NASA Fails to Lure
Away Two Air Force
Key Space Experts
WASHINGTON UPI — The Na- j
tional Aeronautics and Space Ad
ministration has tried and failed I
to lure away two of the Air Force’s ,
key space experts, an informed
source said Saturday.
The source identified the targets '
of the unsuccessful raid as Col.
Charles (Chuck* Yeager. Comman
dant of the Aerospace Research
Pilot School at Edwards Air Force I
Base, Calif., and Maj. Robert i
White, also of Edwards, X-15 pilot
who holds the world altitude rec- '
ord for aircraft.
Yeager, who 15 years ago be- '
came the first man to fly faster ]
than the speed of sound, heads the ;
program in which the Air Force
is training its own group of astro- 1
nauts to fly the X-20 or Dyna-Soar ‘
orbital space plane, NASA’s two- 1
man Gemini spacecraft and mili
tary space vehicles of the future. J
White is one of the two men
outside the Mercury man-in-space
project who has qualified as an 5
astronaut by flying a vehicle at
an altitude of 50 miles or more.
He took the rocket-powered X-15
research plane to a record altitude 1
of 314,750 feet — 59.61 miles — 1
last July 17.
The other X-15 pilot to attain <
astronaut altitude is NASA re
search flier Joseph Walker, who
took the craft to 51 miles last Jan.
17.
A representative of NASA was
said to have offered Yeager the
job of directing the training of
astronauts for the Gemini and
Apollo programs—the same type of
work he now does for the Air
Force.
White was invited to accompany
Yeager into NASA, the informant
I said.
He added that both men rejected
the offers — and the hefty pay
boosts that went with it — to re
main with tre Air Force program.

Squads Kept Busy
In the Kremlin
MOSCOW (At — Soviet firing
squads are being kept busy exe
cuting local officials and others
convicted of taking bribes, graft
and illegal currency deals.
Soviet newspapers in the past
week reported at least eight death
sentences in widely scattered lo
:alities for crimes of corruption.
The surge of newspaper accounts
s intended to warn government
officials and others of a general
crackdown on such activity. The
soviet press ordinarily does not
)ublish crime news without such
i motive.
In addition to death sentences,
nore than 20 other persons were
landed prison terms ranging up
0 15 years.
In the latest case, the head of
1 gang of black market and cur
ency operators at Alma Ata in
Cazakhastan was sentenced to be
hot.

ported that shop manager Yakhuy
/altiyev amassed 100,000 rubles
$111,000 at the official exchange
’ate).
He was accused of importing
?old coins and scarce goods from
'oreign countries and trading them
n. Seven accomplices were given
prison terms of up to 12 years.
Five factory managers and
salesmen in Leningrad were sen
tenced to death for siphoning off
surplus goods produced in their
shops and selling them.
More than a dozen accomplices
were sentenced to 15 years or less
in prison.
At Gorky, 400 miles east of Mos
cow, a supply depot chief was
, sentenced to death for demanding
kickbacks from state drivers he
hired at high salaries.
The former mayor of Dushanbe,
capnai oi me sman soumern so
viet Republic of Tadzhikistan, re
ceved the death sentence for tak
ing graft in the distribution of
state-administered apartments and
property lots and the allocation
of priorities for purchase of auto
mobiles. Three associates received
