NEMAN A IS FLOODED
FAIRBANKS Only a small
section of the town of Nenana re
mains dry today after high water
from the Tanana River has contin
ued to :pill into the town from a
wide cut about a half mile above
the Alaska Railroad bridge. The
water is coming through a wide
gap in a low stretch of land where
15 families evacuated themselves
earlier in the . week. .
Robert Coghill of Nenana, told
Leonard Lobban, regional Civil
Defense director at his headquar
ters here that the town was nearly
completely awash with water but
Front Street, next to the railroad
is dry. Coghill said there is no real
danger.
Meanwhile the mode of convey
ance in Nenana is rubber rafts
and rowboats.
Rev. B. O. Wilson, a Civil Air
Patrol pilot, who flew a mercy
mission into the village of Choak
yitski on the Black River yester
day with 2400 pounds of food for
hungry villagers, reported today
that high water again has covered
Fort Yukon again.
X-15 TAKES ON A
DANGEROUS DESCENT
EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE.
Calif. M — X-15 pilot Bob White
streaked into space today, then
plunged back in the rocket plane’s
most dangerous descent yet.
Zooming at 3,750 miles an hour
to a height of 129,000 feet, White
started his long dive near the
Califomia-Nevada border 200 miles
northeast of here.
The planned speed was 3,900
mph and planned altitude 162,000
feet. There was no immediate ex
planation of why the goals were not
achieved.
Operating small steam jets like
hose on Mercury astronaut’s cap
sules, White forced the X-15’s
Dullet-shaped nose upward into
he highest "angle of attack” the
Space Dart has yet attempted.
Angle of attack means the angle
it which the X-15 re-enters the
atmosphere. Today’s angle was 20
legrees above the horizontal, ex
posing much of the X-15’s under
surface to searing heat during its
plunge through the resisting air.
Fhe highest angle previously at
empted was 18 degrees.
Although such maneuvers are
langerous and could tear the wings
rff conventional planes, they will
be necessary to brake the descent
of the future space craft.
