A dance given under the sponsorship of Radio Station WLLE and promoted by James Henry Dulaney , at the Ra leigh Memorial Auditorium, Monday night, caused the arrest of Allen B. J. Smith and James D. (Pat) Patterson. Investigating officers are working on the theory that a number of tickets were print ed and sold for the dance that were not controlled by the promoters. Working on that theory and on a warrant signed by William Henry Jackson, they arrested Patterson Tues day night and the records show that he was placed under a SIOO.OO bond for his appearance In court. Allen B. J. Smith was also arrested in connection with the sale of the questionable tickets and is also under bond. He was still being sought by officers Wednesday for further questioning. The CAROLINIAN made several futile efforts to locate him. The officers are working on the informa tion that Smith operated on Hargett St. Satur day in front of Patterson’s Record Shop, both as a photographer and an agent for the sale of Jfc f)iS 1 ' || i|'|f M" j|% k" Ij ' i fe^B §fe 1§ 11 11 ai V H ii .5 Ar Jf ! %iß 1!

Kunstler, attorney for the violence preaching Rap Brown, reversed his clients philosophy here Tuesday and told a hearing, on whether the black power advocate should be extradited to Maryland, that should Brown be sent back to Cambridge, Md., he would be risking physical bodily harm and that there was a possibili ty that he would legally be lynched. Maryland’s attorney General, Francis Burch, styled the law yers argument as “scurrilous’’ and said there were no il legal overtones to Brown’s ar rest. Assistant Attorney General, Reno S. Happ, Hi, will weigh the evidence arid then recom mend to Governor Mills E. God win whether to surrender Brc to the Maryland court, Whereh is charged with incitement to riot and arson. He was indicted by the Dor chester County, Md., Grand ju ry after he was accused of be ing chiefly responsible for a July 24 riot, in which Negro businesses and a Negro school were burned, Brown had delivered an ad dress just before the riot. The Chairman of the Student Non- Violent Coordinating Commit tee was not present at the Ex tradition hearing before. Asst, Atty. Gen. RenoS.

In a special interview with the CAROLINIAN Patterson said that Smith came to his place J Saturday and said that he was representing WLLE and that tickets sales, for the dance, were going slow and he would like to sell ! some tickets there, due to the fact that it was a good place to sell them, I Patterson alleges that he told Smith that he did not sell tickets for WLLE, but if he wanted . to sell some, on the out side, he had no objection. Patterson further stated that Smith began to ply his trade and sold quite a few outside. He said that Smith at no time told him the tickets were "hot.” Patterson stated that toward the end of the day Smith came to him and said that he had only 10 tickets left and that he was expecting some people to come there looking for them. Patterson alleges that he told Smith he would give the people the tickets and turn the money over, when he returned. Smith, according to Patterson, left the Record Shop to go to Radio Station WLLE. Smith returned and Patterson alleges that he gave the money for the tickets and that was all he had to do with the tickets. I tilt- K*rKWT *» & MINISTER ENROUTE TO JAIL - Milwaukee; Rev.

That was the prediction of Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R.-N. Y.) who noted that Chief Justice Earl Warren, Justices Hugo L. Black, Bryon R. White ami oth ers had followed judicial philo sophies different from what had been generally expected before they became justices. It was said that Marshall would assure an activist, liberal majority on the Supreme court. This was seen in view of his past record as NAACP lawyer, when he successfully argued the 1954 school desegregation case before the court. Still hurting from that deci sion, Senators from the South Lambe and it was good for $25. John Kay, Sr., picked up 2592 at G. S.

Wife Held In Mate’s Stabbing WILSON - Mrs. Lula Mae Joyner, 32, of Rt. 2, waived preliminary hearing in Wilson's Recorder’s Court Tuesday and was bound over to Superior Court in the fatal stabbing of her husband Saturday night, without the privilege of bond. The woman was charged with having caused the death of her husband by stabbing him with a voted almost unanimously a gainst his confirmation. They called him a “ constitutional iconoclast’’ and charged that his addition to the Supreme Court would tilt the court even more in favor of criminal de fendants at the expense of the ! public good. In answer to these charges, Sen. Javits said Marshall should be given a chance to take his stand, rather than being held accountable for the court’s past actions. As the nation’s attorney in the U.
