Justice 10 Get
Plea on Rider
BY the Associated Press

The American Civil Liberties
Union said today it will request
the Supreme Court to invoke q
rarely used power of habeas
corpus tomorrow to free q
freedom rider" jailed by Mis-
siSsippi.
ACLU headquarters in New
York said that should the
habeaS corpus writ be granted,
it would clear the way to free
all Freedom Riders now in jail
in Mississippi.
A New York lawyer, William
Kunstler, said that he will file
a direct application for habeas
corpus with Justice Hugo Black
asking freedom for Miss Eliza
beth Wycoff, As, of New York
City.
Miss Wyckoff was ardested in
June on a Freedom Ride for
preaching the peace. She is in
Parchman State Penitentiary
scheduled for release August Is
Mr.. Kunstler said that the
last direct application to the
Supreme Court for a writ of
habeaS corpus was more than
go wears ago.
In that case the court said !:
For the purpose of redreSsing
assumed violations of the Con-
stitution and Of laws of the
United States, the Jurisdiction
OF other competent courts to
afford relief may not be passed
by and the original Jurisdiction
OF this court be invoked in the
absence of exceptional condi-
tionS to justify such course"
The unusual conditions, Mr..
KunStler said. are Miss Wyck-
offs prospective release August
Is and what the ACLU called
MisSiSSippi's breach of national
policy by segregating interstate
facilities.

Ex-PiIot Novigotes Boot
Through Niagara Rapids

QUEENSTON, Ontario, July
"a (AP).-A former pilot in a
metal rescue boat was trapped
for four hours in the whirlpool
in the Niagara gorge yesterday
but succeeded in voyaging
from below the falls to Queens
ton.
Ray Weaver, 90, denied he
was in trouble on his eight
mile. 61a-hour, trip except
when his small outboard motor
quit in the giant whirlpool
which spun him about for
hours.
But he was questioned by
police after he landed at the
Queenston dock. He was re-
leased, but police said charges
could still be made against
him. He could be charged
under the Niagara Parks Com
mission Act for causing a
crowd to congregate. The act
is aimed at discouraging
stunts that could be fatal.
Last week William A. Fitz-
gerald of New York was fined
500 when he went over the
falls in a rubber-coated steel
ball.
Mr.. Weaver launched his
completely enclosed metal
craft at 6 am. to test its rescue
capacity. He shot through the
rapids above the whirlpool in
about Is minutes and then was
caught in the giant whirling
current a mile below the falls.
A helicopter failed to blow him
out of the eddy with an air
blast from it's rotors. Finally
the boat shot free and onto
the beach on the Canadian
side.
Mr.. Weaver launched his
beat again before police could
reach him and continued his
voyage through the rapids
below the whirlpool.

On December 80 the outgoing Eli

packers to add 1919 moisture to
smoked hams and other pork products.
Before that, no packer shipping inter-

weighed more than its fresh uncured
weight. USDA held no public hear

became effective two days after it
was issued.

Author Lorraine Hansberry had

Oh Broadway, or anywhere else in

his race to stage a drama on

The story of the play has to do
with a Negro family, a poor but
proud one, five generations re-
moved from days of slavery, living
