"The Soviet people send the courageous American cosmo. naut Gordon Cooper their con- gratulations and best wishes."

But they have divulged little of their cosmonauts' condition. U.S. space agency doctors had expressed fears beforehand that Cooper might faint~or worse-- when he came down, ob- ad were delighted he did not, President Kennedy, who con- gratulated the 36-year-old Okla: homa air force major by telee phone a few minutes after he landed, said over radio and television that Cooper's feat "represents a great achieve- ment for our society and <a mal.
