among the leaders: "No, no, no"
The main body Of the cold and
hungry convicts paid no attention
to them.
Even the leaders joined the
rush. They apparently feared
they might be identified If they
held out.
Fifty heavily armed State troop
ers marched into the midst Of
the prisoners soon after dawn.
The rioters fell back, shouting
profane abuse at the policemen.
The troopers stood in ranks and
took it for Is minutes then moved
in small groups to guard posts
around the edge of the exercise
yard.
They had been called in from
all over the State to augment the
80 guards. Moundsville is on the
Ohio River IL miles below Wheel

Fired Over Heads.
Guards on the 40-foot walls
fired over the heads of the pris-
oners, and no one was hurt when
about 200 rushed the boiler room
and commissary with knives and
broken scissors last night.
A few marched In front of the
administration building all night.
Most of them stretched out on the
cold, damp pavement. A few
huddled in blankets.
A three-man committee had
called on Warden Skeen earlier In
the day to complain about the
cook and to ask for more clothes.
The warden said he told them
the cook would be taken care Of"
AS to the shortage of clothing, he
said. Il admitted that was pos
sibly true, because we do not have
enough funds available for
clothes"
fetitiOn SmuggIed Out.
Two months ago a petition
signed by nine prisoners was
smuggled out of the penitentiary.
It complained of vile, corrupt
and unsanitary" conditions In the
prison.
The Wheeling Intelligencer sent
down a reporter who was per-
mitted to talk with the signers
and other prisoners.
The Intelligencer then ran a
series of articles on prison condi-
tions. summing up that improve
ment was needed in the food.

in sanitation.
It also related that prisoners
were punished by Handwriting
them to bar above their heads

West Virginia Prison
Revolt Ends Suddenly
On Promise Of Meal
BY The Assoeiaied Press

MOUNDSVILLE, w. Va, Oct
IA tense 18-hour revolt by
1900 inmates of West Virginia s
185-year-old State Penitentiary
ended today as dramatically as it
began.
Warden Orel J. Skeen broke the
stalemate at 9:45 am. with an
invitation to the mutineers to re-
turn to their cells and be fed. 1t
was accepted with enthusiasm.
The convicts were so hungry by
that time they were picking up
stray nuts which had been scat
tered about the yard for the squir-
Irels.
The vast exercise yard. where
the convictS had been turned back
by gunflre when they tried to
storm the powerhouse and the
comissary last night. was cleared
in a matter of 10 minutes.
Warden Skeen said it would be
around noon before food platters
would be ready. Most of the cooks
and kitchen personnel were among
1.-THE rioters.
Miss Morning Meal.
Not even the 400 convicts who
stayed in their cells and refused
to join the mutiny received a
morning meal. They set up an
awful din Of stamping and yelling
this morning when the breakfast
hour passed. This added to. the
general tension at the big prison.
v The penitentiary was built for
800 inmates. Yesterdays official
count was 1.761.
Warden Skeen and prison ad-
lministrators have admitted over
Icrowding and inadequate clothing
Iallotments. The warden said the
quality or quantity of food was not
an issue. but rather the manner
in which is was prepared by the
convict cooks.
Told of Message.
The break in the revolt came
this morning when State Police
Maj. r. w. Boyles suddenly ap-
Ipeared on the steps of the ad-
ministration building leading into
1.-THE exercise yard where the
prisoners had milled all night.
He yelled: II have q message
for you"
Get on the loud-speaker, /"
called back some of the prisoners.
Warden Skeen's voice came on
the prison public-address system.
"If you men care to 60 In your
cells" he said, "the doors are open.
And when you get in, we'll ar
range to feed you. We can't feed
you where you are"
There was a surge for the door.
There were some scattered yells

III THERE just under the clouds at the top of Russian

she loves planning dinners, to make them surprise
for the eyes, delight for the palate She reads
recipes and knows from the reading how the foods
going to taste. But it's Pedro, her Filipino cook,
who prepares the dishes she plans. No one but her
self is trusted to do the table arrangement.
Mrs Chidester thinks nothing of half days
shopping for certain type OF vase or BOWL or the
right figmines to fit into scheme. But usually she
has what she needs in her collection of table props.
One large room is given over to oddments gathered
from all parts of the world. Some of these came
from the dime store, from secondhand shops; many
pieces however, are worthy of museum shelf space.

School Construction
Program Is Analysed
CONTINUED from nrst pago)

The total program enacted this
year includes an expenditure Of
$16,424,S18 of which $1O,580,31S is
to be appropriated by the State
Local districts will be required to
raise $5,844,005 to match the State
funds. Thirty-four projects are in
cluded in the total cost. Eleven of
these projects are entirely State
supported.
DR.. Miller stated that ten of the
projects had been approved previ-
ously by the School Building Pro-
gram Board as a result of the
1949 program. In these ten instan-
ces the moneys made available are
for the purpose of completing the
programs which continually mount
ing costs have made possible. DR..
Miller also pointed out that many
more than the ten projects plan
to use some of the funds to com
plete the 1949 program and to use
the remainder for construction
made necessary by increased en-
rollments and educational pro-
gramming.
ut is gratifying to note the close
cooperation already evidenced be-
tween the School Building Program
Board, local boards of education
and building commissions, and the
State Board of Education in our
common attempt to expedite the
construction program as quickly
and as efficiently as possible" DR..
