Reaffirms Its Position.
The association said it wanted

action taken last January. The
official position follows:
"On the basis of the record, DR..
Corning has accomplished much
to raise the level of the educa-

morale among elementary school
officers. Among the positive gains
are curriculum revision. legislation
resulting in the single salary
schedule for teachers. sick leave
for teachers, clerical help for the
elementary schools, an in-service
program for teachers and officers,
and the ALLEGATION of additional
funds for books and equipment in
the elementary field.
Such gains evidence the CO.

rary. butchers say, SO don't wait
too long.
Top-quality beef cuts are being
featured on Washington Area

week end. An over-supply-and
1.-THE recent popularity of turkey

as 10 or Is cents a pound in some
lStoreS.
Loin pork items and some
grades of eggs also have eased
in price. Butter, however, has
climbed as much as 6 cents d
pound.

ipected to continue until around the

of the pork season, and meat coun-
lters today were featuring both loin
lroasts and center cut chops. The
Agriculture Department called
Spork a best buy.
Prime, top grade beefsteaks and
Iroasts were advertised at the same
price as choice by some chains to-
day. At several chains rib roasts
were offered for 79 cents pound,

Corporal Friendship
With Twins Mother
Told at Murder Trial

An Army corporal told. an Ar
lington jury today that he had
stayed at the apartment Of Ruth
Ellis Beverage "eight or nine times
since last November" but said he
never noticed that the 25-year-
old Government girl was pregnant.
Miss Beverage is charged with
the murder of her newborn twin
girls last August.
Corpl. Antoine Titram. %, of
Arlington Hall, in answer to a
question by Defense Attorney
Oren r. Lewis. admitted he had
intimate relations with Miss Bev-
'erage. but said they had never
discussed marriage and that he
never intended to marry her.
Miss Beverage never told him
she was pregnant. he testified.
Death Cause Unknown.
Earlier. DR.. Richard E. Palmer
of Alexandria Hospital testified
there was mo way of finding out"
what caused the two babies to
stop breathing. He said the twins
could have lived Is minutes or IL
hours after Miss Beverage gave
birth to them unattended.
Commonwealth's Attorney Den
man T. Rucker said he will at
tempt to prove that Miss Beverage
killed the twins after she had
delivered them unaided in her
apartment in the 800 block OF
South Quincy street.
One of the witnesses, Detective
John Wise. testified yesterday
that Miss Beverage had returned
to her work at Arlington Hall
Government installation on Lee
boulevard. the morning after the
birth of the children. He said
he had been called to the home
by Mrs. George Davis, who had
reported finding blood in the room
when she went to change the
linen In the upstairs apartment
Bodies in Closet.
The detective said he and the
county coroner. DR.. w. c. We'll
burn, had discovered the bodies
wrapped in newspapers in a suit
case which had been placed in
Miss Beverages bedroom closet.
The Commemorative attorney
told the jury, Il feel that imposi-
ton of the death penalty in this
case is out of the question
but when an event Of this kind
occurs, things are set in motion.
We have no choice but to present
this to the jury and let you de-
eide"
Mr.. Lewis, said the question to
be decided by the jury is whether
she killed the twins or whethey
they died as result of the ordeal
they went through along with
their mother"
