If the violation is serious,
the sentence recommended by
the students is apt to be more
severe than the decision al
ready reached by the judge.
The teen-agers, of course, act
only in an advisory capacity
and the final decision must be
Judge Murphey's.
In most traffic cases no ac-
tual sentence is passed. The
youthful defendant is required
to surrender his drivers Ii
cense while the case is con-
tinued. This amounts to a
suspension of driving privileges
from 80 to 80 days yet leaves
the youths record clear.
At the end of the suspension
period the case is dismissed.
Judge Murphey bypassed
school authorities in setting up
the program. He reasoned that
if he went to the principals
it would be regarded as Just
another school assignment.
He went directly to the stu
dent government leaders, and
each week they select the

The request asks the appeals

from the judges acceptance of

After receiving the woman's

No Chance Seen
Of Saving Right

By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER
Associated Press Staff Writer

A State Department spokes-
man indicated today, under
questioning, that the United
States has no hope of saving
any military rights at the
strategic Dhahran air base on
the Persian Gulf through con-
tinued negotiations with Saudi
Arabia.
Press Officer Joseph Reap
told reporters pressing for in
formation on Saudi Arabia S
sudden custer order that there
are no talks underway, and
none is contemplated, on con-
tinuing rights for United States
Government aircraft.
The big base was built by
the United States Is years ago
and is now being converted at
United States expense into a
major international air center
for Saudi Arabia.
SSome behind -the-Scenes dis
agreement developed in the
State Department over whether
or not the loss of military
rights at the base a year from
now would be blow to the
United States.
When Saudi Arabia's decision
not to renew the military base
agreement was disclosed last
night, State Department Off
cials said the United States
had very much wanted to keep
its Dhahran operating rights.
Attitude Changes
Today officials at the State
Department said Dhahran, a
United States-Arab point of
friction in the Middle East for
some years, might have been
dropped by the Kennedy ad-
miniStration anyway as part
of its overall review of the
United States worldwide net

Mr.. Reap told a news confer
ence only that there had been
no decision made by the United
States Government to request

NEW YORK, Mar. II (AP)
A new betting scandal rocked
college basketball today with
the disclosure by the New York
district attorney that two men
had been arrested for paying
players up to $500 for fixing
games.
The two men arrested were
Aaron Wagman, also known
as Al Wagner and Al Williams.
and Joseph Hacken, both of
New York. The office of Dis
trict Attorney Frank S. Hogan
described them as part of a
Nationwide syndicate in which
bookmakers were victimized.
They were charged with con-
spiracy to bribe basketball
players. Wagman also was
accused of trying to bribe a
detective.
Both have been involved in
previous sports fix caSeS-one

Two Players Identified
Peter D. Andreoli, assistant
district attorney, said a Con-
necticut player had received
$500 to shave points in a
game against Colgate at Ham
ilton, N. Y. on March l and
two Seton Hall players alleg-
edly got $1,000 apiece" in a
game against Dayton at Madi-
son Square Garden on Febru-
ary 8.
He identified the Seton Hall
players as Henry Gunter of
New York, a center, and Arthur
Hicks of Chicago, a forward.
Both were questioned but not
detained.
The Connecticut player was
not named.
A police source said the lat
est scandals may touch IS to
20 colleges. including at least
three in New York.
The scope will dwarf the COL
lege basketball scandals of 1850
and 1851, the informant added!
Father Edward Fleming, vice
president of Seton Hall, said:
"The university will take no
action until we receive further
information from the district
attorneys office"
Colgate, Dayton Won
Colgate beat Connecticut,
1911, in the game under in

Seton Hall at the Garden, 112-

Dayton was listed as a 6-point
favorite when the game was

board, but later the game was
knocked off, meaning that
bookmakers had become suspi-

any more bets.
The Connecticut-C Colgate con-

Moderate and liberal Repub-

tacking conservative spokes-
man Barry Goldwater'S state
ment that Republicans should
quit trying" to win Negro
votes.
The controversy erupted as a
task force of the Republican

mapping plans for a G. o. P,
comeback in the big cities.
In a memorandum prepared
for the task force, New York's
Republican Chairman L. Jud-
son Morhouse, a political
spokesman for Gov. Nelson A.
Rockefeller. launched an open
attack on the views of Senator
Goldwater, Arizona Republican
Mr.. Morhouse quoted the
conservative lawmaker as say
ing. "The Republican Party has
not attracted Negro voters. II
is time to admit we can not get
them and other minorities as a
bloc so let's quit specifically
trying to get these groups as a

Red-Bucked
Offensive

VlENIlANE, Laos, Mar. II
(AP).-The United States has
stepped up. its military aid to,
the pro-Western Laotian gov
ernment'S army to meet the
new threat of the Soviet-sup-
piled Pathet Lao rebels, a
reliable source reported today.
The source, whose identity
cannot be disclosed, said the
United States is sending more
rifles and ammunition that
previously, as well as more
shoes, uniforms, rice and pc
troleum products.
The exact amounts Of the in
crease are not available. But
the source said no new or
unusual types of weapons are
being supplied.
The staff of United States
military men in civilian cloth
ing training the Royal Laotian
Army also has been doubled,
from 100 men previously 10
about 200 now.
In Washington, the United
States acknowledged today it
has increased the number of
Americans administering aid
to the royal Lao government
but said there has been no sud-
den new Step-up in arms to the
royal army.
Estate Department Press Of
ficer Lincoln White empha-
sized that the United States
will not engage in an arms
race in Laos to match a Com
munist buildup for pro-Commu-
mist rebel forces.
(Mr White reminded news
men that President Kennedy
and Secretary of State Rusk
have both declared the United
States is determined to back
the royal Lao government to
the hilt."
(Mr. White refused to spell
out specifically what military
aid the United States is now
providing)
Answer to Offensive
Earlier this week sources in
Washington indicated the
United States Government was
considering pouring more mill
tary aid into Laos. But the
Kennedy administration was
reported reluctant to do this
for fear it would be drawn into
a sustained buildup of both
sides that could develop into
a Korea-like situation.
But sources in Vientiane re-
port that United States Am
bassador Llewellyn Thompson,
at his meeting with Soviet
Premier KhruShchev in Siberia
last week, told Mr.. Khrushchev
if the Soviets choose to keep
the Laotian crisis alive rather
than help resolve it peacefully,
the United States is ready to
ship three guns to the royal
government for every two the

established an Oratory of st.
Philip Neri whose members
will work among Catholic stu
dents at non.C Catholic colleges
in the area.
The Oratory is a society of
diocesan priests living under
obedience in community but
without special vows. One of
the best-known of all Orator.
ians was John Henry Cardinal
Newman, 10Th century British
convert churchman.
Cardinal Newman at one
time planned to establish an
Oratory at Oxford University.
Though he was not success
full, his idea helped inspire
the Newman Club apostolate
to Catholic students on non

Two laymen will begin
