Fed up with CIA talk over India's crisis says Saxbe

Lightning delays Viking Mars rocket countdown at Cape
Lightning forced engineers to clear the Titan Centaur rocket launch pad twice while replacing a faulty steering valve delaying the Viking mission to Mars. The valve, found Monday, will be sent to Sunnyvale for analysis to prevent a repeat of the malfunction. The launch now targets Thursday with a plan to land July 4, 1976, and another Viking mission remains set for August 21.
