The official Soviet news agency Tass said Progress 6, carrying an es timated 2.5 tons of supplies, docked with Salyut 6 at 2:19 a.m. EDT. The docking came just over 48 hours after the robot cargo capsule was launched from the Soviet Cen tral Asian cosmodrome at Baikonur. The Progress 6 was carrying an estimated ton of rocket and jet fuel for the space lab engines and a ton and a half of food, water and oxygen regeneration equipment. Also aboard was a tulip bulb that was expected to bloom shortly and decorate the dinner table for cos monauts Vladimir Lyakhov and Val ery Ryumin, who have been in space since Feb. 25. The tulip was part of a series of biological experiments, but Soviet ground controllers said it is one item the two cosmonauts have been anx ious to receive. The capsule also was expected to restock the lab in preparation for the launch of another set of cosmonauts about May 25.

Last month, the Soviets launched Soyuz 33, with a Soviet and a Bulga rian cosmonaut board, but the spaceship failed to dock with the space station and returned to Earth 48 hours after liftoff. As is customary on such flights, the Progress 6 capsule is taking let ters, newspapers and packages from Earth to the Salyut 6 cosmonauts. The Progress capsules have played a major role in the Soviet Union s highly successful spacelab program.

Ray McLamore has been missing since he landed on a Colombian beach April 29 with Houston fire man William A. Spradley. McLamore telephoned Dale Everitt, chief of public information of the Houston fire department, at a hotel in Barranquilla where Everitt was staying until charges against Spradley of violating Colombian air space could be resolved. “He (McLamore) said he was in good shape but didn’t know whether he would live through the night,” Everitt said in a telephone inter view from the hotel. “McLamore told me he was being held by four Indians up in La Gua- jira who were asking $100,000 ran som,” Everitt said. “He said they had carried him down to some phone somewhere. They were in side (with him) at first and then stepped outside while he made the call.” Everitt said he was awaiting fur ther word from McLamore about details of the ransom demand. “Were quite convinced it was McLamore,” Everitt added. ‘T asked him some personal questions about his family that he was able to answer.” Everitt said the Sunday night conversation resolved doubts about the authenticity of a letter from McLamore handed to Houston Fire Chief V.E. Rogers at the hotel in Barranquilla Saturday night. In the letter, McLamore said: “I am safe and would like to turn my self in. I am afraid because the In dians said the (Colombian) Army would kill me if they found me. McLamore, 45, has been missing since he landed with Spradley in a small plane on the shores of La Gua- jira State, the center of Colombia’s illicit marijuana smuggling industry. Spradley is recovering from a gunshot wound under guard at a hospital in Riohacha, capital of la Guajira, 130 miles northeast of Bar ranquilla. He is being investigated for violation of Colombian air space. La Guajira Gov. Rafael I said he would rule Thun whether Spradley is innocentl violation.
