TUESDAY AFTERNOON, JULY 28. 1959 FIVE CENTS PER COPY NO. 164 ■ I Gins in one School, Boys in Another Governor Faubus Wants Sex-By-Sex Integration LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UPI1 — Gov. Orval E. Faubus offered a solution today for the “peaceful integration” of the troubled Little Rock public schools. He suggested the voluntary racl. &• integration of Horace Mann Ne gro high school, and Hall High, in the elite residential section of the city, but that they be segregated by sex. Central High School, integrated under federal troops in 1957, and kept closed last year by the gov ernor, would remain restricted to white boys and girls. It is the largest of the three. Faubus said he had offered his plan to the Little Rock School Board for its consideration. Faubus said under his suggested plan, boys would attend one school and girls the other. “This would take care of any moral problems which might arise,” Faubus said. It was immaterial to him which school was assigned to boys and which assigned to girls. By keeping boys in one integra ted school and girls in the other, Faubus said there would be no need for police protection because “no one would be forced into at tending integrated schools.” In a prepared statement the gov ernor read at a news conference, Faubus said parents of both white (Continued on Pore Two) West Working On Compromise To End Deadlock GENEVA OJPI) — The West is working on a compromise plan to save the deadlocked foreign min isters’ talks by offering Russia a proposal to keep the Berlin situa tion as it is until Christmas 1961, conference sources reported to day.

At the end of 2% years—that is, around Christmas 1961 — the Big Four foreign ministers should meet again to reconsider the Ber lin situation. The new plan would mean put ting the Berlin issue on ice at least until after the I960 U.S. presiden tial election, the British parlia mentary election which must be held before May 1960, and the West German parliamentary elec tion scheduled for the fall of 1961.

From now on you can pay your parking tickets, or swear out a warrant against your mate, in style. A $3000 modernization job at city hall has provided bright but soft illumination, a handsomely glassed-in radio headquarters— even air-conditioning. For Chief Alton Cobb, head of the police department here since May 8, 1952, a neat new office has been provided. Louise Lee, the clerk of Dunn Recorder’s Court, is moving down from upstair* where her records will be conveniently close to the actual police operations. Truth is, the old police station was a little shabby and it was also located so far back in the city hall you had to traipse through the fire station, or up an alley, to get in. To many a drunk—some of To Attract Farmers Market Promoters Lay Plans Broughton Replies To Hiway Critics RALEIGH (UPI) — Chairman J. Melville Broughton Jr. of the State Highway Commission struck back at criieism of the commis sion in a speech to a civic club In suburban Millbrook Monday night. Broughton told the Millbrook Lions Club that there was no truth to a suggestion by State Sen. John Jordan of Wake County that the scheduled retirements Oct. 1 of 77 key highway person nel were ‘‘politically inspired." He said that ‘‘members of the State Highway Commission did aot even know the names of the replacements until they were se lected because the statute vests that authority in the director and his staff.” Jordan had suggested in a recent speech that the re placements might have been made on a political basis. "We resent and repudiate the statement that retirements were for political purposes and con gratulate those who will be pro moted to new positions of trust on their history with the commis sion,” Broughton said, adding that “all appointments were from within the ranks.” Broughton, defending *ie com mission's record since its reor (CwtluM Ol Page Two) The big season ot crop marKet ing is about to twinkle in and local business and agricultural leaders are laying plans for offer ing farmers of this area a healthy, thriving market.

What we’re trying to get over now is this unity idea—I think the town needs a little of this unity preached to them.” The committee unified fast on the idea of holding special big-gift giveaways in connection with the opening of the tobacco market. That means when the two big leaf warehouses open here, farmers who market their tobacco in Dunn will receive chances on a series of prizes—a hale of cotton, a refrig (Continued on Page Two) whom love to go to the police station as soon as they get a load on—such a route posed many an obstacles.

JealousLayPreacher Awaiting Sentence GREENSBORO (UPI • — Sen tence was expected to be passed in Guilford Superior Court today in a case involving two Indians, a lady boarding house operator, a long knife, a set of brass knuckles and a bumper jack. Elwood E. Jones, 55, of Greens boro, pleaded guilty Monday to a charge of second degree burglary, lie originally was charged with first degree burglary, a capital offense, after breaking into the room of Henry Revels, also an Indian, and battering Revels un conscious with the jack. Revels testified he did not re member what happened on the night of the attack in May. He told the judge, “I did a hard day’s work that day. Then I went to bed at 8 o’clock and woke up two months later.” Investigating officers said Jones told them he was jealous of Mrs. Naomi Ellison, the hefty operator of the boarding house where Rev els roomed. Mrs. Ellison testified she once was in love with Jones, who for merly roomed at her home but went away mad in February. ‘‘But I wouldn’t have him now if he was lined with gold,” she said. She said Jones came by May 6 and accused her of having an affair with Revels and threatened to kill him if he could find him. She said Jones, a former lay preacher, was aimed with the bumper jack, a long knife and a set of brash knuckles.

(UPU — Vice President Richard M Nixon received the warmest re, ception yet of his "peace and friendship" tour of the Soviet Union when' he arrived in thi; Siberian industrial city today. A crowd of 20.000 cheering per sons jammed the airport when tin airliner carrying Nixon and hit party landed here this afternoor following a one.stop flight fron Leningrad. Hundreds of others lined th< stieets from the airport to th< center of the city to wave at th< cars and buses bringing member of the party into town. The vice preside^ acknowl edged the warmth of his greetin' by telling the throngs in thi “Chicago of Siberia," 1.750 mile east of Moscow, that he was hen "so that we can km>w each oth er better and bring the peace am friendship that all of us want,’’ “I want to express my appre ciution for your warm welcome and to extend on behalf of all th people of th0 United States nit best wishes to the peoples of thi city and to the great territorie of Siberia." Nixon said in repl; to welcoming speeches. “This is a clo ed city, and 1 an sure you will agree with me tha all cities should he open on botl sides.” This was an apparent reference to the fact that few outsiders an permitted to visit this great in dustrial metropolis of western Si. beria. Nixon’s arrival coincided wit! the end of the day shift in this manufacturing city of 800.000 per sons. This fact may have ex. plained the size of the crowds although there was no question o the warmth of the reception. Streets along the route from tin airport to the city's center wen so packed with people that a times it was difficult for the m" torcade to get through.

Convlc ■ tion on the charges would mean revocation of his California teach, er's certificate. Three blushing 17_year.old girls i testified at the start of the hear ing Monday that they thought ■ (plosions asked by Cook in hh physiology course were ‘‘disgust, ing, outrageous and of little value.’ The class was comprised of about 30 boys i ltd girls, aged 15 to 17 One of the girls said she was i "too embarrassed” to answer qu. estions before the crowd of specta. - tors which jammed the hearing The room was cleared before she was asked to continue testimony.

"never" and "more than on_ ee.” Patricia Mather one of the co_ eds who testified, said replies to the survey were anonymous and voluntary, but that Cook wrote the results on a blackboard in front of the class. "Kissing was 100 per cent," she said. But when the replies touched on more intimate relations “some of the kids started laughing.” She testified Cook spoke of the matter "in a dignified manner, ond there was nothing obscene «r vile about his manner or conduct ing the survey."
