Richard Krohn Of Harvard

Krohn, a bearded 29-year-

a SO and came back the next

one.
Krohn maintained the ira
dition that the rich handicap

FLOYD, Va. July 25 (AP).-
Parents of Is Negro children
seeking transfer to Floyd
County's white schools were
summoned yesterday by the
Boatwright Commission for a
hearing here Monday at 10 am.
I'm not surprised" said Reu-
ben E. Lawson, the parents at
torney. Mr.. Lawson's office is
in Roanoke.
The commission headed by
77-year-old Delegate John B.
Boatwright of Buckingham was
created by the General AS
Sembly to investigate legal prac-
tees. Its chief target has been
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People.
Mondays hearing will be at
the courthouse.
Mr.. Lawson, an NAACP at
torney, said he is not surprised
because the commission has
held hearings everywhere in
Virginia where the NAACP has
been involved in desegregation
suits.
Mr.. Lawson said he plans to
accompany his clients to the
Monday hearing. In the past
they have been closed to the
public.
The Boatwright Commission
has been trying to find out
whether the NAACP has been
promoting the indignation suits
in Virginia and how the litiga-
ton has been financed.

Bay Oyster She'll
Dredging Planned

ANNAPOLIS, July Is (AP).
The State entered negotia-

ing of oyster shells beneath
Chesapeake Bay after reports
of further rich finds in lower
bay areas.
DR.. H. c. Byrd, chairman of
the Maryland Tidewater Fish
cries Commission, said, final ar

might not be completed for
several days, but he expects

The State will have first call
on all shells taken by a COM
mercial firm which plans to use
them in making of poultry
feed. The Fisheries Depart
ment plans to add two-and-a-
half million bushels a year to
its shell paintings as clutch

Representative Davis, Demo-
