B52s Hit Enemy Force Only 35 Miles North of Saigon SAIGON. South Viet Nam (AP) The U.S. Air Force sent a flight of B52 bombers Thursday against a North Vietnamese a regiment spotted in the Zone jungle only 35 miles north of Saigon. Intelligence officers said it was the closest North Vietnamese regulars had been reported the capital. The B52s dropped their huge bomb loads only four miles ahead of thousands of U.S.

and Australian foot soldiers cutting through the brush with machetes and jungle knives. Operation Silver City on its 10th day slashed deeper into the old Communist stronghold, the Allied forces found 113 more bodlies, bringing the enemy toll in a four-hour battle Wednesday to 275 killed. An American source said two enemy wounded identified the troops as North Vietnamese reg ulars: One of them a Viet Cong -said that his battalion of 400 mei was 90 per cent North Vietnamese army regulars. In the skies over North Viet Nam, U.S. Air Force and pilots evaded some surface-to-lience.

air missiles and also spotted enemy planes they thought were Soviet designed MIG21s, advanced jets equal to some of to the best American planes. The MIGs fled without attacking. Action picked up elsewhere. The U.S. command reported to at its daily briefing: The U.S.

25th Infantry Division cracked into the Bao Trai area, 20 to 25 miles west of Saigon, in a sweep dubbed Operation Honolulu, after the jungle division's home base. Its aim is to clear the Viet Cong from the many waterways and underground networks in the sector. American Air Force planes joined U.

"It is really a Armstrong said when the docking was completed. But his elation was short lived. Mission directors at the control center in Houston, suddenly were jolted out of seats when tracking data indi-, cated the joined spaceships were rolling. "It took off in roll and yaw," Armstrong reported. This qoute was passed on to newsmen by Flight Director John Hodge, But he and other officials said they could not let reporters hear the full tape 1 because the tone of the voices and what the astronauts said might be misinterpreted.

"Until we know what the sequence of events are, we don't want to release the tape," said Operations Director Christopher C. Kraft. "Just because they said there was a problem with the No. 8 thruster does not mean this We want at the University of Alabama, decide what went wrong." Here's what the data now available indicates: Armstrong and Scott were preparing to make some maneuvers, using small Agena control jets to yaw the coupled craft. Purpose was to study resulting vibrations and their effect on the joined vehicles.

For some reason, there was a violent sideways movements, then the spaceships started to spin at a rate of about once every 10 seconds. During this period, Armstrong's heart rate pulsed up to 150 beats a minute and Scott's to 135. Both normally register in the 70s. Armstrong managed to control the craft sufficiently to disconnect and back away from the Agena, which carried about 4,000 pounds of potentially dangerous fuel. The Agena then stabilized, but the Gemini resumed its rolling motion and went out of control.

Armstrong was unable to operate his main engines to stop the motion. He activated: set of 16 thrusters that are normal-. ly used only, for and was able stabilize after wresre tling with the problem for 30 minutes. Gemini mission rules make it mandatory that the spacecraft return to earth as swiftly as possible once the re-entry jets are used. This is because continued use would deplete the fuel supply of the only system available for controlling the space ship during the vital reentry.

The trouble occurred during the fifth orbit, as Gemini was entering a series of global revolutions that would take it away from main recovery areas. Recovery officials decided that a landing in the Western Pacific during orbit No. 7 would offer the fastest recovery. Computers calculated the time to fire the retro-rockets, and Armstrong fired them without a hitch as Gemini 8 sailed high over Africa. Then began a suspenseful 32- minute period during which the astronauts made a fiery dash back through the atmosphere, skimming over Arabia, India and Red China.

There are no Gemini tracking stations within range of this path and thus no during the descent. Recovery forces steamed toward the landing zone 500 miles southeast of Okinawa. east, Air Force C54 rescue plane was ovsr the area when Gemini 8 floated down on its red and orange parachute splashdown at 10:23 p.m. or 12:23 p.m. local time, in calm seas.

Because of communications difficulties, it was an hour later before the world knew whether the astronauts were safe. The destroyer Mason picked up the astronauts at 12:30 a.m. CST. The capsule was retrieved a few minutes later. Armstrong and Scott were reported in good physical condition by a medical technician aboard the ship, 2 Sioux Falls Mrs.
