{description}   Harold O'Connor, manager of the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge,
                watches a 10-foot-long alligator inch its way toward a busy
                highway at the Kennedy Space Center. O'Connor, aided by assistant
                Jerome Carroll, not shown, guided the large gator to safety in a
                nearby pond, several miles south of the Vehicle Assembly
                Building, in background. The Apollo 12 astronauts will be
                launched no earlier than November 14, 1969, from the Kennedy
                Space Center on the Nation's second manned lunar landing mission.
