Apollo 8’s satellite fell intact as Saturn V carried the crewed module, prompting President Johnson to praise the Space program and set a late 1968 target for the next test launch.

Youth Granted Court Permission to Buy Car
An 18 year old Canberra youth, Robert Wille Downer, won court approval to purchase a car after a 1961 knee injury at Canberra Railway Station. The ACT Supreme Court ordered funds from the court to be used for the purchase, contingent on him obtaining a driving licence and meeting earlier conditions. Damages had been awarded in 1962 and later rolled into the court credit, totaling about $6,000 after medical and other expenses. The applicant, employed as a sorter at the Mint, had previously been denied in 1966, but the new order allows payment out of court for the auto purchase.
