Motion Pictures Taken of
Glenn Inside Spacecraft
NEW YORK UP) — Motion pic
tures taken inside John H.
Glenn Jr.’s space capsule showed
Thursday that the force of the
retro-rocket braking as he re
entered the atmosphere caused
him to close his eyes.
This was the point at which he
said:
“It felt like it was going to
send me clear back to Hawaii.”
The rest of the film shows him
glancing left and right, looking
at various instruments, or out a
porthole, without apparent dis
comfort.
The automatically operated
camera took the pictures in 16 mm
color to show Glenn’s facial re
actions during his triple orbit of
the earth Tuesday.
The camera clicked at a much
slower rate, however, than the 32
frames a second in the average
movie.
Glenn’s reaction was but tem
porary and his eyes soon were
wide open and observant again.
The camera was fixed so that
it showed Glenn from the top of
his helmet to the lower part of
his chest.
Mosquitoes are B-I-G . . .
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. W —
Mosquitos are neither as big nor
as clever as they were when
James Paulk was a boy in Syca
more, Ga.
The way he tells it, the tolks
fought a losing battle with them.
Conventional window screens
wouldn’t even slow down the
skeeters.
Folks then tried chicken wire
on the windows, but the fiends
licked that problem. Big mosqui
toes would push the little mos
quitoes through the chicken wire
and then the little mosquitoes
would open the door and let the
big mosquitoes in.
The big mosquitoes in turn
would hold up the bed covers
while the little ones went to
feasting.
Paulk, who is supervisor of the
City Fire Prevention Bureau,
spun his story Wednesday to cap
ture a Lions dub trophy as 1962
champion liar.
