Unfair as il may be. he will
be watched much more closely

official in a similar post.
Observers believe that he Is
ideally suited TO occupy the

the Howard faculty he went 10

he occupied the post OF asso-

He had not been assigned to

Marshall Leaves Today For UN

WASHINGTON, Sept. II -

Marshall completed a Today
briefing on world problems to-
day and prepared to leave at
5 am. EDIT, tomorrow for New

Nations battles with Soviet Vice
Foreign Minister Andrei 1. Wis

Bullying large in his briefcase
will be the United States plan
to get the UN General Assem-
bly-over Russian opposition -
to create a "border watch"
commission in Greece.
The United States, thwarted
in it's efforts to get the Security
Council to do something about
the threat to Greece by three
Soviet vetoes, has placed the
Greek situation on the Assem-
bly, agenda. Efforts are under
way in the Security Council to
get the case removed from its
agenda so that the Assembly
will be free to make recon-
mendations.
Marshall's advisers say the
secretary's opening address to
the assembly next Wednesday
will be a major announcement.
They say it will:

Cherry Refuses Reinstatement
Governor Brushes
Patrolmen "0ff"
Delegation OF 70 Person.
Get Positive Statement
From Executive

RALEIGH, Sept. II. - up -
Governor Cherry, following 4
hearing by over 10 persons, to-
day refused to reinstate three
former State Highway Patrol
men who resigned last month
following charges of beating a
recaptured prisoner.
The former patrolmen are c.
L. league, John Wilson and Ar
thur Fields.
A delegation of friends, law
enforcement officers, and some
members of the General Assem-
bly, personally petitioned the
governor for the reinstatement
of the men, and cited the records
and character of the ex-patrol-
men.
The three resigned following
of cruel beating of Claude
Gregory, Cleveland county man
who is a prisoner of the Halifax
county camp. The beating alleg-
eddy occurred August %.
Gregory, who is serving from
five to six years for breaking
and entering, escaped from the
camp on August 81, but was
recaptured the following day. He
is alleged to have been beaten
by saplings and a highway patrol
cartridge belt upon his recap
ture near Littleton.
Governor Positive
Governor Cherry was positive
in his stand.
II have a duty to perform,
Just as some of you law enforce
ment officers" the governor
said. However, in no event can
these men be reinstated, or sent
back to their former divisions
in which they served.
IT promise you that I will do
what I can to obtain employment
for these men. I have been told
they had fine records prior to
the beating incident, and I am
aware Of the circumstances
which must have precipitated
it.
However, we have laws in
North Carolina against whipping
of prisoners. They cannot be
beaten without the express order
