Senator Albert Gore made public his order for a congressional investigation into whether NASA Administrator Dr. James C. Fletcher had violated conflict-of-interest rules when he awarded Morton Thiokol the Shuttle booster contract in 1973. Dr. Fletcher denied the charges, but said he would seriously consider removing himself from future booster rocket con-tract decisions. (NY Times, Dec 19/86)
