Engineers Solve Last Minute Problems for Vanguard Satellite
At Cape Canaveral Florida engineers fixed a final fault in ground cooling gear by replacing a valve and worked to remove interference in the second stage of the three stage rocket. The team, including Grand Central Rocket Co. president Charles E. Bartley and Wilbur Hartzell, voiced confidence that the first two stages would perform and that the third stage would push the Vanguard satellite into orbit. The five foot long third stage, painted white, should be visible at dawn or dusk and the small satellite may only be detectable by its radio signal.

Heavy voting seen in state opts on beer in Oklahoma
Early returns from Oklahoma show heavy turnout in counties including Oklahoma City and Tulsa as voters decide whether to authorize county option on beer. The issue, tied to a statewide 3.2 beer law since 1933 and prohibition on hard liquor, could shift county controls if approved. Dry forces expect defeat of county option despite turnout, while wet voters hope for large city backing. Weather and farming activity in rural areas may affect participation.
