Friends Support
Youth Awaiting
Robbery Sentence
By Mary Lou Werner

A Georgia farmboy who went
into the Army and fell into a
life Of crime is learning what
it means to have friends back
home. All because they knew
him as a good boy.
Husky, blond Pvt. Gerald Eu-
gene Foskey, awaiting sentence
for three admitted armed rob-
berries, has been cheered in his
Alexandria jail cell by a food
of letters and personal pleas
from outstanding public officials
and citizens in his native Eman-
uel County, Ga.
Everybody seems to want the
19-year-old boy to come back
home where they would try to
lead him on the straight and
narrow again.
Young Foskey got into trou-
BILE last November when he and
two other soldiers were am
bushed by police. One of his
buddies. Pfc. Thomas Card, 81,
was fatally wounded, and the
other, John Everett Vaughan,
10. was hit in the leg.
Foskey says it was Card,
whom he met at Fort Myer, who
led him astray and into series
of three motel robberies on Shir-
ley Highway.
Possible Death Sentence.
Caught red-handed. Foskey
pleaded guilty and faces a pos
sible death sentence for his GRIM
inal fling.
Social workers are finding it
hard to explain how Foskey
went awry. They have learned
the young man was the oldest of
two sons Of Norman Foskey, q
respected member Of the COM
munity as his father and grand
father before him had been. Mr..
Foskey served on the Emanuel
County School Board
The host of friends who have
gone to bat for FoSkey remem-
ber that he was apparently grow
ing in the same mold as his
forebears - outstanding in All
and Future Farmers of America

Group Protests
Report Release
Action Domuges
U. of Maryland,
McKeIdin Told
By q sta, stoff Correspondent.

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. 1.-The
chairman of the association that
delivered the critical accredita-
ton report on the University of
Maryland has written to Gov.
McKeldin, protesting the public
release of the controversial re-
port.
The report from the Middle
States Association Of Colleges
and Secondary Schools had been
suppressed by the university's
Board Of Regents for seven
months. It was made public two
weeks ago by legislative leaders
after it was delivered here in re-
sponse to a request by Senate
Minority Leader Robert Kimble.
Damage Seen.
In a letter to Gov. McKeldin,
made public last night by the
Governors Office the chairman
of the Middle States Association,
Ewald B. Nyquist, states:
"It is a question Of some mo-
ment whether the 'pitiless pub
licity' given the University Of
Maryland as a direct result of a
release of its evaluation report
to the press has not resulted in
much damage in a variety of di-
rections. including misinterpre-
tation and distortion Of the facts,
injury to the university's dignity
and standing as an institution Of
higher learning and adverse ef-
feet upon the association which
I represent"
Mr.. Nyquists' chief purpose in
writing the Governor was not
to cry over the spilled milk of
the now well-publicized Univer-
sity of Maryland report, how
ever. Most of his letter was in
the form of plea to Mr.. Nc
Keldin to stop Senate President
Louis L. Goldstein from carry
ing out a threat to make all
other colleges receiving State
funds release their evaluation
reports.
Agreement Reached.
Mr.. Goldstein and other legis-
lative leaders reached an agree
ment with administrators of the
four colleges involved yesterday,
however, and the evaluation re-
ports will remain confidential.
The legislative leaders agreed
to inspection tours of Western
Maryland College, Washington
College. Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity and st. Johns College in
lieu of reading lengthy, detailed
evaluation reports.
Mr.. Nyquist. in his letter of
January q. explained that the
evaluation reports of his as
sociation are confidential and
privileged communications"
He said the preparation of
such reports as the one compiled
on the University of Maryland
after a visit by a committee of
SO investigators in November,
1858, has always been with the
assumption that they would be
confidential.
Senator Goldsteln disputed
Mr.. Nyquist's contention that
publication of the report caused
distortion of the situation at
the University of Maryland. He
argued that withholding the re-
port made for more distortion
and resulted in exaggeration
of the university's failings.

Bill 10 Increase
Liquor Permits
Considered
Racket in License
Sales Seen Under
Prince Georges Low
BY Gene Goodwin
Star Ssoff Correspondent


ANNAPOLIS, Feb. Prince
Georges County legislators to-
day are considering lifting the
freeze on alcoholic beverage Ii
censes in their county.
They are contemplating in
PRODUCTION Of a bill in the Mary
land General Assembly that
would attempt to regulate the
number of liquor and beer es-
tablishments in Prince Georges
by election districts. based on a
population formula.
The aim of increasing the
number Of licenses permitted
in the county would be to stop
the buying and selling of license
privileges at exorbitant prices.
Delegate Ernest A. LovelesS,
jr., of Prince Georges said some
licenses are selling for as much
as $4,000 or $4,000.
The highlights of liquor law
reforms being considered by the
county delegation here we're
disclosed in a meeting last night
with the county Liquor Board.
Would Curb Racket.
Liquor Board Counsel Ross G..
Porter said his board definitely
recommends abolishing or rails
ing the 353-license ceiling now
written into the county law.
"We want to end this traffic
In liquor licenses which is be-
coming a racket" he said.
Mr.. Porter and the liquor
board members emphasized their
belief that the law has ample
restrictions on the number of
licenses in the county without
spelling out a precise ceiling.
They said they thought the num-
ber of licenses ought to be a
matter to be decided by the board
and not frozen into law.
Questions put to board men,
bers by the county's Senator,
H. Winship Wheatley. jr., and
Delegate Hervey Machen indi-
Gated consideration is being
given to a population formula
for determining the number Of
liquor licenses in each election
district.
Reaction Sought.
Mr.. Loveless sought reaction
of Liquor Board members to
provisions of a 1858 omnibus
county liquor bill he had drafted
when he was counsel to the
board. The bill was introduced
in the closing days of the legis-
lative session that year and died
in the House Ways and Means
Committee.
Mr.. Loveless indicated he IA
vors putting the main provisions
of his 1858 bill into the measure
to be drafted by the delegation
this year. Mr.. Loveless is the
county delegations representa-
tive on the House Alcoholic Bev-
erages Committee here.
Main Provisions.
The main provisions of that
1858 measure were these:
/. It would ban any new liquor
licenses within 1000 feet of any
church or public school.
2. It would give the liquor
board authority to deny a Ii
cense application if no public
need for a new liquor establish
ment were shown.
8. 1t is provided for manda-
tory revocation of a liquor Ii
cense If the license holder were
convicted of three violations Of
the liquor law within three
years.
4. 1t would give the liquor
board inspector some police
power, in that he would be able
to issue a summons if he wit
messed a liquor law violation.
The liquor board was asked to
submit its considered opinion of
these and lesser provisions of
the 1858 measure. MIR. Porter
said he hoped to deliver that
opinion to the delegation next

Dulles Tells NATO
Cold War Is Back
After 1Zigg-Zag'

PARIS, R-U.S. Secretary of
State Dulles told the NATO Coun
Gil Of Ministers yesterday that the
East-West cold war is on again
after neorly a year Of Soviet poll
cy zig-zagging.
Discussing the trends and mo-
tives of Russian policy in 1855,
Dulles declared the new rulers of
he Soviet Union have opened up
dangerous new cold war fronts in
the Middle East and South Asia.
He added, however, the 15-na-
ton Atlantic Alliance had over
come greater dangers in the, past
by remaining ever vigilant and
united.
Dulles spoke at the opening of
the first council meeting since last
summers Big Four summit con-
ference at Geneva.
Also attending the annual year
end meeting Of NATO foreign, de-
Tense and finance ministers were
US. Secretary Wilson and Treas
ury Secretary Humphrey.
What, he asked, are the reasons
for this year of Soviet "zig-zag-
ging?" He suggested:
L. 1t might be due to the ele-
ment of confidence, flowing from
a belief in Russia's increased
strength.
2. 1t might derive from the So.
VETS fear that new ideas would
affect the compact structure of
their system.
8. And it might be the result of
a recrudescence Of Stalinism,
which he believes is by no means
dead in the Soviet Union.
