WASHINGTON (API—President
Eisenhower today asked a favor
of the man who will occupy the
White House from 1972 until 1976.
The favor: A possible appoint-
ment to the U.S. Air Force Acad-
emy for the son of Capt. Iven C.
Kincheloe Jr. killed last July
while testing an experimental
E104 near Edmonds Air Force
Base in California.
Kincheloe was flying that more
nearly conventional plane during
an interval in his preparations to
pilot the X15 space-traveling air-
craft.
The request recalled a similar
gesture by President Franklin D.
Roosevelt, who proposed a West
Point appointment for the young
son of Capt. Colin P.. Kelly, who
was killed when his plane dived
into a Japanese warship early it
World War II.
The appointment is reserved for
young Kelly.
Eisenhower presented to Kin
cheloe's widow tod ay a letter on
behalf of Iven III, now' 19 Vi
months old.
Mrs. Kincheloe. an attractive
brunette from Oakland. Calif., got
one copy of the letter. A duplicate
was sent to the National Archives
for filing.
Eisenhow’er told his unknown
successor in the letter that the
death of Kincheloe, a Korean Wai
veteran credited with downing
five Communist planes, “brough'
a real sense of loss to our nation.”
Kincheloe, who was 30 at the
time of his death July 26, also is
survived by a 6-month-oid daugh-
ter, Jeannine.
Kincheloe had been selected
shortly before his death to pilo'
the X15.
On Sept. 7. 1956, he had flown
the X2, forerunner of the X15, to
| an altitude of 126.000 feet. That is
the highest man has ever flown.
The White House said Roose-
velt’s letter relating to Colin Kelly
in ‘‘will of course be honored” if
young Kelly decides he would like
to enter a srvice academy.
Press secretary James C. Hag-
erty said the youth who was 17
last spring -has shown interest in
West Point but has not let the
White House know his final deci-
sion.
Hagerty said that Kelly would be
nominated for the Air Force Acad-
emy, rather than West Point, if
he prefers.
