GREENSBORO, April 19, The
Government rested its case in a
very slow-moving and on the
whole uninteresting session of the
trial of Junius Scales, charged
with violation of the Smith Act,
today.
Charles Childs, junior from
High Point, and witness for the
(FBI in the case, was examined
during the morning, but in the
afternoon session was asked only
three questions. Two were put to
him by Scales' attorney, a short
dark, man with a New York ac
cent: What draft board was Childs
registered with?; and another
question involving an economics
course Childs had once taken.
The prosecuting attorney for
the Government asked Childs on
ly one question: What were
Childs' recent activities in the
Communist Party? To .which
Childs answered that he had been
a member of the ' Chapel Hill
Communist Club' until it broke
up, and after that he had been in
contact with two men known to
, be very active in the Party. Chilrl
was then permitted to stand
f?own. ....
It was noticeable that very few
people in the courtroom showed
any signs of excitement. The spec-
tators filled the available space
but were quite calm. Childs was
a relaxed witness, and Scales
himself seemed singularly unper
turbed. The jury, consisting of 13
men and 3 women, sat back in
their chairs and appeared unaf
fected by the proceedings, as did
the judge and the prosecuting at
torneys, though the latter from
time to time interjected objec
tions to their opponent's defense,
most of which were sustained.
Only Scales' attorney, the short
dark man from New York, seem
ed tense and a bit worried. .

With Cell Sunday
GREENSBORO, April ig A Communist Party cell is still
in existence in Durham, a 24-year-old FBI undercover agent
at the University ot North Carolina told the Junius Scales
trial in Federal Court. here today.
Chi les B. Childs, who volunteered to join the Communist
undercover
agent
while still at Carolina, said that
he had made "contact" with the
cell two days ago.
The next day Monday he was
called to the stand here as a sur
prise government witness against
Scales.
Childs did not go into the scope
or activities of the Communist
cell in Durham. .
In other dramatic developments
today, Childs also told of attend
ing an all-day meeting with
Scales, a confessed Communist,
and other party members in a
Duke forest picnic area near Dur
ham three years ago.
Childs said the meeting was
held in October of 1952 and serv
ed as a "reunion" for those who
attended a secret Communist
Party School the month before
near Winston-Salem.
Childs said Scales and his wife,
Gladys, were' on hand for the ses
sion. Childs also identified others
who gathered in picnic area No.

only to him as "Blanche."
He quoted "Blanche" as saying
she "had gotten into some sort of
trouble about distributing leaf-
j jets" of
some . type in Durham.
Childs said he was unable to give
her real name.
Jerry Van Camp was identified
by Childs yesterday as a Commu
nist. Childs said yesterday also

Scales
Takes
His Turn
GREENSBORO, April 19 T
After calling only three witnesses
the government unexpectedly
rested its case against accused
Communist leader Junius Scales
today.
This took the defense by sur
prise. So much so that Scales'
lawyer, David Rein, asked the
court for a delay until tomorrow
before beginning his presentation.
Judge Albert V. Bryan gave him
15 minutes.
Rein said he was not prepared
to call his witnesses. He did not
say how many there would be
or where they lived. Scales was
seen filling out three or four
subpoenas to be served by the
U. S. Marshal today.
Shortly after the halfway point
in the seventh day of the Federal
Court trial, District Atty. Edwin
M. Stanley took Charles B. Childs
off the witness stand. Stanley then
said he had completed the case
against the red-haired 35-ycar-old
defendant.
Childs, 24, a physics student
at the University of North Caro
lina, had testified that his last
contact with the Communist
Party as an FBI undercover in
formant came last Sunday. He
said he paid his party dues at
Durham to Bill Evans. He identi
fied Evans as business manager
of the Carolinas district.
Rein, after a rather perfunctory
crossexamination of Childs, read
to the jury from several pieces
of Communist literature intro
duced as defense evidence. The
leadings were intended to sup
port the defense position that the
party docs not advocate force and
violence. Then Rein announced
that he had nothing further un
til he called his first witness.
Court was adjourned.
Parity Raid!
An estimated 500 frolicking
students had gotten the first
panty-raid of the season off to
a start as The Daily Tar Heel
went to press last night.
According to an 11 o'clock
telephone call from correspon
dent Jack Weasel, a "lone cop"
and Assistent Dean of Student
Affairs Ray Jeffries had ap
peared on the scene.
The raiders, having gotten
a single pair of panties from
3rd floor Kenan, allegedly had
broken a lock on a Carr Dorm
door.

in West Bengal, Tennyson became
acquainted with Gandhi.
Tennyson's other occupation lies
in the literary field, following the
family tradition. While in school
he wrote plays and short stories,
and has continued his writing
through the years, his most prom

tween Asia and the West, "Tito
Lifts the Curtain" and "Saint on

At present Tennyson is writing
a novel about India, in addition
to frequent articles for The Man

Statesman and other publications.
He has appeared frequently on
BBC and has done TV and film
work.
