‘With You’
Encourages
Sen. Kennedy
By BICHARD GROSS
HYANNIS PORT, Mass.
(UPl)—Cries of "We're with
you, Ted," greeted Sen. Ed
ward M. Kennedy as he entered
St. Xavier Church here, his
third public appearance since
the fatal accident last weekend
which caused the drowning of
pretty blonde secretary Miss
Mary Jo Kopechne.
Kennedy, accompanied by his
pregnant wife, Joan, and two of
his three children sat. motion
less In his pew Sunday as Msgr.
William Thomson read from the
Epistle of St. Paul:
“No test has been sent you
that does not come to all men.
Moreover, God keeps his
promise. He will not let you be
tested beyond your strength. He
will give you with the test a
way of emerging from It
successfully, and you may be
able to endure It."
The Massachusetts Democrat
was mobbed and applauded as
he entered and emerged from
the white clapboard church
while thousands of telegrams,
continued to flood the Kennedy
compound urging him not jq,
resign.
In his dramatic television
statement Friday night Kenne
dy had said that his admission
of guilt to leaving the scene of
the fatal accident had caused
him to ponder the possibility of
resigning his U.S. Senate seat.
Rene Page of Mahsrfield, a
regional supervisor of the
Western Union Telegraph Co.
office in Hyannis, said Sunday
somewhere between 25,000 and
30,000 telegrams had been
delivered to the compound since
Saturday morning, a figure he
described as comparable to the
number last summer urging
Kennedy to seek the Democra
tic presidential nomination.
In Boston, Western Union
Asst. Operations Manager John
Annand said Suday, "They’re
still coming In pretty heavy,
but nothing like Friday night."
He estimated the number of
wires addressed to Kennedy at
either Hyannis Port or Boston—
all being channelled through
Hyannis —at "very roughly
35,000 to 45,000," and said extra
help was still on duty trying to
clear up a large backlog.
A Kennedy aide said on
Saturday the messages were
running 100 to 1 in Kennedy’s
favor and the senator "obvious
ly was moved" by the
“overwhelming" favorable re
sponse to his televised plea for
advice.

Scientists Study
Rocks From Moon
By EDWARD K. DELONG
UPI Space Writer
SPACE CENTER, Houston
(UPI) —A week after two
Apollo 11 astronauts lifted off
its surface, scientists today
worked on a pair of important
new finds about the nature of
the moon.
While astronauts Neil A.
Armstrong, Edwin E. "Buzz"
Aldrin and Michael Collins
relaxed in the commodious
quarantine quarters of the
Lunar Receiving Laboratory
(LRL) in Houston, tape
recording everything they could
recall from their flight, scien
tists said:
—At least one of the dusty
black rocks Armstrong and
Aldrin brought back from their
two-hour walk on the lunar
surface was igneous—formed
by hot liquid or putty-like
material which later cooled.
— Several sizable tremors

have been recorded on the
moon’s surface since the
astronauts set out a little
mconquake meter during their
walk, including 14 in the last
two days which are believed to
have been moonslides, and one
believed to have been a five
minute moonquake, proving the
moon Is not dead.
Tape Recollections
Armstrong, Aldrin and Collins
spent more than six hours
Sunday taping their recollec
tions of their journey, covering
the flight equipment and the
trip from the earth to the moon
In two sessions. They resumed
today with the actual landing,
mocnwalk and their return to
earth still to be covered.
They were visited Sunday by
their families who talked to
them through a window. After a
dinner break and a final
debriefing session, Armstrong
and Collins played a game of
ping pong and Aldrin watched a
movie before retiring.
Dr. William Carpentier, the
physician who accompanied
them to Houston after their
Pacific Ocean splashdown, said
all three men were in excellent
condition and had received no
medication of any type since
returning to earth.
Carpentier also disclosed that
the three astronauts, space
engineer John Hirasaki and
himself had all come into direct
contact with powdery-like lunar
surface material with no ill
effects. ii
Technicians worked around
the clock on the lunar rocks
and soil, which were flown to
the Space Center from the
recovery carrier Hornet last
w eek. __
Core tubes from the lunar
surface were sent to a
biological laboratory where
germ free mice and other living
organisms will be exposed to
them to check far possible
lethal or harmful moon germs.
The rocks were unidentifiable
under a heavy layer of black,
sooty lunar dust at the
dramatic moment when the top
of an aluminum box was
removed in a vacuum chamber
Saturday and eager scientists
looked for the first time on
extraterrestial matter.
But when the first sample
was placed on a viewing stand
for better study Sunday, some
of the dust fell off and a
crystalline structure was re
vealed beneath.

rock,” said Dr. Elbert A. King,
curator of the LRL. Although
moon rock had been suspected
to be igneous, it was the first
time it had been confirmed.
On the heels of the stunning
success of the moon landing,
the United States was aiming
for another spectacular in
space this week.

weeks to spend in isolation in

elaborate precautions to insure
they would not infect the earth
if they brought back any germs

The reception they got at
nearby Ellington Air Force
Base early Sunday had Aldrin
misty-eyed and his fellow
astronauts grateful and
touched.
“In coming out and welcom

yourselves," Armstrong told
the crowd through the trailer’s
public-address system, looking

“It was most of you out there

work, put together five Apollo
flights in a row, each contribut

said.
Aldrin said the historic moon
