PERMISSION TO
SPEAK IN SCHOOL
Rule in Baltimore County Forbids
Address to Students On Con-
troversial Subjects

BALTIMORE. Md. Nov 6.-Rep-
resentative William D. Upshaw, of
Georgia, was refused admittance to
the Towson High School in Balti-
more County, when he went there
to deliver an address to the students,
it became known Thursday.
1t was explained by John O.
Herschner, assistant superintendent,
of schools for Baltimore County, that
a ruling of the Baltimore County
school board forbade addresses on
controversial subjects in the county
schools, and that because Mr.. Up
shaw had not announced his subject
before going to the school it became
necessary for the principal, Arthur
c. Cromer, to refuse him admit
tance.
Mr.. Upshaw went to the high
school with Rev. Mark Depp, pas
tor of the Towson Methodist Epis-
copal Church, who had requested
that Mr.. Upshaw be allowed to speak
1t developed today that Mr.. Upshaw
address was to have borne the title,
Pluck and Purpose. The Georgia
congressman characterized the Incl
dent as attempt to muzzle" him,
and in a later speech lat Rev. DR..
Depp's church, said the refusal to al
low him to speak at the sch2n '')3r-
dered on the laws of the dark ages.
