THE POST-STANDARD, Syracuse, N. Friday, October 'V 1955, 1 1 -i River Receding After 326 TAMPICO, Mexico, Oct. 6 UP)-The Panuco River leveled off overnight, bringing hope to this Good- devastated oil port and the surrounding area where, by unofficial count 326 persons have perished, was conditioned, however, by reports of heavy rains to the west flooding the Zempoal River, a tributary of the Pariuco. Red Cross officials said a new crest is expected within 24 hours. This threat of another rise and lack of drinking water and-food spurred efforts to evacuate persons still living in the small part of Tampico remaining above water.

A Mexico City newsman reported two incidents of rioting yesterday among refugees clamoring for drinking water. At 5 a.m. a fleet of 14 helicopters trom the U.S. aircraft carrier Sai- pan, anchored off Tampico, started airlifting flood victims to the airport built on high ground. From there passenger planes flew them to refugee centers in Mexico's interior.

Refugees Jam Tampico Tampico, a city with a normal population of 110,000 now swollen by 55,000 to 70,000 refugees from the surrounding coastal plain, is almost inundated. All but three of the city's stores are under water. Government officials said reports of the Zempoal River's overflow posed the danger that houses already flooded on the edge of Tampico's isolated center might be collapsed by the force of the current. Refugees given priority today in the airlift to the airport were those living in shelters on the fringe of the unflooded zone be returned directly to their WT--Twenty-four 1 -avel-worn gener- former homes in what now is East HE'LL BE A LYON AMONG Edward L.

But even though contracts are now being let for the joint civilian- military scientific research program, neither the Pentagon experts nor any other officials have decided yet the exact shape and size of the first space roamer.

There have been predictions it would approximate the size of a basketball. Today's announcement said only it would be "small," but large enough to contain instruments to send back reports on its orbiting jpurney 300 miles above.the earth. Other sources have indicated tiiat it probably-would be months, possibly late this -year or early rext year, before scientists could settle on an exact design. The White House announced 'on July 29 that the United States would build an 'earth-circling, unmanned satellite vehicle as part of the program for the International Geophysical Year (July December 1958). The three agencies in the project are National Academy of Sciences, the National Science Foundation and the Defense Department.

Today's announcement did disclose some general design for firing the little satellite (first of others to come) through the heat- producing friction of the earth's atmosphere into the thin air of outer space. It said the firing will be in three stages--one rocket to start the device into flight vertically, a second io bend the satellite from its initial vertical course toward a sidelong orbiting path, aad a third to kick the satellite, in its final approach to orbit, up to a top speed of about 18,000 m.p.h. Each rocket c-ngine will drop off as its fuel is exhausted. When the little satellite t.U i WU11U earth once every two or three hours, the announcement predicted. Then, "several" days later, its momentum will be expended and it will descend gradually into the earth's atmosphere, where its still high speed will melt it into nothing.
