Uncle Sam is getting two
for the price of one from many
of his overseas staff, thanks
to the helping hand of the
little woman.
The United States Informa-
ton Agency acknowledged this
handsomely this spring, when
1t announced that it planned
to scrutinize a prospective en-
ploye's better half almost as
carefully as it examined the
man himself.
The agency went so far as
to say that in a choice be-
tween a brilliant" man and
one rated merely good" the
latter would get the nod if
he had an obviously better
qualified wife.
Now USIA has gone one step
further. In his semi-annual
report to Congress, released
today, USIA Director Theo-
dore C. Streibert has singled
out 20 USIA wives as typical
of many who have served
sans salary-'with ingenuity
and distinction"
From Helsinki to Chill, from
New Delhi to Port-au-Prince,
their exploits make an inter-
estlng story.
A name familiar to WASH
ington, Helen Kinder Behrens,
is in the group. She is the
daughter of the late Hans
Kinder, long time conductor
Of the National Symphony Or
chestra. Her husband, Robert.
has been public affairs officer
in Salzburg. Austria, and In
formation Center Director at
Stuttgart. Germany.
Although she has five chill
dren to care for, Mrs. Behrens
taught English to IL German
youths, served as president Of
the Stuttgart Players, a theater
group which acted before Ger
man and American audiences.

Yankee because of archdiocesan
indignation plans.
One woman charged that the
church and the north are "the
same thing" when the Rt. Rev.
Henry Bezou, superintendent of
archdiocesan school, said it made
no difference where the archbishop
came from since Indignation was a
church matter.
archbishop Rummel was born
in Baden, Germany, ordained in
Rome in 1908, and served parishes
in Yorkville, Kingston and Harlem,
N. Y. He was bishop of Omaha,
Neb., before moving up to arch
bishop of New Orleans in 1889.
Some of the parents accused the
archbishop of mot being fair to
white people,; others of trying
to shove Indignation down our
throats."
Applause greeted an unidentified
man who asked! "Why does the
church insist on pushing Negroes
on us?"
New Orleans is the only city in
the south where more children at
tend parochial than public schools.
Msgr. Charles Plauche, chancel-
lor of the New Orleans Archdio-
cese, told newsmen Sunday that
racial Indignation may come in
Roman Catholic schools here this
year.
His remarks came following a
panel discussion at Ursilino Acad-
envy on Indignation, a topic that
split up a meeting of the Parents
Club at Jesuit high school two
weeks ago and is becoming a hot
ter issue every day.
Msgr. Paluche said the timing
of the Indignation was under study
and mo definite decision has been
made" He said, however, cts
very possible that it may come this
year"
The chancellor said the church
had tolerated segregation through
the ages because "often when you
are working for an ideal that's
right, you are tolerating a lot that
isn't right along the way"
About 81 percent of New Or
leans Catholic school children are
Negroes.
They have been attending sepa-
rate schools.

Oil Industry
Boosts Wages

New York-Thousands of oil
industry workers received a pay
boost of 6 per cent-or $26 or more
a month-effective February 1.
Both union and non-union en-
ployes will benefit.
Gulf Oil Corp, ESQ Standard
Oil Co, Socony Mobil Oil Co. and
Humble Oil & Refining Co. were
the first to announce the increases.
Then one after another of the big
companies followed.
Generally, the pattern calls for a
per cent wage boost with a mini
mum raise of Is cents an hour for
hourly rated employees who now
earn, on an average, about $3.50
per hour.
Salaried employees will also re-
ceive 6 per cent increase with
a minimum of S26 for such work
ers.
Different companies announced
variations to the general pattern.
Gulf announced that the increase
would apply only to those of its
$4,000 domestic employees who earn
less than $4,000 a year.
Socony disclosed that of it's ap-
proximately $4,000 employees, those
salaried workers on the 35-hour
week would receive an increase of
about $23 rather than $26.
The same increases, essentially,

Baton Rouge, La. Feb. 6 Lou
isiana State Universitys board of
supervisors decided on drastic steps
to prevent its athletic teams from
playing racially mixed opponents
and to head off an expected flood
of Negro enrollments. The board,
governing body of LSU, was going
to take the action in secret, but
decided to wait until a special open
meeting Feb. Is to announce it,

source revealed.
Athletic Director James j. Cor

contracts signed with Northern
schools a color" clause. 1t will
prevent LSU from playing sports
with a college which fields Ne
gro player.
Corbett sought the advice of
LSU president Troy Middleton who
asked the board to set policy.
LSU was planning to meet Wis
consin in 1857 in Wisconsin and
in Baton Rouge in 1858. Corbett
noted that there are two Negroes on
the Wisconsin team. He asked
the board how LSU planned to
face the situation with a minimum
of embarrassment to all concern
ed.
A plan to prevent all but a
trickle of Negroes from entering
Southern schools, will be through
the university, one of the leading
series of special requirements, in
Guiding an entrance examination.
LSU now has few hundred Ne
gro students. The new plan, which
is expected to be adopted officially
Feb. Is with only possible minor
charges, will cut down on the grad
uate students entering also.
White students who fail to meet
the requirements aimed at Ne
groes will not be allowed to enter.
All enrollees must meet the fol-
lowing requirements:
l. Two LSU alumni must sign
an application and letter of recon-
mendation for a student wanting
to enter. A photograph of the
enrollee will have to be supplied.

Chess Champ to Draw

The Chess champion of the
world, except Russia, was ma
neuyered to draw here yester-
day in specially arranged match
that served as sidelight to the
18th biennial congress of the
Greek Orthodox Church of
North and South America.
A delegate. Alexander Paleogos,
who is president Of the Airline
Marine Safety Corp. of New
York, had won several important
bouts via mail and figured he
was ready for a title go. The
best he could do was a standoff.
Samuel Reshevsky of Spring
Valley, N. Y, who calls himself
worlds champion, except Rus
sia,' came in just for the match.
Tense Struggle
The tense struggle took place
at the Sheraton Park Hotel in
a cloud of deep concentration.
It was a study in contrasts:
Mr.. Reshevsky was giving away
maybe so pounds TO his big. dark
opponent.
The tense little champion. as
precise as the chessmen he ma
neuvers, opened strong, but ended
up giving way to the strong play
of Mr.. Paleogos' rocks on the
queen side.
Charity turned out the winner.

Walking Is Series Of Falls,
Foot Doctors Are Told

hat, I'll show you how to treat a
foot with a shoe"
DR.. Turchin said foot doctors
are turning to the theories that
the buttress in a shoe is civili-
cations way of compromising for
the foot being forced to walk on
hard pavement.
The buttress in a shoe is that
part of the bottom which has
been forced into a lump by the
pressure of walking. There was
IA time, DR.. Turchin said, that
the foot doctor had the shoe
maker knock this lump out, but
now things have changed.
The buttress, it seems, stops
the foot's forward thrust, gives
the middle phalange point to
pivot upon, and forms a point
Of contact or propulsion for the
toes
DR.. Turchin pointed out that
man in his original state walked
on grassy soil and that with
each step a small buttress be-
meath the foot was formed natu-
rally. The foot, he added. was
not made for use on stone OF
pavement.
