224 130th Year MADISON, MORNING, JUNE 15, 1970 MORNING FINAL Moon Landing a Hoax, Many Skeptics Claim Moon I see shining in the sky at night." Douglas Bently, a contsruction worker in Miami, said he watched the Moon landing on television, but "I don't believe none of it." Negroes appeared to be more skeptical than whites, said a report of the survey appearing in Sunday's Miami Herald. A BLACK ghetto of Washington, D.C., 86 of 160 persons interviewed 54 per cent said they doubted the Moon voyage had taken place. In Charlotte, N.C., 20 out of 67 Negroes interviewed expressed doubts, while only 15 out of 172 whites indicated skepticism. Skeptics numbered only 2 per cent in Detroit, 4 per cent in Akron, 5 per cent in Miami, 9 per cent in Philadelphia, and 19 per cent in Macon. The survey "made no attempt to reach a scientific cross-sec "Do you really, completely believe that the United States has actually landed men on the Moon and returned them to Earth again?" THE QUESTION elicited frequent snorts of derision and disbelief.

A total of 1,721 persons was asked: tion of the population in the communities involved," the report said. Mrs.

Emma Holmes, 68, a Philadelphia grandmother, was among those who felt the Moon telecast was "staged in the Arizona desert," and a Macon man in his 60s said the setting was a "petrified forest in Arizona." "I'VE HEARD they have a place somewhere that looks like the Moon," said a 20-year-old woman in Charlotte. A woman in Macon said she knows she couldn't watch a telecast from the Moon because her set wouldn't even pick up New York stations. A retired cotton mill worker in Union County, N.C., was more concerned about the religious ramifications. "I believe if Ole Massa had intended for us to go to the Moon, he'd put it closer by," he said. Arabs Execute 2 for Assaults on U.S.
