eilher the Uniled St.les or the Soviet Union. Schirra a nd St. f for d will maneuver the Gemini-6 to a previously orbit. ed targ.1 rocket and .ttempt to hook up to it_ If successful, t he feat would put America .head of the Russians in space con­quest, experts say.

Midway through tbe flight, Stafford will climb out through a hatch and "walk in space," as Russia's Alexei Leonov did last March 18.

Schirra and Stafford will alst) try to collect some cosmic dust. They will use a special contain­er in the attempt to trap micro­meteorites traveling at bullet­like speeds through space_

Supply Man Takes Management A t Fort Lee, Virginia

Vernon W. Hayes, Head of the Supply Division in the Pas­adena Supply Department, is currently attending the Defense Advanced Disposal lIIanagement course at the U.S. Army Logis­tics Management Center at Fort Lee, Virginia.

One of 16 courses offered at the center, the session attended by Hayes lasts three weeks.

Some NavyHQ Personnel May Move to Philly

(From Federal Times) WASHINGTON -The Chief

of the Navy's Bureau of Weap­ons has revealed his first rec­ommendation in a five-year plan to substantially red u c e tbe number of Navy headquarters personnel here, both military and civilian.

Rear Adm. Allen M. S h inn said he will recommend to the Cbief of Naval Material that the functions of the Fleet Readiness and Training group of BuWeps be transferred from Washington to another East Coast site, prob-

. ably Philadelphia. The move probably would be­

gin in one year and take another year to complete. It could affect a9 many as 379 civilians and 107 military.

The Chief of Naval Material heads the Naval Material Sup­port Establishment, which is composed of the Bureaus of Weapons, Ships, Yards and Docks and Supplies and Ac­counts. Each bureau is prepar­ing its own recommendation for relocating NIIISE personnel out­side the Washington area. The BuWeps recommendation is the first ·one to De- made' public.

1. Know and obey all traffic laws.

Passover Is' Joyful

By (Student) Rabbi David Zucker

Starting April 16, Jews all over the world will celebrate the annual festival of Passover, or as it is called in the He· brew, Pesach. This festival commemorates the exodus from Egypt over 3,000 years ago.

The festival of Passover has always been a joyous occas· ion for the Jewish people, for it reminded them that even ·though they may be living under the heel of an oppressor, such as was the case in the Middle Ages, and in the ghetto, that eventually God would save them from their ill fortune, just as had been done with Moses and the children of Israel

. with their escape from the heartless Pharaoh. Today the feast of Passover serves as an 'annual reminder that the fight for freedom is never ended.

During the Passover meal (called the Seder) we shall reo count the story of the deliverance from Egypt as it is written in the Bible. During the period of Passover, which lasts eight days, many Jews do not eat bread with yeast in it, but rather matzah. Matzah (pI. matzot) is made of flour and water, but without yeast. It is very similar to a wafer. The matzah is remindful that when Pharaoh finally allowed the children of Israel to leave Egypt, they had to leave quickly and so did not have the time to allow the dough to rise. Another explanation is that this unleavened bread may have been the normal bread of the slaves in Egypt.

Passover today is an especially joyous occasion for not only are most Jews living in lands wherein they are allowed to .practice their religion freely, but the dream of the restora· tion of the ancient homeland, the rebirth of the State of Israel, is now a reality. The "slavery" of the Jews and the cruel modern Pharaoh of W.W. II were both overcome, and Israel was established. It is indeed a miraculous fight for freedom that we have seen come about in our own lifetime.

As an interesting side·note, the exodus from Egypt and the ancient struggle for freedom was often used as an example here in the United States at the time of the Declaration of Independence. The Liberty Bell, in fact, is inscribed with a sentence from tbe third book of the Bible: "Proclaim liberty throughout the land to all the inhabitants thereof." (Leviti· cus 25:10)

The emancipation of the children of Israel was also a rally· ing cry for those who sought to free the Negroes, one hundred years ago, and again today, in the figure of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, we can see a man of stature leading his people to their freedom against the stubborn resistance of those who would hold back the modern Negro from his struggle for liberty.

Former Rocketeer Editor Ed Laney Killed in Crash

Floyd Edward Laney, former editor of The Rocketeer, Sept. '55 to Oct. '56, was killed in an automobile accident at Yreka in northern California on March 9, it was learned this week. Inter· ment was at Martinez.

ON. Patent Exhibit In Lobby of Mich Lab

On display in the main lobby of Michelson Laboratory is the Office of Naval Research Patent Exhibit which features tech· nological accomplishments made by Navy personnel. Inventive achievements of NOTS employ· ees are also presented, but lim· ited space on the exhibit per· mits only a representative show· ing.

The ~OTS Patent Division, headed by Peter H. Firsht, pat· ent counsel, obtains approxim. ately 56 patents yearly, about 60 per cent of which are issued in Ihe names of NOTS employ. ees.

During fiscal year 1964, 131 NOTS inventors received inven. tion awards totaling $8.900.

The patent exhibit documents creativeness of Americans in the i r accumulation of patents and other forms of information. Considerable advantage is to be gained in meeting many reo search 0 b j e c t i v e s through searches of the U.S. Patent Of· fice, the most comprehensive and detailed single source of technical information available anywhere.

ther by a Navy patent adviser or by a project investigator. About 125 Navy patent advisers stationed at 20 locations in the United States can be called up· on to discuss patent searches with Navy scientists and engin· eers.

RADM. J. K. Leydon Chief of N a val Research has asked the Navy patent organ ization to make a special point of assist­ing Navy scientists and engin­eers in utilizing the U.S. Patent Office and the Navy patent or· ganization to develop informa­tion on prior.art related to fields of interest to the Navy.

A more detailed discussion of the advantages to be g a i ned through searches of the world's largest repository of ide a s is contained in an art i c I e pub­lished in N a val Research Re­views January 1965 pages 7·11.

At NOTS patent searches may be discussed by contacting the Patent Division Code 754 (Ext. 72888) or Code P75401 (Ext. 465).

This information is contained in more than 3,000,000 Ameri· can and 7,000,000 foreign pat· ents, as well as a large collec· tion of technical books, periodi· cals, and industrial publications; and each year 50,000 new pat· ents are added to the collection. By suhject matter, the patents are divided into over 300 main classes and 62,pOO subclasses and no special skiJI is required to conduct an effective search for specific information.

GENERAL MESS

An estimate has been made by the Navy patent'Organizati4n that more than one half of the inventions submitted to that or· ganization for patent prepara· tion were anticipated by patent applications filed previously or by descriptions contained in oth· er publications. Thus research and development time and mono ey may have been expended un· necessarily through failure on the part of the inventors to use the facilities of the U.S. Patent Office. ,.

'Yard Beautiful' Contest Starts Officially Monday

Monday, April 12, signals the beginning of the "Yard Beauti. ful" contest sponsored by the China Lake Community Council and the Oasis Garden ClUb. All station houses, including the Des e r t Park (Wherry) homes and residents who have made improvements to their yards and housing exteriors are encour· aged to en ter.

Judging, to be conducted by Garden Club members, will be on the extent that improvements and additions enhance the beau· ty of the property. Areas of con· sideration will be the condition of the yard and landscaping, and attractiveness of external additions, such as patios and fencing. Housing type will not be taken into consideration, nor will landscaping areas main. tained by the Station.

First prize, awarded to t h. best all-around residence on sta­tion, will be a $10 gift certifi. cate, redeemable at the Outdoor Shop. A total of eight $5 certifi. cites will be issued to runners­up, and Certificates of Mer i t will go to other residents who have improved their houses.

To enter the contest, residents should fill out the enclosed en· try blank, to be sent to the Community Council, P.O. Box 5443, China Lake. Entrants wiJI then be contacted regarding a suitable time for judging their property. The contest will run through Sunday, May 2. Inter· ested persons are encouraged to enter as early as possible to fa· cilitate judging.

The week of April 12 through April 16 will be the final week for pick·up of debris by Public Works. Residents living Sou t h of Blandy and West of Laurit· sen, including the South Cape-­hart area are encouraged to leave items for pick up by the curb during the week.

Response to the pick·up cam· paign has been generally good, and it is hoped that the final week will meet with enthusias· tic partiCipation.

Pick the Right Plant for Right Spot in Garden

BY MARY WICKENDEN Care in selecting the rig h t

plant for the right spot is es· sential for good gardening reo suits.

It's very hard to resist a tray of pretty blooming pansies in the nursery but if you went there to get plants to put in the sunny spot by the front walk resist the pansies and get g._ tanias or gaillardias instead.

In selecting plants for you r spring garden it's wise to ask, "Where will they go?" and "Why do I want them - for cut flow· ers or for color in the yard ?" Then you can choose plants suit· able for your own needs.

There are two factors in des· ert gardening abo u t which something can be done - the poor soil and the heat. The soil can be improved by adding peat moss and fertilizers, and plants can survive the heat if they have plenty of water.

But there are three other fac. tors from which nothing can pro­tect your plants - small chil. dren, large dogs, and s t ron 9 winds. If you have to live with these problems choose rugged p I ant s - petunias, gatanias, sweet alyssum, or marigolds for color, and zinnias, gaillardias, and daisies for cutting.

Geraniums which are the main stay of gardeners in the Los A n gel e s area and along the coast of California will not do well here. The vining types (pel· agoriums) which make such bright beds of color along the city streets, simply die in the

;;;;;;,;;;:;::;:;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;;;,;;;~ I harsh, dry winds, and the big· ger old·f ash ion e d geraniums freeze in the winter. Some have been grown here in pots so they can be moved inside in the win· ter.

Good sense in buying plants prevents disappointment in your garden.
