LIFT RESTRICTIONS . . .
SOCHI, Soviet Union UF> — Ap
parently prodded by the U.S. Em
bassy, Soviet authorities relaxed
their restrictions on Benny Good
man last night and allowed Ameri
can companies to film and record
a concert here by his band.
The Soviets had stopped an RCA
Victor recording team and an NBC
television crew from taping a per
formance by Goodman and his
band Monday night in this Black
Sea resort town.
Officials relented after Goodman
and a U.S. Embassy representative
accompanying the party made calls
to Moscow.

BENNY GOODMAN i&all
RUNS INTO RESTRICTIONS
SOCHI, Soviet Union MPi —
Benny Goodman, whose clarinet
pleased Nikita Khrushchev in Mos
cow, ran into restrictions in the
Soviet Premier’s favorite holiday
spot.
As Goodman and his band played
their second concert before an en
thusiastic audience in this Black
Sea resort town Monday night,
Soviet officials:
1. Ordered RCA Victor officials
to stop recording the concert.
2. Told Terrence F. Catherman,
of Dearborn, Mich., cultural officer
of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow,
to stop translating Goodman’s re
marks for the audience. A Soviet
translator was put on the job.
3. Cracked down on the band
members’ practice of distributing
Benny Goodman buttons to Soviet
admirers.
Goodman and his band have been
receiving a warm response from
audiences since they opened their
six-week tour in Moscow last
week. The band leader asked
Catherman to interpret for him
because the official Soviet inter
preter was not translating any of
his informal remarks. She limited
herself to announcing the numbers
being played.
An old Indian prayer that holds
a timeless tolerance: “Great spirit,
help me never to judge another
man until I have walked two
weeks in his moccasins.”
YAW AND ATTITUDE
BLAMED FOR OVERSHOOT
WASHINGTON (JP) — Astronaut
Malcolm Scott Carpenter said yes
terday an error in yaw and atti
tude was primarily responsible for
the 250-mlle overshoot of his orbital
night.
Carpenter told newsmen that
he had seen Monday a detailed
report on the flight, which indi
cated there were four reasons for
his landing outside of the planned
area.
But the big one, he said, was
the yaw, which means his craft
was swaying left and right in an
improper fashion, and the im
perfect attitude or angie with re
lation to the earth’s surface.
Carpenter said the impulse of
the retro rockets, which slowed his
vehicle for the descent out of orbit,
was slightly under the planned
force, and the braking rockets also
fired a bit late.
He said he could not remember
the fourth reason.

NEW HELICOPTER CAPABLE
OF LIFTING 10 TONS
STRATFORD, Conn. W — A
turbine-powered Sikorsky helicop
ter, capable of lifting 10 tons, made
its first public flight yesterday.
The S-64 Skycrane, the largest
in the Western world, is powered
by two 4,050 horsepower turbine
engines and can carry cargoes of
6 tons for 200 miles, or 10-ton
loads for shorter distances.
Lee S. Johnson, Sikorsky gen
eral manager, said the copter was
designed for more extensive mili
tary and commercial use. Two are
being built for delivery to West
Germany in December.
The S-64 has no cargo or pas
senger cabin. It carries loads slung
underneath, so that gross weight,
rather than bulk, controls load
limits.

FIND MORE HIGH EXPLOSIVES
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. M—
Six more 55-gallon drums of high
ly explosive metallic sodium have
turned up off the Florida coast,
bringing the total to nine, a Navy
official reported Monday night.
Lt. Cmdr. Elmer Schumaker, of
the Naval Ordnance Facility in Ft.
Lauderdale, said four of the drums
turned up in Biscayne Bay, which
stretches along the coast in the
Miami area, and two others in the
Florida Keys.
Three of the drums turned up
previously, one opposite the home
of President Kennedy’s father at
Palm Beach, Schumaker said Naval
Intelligence is investigating.

Pilot Tried Halt
Takeoff of Jetliner
PARIS — Evidence mounted
yesterday that the pilot of the
chartered jetliner that crashed with
the loss of 130 lives made a des
perate attempt to halt his takeoff.
The four-engine, Air France
Boeing 707 jet rose only a few
feet before plunging to earth,
smashing through a fence and ex
ploding into flames at Orly Air
port Sunday. All 121 American
passengers, including many Atlanta
cultural leaders, eight crewmen
and Air France’s Atlanta agent
were killed.
The investigation of the crash
may not be completed for six
months, but there were a number
of indications that Capt. Roland
Hoche, one of Air France’s most
experienced pilots, was aware of
impending disaster and frantically
tried to halt the huge craft.
Pierre Loiseau, a radio operator
at the Orly control tower, said he
saw smoke coming from the big
jet's wheels, indicating the pilot
slammed on the brakes as the
plane approached its normal take
off point. Loiseau said the plane
swayed from side to side as though
the pilot was maneuvering in an
effort to cut speed.
Skid marks on the- runway indi
cated the pilot had his brakes on
for about 500 yards.
Investigators reportedly found
the plane’s throttle levers in the
reverse position, another indica
tion that the pilot tried vainly to
halt the jet.
Francoise Authie, 23, one of the
stewardesses who were the only
survivors, said she felt the engines
slow as the plane rolled down
the runway.
“When the engines slowed down
I knew we would not take off,” she
said. “I -dad—"i*©r—Imagine' fair a
moment that were were in danger.
Then it happened — like that —
suddenly.”
She said there were several jolts
as the plane came apart with a
loud crashing noise.
Atlanta Mayor Ivan Allen Jr.
reported it may be some time
before identification of the 105
Atlantans killed in the crash is
completed and arrangements are
made to send the bodies home.
