American Soviets Expel YMCA Tourist MOSCOW (P- The Soviet Union today expelled a young American YMCA tourist, accusing him of tryto enlist a Ukrainian in "antiSoviet agitation" by giving him clothes, three Bibles and American publications. The American was identified as James Schultz of Washington University, St. Louis, Mo. An article in the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda said that Schultz' act had "caused indignation among honest people and he is being expelled.

He forgot the elementary rules of decency and politeness." Schultz was the third American ordered out of the Soviet Union in as many days. On Wednesday Col. Edwin M. Kirton, the U. S.

Air Attache in the Soviet Capital, was accused of setting up a spy apparatus and told to go. Thursday Robert Christner, 27, a tourlist from Sparks, was cused of taking spy photographs and expelled. The American Embassy said it had no information on the Schultz case. Komsomolskaya Pravda said that the incident happened in Kiev, the Ukrainian capital. It said Schultz found there "a rascal' ready to sell his honor for foreign rags." Hemingway Calls Report of Death 'Tasteless Joke' MADRID (UPI) American novelist Earnest Hemingway, who was rumored to have died last weekend, said his supposed death was a "tasteless joke."

Hoag said this morning he had no timetable established to accomplish the remainder of the steps necessary to materialize the project. Yoon Maps South Korean Premier Fight Just Help Yourself Russian women count out their own pay at shoe factory in Lvov. The Soviets say the plant, given the title of "Enterprise of Communist Labor, operates without timekeepers, checkers or U.S. Orbits Space Balloon With Message (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) mission but that the balloon itself had been ejected at the chosen height and had been inflated to carry out its mission as a backboard for bouncing radio signals.

NASA said the orbit had been confirmed both visually and by telemetry at the jet propulsion laboratory at Pasadena, Calif. At that stage, T. Keith Glennan, administrator of the space agency, officially named the new satellite Echo I. A few minutes before the NASA announcement Robert Gray, top project official, had told newsmen "there is no reason to doubt that the orbit attempt was completely successful." Standing as tall as a 10-story building, the big ball would be the largest, but not the heaviest satellite ever sent aloft. It was aimed at a circular orbit 1,000 miles above the earth.

Also dubbed a satelloon, it would shine bright as a star and be clearly visible in areas over which it passed during hours of darkness. Strong optical aids would be needed it in the daytime. The 92-foot Thor-Delta blasted off at 4:40 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. The aluminum-coated plastic balloon was folded accordionfashion in a magnesium container tucked in the rocket's nose.

Attempts early Tuesday and Wednesday to orbit the big balloon were postponed because of technical problems with the booster rocket. The first effort to launch an Echo satellite failed last May 13 because of a malfunction of small helium jets designed to help, control the flight of the Thor-Delta. The launching appeared smooth as the three-stage rocket rose into the early morning sky, spurting a red-orange tail of fire. Observers saw what appeared to be second stage ignition about three minutes after lift off. As the hot Thor-Delta penetrated the cold air of the upper atmosphere a bright cloud of vapor blossomed around the rocket.

The rays of the sun, still below the horizon, illuminated this trail for several minutes after the rocket vanished from sight. If Echo I orbits, widely scattered ground stations will try to bounce radio signals and voice messages off its mirror-like surface as it whirls across the sky at 16,000 miles an hour. The main experiment will be an effort to exchange signals and messages between Bell Telephone's Holmdel, N. J. laboratories and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory tracking station at Goldstone.

Calif. These two stations warmed up for the try last week by successfully communicating via the moon. Deaf Mute Faces Trial August 30 For Rape Attempt A deaf Negro charged with attempted rape of a five-year-old girl will be tried by a jury Aug. 30, it was decided today. Court of Record Judge M.

He shook his head negatively, and then wrote not guilty on the charge sheet.

TRADE UP TO a better used car from one of the many bargains offered daily in the Classified Section. SEOUL, South Korea (API Election of Yoon Bo-sun as president of South Korea today set the stage for a bitter factional fight for the premiership, the position of real power under South Korea's new constitution. Yoon, 62- year-old elder statesman of the Democratic party and one of Korea's oldtime fighters for independence from Japan, won overwhelming approval from the newly elected National Assembly. Balloting was quiet in contrast to the squabbling and confusion that marked past assemblies. The joint session gave Yoon 208 of the 260 votes cast, 32 more than the two thirds necessary.

His nearest opponent, Kim Changa Confucian scholar, received only 29. The president now has only a shadow of the power once wielded by Syngman Rhee, who was forced out of power by the spring "student revolution." Rhee now is in exile in Hawaii. Yoon's first big job as president will be to nominate a premier for approval by the House of Representatives, which is controlled by the Democrats. If his choice is not approved, he must find someone else. Yoon is expected to name Kim Do-yun, a former finance minister and leader of the old-line faction in the sharply divided Democratic party.

A bitter fight is expected between Kim and former vice president Dr. John M. Chang, who has had his eyes on the premiership since Rhee's overthrow.
