that he was scrapping the
order forthwith because it
might be subject to misin-

issuance directly to the Little

then revoking an order without
disclosing exactly what it con-

he then issued this statement.

Time Switch SUNDAY?
Some Do, D. c. Doesn't

The crazy quilt national time
pattern, which seems to be
getting crazier by the hour,
becomes more confused than
ever Sunday when some areas
swap daylight time for the So
called standard variety.
Before fiddling with your
clocks. remember this: The
Washington area. including
nearby Virginia and Maryland,
will remain on daylight time
until october 81.

Some of the area will return

Most of the South and big
portions of the West and Mid
west never gave daylight time
a tumble. But Indiana, Wis

Whatever the time, it is a
safe bet that travellers will be
getting more confused as time
goes on.

King Saud declared he is GER

Pate Renamed
Marine Chief
Nominated to Serve
New 2-Yeur Term

Gen. Randolph Mccall PatC
has been given another two
year term as commandant Of
the Marine Corps by President
Eisenhower. The commandant';
present term expires December
81.
The decision Of the President
came as a surprise to some oh
servers. Gen. Pate was the first
Marine commander to be APP
pointed for a two-year term in
modern times. Formerly the
term was four years and some
commandments served longer.
1t was reported last June
that 1t. Gen. Merrill B. Twin
ing, commandant of the Ma
rine Corps base at Quantico
was in line to succeed Gen
Pate in January. Gen. Twining
is a brother Of Gen. Nathan F,
Twining, chairman Of the Joint
Chiefs of STAFF.
Center Of Controversy
Gen. Pate has been the cen
ter of military controversy on
occasions.
At the time Of the drowning
Of six Marine recruits at Paris
Island, S. c. in April, 1856. and
the subsequent court-martial
Of S/Sergt. Matthew c. Nc
Keen, Gen. Pate issued a state
ment that the Marine Corps
itself was on trial as well.
He found it necessary. how
ever. to send q letter Of expla-
nation to Representative Nor
blad, Republican of Oregon
Mr.. Norblad had expressed
concern because the comman-
dant's testimony before the
House Armed Services Com
mittee after the tragedy had
seemed to brush OF questions
about officer responsibility.
Gen. Pate later was a witness
at Sergt. McKeon's court
martial. He was criticized after
he sought out the sergeant anc
wished him good luck and after
he testified about an appro.
pirate punishment. which wa:
a responsibility Of the court.
MideaSt Incident
Last January Gen. Pate wa
reported to have angered tn
White House by a Statement
that the Marines in the Medi
terranean had live" atomi,
artillery shells. The inciden
came up just before Presiden
Eisenhower presented to Con
gress his new Middle East pol
icy.
Gen. Pate later said he wa
just as embarrassed as he coulC
be because this thing ha
blown up in my face. But h
declined to confirm. deny o
clarity the statement attributed
to him.
For these reasons Presiden
Eisenhower's recess appoint
ment late yesterday caused sur
prise in some quarters. TIL,
appointment will be subjec
to Senate confirmation whel
Congress reconvenes.

Indignation
BY CECIL HOLLAND

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept. ~
Quiet and peace prevailed
here today as nine Negro stu
dents began their third full day
of classes in the Army-enforced
indignation at Central High
School.
Army spokesman said there
had been no incidents and no
lettering by onlookers around
the broad perimeter established
by paratroopers at the school.
The situation was unchanged
as far as the school was con-
cerned by the speech last night
of Gov. Orval E. Faubus aSsail-
ing the use of Federal troops
to enforce indignation at the
school.

their main line one block away
from the schools principal

An Army spokesman said
this was done Ito provide a
more normal appearance" on
the school campus.
No incidents of any kind
were reported as the troops
guarded all streets leading inn
mediately to the school.
The Negro stuuents arrived,
as customary. at the school II
an Army station wagon es-
corted by troops in two jeeps.
From the Army vehicle they
were escorted to the school
door by two soldiers. Five
soldiers were their escort yes
terday and 81 on Wednesday on
the first day the Army brought
integration to the school.
100 Watch Arrival
About 100 students stood at
the entrance to watch them
enter. There was a little
laughter and a scattering Of
cheers but nothing else.
Attendance at the school
picked up for the last school
day of the week with 1,415
present and 585 absent.
This was a gain Of SIS over
yesterdays attendance and 165
more than the low point Of
attendance earlier in the week

Firemen, police and school
ofiicials agreed that two or
three persons were seen run

f1ared up while the flames were

There seemed little doubt

the college, at $3.50. 900.

tration Offices. Mr.. Dennis said
damage there was between $685.
900 and $4,000.
Mr.. Dennis, who attributed
the fire to vandals, said he
understood white youths were
seen fleeing Caroline Hall.
But Mr.. Harris declared that
Fireman E. w. Peterson had a
good look at the fleeing figures
and said they were Negroes.
Albany is about 20 miles
north Of the Florida State line.
White Youths at Scene
The detective said there were
white youths at the scene but
they apparently were specta-
tors, attracted by the early
morning blaze. They stopped
and talked with firemen and
newsmen. he related. adding
that this was something that
guilty persons would not be
likely to do.
However. Mr.. Harris said, Of

around 2 am. "
The fire in the auditorium
and administration building
started at the front Of the
stage just below the curtains.
Mr.. Harris said there was in
disputable evidence that the
stage had been doused with an
inflammable liquid, probably
gasoline.
Flames Also in Corridor
The blaze famed UP also in
the corridor of the east wing of
this structure but the detec-
tive said it apparently spewed
out from the auditorium.
Mr.. Dennis said that while
none Of the other buildings of
the 50 million college plant was
damaged, all were seriously
threatened.
Mr.. Dennis said the fire ap-
peared to him simply as an act
OF vandalism. He was unwill-
ing, he said. to attach any ra-
cial significance to it.
