YIslT TO WASHINGTON
Touring Students
Have Dull Nights

The advertised lavish Broad
way revue" seemed like a tired
vaudeville show 10 the young
sters. The dance music began,
but within minutes 1t stopped,
the lights vent on and some
one said this way OUT At
.8;55 the group was out on
the street mingling with at
least 800 other students who
were waiting to get inside.
1t should be pointed out that
no drinks were served with the
$3.50 dinner, thereby cutting
OF the major source of profit
for most restaurants. The only
way to make money on student
dinners is by a fast turnover,
one manager said.
With the evening still young,
the Ohio group Joined other
wandering teen-agers. Some
went to the movies while others
walked down F street, window
shopping. Most went back to
the hotel too full of energy to
go to sleep.
1t was at this point that Negro
students in the Ohio group en-
countered the only racial trou-
bic on their trip. A few of them
were cornered on the second
floor of the hotel by white stu
dents from a Southern school.
Fellow students from Ohio
ran to the aid of their class
mates. The situation calmed
down as the Southerners found
they were up against the en-
tire. Ohio senior class.
Some hotels are policed by
private protection firms during
the school tour season. A
spokesman for one organization
said his men try to keep order
in the hotel without giving the
students the impression that
Big Brother is watching"
only when they start throw
ing things out the windows OF
cause a commotion do we in
terfere, he added. The guards
are informed about the curfew
hour for each group and also
try to help the chaperons
maintain discipline.
Not all of the student groups
have difficulty planning night
activities.
One class had a good time
on a moonlight cruise down
the Potomac to Marshall Hall
Amusement Park.
The hour-long boat ride
gave the teen-agers a chance
to dance.
At Marshall Hall the STU
dents found a uniformed guard
stationed at the entrance to a
fenced-off section containing
slot machines. No students
are allowed in that area.
Many of the teen-agers in
terviewed said they feel Wash
ington has little to offer after
dark. Several asked why the
Washington Monument and
museums are closed at sun
down. Others wondered about
the possibility of the city offer
ing jazz concerts or supervised
dances.
Generally, by the time they
were ready to leave for home,
they felt they had had a good
time" in the city. But many
had serious reservations.

The long-silenced wheels in

Senator Kennedy plans to
use Maryland as a clincher or
a recouping ground.
This was the statement
of Representative Mcdonald.
Democrat of Massachusetts,
who pinch-hit for Senator Ken
nedy last night at a rally in
nearby Maryland.
Mr.. Mcdonald said that if
Senator Kennedy does well in
West Virginia's primary May
10 "he will nail down the NOM
ination here in Maryland"
IF anything should happen
and he does not get as many
votes as we thought in West
Virginia then Maryland will
give him a chance to show that
West Virginia was just an iso-
lated State"
Senator Kennedy is a heavy
favorite in the May II Mary
land presidential preferential
primary where his only sub
stantial opposition is from
Senator Morse of Oregon.
Senator Kennedy plans to
wage a strong campaign in
MARYLAND during the week be-
tween the West Virginia and
Maryland primaries. Mr.. Nc

have been at the Maryland
meeting last night if he hadn't

Taking time out from the
ballot counting in the District
primary last night, Senator
Morse said at the Maryland
rally at Adelphi Mill in Prince
Georges County that he, too,
plans a vigorous campaign in
Maryland.
Senator Morse said he is "a

to go into the Los Angeles con-

Washington for their senior
class trips each year.
In the daytime, they are oc-
cupied with sightseeing. But
at night they are generally free
to do as they please.
What do they do and where
do they go? To find the
answer, The Star sent a re-
porter to join various class
groups.
Although most of them are
accompanied by teachers or
tour directors, many are un-
chaperoned.
The latter are of special con-
cern to Capt. John S. Hughes,
commanding officer of the first
precinct.
Capt. Hughes and his men
have visited hotels, restaurants
and taverns in the precinct,
asking owners not to serve beer
and wine to the students, even
If they produce proof they are
1S. The owners do not have to
comply. but most do.
Extra policemen are on the
streets and juvenile squad de-
tectives give special attention to
touring student groups. The
police have the delicate task of
keeping the youngsters safe
without interfering with their
freedom.
Some students, finding no
action" in the downtown area,
seek cab drivers for informa-
ton.
Two students from Virginia
were promised a ride to the
outskirts of Baltimore, where
there are plenty of live joints" 4"
They said they later discovered
they were let out near Hyatts-
vile, but not before paying the
cab driver $12 for a one-way
ride.
1t cost them $4.26 each for
four beers, a turkey sandwich
and potato chips, they said.
There wasn't enough money
left for a bus ride back to
Washington. so we thumbed a
ride back" one 17-year-old re-
ported.
Not all complaints of mis-
treatment come from groups
whose evenings have not been
planned.
Some whose activities have
been prearranged also have
been keenly disappointed. A
typical example was a group of

Cincinnati.
Along with at least II other
out-of-town groups totalins
more than 572 students, they
squeezed into a downtown night
spot. Most sat at long tables;

effort.
He also said the Naval Pro-
pellant Plant at Indian Head
is employing more people now
than when he took office be-
cause he insisted it could be
used in development of modern
missiles.
Expects Pay Raise
Mr.. Lankford said he believes
Congress will pass a pay raise
for Government employees de-
spite adverse administration
statements. He said Govern
ment employees had received a
raise during his tenure and said
it was due in large part to his
efforts.
He also said he is a winner"
and that the Democratic Party
needs a winner in November"
Mr.. Martin. carrying his
three-cornered hat which he
said symbolizes the principles
Of the founding fathers, also
made a strong plea for the Gov
ernment worker vote. He said
the Government worker is in
the position of being a per
ennial beggar." He said an
"escalator clause" is needed
which would bring Federal pay
up automatically with cost-of-
living increases.
Mr.. Martin also hit hard at
gambling-an issue which he
has made a major point in his
campaign. He said Mr.. Lank-

Decline Forecast
IN Form Wealth
By the Associated Press

The Agriculture Department
says farm wealth is likely to
continue next year a decline
that set in this year.
This wealth-as represented
by equities in farm real estate,
machinery. other equipment,
crops. livestock and other per-
sonal property-had reached a
record high of $179.3 billion at
the beginning Of this year. The
figure is expected by the de-
partment to go down to $173.6
billion by next January /.
A softening in farm land
values was said to be the prin-
cipal factor in this decline.
Farm income itself in 1860 is
expected to equal or possibly
exceed that Of last year.
