South Africa Has
Jailed 800 Non
Whites In Month

CAPE TOWN, South Africa
The Union of South Africa has
jailed more than 800 non-whites
in a month since the non-whites
began defiance of apartheid tex
IRENE segregation) laws.
A few persons have been ac-
quilted, and some have been freed
but more than 700 are still in iail.
In the meantime, leaders of the re-
sistance program say that more
than 10000 Africans, coloreds and
Indians are willing to participate
in this program.
South African police officers are
trying something new to get rid
of some of the jailed persons. They
are emptying the captive's pockets
and taking the money as payment
for "fines," then releasing the vic
tim.
To combat this, resistance forces
have decided that arrested per-
sons will have no money in their
pockets when they go to jail.

COME 20 years ago silly fad called What's
- This?" swept the country. The gist of the
game was that through complicated finger and
hand gestures plus movements of eyes, feet
and tongue, if necessary you could act out
song title, metaphor or even proverb.
Recently the two 17-year-olds shown here
Sylvie Brown and Josephine Paleologue va
cationing on Cape Cod, ran across What's
This?" - an old book of handles compiled by
Milt Gross, Robert Low and Lou Wedemar.
It gave them an idea for willing away time
sun-bathing.
Photographer Carlton Brown caught sight
of them, took several pictures. and finally,
overcome by curiosity, asked them what was
up. Here are the pictures and explanations.

twice that amount from his in

Virginia Schools
Falls Church Board
Told of Tentative
Construction Funds

School construction funds to-
falling nearly $40 million may be
available to nearby Virginia from
the Federal Government, if an APP
preparation already approved by
the House passes the Senate, the
Falls Church School Board was
informed last night.
Supt. Irwin H. Schmitt said that
ION the basis Of very tentative
figures. not in any way Official"
the Office Of Education has esti-
mated that Falls Church may re-
ceive $438.060; Arlington County.
SIS. 467 1871, and Fairfax County
1896, OS4.
The House-approved appropria-
ton Of $135 million. Mr.. Schmitt
said, was considered sufficient to
grant the full Falls Church
amount. Both Fairfax and Ar
lington have higher priorities
than the city, he said.
Other Priorities Lower.
The prioritieS Of Alexandria and
Prince William and Stafford
Counties are much lower.
The appropriation would be
made under Public Law 815, the
superintendent said, which pro-
videS aid for areas where heavy
Federal employment has crowded
the schools. Funds already have
been distributed to other areas
with higher priorities, Mr.. Schmitt
said.
Mr.. Schmitt said the tentative
figures were issued at a meeting Of
school superintendent and an
Office Of Education representative
Tuesday in Richmond.
Hopes for Funds by Fall.
The superintendent said he
hopes the city can get funds by
September for an addition to the
high school now under construc-
ton. Even If this amount is grant,
ed, he said, the city's priority still
may be enough to warrant
further grant to build elementary
school facilities to replace sub
standard classrooms. Both Of
these projects would come within
the $438,060. he said.
Board member Oliver j. Cald-
well said he had talked with Of
flee of Education officials and that
he is hopeful the appropriation
will be made and Falls Church
will qualify.
The formula for ALLEGATION Is
close to $1,000 for each child GOV.

Greenbeh Group Set
For Drive 10 Take Up
Priority 10 Buy City

The Greenbelt Veterans Hous-
ing Corp. last night cleared the
way for a whirlwind membership
campaign that must enlist SOC
Ipaid-in families by April 20 to
lock up the corporations priority
to buy the city from the Federal
Government.
Nearly 300 members voted to
approve the sales contract recon-
mended by the corporation Board
of Directors. Except for minor
revisions, this will be the agree
ment under which the city's 1885
housing units will be bought on
a cooperative basis from the
corporation.
The Public Housing Administra-
ton, which has fixed the sale
price of the community at $8.9
million, has specified that the
corporation must execute con-
tracts with at least 800 member
families and received at least that
number of 500 earnest money
payments from each of these
families.
Deadline Nears.
Since the deadline is less than
four weeks off, the directors board
strongly urged residents to Join
the corporation and have the
necessary 500 deposits on hand
when the contracts are ready for
signing probably within the next
two weeks.
To facilitate enlistment Of the
required number of families, a
move was launched last night to
set aside membership action last
week when it was decided that
the 800 signerS must be Green
belt residents, rather than out
SiderS.
Corporation President Michael
Salzman said that many out-of-
town residents have expressed a
desire to join the housing group
and buy Greenbelt homes. He
indicated that unless these people
are admitted, the corporation may
be unable to meet the 800 quota,
and PHA will be allowed by law
to deal with other prospective
purchasing outfits.
Speculation Barred.
Use of the 800 acres of under
privileged land in the city limits
came up for extended discussion
in which Mr.. Salzman pledged
that nobody is going to specu-
late or make other than a rea-
sonable profit out of this land"
He promised that the board of
directors will issue a prospectus
on the development of this land
as soon as possible after the cor
poration enters contract negotia-
lions with PHA.
The directors also promised to
discuss with PHA inequities of
values fixed on a num-
Der of dwelling units.
