its history, which was graduated

Both have been pages-and stu
dents at the Page School-since
they were in the fifth grade. No
one else has attended the school
so long, and since the Page School
came under the District Board of
Education three years ago, no
other pages have been accepted
unless they are above grade school
level.
They are William H. Bassett. 10,
of Mobile, Ala, and John c. Ira
cey. 18, of Silver Spring. Md. both
of whom think the Page School
is fine" For both, next fall will
mean the end of their paging days

eight years on the Hill has been
page to Representative Boykin,
Democrat, of Alabama, intends to
enter the University Of Alabama

Maher Can't Attend,
So Barrett Calls Off
Talks on Richitt Case

Police Supt. Robert j. Barrett
called a meeting of his inspectors
for today to discuss the case OF
Capt. Anthony Richitt, and ther
Cancelled the meeting before il
took place.
His reason: Special Assistant
Corporation Counsel Daniel B
M&her called him two hours be.
fore the meeting to say he couldn't
attend.
Mr.. Maher made the inquiry
that ended with his reporting tt
the Commissioners that the evil
dence supports charges against
Capt. Richitt of insubordination
neglect of duty, conduct unbecom-
ing an officer and conduct preju-
dicial to the reputation of the
force.
At the time the report was re-
leased June i, Maj. Barrett ex-
pressed doubt of the wisdom of
trial board action, but said he
would seek advice from his in
spectors. That was the idea of
today'S Cancelled meeting.
Maj. Barrett said he had asked
the Commissioners if Mr.. Maher
could present the case to the in
Spectors, and that he was given
their approval. He said now he
will talk to the Commissioners
again and request that if Mr..
Maher can't attend, another assis-
tant corporation counsel be pro-
vided to present the charges.

Send q Kid to Comp
Recreation Could Do Wonders
For Girl, TO- Deserted by Mother

Since she was deserted by hel
mother, Pat, 10, has become q
silent, unsmiling little girl.
She seldom leaves the small
house she lives in with her grand
mother. several cousins and q
brother.
Two years ago. Pat and Ken
neth's mother let them out of q
cab in snowstorm. She left them
sobbing and pounding on their
grandmother's door. The mother
told her children she didn't want
them.
Pat forms a quiet contrast to
the rest of the youngsters who
laugh. chatter and tease one
another. Old for her few years,
this girl realizes full well what it
means to have a mother who
doesn't love her.
There is little opportunity for
Pat to meet and play with other
children. Constantly worried over
her charges. grandmother herds
them up to bed as soon as dinner
is over, the dishes washed.
The lonely child, who has set up
barriers between herself and
others, admits: II haven't many
friends" Her first sign of interest
in making them came recently
when she told her grandmother,
II would like to go to a camp"
Camp Would Help Her.
Certainly. two weeks of camp
life would do Pat a lot of good.
But her grandmother hasn't
money for this, and the little
Pats father sends from another
city doesn't last through a week.
For $35.76, perhaps you could
bring a smile to Pats face again
by sending her to Camp Good Will
for two weeks. For $17.88 you
could send her to the Virginia
camp for one week.

Church Firecracker
Leads 10 Mental Test

A mental examination was or
dered yesterday for a 26-year old
man, accused of disrupting q
church service Sunday night by
tossing in a flrecracker.
Municipal Court Judge Aubrey
B. Fennell ordered a Gallinger
Hospital examination for Hence
C. Giles, Of the 800 block Of Sixth
street S.W.
Giles was identified by Bruce
Marshall, colored, deacon Of
the Temple Church Of God and
Christ, Sixth and H streets S.W.,
as the man who tossed a lighted
flrecracker into the church Just
after services got underway. The
firecracker, Mr.. Marshall added,
struck him on the back Of the
neck.
The Rev. Samuel Kelsey, COLI
ored, pastor of the church. said
there was considerable confusion
after the flrecracker exploded but
that the service continued as
planned. Several Of the deacons
and ushers. however, took OF
after Giles and caught him q
block away.
Judge Fennell found Giles guilty
of setting of a firecracker and
disturbing a religious service. He
rejected plea by Defense Attor.
ney Thomas David that no evi-
dence had been introduced to
show the service had been dis
turbed.
When a flrecracker is thrown
in a church and bounces OF the
head Of a deacon, think that's
