First Arrest Made Here
In GI Dividend Ferqery

Secret Service agents yesterday
brought to Municipal Court the
first person in this area charged
with forging a CT Insurance div
idend check.
Charged with the forgery was
James E. Austin, 81, colored, of
the 2200 block of Georgia avenue
NV. Agents said he was arrested
Thursday night when he tried to
cash a $165 refund check in a
liquor store at 1915 Seventh street
NV.
Austin presented a check made
out to Percy F. Grafton, of the
HOO block of First street NV,
agents said. He also Offered
Crafton's discharge papers. Joseph
R. Caplan, owner of the store, did
not think the description on the
papers matched Austin and called
police, agents said.
The Secret Service agents COM
mended Mr.. Caplan and called on
all District merchants to be as
vigilant in cashing the divided
checks.
Austin waived a preliminary
hearing, and was held under $500
bond for grand jury action by
Judge Almond w. Scott.

Agriculture Organization says Aus

Writ Orders Little
To Produce Boy, 4,
Taken From Home

Floyd Little, who, with his wife
Geraldine figured in a stormy Gus
tody battle over a 3-year-old boy
three months ago, was under a
District Court order today to pro-
duce another boy, 4, whom he
has been accused. of "abducting'
from the Industrial Home School.
In petition for a habeas cor
pus writ filed yesterday, John w
Tramburg, director of public well
fare. asked that Mr.. Little be re-
quired to produce David Gregory
Hudson, also known as David
Gregory Little" who once lived
with the Littles.
Mr.. Tramburg, through AS
sistant Corporation Counsel Ralph
D. Quinter, jr.. asserted the Dis
trict has information that Mr..
Little abducted" the boy from
the school annex last October 80.
Hearing Set January 81.
Judge Richmond B. Keech
signed the writ requiring Mr.. Lit
tie to bring the boy into court
on January 81. At that time, a
hearing will be held to determine
whether the Welfare Board or the
Little family should have custody
of David.
The board claims custody or
this basis:
Last October 4 Mrs. Little ap-
peared at the Child Welfare Di-
vision, 462 Indiana avenue NV.
with her daughter Edith, IS, ano
David, according to the petition
Mrs. Little abandoned" both
children there, it was said.
Observers recalled that the day
before Judge T. Alan Goldsbor-
ough had awarded Jonathan Mil
Ter, 3, to the child's real mother
Mrs. Mary Miller, of Landover
Md. This action eliminated q
prolonged court battle, during
which the Littles. claimed Jona-
than properly belonged in their
custody.
In denying their claim Judge
Goldsborough ruled the Littles
were unfit as parents. 1t was
believed that, because of the
judges decision, Mrs. Little be-
came angered and took both
Edith and David to the Welfare
Division the next day.
Board Took Children.
Mr.. Tramburg said in the petit
tion that the board Immediately
assumed responsibility for both
children. They were sent to the
annex Of the Industrial Home
School, from which David disap-
peared on October 80.
Mr.. Little has no right to David,
according to the petition, because
the child's natural mother signed
request November 4, asking the
board to provide for him and
place him for adoption.
David's mother was identified
In the petition as Mrs. Mary
Hudson of the $500 block of
Branch avenue, which is just over
the District line in Maryland.
No explanation appeared as to
why David was turned over to the
Littles by Mrs. Hudson in the first
place. Nor did the board try to
explain why Mr.. Little took the
boy back as alleged.
Mr.. and Mrs. Little live in the
1900 block of Tenth street NV.

The "Going-0ver"

Before he had thrown a ball in
big-league game, and while Bar
ney Shotton was saying that he
was not only lazy, but also tenn
permental, Branch Hickey hung a
cool $500000 price tag on him. Don
Newcombe, the Brooklyn Dodger
pitching ace tells in the current

almost didn't happen at all.
In the Spring of AZ, the year
they brought Jackie Robinson up.
Don was sent back home after
the training season to gain some
weight. He had already had one
year in the Brooklyn organization
with Nashua in the New England
League, where he won IA and lost
four Don owed the club a few
hundred dollars that he had Dor
rowcd from them and he went 10
see Branch Hickey to let him know
mat he was worrying about pay
ing 1t back.
Before NeWcombe got much Of a
chance to say anything. Hickey ac-
cused him Of not wanting to 90
back to Nashua, and told Don he
could pick ur his release right
then Taken back. Dan said he'd
do anything Branch Ricky wanted
MIN to do. Hickey replied 60 a.
head Don almost went too, but
at the last moment he decided TO
make sure that Branch had really
understood what he was trying to
say.
When Hickey did realize that
Newcombe wasn't complaining. but
merely trying to keep the record
straight, he sat uoWn with Don
and talked things over. They had
no trouble reaching an under
standing, and it was shortly there
after, Sport reports, that Hickey
