December 17, 1965 was a momentous day in the United States. Triumphal successes were made in the U.S.,s bid for supremacy in the space race, Gemini VI and Gemini VII had just completed an unprecedented rendezvous in space. Space records of virtually every category were toppled. The U.S. had scored more than 1300 hours of manned space flights against Soviet Russia's 507. The two week flight of Gemini VII almost tripled the time of the five-day manned flight of Russia. The U.S. had more men in space at one time ffour compared to Russia's threej. The U.S. also had more total or- bits, 400 against 292. In the U.S., live telecasts were made from the carrier Wasp stationed in the Atlantic of the splash-down of Gemini VI. These telecasts were monitored coast-to-coast and were viewed on our classroom sets early that December morning. After viewing the delicate recovery of the space capsule, third grade students from Miss Flatt's class wrote brief news flashes of this impressive event. Here then is how these news events are interpre- tated by our young Imperial reporters, Gemini 6 landed safely in a raft called Wasp. The Astronaut had a fear well greting. The men were glad to be back. -Russel Hendee Carrier Wasp went up from Cape Ken- nedy. lt landed in the Atlantic Ocean. Ge- mini 6 is a spacecraft. A ship came and pict it up. -Grace Briggs One time 4 helicopters tried to catch a Carrier Wasp. There once was a 3 ton ship. lt was a real big ship. There were three swimmers in the Carrier Wasp. But they got out. -Geva Dutton l saw some people on a big boat with the Carrier Wasp on it. Giraird and Staf- ford were in the Carrier Wasp. A heli- copter was in the sky. Then the Carrier Wasp landed on the boat. lt was open. Then the men came out and shook hands. -Kathie S. They went l85 orbits of the atmosphere in space and Stafford came out of the spacecrotf and everyone said, Hurrah! -Gary Ten Broek Gemini 6 was blasted off. Then they blasted off Gemini 7. While those two spaceships were up there they met each other. They were going about five miles for seckents. -Gary Means Two space men, Giraud and Stafford rist there lives today. They landed in the Atlantic Ocean. The ship that picked up the two space men were on the Carrier Wasp line. -Ricky Harmon At first all you could, see was a little of it on the Atlantic Ocean. There were four helicoptors and a great big 45 ton aircraft carrier called the Carrier Wasp. The names of the two astronauts were Capt. Giraud and Mr. Stafford. They started at Cape Kennedy and went past our atmosphere and it took about a clay. The giant carrier had 4 stories. -Kenny Rothwell

A TRIP TO THE MOON Let's take a ride in the new Titan 5 to the moon and see what happens to real men that fly around in space. First of all they need 500 tons of chemicals to make it, You burn, and weld, mix, and bolt it together, and put it to the test. While the men are doing this other men are getting the astronauts ready for the flight, for an example, Armstrong and Scott, they had to be put into chairs that twirl and turn in every direction because the space ship might do the same thing, they had to be put in rooms and get use to being alone as in the rocket. Mean while back at the lab the rocket is just my fgetting the Iastrgeck, the engine. The engine works like 90 cars with horsepower. It has three stages, no. I. the main engine, no. 2 another engine, no. 3 the capsule. All right the men are getting into there suits and into the space ship. The count down, IO, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, I, igni- tion, lift off! b-o--o-m-its of. the men are in space. The station has power over it until it's in orbit. Tink, bank, astroides are bouncing off the space-craft. One thousand miles goes by fast in a rocket and we're soon there. Now let's take a walk, There are big craters and mountains all around, and caves. The reason why I went here was that I thought is would be fun for me to learn and to tell others. JAMES WILLIAMS A TRIP TO THE MOON If you were going to take a trip to the moon the Iogicul place to get on the rocket is Cape Cined. Then you have to pay a lot of money for the rocket and the rocket suit. The rocket suit has a hialment and a zip suit. Userlly the suits are gray. Then you step on the stair and get in the rocket and set down. Then you are about to take off. They light the fire and you can hear the peo- ple counting IO, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, I, blast off! Now you my be a little scared but it's to late to screem, HELP, HELP. So you finally get to the moon. Now you can see the earth turning very s-I-o-w. On the moon there are little dips on the sirece. On the moon you can float, not on water, but on air. After about three day's you get pretty tired of it so you start back to Cape-Canedy. About two more day you get back at Cap-Cainedy, It would be very good to be on land again. -Deborah Smith MY KITTY My kitty is pretty, Fat and plump, He climbs a tree Comes down with a bump. He drinks from a saucer, And eats from a dish. He climbs in the fish bowl Looking for fish. 3. K WM' Essiylg S-...A ss, Figwunegi. liemnv STUDENTS NOT PICTURED Ras Sheryl HONOR.

Spanish - Science - Geographyg these 0,9 65,6 46 Ogg! '1,O4G,,, subjects are 'coming alive' for the fifth and sixth grade classes through the medium of Educational Television. Each of two class- rooms has an ETV set in their room. By using films and other visual aids, the Educational Television programs offer a very valuable and professional addition to the classroom. Science, especially, is promoted by the time and money that can be saved on the equip- ment utilized in staging the experiments used in demonstrations. Geography seems to 'come alive' when the ocean floor or territory under study is flashed on the screen. Audio-lingual is the approach used in the conversational Spanish program. In this meth- od there is no writing or translating. The teacher speaks the words and phrases asso- ciating them with pictures portraying their meaning. Then repeats the words or phrases with the children joining in. There is much response and enthusiasm for learning being generated by this method of teaching. 00 Q ff 0 e 'fr O0 AF Q 2,66 l l l 5 , l i ri
