Parents Trial

TAMPA R-The state rested its
child Staying case against John
and Alice Cliffe today, as signs
of a growing rift between the two
defendants became more open.
Earlier Mrs. Cliffe's attorney
had asked for a separate trial
a motion denied by Circuit Judge
Henry C. Tillman.
Today this attorney, Paul Buch-
man, protested to the court that
line of questioning by Cliffe's
attorney, Joseph D. Greene, puts
Alice Cliffe in a position not only
of defending herself against the
state but also against the defense.
Judge Tillman said that although
unfortunate, it ofen happened that
co-defendants were pitted against
each other in. their defense. He
allowed the questions. fe
Most of these questions. dealt
with the legitimacy of Mrs. Cities
son Wayne Dolham, the 4-year-old
boy whose death brought the
Cliffes to trial on first degree
murder charge.
The state closed its case after
presenting two more deputies,
l.. j. Swami and John Salla, to
tell of the defendants admissions
to starving, beating and hanging
the boy.
Deputies William BROKER and
Paul Hawkins said the Cities
freely admitted keeping the child
without food for three days, max
ing him stand during the DAYS with
his eyes blindfolded and his mouth
tapped, and hung him up at night
so his feet just touched the floor.
The boy, Wayne Dolham, died
during the third night, still strung
up. The mother and stepfather said
they were furnishing the boy for
disobedience and didn't think he
would die.
DR.. Taverno Martini testified the
child's body was covered with
bruises from head to toe.
THE palms of his hands and
the soles of his feet" were the only
parts of his body unbriised, the
doctor told the Circuit Court jury.
Mrs Cliffe sobbed time and
again. She broke down and wept
in a jail matron's lap when DR..
Martini described the autopsy on
her sons body.
Cliffe, nattily dressed, appeared
unmoved. He is n, a painter and
farmland.

In that statement we took our
stand with the synod of the fourth
province. The synod had recon-
mended that Negro candidates for
the ministery of the Episcopal
Church be admitted to the school
of Theology of this university.
ITO this the trustees replied that
the enrolment of Negroes should
not now be encouraged. The QueS-
ton was at that time Qast June)
a clear one: Shall this Christian
school of Theology be open to
Christians whatever their race may
be?' But since last June, the issue
has b EN- obscure and virtually
eclipsed by considerations not rele-
want to the basic questions"
When the controversy first be-
came public Chancellor r. Bland
Mitchell Of Little Rock, said there
was no university audience exclud-
ing Negroes, but that he had been
advised that such enrollments would
be in viloation Of Tennessee law.
No Negroes have ever applied for
admission to Sewanee, the Bishop
of Arkansas added.
In announcing the action, Doctor
McCrady also presented the uni
versity's observations" He said:
"The action of the trustees, in
advising against the immediate ad-
mission of Negroes, was definitely
neither informed nor in intentions.
Special committee of the trustees
is currently examining the whole
issue"
"The university must insist that
it stand thoroughly committed 10
principle and the practice Of COM
plete academic freedom. This uni
yersity holds that an attempt to
resolve the question by a resort TO
threats, or to bring organized pres
sure to bear. is an infringement OF
academic freedom. Even SO, the
university has not taken, and has
not proposed to take, any punitive
action against the petitioners"

sign and repeatedly took no part in
ne protest. is the Rev. Bayard II.

DANCER RETURNS AFTER
BRILLIANT DEBUT IN EUROPE

by Mambretti Studio in Italy.
The willOwy cinderella" said
she was formerly salesgirl at Ler-
ner's on West 125th Street in Har-
lem, at Claridge's Hosiery Shop and
few other stores in the same area.
She reevaled that she had worked
along sundry lines.
She attended several of the New
York public schools, including Stitt
Junior High, Com m cree High
school, and Rhodes High school, of
which she is a graduate. She is a
former student of City College and
Columbia University, where she
said she worked in the Bursar's
office.
II never started out to be a
dancer" she said. Law was my
first interest, but I was influenced
to study dancing by friend who
was studying it ct that time. I'm
sure that 1 won't return to law
now" ....
Wearing a heavy soft gold 5th
Century Egyptian bracelet, former
ly worn by several Egyptian
Queens, with a male ram head
carved at one end and a female at
the other, the 23-year-old young
woman said the bracelet was the
! only one of its kind in the world.
She went on to say that it was
valued at $500 and was gift
from an admirer. She intimated
rather modestly that the same adj
mirer had given her the large
platinum ring which she was wear
ing on her engagement finger. Set
with an diversified diamond flanked
by a dazzling host of smaller ones.
the ring is obviously one Of great
value.
Miss Henderson spoke of her
kindly 49-year-old maid. Theresa,
for whom she expressed nostalgia.
"She was so good to Bebop," she
said. "She would take her home
with her when I had to be away
from home on engagements. French
people are very fond of dogs. They
seem to like them better than they
like children"
Born in the Virgin Islands, the
young woman is the daughter Of
Mrs. Marjorie Henderson. q New
York Public Health Assistant, and
the granddaughter of Mrs. Jessie
Eanterpool, who in 1913 went to
Germany as the nurse of the son
of a German Ambassador.
Miss Henderson'S chief hobby is
studying African Art and while liy-
ing in Paris she carried on inde-
pendent research in this field ct
the Musee de L'Iomme at Paris.
The gifted young dancer said her
stay in America will be indefinite
but that she will lSail for Europe

with ell TV" in Rome.
