THIS IS HOW the Gemini 7 spacecraft looked to astro- nauts Wally Schirra and Tom Stafford in Gemini 6 30 Days Derived From Gemini 7 By RALPH DIGHTON HOUSTON (AP)--The record- breaking flight of Gemini 7's "crummy and itchy' 'crew al- ready has persuaded medical officers that future pilots will be able to endure the confine- ment of space travel for at least 30 days. Dr. Charles Berry, Gemini flight surgeon, says '"'There is no limit to in-flight time if we can solve the comfort problem." "T personally feel the Gemini 7 astronauts will be in no worse shape after 14 days than the Gemini 5 pilots were after eight days," he said. In their six- by eight-foot in- strument - jammed cabin air force Lt.-Col.. Frank Borman and navy Cmdr. James A. Lo- yell Jr. have been unable to bathe, shave or even stretch out full length since their 'aunch Dec. 4. They have made only a few complaints, however, except to say they felt "crummy and itchy' and that they were too warm when required to. wear pressure suits. When allowed to during their historic rendez- vous Wednesday. The pic- ture made on 70 mm. color film, was released today In Space wear, both agreed that was "'the only way to fly." "Admittedly, Gemini 7 is aj small spacecraft," Dr. Berry! said in an interview toward the end of the two-week flight. "But if they had a larger vehicle in which they could move around I believe they could go to 30 days or even longer. "These two men have adapted normally in their heart rates, sleep and performance. For the rest of the flight we are going to watch closely the small com- ASTRONAUTS Frank Bor- man and James Lovell in their Gemini 7 spacecraft move toward Gemini 6 dur- ing the rendezvous between the two ships 160 miles above the earth Wednes- day.

SPARED MOTION ILLS Dr. Berry said Borman and Lovell have shown no signs of the motion sickness suffered by two of the three men aboard the Russian Voskhod I space- craft in October, 1964. Dr. Berry said there are no plans to let future astronauts shave.

The fine is only £2 ($6), but the London Transport Execu- tive was so angry it declined to cough up. "This bus was snatched by the bobbies in a very unfair way," said a transport spokes- man. "The driver could not pull into his reguiar stopping | place because several private cars were parked there. "It was the end of the route, so everyone got out and an inspector told the police to remove the parked cars. In- stead, they It's a bit thick." The bus was driven to a po- lice pound, where it will stay until the transport executive pays the fine. WE'RE SPECIALISTS IN OUTFITTING Sizes 44 to 60 MR.
