But the CCF said the boosts should be higher. About $75 is month instead of the proposed $55 would be closer to the minimum on which an old oge pensioner could live under present high liv- ing costs, CCF spokesmen said. Social Crediter F. D.

Sputnik Has Lost Beep

LONDON (AP) — Sputnik has osts its bee .

Scientists tracking the Sovia baby moon said it still is zipping th outer space right on course. But radio monitors said it no longer sends out its signals. Neither the beep nor the occa- sional whistle is heard now.

Apparently batteries powering the radio emisson have gone dead

"Tire Russana said the satel- llte's batteries would last for three weeks, and it in exactly three weeks to the said a scientist at the radio observatory at Cambrdge.

“The signals have lost intensity over the last week and were 100 times weaker Thursday night which probably means that the satellite will now be unobserved unless it Ls done by radar.

"Fomr our measurements it is coming down by about 311: kilom- fetres (just over two rules) a day lat its highest point or orbit.
