The
Rambler
Yeurns for
Spring Of Turf
By GEORGE KENNEDY

The Rambler was thinking
of taking up golf.
Not that he would like the
game.
He has been around a few
times.
He is under the impression
that he once broke 100.
The trouble with golf (it's
the same with three-cushion
billiards) is that you are al
ways playing against your
self.
When you're through,
you're mad at yourself.
You are all too aware that
you could have done much
better than you did.
This idea of taking up golf
was due entirely to the
greenneSS of the grass of late.

RIA to Set Land Price
Before Calling Builders

building circles. Right now
stafers are drafting'a brochure
describing the sites.
Under the procedure used for
disposing of much of the land
in Southwest, RIA has set the
price of the land after picking
a developer through private
negotiation.
Costly Layouts Dropped
The new plan envisionS pick
ing one developer from many
who submit proposals. The
prospective developers will be
asked to describe what they
plan for the land, but detailed
and expensive layout5 will not
be required.
RIA officials are hopeful
Washington builders will be
interested in developing the
sites.
Although different, the new
procedure is not the one sought
by hackers of the Rabaut bill
passed by the House. They
want land to be leased or sold
through public bidding.

One parcel is an 8.68-acre

Fourth streets, Delaware ave-

houses will be built there.
Change in Procedure
In a departure from current
procedures, the RIA will set
the square foot price of the
land before contracting builders

Also, the intention of the

RICHMOND, Aug. 10 (AP) -
Ten Virginia localities will have
integrated public schools when
the 1901 session starts next
month, and four of them will
be experiencing desegregation
for the first time.
Richmond, the State capi-
tai, and Roanoke in the south
west were added to the list
yesterday by the State Pupil
Placement Board, which earlier
this month had ordered the
first integration in Fairfax
County.
The City of Pulaski, in South
western Virginia, is under court
order to admit IA Negroes to
its previously all-white high
school in September.
Previously integrated - and
to have additional integration
this fall-are school in Alex
andria, Arlington, Norfolk,
Charlottesville, Warren County
and Floyd County.
140 Negroes Shifted
Either by Federal Court as
signment or placement by the
pupil placement board, about
Il40 Negroes will attend schools
in these localities which have
been all white or predominantly
white in the past.
The newly organized place
ment board, which replaced one
that made no integration as
signment, in three meetings
since its membership changed
earlier in the summer, has as
signed 40 Negroes to such
schools.
1ntegralon was assured for
Richmond and Roanoke yes
terday when the three-member
board assigned two Negro girls
to Chandler. Junior High in
Richmond and nine Negroes
to three elementary schools in
Roanoke.
In addition, the board yes
terday assigned IL Negroes to
five Alexandria schools and one
Negro to a previously integrated
junior high school in Norfolk.
In Alexandria, one Negro was
assigned to Jefferson School.
two to Ramsey School, two to
Ficklin School, three to How
ard School and four to Ham
mond High School.
The board assigned one Ne
gro to the previously integrated
Northside Junior High in Nor
folk.
Others Reassigned
On August S, the placement
board had assigned three Ne
groes to two all-white elemen-
tary schools in Fairfax and one
additional Negro to the into
grated Warren County High
School in Front Royal.
Nine days before that, at its
first formal meeting, the board
had broken precedent by VOL
unfairly assigning IL Negroes
to white or predominantly white
schools in Arlington.
AS the board took its action
in Richmond, United States
District Judge John Paul in
Harrisonburg was rejecting the
petitions of 10 Negroes for as
Signment to white or predom-
inantly white schools in Char
lotteSville.
Eleven Negroes attended the
previously all-white Lane High
School and Venable Elementary
School in Charlottesville last
session. Nineteen will attend
these schools under assignment
by the local school board in
1861. The local school board,
however, had rejected the ap-
plications of the 10 who took
their pleas to court.
Judge Paul told the Negro pc
titioners in his ruling yesterday
that Charlottesville has fairly
administered the local place
ment plan he approved last
year and that it has worked
well with a minimum of fric-
ton"
In the previous four years of
its existence, the placement
board never before had volun-
tarily assigned a Negro to a
white school though some in
tegration had taken place by
court order.

the Foreign Service department
of State and the Central Intel
ligence Agency.
When you try to find out
why they aren't under Civil
Service jurisdiction, you get
vague and different answers.
Some reasons are obvious.
Some are excepted by law by
the very nature of their secre-
tive work-like CIA" said a
Civil Service employe.
Great Security
Or as an FBI secretary said,
when l located her in that huge
building with it's maze of COR
ridors, We'll. we have to have
more security checks than the
Civil Service. Someone might
be a wonderful typist and have
murdered someone. We couldn' t
have her here, of course. Now
that's too strong a statement
but you get the idea"
She told me the FBI was
doing little hiring and asked if
I could afford or would be will
ing to wait six to seven weeks
while they processed me. She
gave me some FBI brochures
and an application.
If you're really interested
we can start processing your
application when you fill it
out" she said with a dismiss
ing, perfunctory smile.
On the way to the State
Department I leafed through
the application. Not only did
they want your personal his
tory, employment, residences
for the last 10 years, references,
but a complete list Of relatives
including the brothers and
sisters of your husband or wife"
and "the wives and husbands
of brothers and sisters"
The State and CIA buildings
wear a look of bustling author
ity. Receptionists in the per-
sonnel Offices regard you with
some suspicion and cody gauge
your worth.
A State Department inter-
viewer said, You have to be
willing to serve on a worldwide
basis after working in the
United States for six to nine
months. If you pass all the
appropriate tests, you have to
have a suitability clearance be-
fore we make any job commit
mentS."
FL to Go Overseas
She added, 1T is very COM
mon that girls come in looking
for jobs, as you did. Some are
l8 and 19 and have no idea
what it's all about. They've
heard about the State Depart
ment, that's all. You have to
be at least 81 for overseas
assignment"
In a CIA. I was told, Our
girls are a notch or two above
average. Our requirements are
extremely rigid. We spend about
ST 1000 and a great deal of time
before person is cleared. We
study every phase of personal
life and work record.
When a person passes. we
try to match her we'll with ex-
listing vacancies. This takes
about four to six months for
full clearance and processing.
We follow Civil Service pay
scale.
while apprenticing, there is
no firm commitment of an
overseas job. Unless someone is
completely flexible as to where
she wants to go. she may not
get overseas. We just CAN'T
send any more to Rome, Lon
don or Paris right now.
I'VE do get many government
girls who have tired of their
work and want to come with
us. We're looking for girls with
potential.
And one other thing. Any
one working for the CIA has
to have an absolute passion for
anonymity"
She added with a grin: Per-
hapS that's one reason why
many Americans aren't geared
to this type of work"
Tomorrow: A place to live.
