I agree.SKELTON MEETS ASTRONAUTS ?╟÷ Six of America?╟╓s astronauts, m os t of whom have already orbited in space, have been staying at the Sands Hotel dur- ing a brief break in their training schedule. Following the Red Skelton show, the six went backstage to compliment Skelton on his ?╟úastronaut?╟Ñ pantomime, where the Skelton family turned the tables and insisted on autographs of their guests. Pictured backstage are, from left, David Scott, James McDavitt, Ed- ward White, (who walked in space), Roger Chaffee, Art Coleman, a friend of the Skelton?╟╓s, Valentina Skelton, Red Skelton, his wife, Georgia, Virgil (Gus) Grissom and Russell Schweikart.
