Four men and woman. two of
whom have long police records
here, were captured at roadblock
near Charlotte Hall, Md, early
today after a $4,000 safe robbery
in st. Marys County.
Police say they may be respon-
sible for numerous safe cracking
jobs here and in Southern Mary
land.
The five were described as the
"Byars- -Wickline gang" after the
two who have the longest police
records. They were captured
by police on Route 5.
Long Police Records Disclosed.
John Pershing Byars. about 81.
ex-convict. whose Washington po-

1947; Martin Freedman. formerly
Of Baltimore who worked at a Tall
Timbers tavern across the road
from the scene Of the safe rob-
berry; Charles G. Bafford and his
wife Louise, both of Baltimore.
Inspector Robert S. Bryant,
chief of detectives here. said Byars
and Wickline have been in jail on
several occasions for safe rob-
berries. Prince Georges County
detectives are investigating to see
if unsolved safe-cracking jobs
there can be connected to the
gang. They described Byars and
Wickline as "the smoothest tsafe)
operators on the East coast"
$4,000 Cash Recovered.
Police say the gang is believed
to have stolen two cars at Leon
ardtown. Md, and at Tall Tim
bers, and to have broken into the

ers, at the latter community early
yesterday morning. The safe con-
tanned $4,295 in cash and checks,
and more than $4,000 in cash was
recovered when the five were cap
tured, police said.
Maryland State police also an
nounced the theft of $4,000 from
the -four milling firm Of F. Yo-

Republicans today turned to-
ward the West for new national
chairman after Representative

of the Senate and also a Ne

seriously considered.
Other "possibilities" from, the
Midwest were Arthur E. Summer
field of Michigan and Harry Darby
Of Kansas. both members of the
National Committee, and Vernon
Romney, Republican State chair
man of Utah. Mr.. Darby was
reported in some quarters as
unwilling to accept. He would
have strong backing among the
committee members. however. If
he could be prevailed on to con-
slider the Craftsmanship.
Mr.. SCOTS announcement came
as surprise to many. in view OF
the statement he made few days
ago that he would resign only
when it appeared certain that a
suitable successor had been agreed
on. However, 1t is understood
that Mr.. Scott firmly believes that
the forces in the committee who
have backed him will be able to
get together with other elements
in the committee to pick new
chairman under whom all may
work in harmony.
Creager Back in Town. -
A series Of conferences on the
chairman is already under way.

Pool o|Segregation|ssue
Left Pending in Krug' S
Approval Of Bylaws
Bourd Chuirmon Coils
Meeting to Complete
Action on Rule Changes

Secretary of the Interior Krug
today notified the District Recrea-
ton Board of his approval of pro-
posed changes in the boards by
laws in anticipation of the board s
taking over Interiors playground
facilities here.
The agreement. however. leaves
to later negotiations the question
whether the board may operate
the six Interior swimming pools on
a segregated basis If it takes them
over. It was a dispute over segre-
cation at the swimming pools. a
dispute marked by police interven-
ton, that led to the Interior De-
partment's decision to turn the
operation Of all playground facili-
ties here over to the Recreation
Board. It had long been at odds
with the board over the segrega-
ton issues.
Harry S. Wender, chairman Of
the Recreation Board, called a
meeting of board members for
$3.50 am. tomorrow to complete
action on the bylaws change.
Gradual Abolition Pledged.
The bylaws, as changed, would
contain no reference to a policy
of segregation. New bylaws the
board members will be asked to
approve include these three Sec
tionS under the heading Policy:
Section /. All matters of pol
icy shall be determined by the
Board.
Section 2. The board will make
every possible and realistic effort
toward the removal of racial seq
regation in public recreation in
such sequence and at such rate of
progression as may be consistent
with the public interest, public
order and effective administration.
The board by majority vote of the
whole board at a stated meeting
shall from time to time issue nee
essary orders to the superintend-
ent to implement this policy.
Section 3. The operation and
administration Of all activities,
programs and services under the
control Of the board, except as
herein after provided, shall be
directed by majority vote Of the
whole board at a stated meeting y
Krug Agrees.
These three sections were agreed
on by the bylaws committee of
the Recreation Board at a meet
ing last Wednesday. Secretary
Krug said they appear consistent
with an agreement reached at a
conference, July II, attended by
Interior officials, the District
Commissioners and Recreation
Board representatives.
Mr.. Krug went on to say that as
soon as the board has adopted
these proposed changes. meetings
can be held between the board
and National Park Service repre-
sentatives. At such meetings
agreements would be negotiated
for transfer of the recreation facil-
tiles.
