West Point
Request in
Jeopordy
By the Associated Press

West Point win lose a $780,.
900 bequest by Mary Williams
Crozier unless 1t uses the money
to build a memorial hall to her
late husband on a site specified
in her will, the United States
Court Of Appeals has ruled.
At the same time the court
rejected, for the present al
least. the claim of Connecticut
College. New London, Conn.
for the 100000.
Mrs. Crozier widow of Mai
Gen. William Crozier, a member
Of the West Point class OF
1876, died here August 2, 1852
Gen. Crozier was chief of army
ordance from 1901 until 1918
The 100000 bequest to the
Military Academy stipulated
that the money be used to
build "Crozier Hall" on a site
south Of Fort Clinton and north
of the bachelor officers quar-
tiers. Mrs. Croizer left the re-
mander of her estate to Con-
necticut College, which has re-
ceived 1921, 309. The hall was
to be used primarily as a meet
ing place and quarters for old
graduates returning to visit the
Point.
Military authorities said fu-
ture planning for expansion
required that the Fort Clinton
area be reserved for academic
buildings and dormitories. They
also said 100000 wasn't
enough for a hall such as that
envisioned by Mrs. Crozier and
asked a court order permitting
its use for an attachment or
wing on some other building.
Connecticut College filed a
counterclaim. 1t said that, be-
cause the site was not avail
able and the bequest insufficient
for the construction of a sep
arate building. it was entitled
to the money.
In its decision today, the
court said West Point cannot
reject the physically available
site selected by Mrs. Croizer
and still be entitled to receive
her bequest.
But, the court said, the be-
quest has not been finally re-
jected. Accordingly. the court
held Connecticut Colleges
counterclaim was correctly dis
missed in Federal District
Court.

blow by bringing an apron and
mixing bowl into the House
and demonstrating to the I'M
tutored males just how hard
it was for a housewife to mix
color into margarine. The men
voted her down at first, but
the public interest aroused by
her stunt brought eventual
victory.
The men couldn't decide
whether they disliked me more
because I was a woman or be-
cause I was a Democrat" she
said about those days when
the Democrats were in the
minority in Oregon.
After the Neubergers

they were correct.
Mr.. Corey said he sold out his
interest in the firm after he
received a copy of a code Of
ethics passed by the 85th Con-
gress from the Department of
Agriculture. Previously he said,
an attorney had assured him
his partnership in the company

"Was Never Asked"
Mr.. Corey said he had not

Agriculture about the arrange

Doerfer's Letter
My Dear Mr.. President:

My Dear Mr.. President:
I am resigning as a commits
sioner of the Federal Commu-
nications Commission and its
chairman, effective at the close
Of business on March IA, 1860.
The mandate from Congress
which requires a commissioner
Ito study new uses for radio
and generally encourage the
larger and more effective use
thereof" requires day-to-day
contact with many industry
people. A number of these con-
facts eventually ripen into social
acquaintance and sometimes
friendships, which, despite ap-
pearances. do not imperil the
integrity of either the Govern
ment official or the member of
industry.
I have not, nor will I waver
from my views that the best
solution to modern-day Gov.
eminent regulation of complex
industry problems demands a
thorough knowledge Of that
industry and actual contact
with the members thereof.
NonetheleSs, to avoid possible
embarrassment to you and your
administration, submit this
resignation as Of the date above
indicated.
1t was indeed q privilege to

said the committee first should
agree on which of several pend
ing tax bills should be reported.
The committee voted 10 to 8
not to report the bill.
Shortly before the Senate re-
convened last night, Arlington
State Senator Charles r. Fen
wick, who has taken a lead
ing role in most administra-
ton measures, and Senator Ed
ward L. Breeder, jr., of Nor
folk-both members of the
Finance Committee-conceived
the idea of discharging that
committee from further con-
sideration of the bill.
A few minutes after the SEN
ate convened last night, SEN
ator Charles T. Moses of Ap-
pomattox arose to make a mo-
ton for adjournment until to-
day. Senator Moses, who has
been voting against the Al
mond forces, yielded the floor
to Senator Breeder.
The Norfolk Senator then
moved to discharge the Finance
Committee.
They've Got the Votes"
This created a stir. There
was much scurrying about on
the floor with Senator Fenwick
and Senator Armistead L.
Boothe of Alexandria, making
a quick nose count" to make
sure they had enough men,
bers present to support the
Breeder maneuver.
Chairman j. D Hagood of
the Finance Committee then
offered as a substitute, q mo-
ton to recess for As minutes so
that the committee could ire
consider" its previous action
The recess was agreed to by
both sides.
In the meantime, tardy Sen
ators who had been hurriedly
summoned, began showing up.
Senator. Mosby G. Perrow-an
Almond supporter-walked in.
He was followed shortly by
Senator E. Almer Arnes of
Accomack - an Almond oppo-
nent-who has been seriously i'll
and has not been attending ses-
sions in the last few days.
Eventually, Senator Baldwin
was located. When he showed
up, an Almond opponent, Sem
ator Mills E. Goodwin Of Suffolk,
told the Finance Committee,
I'VE might as well report the
bill-they've got the votes"
With Senator Baldwin, the
Almond bloc could count on a
20-to-19 vote.
After the Senate reconvened,
Chairman Hagood reported the
Finance Committee had unani-
mously voted to bring the
budget to the floor.
The House Of Delegates.
meanwhile, was awaiting SEN
ate action on the budget. A
coalition group of friends of
the budget" was reported as
standing firm against any cuts
that might be made by the
Senate.
This is the principal factor
that could hold the Legislature
in an extended session beyond
its scheduled adjournment at
midnight tomorrow.

to Miami and the Bahamas.
He also acknowledged at that
time that he had accepted sub
stantial sums from the radio
TV industry in speech-making
fees and travel expenses.
The Harris committee later
issued a report criticizing FEC
members for accepting excess
sive hospitality from the indus
try it is charged with regulat-
ing. Its members appeared
amazed last Friday when Mr..
Doerfer told of the latest cpl
sode in his friendship with Mr..
Storer.
He and Mrs. Doerfer were
preparing to depart for Florida
last month. he said, when Mr..
Storer invited them to fly with
him on his private plane. Mr..
Doerfer said he accepted on
the condition that he would
turn over to the broadcaster
the $213 price Of the tickets
he had already purchased.
Mr.. Doerfer first denied
newspaper accounts that he
had been a guest aboard the
Storer yacht, Lazy Girl" for
a week. He said later that he
had misunderstood the ques-
tons and admitted he had
spent six nights on the yacht.
"Saw Nothing Wrong"
The FEC chairman told the
committee he saw nothing
wrong in his picking his own
friends as long as he retained
his independent judgment" as
q commissioner.
He repeated this view in his
resignation letter to Mr.. Eisen-
hover.
Mr.. Eisenhower had called
in the FEC chairman for a per-
son-to-person talk on Wednes-
day. Events then moved swiftly
The new FEC chief, a Re-
publican, is a native of Blue
field, w. Va, and a 1884
graduate Of the West Virginia
University Law School. Mr.. Ford
has been a Government lawyer
and official since 1899, except
for wartime service in the Air
Corps.
His selection for the chair
manship was praised by Mr..
Harris as a very good
appointment" Representative
Moss, Democrat of California,
one Of Mr., Doerfer's sharpest
critics on the House committee,
also expressed satisfaction with
the appointment.

Mrs. Neuberger Gets Pledges
Of Full Support for Race

PORTLAND, Greg, Mar. II
(AP),-The widow of Senator
Richard L. Neuberger, in a day
full Of personal drama, entered
the race for her husbands Sen
ate seat late yesterday.
The announcement that she
will seek the full six-year term
came a few hours before pri-
vate funeral services were held
for Senator Neuberger. The
47-year-old Oregon Democrat
died Wednesday of a cerebral
hemorrhage.
After the services, an aide
filed the formal declaration
with the Oregon Secretary Of
State at Salem.
Her decision came Just a day
ahead Of the deadline for filing
for Office. It apparently ended
the possibility Of a party
splitting primary race involv-
ing several Democratic leaders.
She is the only prominent
Democrat now entered.
Decision Difficult
This has been a difficult
decision for me to make in a
time of personal grief" said
Mrs. Neuberger, "but it is a
decision that cannot be de-
layed. I hope it is the right
decision"
Two acknowledgements
tives Edith Green and Charles
Porter-who had been men,
toned as possible rivals for the
Senate seat said they would
support Mrs. Neuberger and not
try for the Office themselves.
If elected, Mrs. Neuberger
would be the second woman in
the Senate. The other is Mar
garet Chase Smith, Republican,
from Maine.
Friends said Mrs. Neuberger
at first rejected the suggestion
that she run. Telephone calls
and kilograms urging her can
didacy piled up at the NGu-
berger residence. Wen Word
came that volunteers Seue c.
rying petitions urging ~ to
run, she finally decided 10 file,
friends said.
The many messages / have
received from across the State
urging me to be a candidate
for the Senate seat occupied by
my husband are a source of
qualification to me. am CRATE
full too for the petitions which
are being circulated on my be-
half" she said.
Ex-School Teacher |,
Foremost in my mind in
reaching this decision is the
thought that I may continue to
serve the ideals and purposes
for which my husband stood
IN the Senate" she added.
Mrs. Neuberger, a school,
teacher until she was married
in 1945, has been elected to
the State Legislature several
times, once leading the Demo-
cratic ticket, including her
husband, in vote-getting.
She played a leading role in

Teen Corner
By DICK CASTILOW

Hi there.
Well, spring has finally set in
and so has spring fever. 1t seems
so dog-gone strange to see the
earth again. Here's a question:
Why is spring fever?
| hope you all enjoyed your
selves as much as | did last Fri
day night | really had a ball The
preparations for the Hop we're diff
ficult and many but with fine,
hard working committees, how
could it fail?
There have been inquiries as to
whether Billy Rice was really Bill
ly Rice. Yes, mann and sir. That
was Billy Rice. Recording artists
do not sing the songs that they
have recorded. They lip sync or
synchronize their lips to their re-
cordings. | felt bad because you
all seemed to think it was faxed.
At any hop Billy Rice goes to he
does exactly what he did up here,
lip sync.
The Marvells we're at a slight
disadvantage because they had but
one mike. But really, they were
great and if they ever come back
| hope we can have two mikes.
We will try to have talent from
Pittsburgh or somewhere else
about once every six weeks or a
month. This will help keep the
monotony of plain record hops to
a minimum.
Bob Oliverio went over very
well with the two numbers he did.
ITO the Aisle" was the best one.
Everyone was quiet and listened
to the words. This is good.
Don't forget Teen club tomorrow
night in the armory I'll have all
the top tunes and we'll have a
ball. See you then.
