Intelsat 4 satellite launched from Cape Kennedy
A large new communications satellite, Intelsat 4, was launched from Cape Kennedy on Sunday night into a high egg shaped orbit. The $29.5 million mission aims to add thousands of Trans Atlantic telephone circuits with the satellite to be moved into a stationary orbit above Ecuador before later shifting to mid Atlantic and Pacific positions. The craft will replace Intelsat 3 and support U S Great Britain France and Canada traffic. It also will aid Apollo tracking ships during 1972 missions. In a separate note Los Angeles authorities banned paper cones for cotton candy in parks requiring bread sticks to cut litter.
