While studying the digestion

NSF scientists found a wax
splitting bacterium" in the in
testinal tract which apparently
helps the birds digest their
waxy diet.
The scientists, knowing that
the causative germ of tubercu-
loSis has a waXy envelope,
tested the effect of protein frac-
ton on TB germs.
Appraising the research, the
NSF report said:
This investigation may not
only provide an explanation Of

species and of wax digestion
but also suggests important i'm

Unique waX-eating birds in
Africa have provided a clue
which eventually may help con-

Science foundation says.
In its current annual report,
the NSF said some of its con-

intestines of such birds a
hitherto unidentified bacterium
that produces a certain pro-
tein fraction.
This protein inhibits the
growth of tuberculosis germs
in test tubes. Moreover, in

efforts to iron out some diff

up submission of administra-
ton proposals for new civil

House COP. Leader Hal

differing views were repre-
Sented in a wide-ranging dis
cusSion of civil rights proposals
between Republican Senate and
House chiefs and President Eli
senhower today.
But he insisted that "there
we're no violent disagreementS." "
Early Message Seen
Mr.. Halleck and Senate Re-
publican Leader Dirksen pre-
dicted that the administration
program would be submitted to
Congress in a special message
by the Presidents very shortly" ."
Mr.. Halleck said the admin
istration would represent mod

probably would be somewhere
between measures sponsored by
Senate Democratic Leade +
johnson and Senator Douglas,
Democrat of Illinois.
Senator Dirksen commented

East German Red Cross agreed
last night to meet the European
director of the American Red
Cross in Berlin next Thursday
to discuss the release of United
States Army Pilot Richard

European Director Robert

1t. Mackin parachuted into
East Germany December 3
after he became lost while fly

frontier and his small plane
ran out of gas.
The United States has de-

RICHMOND, Feb. 3.-Gov.
Almond win name members Of
a special commission today or
tomorrow to draft a set Of
permanent public school laws
for another General Assembly
session March 81.
"You have kept faith with
the people," he told the four
day special session which con-
cluded its business last night
on the temporary school pro-
gram submitted by him.
Throughout the session, fol-
lowers of the court -discredited
massive resistance program
sought without success to en-
act legislation much stronger
than the Governors program.
In the closing hours yesterday,
the Senate beat down the last
major attempt to override the
Governors plan by a vote Of
% to II.
"You have demonstrated, "
said the Governor to the law
makers in a thank-you mes
sage, that harmony, good
will, mutual respect and toll
erance of diversity of view
points among yourselves and
between you and the chief
executive is worthy of
applause. The way ahead
is fraught with serious diff
culties. :"
Gov. Almond has said he ex-
poets to name a new legislative
study group, as large or larger
than the old 32-member Gray
Commission. In 1855 the Gray
Commission brought in a plan
that in some respects was
similar to the program enacted
at the session just concluded.
1t has been reported in some
quarters the Governor may
name as many as 40 of the 140
members of the Legislature.
In convening the special
session last Wednesday the
Governor outlined IL points as
among those the new commits
sion will be asked to study in
addition to the temporary
measures approved.
Already signed into law are
bills appropriating SO million to
pay up to $3.50 tuition grants
for educating children in
private schools and those in
curing expenses in other
public schools, repeating the
compulsory attendance law
and strengthening laws against
violence.
The final major test of the
Governors control over the
Legislature came in the Senate
, in mid-afternoon. That was
when a majority defeated a
bill that would have empowered
the Governor to close any
school deemed inefficient
under terms outlined in the bill.
offered by Senator Joseph
H. Hutcheson of Brunswick, it
advoided defining efficient" as
segregated but left no doubt
that that was its purpose.
Senator Mosby G. Perrow of

said the academy. which has
an enrolment of 256, has far
more applications than can be
accepted.
Glasses in Church
The school has II teachers
who are paid $500 a month on
a 12-month basis as compared
with $3.50 a month received by
those in the Norfolk public
schools. 1t occupies crowded
quarters in the Bayview Bap-
tist Church.
Orderly carrying out of in
tegration and not enrolment
figures was more in the minds
Of Norfolk authorities as the
second day of the reopened
schools began.
Police and school authorities
were expecting no trouble from
the students themselves, but
they were keeping an eye on
rowing groups of ducktail boys
usually dressed in blue jeans
who are not attending school.
Some of these groups have
been noticed around the schools
or riding by. Officials said they
believe that boys of this sort
were involved in one of the
few minor incidents reported
yesterday.
Incident at Bus Stop
1t involved me-calling di-
rected at Lolita Ports, 13, as
she left Blair Junior High
School after enrolling. The in
cident took place at a bus stop
three blocks from the school.
At Norview High, where
seven of the Negro students are
enrolled, only a score or two
of white students fingered out
side the building, although the
weather was much milder than
yesterday, to witness arrival of
the Negroes.
AT Blair Junior High, Princi-
pal Sam w. Ray, jr., reported
the two Negro students enrolled
there were going through a
normal day without any diff
ficulties.
Mr.. Ray said he believed a
few more students than yester-
day had reported for classes
He added that he expects the
schools enrolment to swell
from 800 to 900.
Mr.. Ray said no social ac-
tivitieS were planned because
it was believed necessarily pri-
marily for the students to con-
centrate for the rest of the
school year on their academic
work to make up for the time
lost while the schools were
closed. The schools annual
spring variety show, has be.
come a victim of this policy.
Evening star., 1959-02-03

Police Chief Harold Ander-
son said the morning was "ab-
solutely free Of any trouble
whatever.
While the excitement attend
ing the reopening Of the schools
yesterday was gone, Chief AM
derson emphasized that Nor
folk police will continue their
yigilence indefinitely as a pre-
cautionary measure.
while we do not expect any
disorders" he said, I'VE would
certainly be living IN a FOOLS
paradise If we didn't do this. "
All Seven Turn Up
All seven Of the Negro stu
dents enrolled at Norfolk's Nor
view High turned up shortly
before school began at 9 o'clock.
Most of the white students
already had entered the build
ing. The Negro students made
their way through small groups
standing in front of the main
entrance and entered the school
without comment.
Six uniformed policemen
under the direction of 1t. Allie
Watt, a former Washingtonian
who played baseball with the
Washington Senators in 1920,
was in charge Of the detail.
But the police at this school,
as they we're elsewhere, were
occupied mostly with directing
traffic.
School Supt. j. ]. Brewbaker
was on hand for the start of
the second day of integration
at Norview and expressed pleas
ure at the calm way in which
the school reopening was being
carried out.
Pickup Expected
Mr.. Brewbaker said he ex-
pected the six integrated
schools to pick up between 500
and 1000 more students with
in the next week or two.
White enrolment was of
about 1900 in all the six schools
on the basis of figures released
by Mr.. Brewbaker's office.
The superintendent said he
expected the eventual enroll
ment for the remainder of this
school year to be between 1000
and 1900 as compared with
Evening star., 1959-02-03

about 10000 that was expected
when the six schools were closed
last September 28.
No final date has been fixed
for closing of enrolment, Mr..
Brewbaker said. The school Of
fetal added that he believed
students who have been receiv-
ing tutoring are. not deficient In
any Of the subjects they have
been taking and can be trans
ferred to the public schools
satisfactorily.
About 4,500 students from
the six schools have been re-
ceiving tutoring from the reg
ular Norfolk teachers.
No Social Affairs Policy
Mr.. Brewbaker and other
school authorities. including
some of the principals Of the
six schools, said no definite
policy has been established on
school social affairs for the
remainder of the year. But 1t
was emphasized that they ex-
pected them to be kept at a
minimum.

Meeting Baked
Harry B. Davis of Princess
Anne County, chairman of the
House Education Committee,
refused to call a meeting of his
group to take up two bills.
One by Delegate Arthur H.
Richardson of Dinwiddie would
have set up a system of local
pupil placement boards to take
student assignment duties away
from the State Pupil Placement
Board or local school boards.
The other by Delegate Sam
Pope of Southampton, would
have segregated boys from girls
in integrated schools.
Still another show of strength
by Almond hackers came in the
appropriations com mittee,
which voted 16 to / to kill a
bill by Delegate Roy Smith of
Petersburg. That measure
would have provided State tut
ton grants for children trans
Ierlng from one school dlVl-

complishment of integration.
However, he complimented the

equal to the largest one
the State has ever har-
vested.
The forecast from the
United States Department Of
Agriculture is for 3.5 million
boxes of Temples, At million
boxes of other early and mid

lion boxes Of Valencias for a
grand total of SO million
boxes for the 1959-60 sea-
son as compared to So mil
lion harvested a year ago.
The picture isn't as bright
when it comes to the grape
fruit crop. The estimated
yield is the lowest in the
past 10 years. with the ex-
ception of the freeze season.
Production of seedless vari-
cites is estimated at slightly
more than last season, but
the seeded crop is predicted
to be far short of last sea-
son. However. the major
part of this seasons grape
