Next Atomic Test Set For April 28
LAS VEGAS NEV UP The Atomic Energy Commission said Monday it plans no further nuclear experiments at the Nevada Proving Grounds until the public test scheduled for April 26. The 12th shot of the series was fired Friday atop a 400 foot tower at Frenchman Flat. It was the most elaborate effects test of the 1955 series and exploded with the force of 25 000 tons of TNT amid more than a million dollars of equipment at 9 15 am est. Although the sun was shining here the flash was plainly visible 55 miles from ground zero. It was the second largest detonation of the current series and the first shot at Frenchman Flat since the firing of the atomic cannon there in 1953. Equipment tested ranged from jeeps trucks and clothing to fortifications and three test surfaces about the size of an Air Force landing strip. No troops took part.
