RICHMOND. Va, July 81 Up.
Delegate Robert Whitehead of
Nelson County, looking at recent
events at the College of William
and Mary. says the fright to
think, to differ and to boldly pro-
claim is the essence of academic
freedom"
In a letter to the Richmond
Times Dispatch, Mr.. Whitehead
said Gin the life of a college,
thinkers and teachers have not
only the right to question and to
differ. but the right to challenge
that in which they do not be-
|lieve."
The anti-organization Demo-
|crat said he had followed with
an "open mind" newspaper ac-
counts of controversies between
the administration and students.
These controversies resulted in a
student letter asking for a State
investigation of the situation.
In reply, the colleges Board oi
Visitors gave a vote Of confidence
to the administration of Presi-
dent Alvin Duke Chandler and
branded the student report wi
cious" and "vindictive."
Mr.. Whitehead was particu-
larly critical of passages in the
board statement that, in effect
invited anyone not in agree
ment with administration policy
to leave the college.
This later was questioned by
several members of the faculty
and the board issued a clarity
ing" statement saying it had moi
intended to discourage freedom
of thought.
Mr.. Whitehead said to him the
boards command was clear,
conform or get out" After the
statement was questioned, hs
said, "the board should have
either stood its ground or pub.

the faculty and to the people o.
Virginia for its unlicensed as.

The near-opening Of q "girlie"
show in Hyattsville, Nd. has
prompted the Prince Georges
County Commissioners to order
. thorough screening Of all
future carnival applications.
And the prohibition of all
road shows. as specified in
county regulations. will be
strictly enforced, according to
Board Chairman Jesse s. Bag
gett.
The Commissioners action
yesterday stemmed from a COM
plant by Mayor George J.
O'Hare, Of Hyattsville, on Mon
day, that q carnival was ready
to open that night on Hamilton
street and Ager road in viola
ton Of county law.
Rejected by Town
The Hyattsville Town Council
had rejected the carnival ap-
plication from a post Of the
Disabled American Veterans on
the ground that a "girlie" show
would be bad for the commu-
nifty. The Commissioners ap-
proved the application. how
ever, with the understanding
the "girlie" show would be
thrown out.
The carnival operator, accord
ing to Mr.. Baggett, thought tht
Commissioners meant the carni.
val should eliminate strip tease
acts but that other shows with
girls would be permissible.
"But no grille show or any
thing like it is going on at thai
carnival or at any other time,
the Commissioner emphatically
declared.
