GEMINI CHASING SATELLITE ASTRONAUTS ON WAY TO EIGHT DAYS HOUSTON, Tex. (AP)--The Gemini 5 astronauts, well - rested after sound sleeping pe- riods, swept into their third day in space today and prepared to 'chase a phantom satellite across the skies. L. Gordon Cooper Jr., and Charles Conrad Jr, were to he- gin pursuing the imaginary sa- tellite about 12:50 p.m. EDT in a rehearsal for the Gemini 6 flight scheduled in October. The Gemini 5 capsule, circl- ing the earth every 94 minutes and 30 seconds, was due to start its 32nd orbit just before noon EDT. Flight controllers were confi- dent the mission would go the full eight days, ending with a splashdown in. the Atlantic ocean Sunday. Successful com- pletion would eclipse the Rus- sian endurance record of five days. lots to continue on a day-to-day basis. The trouble with a balky fuel-cell oxygen supply was im- proving steadily. Mrs. Conrad was, in the Hous- ton control centre today during a Gemini 5 pass overhead. As- tronaut James A. McDivitt, the capsule communicator, acted as a go-between in a brief ex- change between husband and wife, who was in a glass-en- closed viewing room. TALKS TO WIFE Here's how it went: McDivitt: "Why not make a few comments for the better sex. ... Jane is here." Conrad: "Hello there, how're all the boys doing?" McDivitt: "She says 'Fine ." Both astronauts were re- ported in fine spirits after log- ging 10 hours sleep in the sec- ond day, Medical experts had been concerned because each rocket would soar into an. orbit similar to that of the Gemini 5 capsule, From the ground, mis- sion control would send track- ing information to the capsule. The astronauts, using their rocket thrusters, would try to manoeuvre into the vicinity of the imaginary rocket. Rendezvous experience is im- portant because, in the immedi- ate future, the object of Gemini 6 is to meet with an Agena rocket, FOR MOON FLIGHT And, in the more distant fu- ture, rendezvous is a necessary part of man's hope of flying to the moon and back in this dec- ade. The problem of sleep for the astronauts bothered space agency doctors Sunday. The as- urs of sleep during their first 30 hours in flight. Both men reported extensive naps.

It's where both of us have been having to do some of the tests." Later, the Mission Control Centre scrapped one of the scheduled experiments -- in- volving the firing of rocket thrusters--because the noise might disturb the astronaut who was sleeping.

San) The total amount of munici- pal tax arrears at the end of the year was $84,500,000--more than $13 for every man, woman and child in the province, the minister said. He blamed late billing of realty and business taxes for most of the tax arrears. Delays of up to seven months were evident in some municipalities between the time the local coun- cil passed its estimated expen- ditures for the year, and the time the tax bills went out. BORROW TOO MUCH Mr. Spooner said municipali- ties slow in raising their tax dollars were forced into short- term borrowing. Assuming an interest rate of six per cent, this meant charges of almost $100,000 a week on the $85,400,- 000 in tax arrears.
