Fine for Moonlight

Dr. John Lyman of the University of California's biotechnology lab models the latest thing in suits for a moon explorer. The designer, Allyn B. Hazard, figures an astronaut wearing it could explore the moon's surface for days without returning to his space ship. A hose attached to the front would bring in heat, air and electricity for lights and instruments. Lyman holds a yardstick which could be used for survey work. UCLA scientists will test the suit - but not on the moon. (AP wirephoto.)
