Baha’i Faith Members
Congregate In London
LONDON — Some 6,200 mem
bers of the Baha’i Faith from over
70 countries packed the Royal
Albert Hall to capacity Sunday,
April 28, as 34-year-old African
Negro, Enoch Olinga, first mem
ber of his tribe to become a Baha’i,
rose to open, as chairman, the
greatest Baha’i assembly ever seen
in the century-long history of the
faith.
Amatu’l Baha Ruhiyyi Khanum,
widow of Shoghi Effendi, great
grandson of the founder who died
in London in 1957, related the
story of the progress within the
past ten years. Today Baha’i Faith
has adherents in 259 countries and
its writings had been translated
into 309 languages of which al
most one-third — 97 were African.
“The majority of people in this
world are not white,” she said,
“and the majority of those who
will eventually be within the
Baha’i Faith are not white. White
people hold no dominant or pri
vileged position in the faith.”
In India there are now over
90.000 Baha’is, in Africa over
60.000 and in Southeast Asia some
28,000.
Representing Nome were Mr.
and Mrs. Blumenstein.

“I’m not scared.” he told news
men when he announced he had
the dread disease.
Kerr, who had served in base
ball as a player, manager and

Studies Being Made on
Prospects to Send Men
To Mars In the 1970s
HOUSTON, Tex. UP) — Maxime
Faget, an assistant director of the
Manned Spacecraft Center, said
Saturday studies are being conduct
ed on the prospects of sending
men to Mars in the first half of
the 1970s.
The flight would take more than
a year and probably would be
made by three to 12 astronauts in
a three-section spaceship, Faget
said. ,
He said one section, or module,
would house the spacemen most
of their journey, another would
protect them from the heat gen
erated on re-entering the earth’s
atmosphere at speeds up to 35,000
miles an hour and the third would
be used to land some of the crew
on Mars.
Faget said $150,000 has been
budgeted to study the re-entry
module and $100,000 has been al
located for study of the module
to house the crew. He said the
center also plans a study of the
landing module.
It will be at least a year or two
before scientists are able to de
termine if the mission is feasible,
he said.
Faget said the flight would have
to be made when the earth and
Mars were close to each other on
their orbits around the sun.
He said the most favorable year
would be 1971, but the flight also
could be made in 1973 or 1975. If
the flight is not made then, he said,
it will be about 20 years before
the two planets are that close
together again.

British Papers Pay
Tribute to American
I Mt. Everest Expedition
LONDON (iP — Two British
newspapers paid tribute editorially
Saturday to the success of the
American Everest expedition.
| ‘'The American party’s ascent
of Everest is a fine achievement—
[ the first major success for Ameri
can climbers in the Himalayas,”
said the Guardian of Manchester.
The Daily Telegraph comment
ed:
“As in the four-minute mile,
what Sir John Hunt describes as
a ‘psychological barrier’ existed.
Once pierced, the ascent becomes
more feasible, though never easy.
Everest will never become a prob
lem for the anti-litter league.”
The Daily Mail came out with
two cartoons poking fun at the
American team’s large resources
of personnel and equipment.
A front-page cartoon featured
a movie poster carrying the title
‘‘Everest Conquered” with mock
publicity puffs for “thousands of
extras” and “huge supporting cast.”
On an inside page was a cartoon
playing up the $400,000 cost of
the expedition. It showed a bull
dozer tearing chunks off the
Everest summit with an American
climber telling Himalayan dig
nitaries:
“What are we doing? At four
pounds ($11.20) a foot we’re taking
it home, that’s what.”
