Students Coll Off
Plons for Sit-Ins
On D.. S. Route 40

BALTIMORE. Nov. IL (AP) i,
More than 200 white and
Negro students called off today
any plans for sit-in demonstra-
tons along U. S. Route 40. and
determined instead to cover the
City OF Baltimore in protesting
segregation in public places.
After a meeting in the
Cornerstone Baptist Church on
Bolton street in Old Baltimore
the participants broke into
groups to pay visits to about so
predetermined areas of the city.
The Rev. Logan Kearse, pas
tor of the church, and leader
of the demonstrators. told the
group:
I'VE honor the commitment
by national CORE Congress of
Racial Equality not to DEM
onstrate on U. s. Route 40"
Demonstration Cancelled
CORE had called off a
planned massive demonstration
along U. S. 40.
However, at the end of the
meeting he instructed various
groups to gather in the base
ment for instructions about sit
| ms in Baltimore proper.
Meanwhile a group of Segre-
gationists-the Maryland Petit
ton Committee-assembled on
the highway just outside Balti-
more for a projected peaceful
parade upholding the right OF
restaurant owners to serve only
those they pleased.
At the church rally. Julius
w. Hobson. Eastern director OF
CORE, told the group:
Your demonstration in Bal
timore today is timely. 1t was
/ timely yesterday and it Is time
| " today. II you need legal help,
CORE will give it to you. II
you need financial help, CORE
will be glad to give it."
Attorneys Available
Mr.. Kearse told the assembly
| the National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People
had % lawyers on hand to pro-
vide legal service. He added
cash and property had been
pledged for bonds, If necessary
About a third of the persons
assembled in the church were
white. The students came from
Howard and Catholic Univer-
sites in Washington, and Nor
gan State and Goucher Col
leges in Baltimore. There APP
peared to be a scattering OF
others from Pennsylvania and
New York.
/ Just before the meeting
ended, Mr.. Kearse read the fol-
lowing telegram which he said
was being sent to Gov. Tawes
I'VE recognize and appre-
ciate the promised indignation
of some of the public facilities
on U. S. Route 40. However, we
cannot be satisfied with any
thing less than the total elimi-
nation Of all racial injustice in
our society.
This racial discrimination is
insufferable. We have resolved
to challenge it in any form. at
any place. at any time; and we
resolve to challenge such dis
elimination in the restaurants
Of Baltimore today.
"As citizens of the United
States Of America. we consider
this action our clear duty
and we trust that you, sir. will
see as your duty the elimina-
ton of public segregation. by
law, forthwith.

Contract After
Race Protest

The National AeronauticS
and Space Administration is
taking a good long look" at
its recent award of a contract
to a New Orleans construction
firm headed by a strong segre-
gationist, a spokesman said to-
day.
I'VE are reviewing all the
records and procedures" fol-
lowed in the October IL con-
tract award to Gurtler-Hebert
& Co.. Inc, he said.
Controversy has arisen be-
cause Martin Gurtler, a top Of
ficial Of the company, took an
extreme position in fighting
against desegregation of New
Orleans schools.
A spokesman for President
Kennedy'S Committee on Equal
Employment Opportunity said
NASA had been asked to check
into the case and report back
He said NASA's attention had
been directed to what was
called a hate letter allegedly
written by Mr.. Gurtler last
year.
Clause in Contracts
The presidential committee
has the duty of enforcing the
anti-discrimination clause in
Government contracts. In case
of flagrant violation Of the
clause. the committee can order
cancellation of contracts.
NASA officials here said they
had little information about
the contract, which was han.

Flight Center, Huntsville, Ala
A spokesman at Huntsville said
officials there were discussing
and studying" the contract.
Gurtler-Hebert won the con.
tract against five competitors
for rehabilitation of a plant
for manufacture of the first
stage Of the Saturn booster
The Huntsville spokesman saio
the contract was negotiated
without competitive bids.
Cost About S666,OOO
He said Gurtler-Hebert esti-
mated the projects cost al
about S666,000. including q
fixed fee. The fee will remair

strictly followed presidential

however.
Shock Wave Felt Here
The Soviet blast took on the
aspect of a coSmic event when
the Weather Bureau reported
detecting its shock wave at the
National Airport station at 10
O'Clock yesterday morning. This
was a little less than seven
hours after the blast, which
occurred about 5000 miles air
line from Washington.
DR.. Harry Wexler, the Wea-
ther Bureaus research chief
said the pressure wave noted
here was not strong enough tt
do any physical damage or ever
alter the weather. But he sale
that events do not often mani
fest themselves at such a dis
tance.
This pressure wave ha.
been observed on previous oc-
casions, such as the Krakatoa
volcanic eruption of 1882 and
the great Siberian meteor (im-
pact) of 1908," DR.. Wexler said
Other Weather Bureau sta
tions. such as Seattle and
Charlotte. N. c.. also recorded
the shock wave. Eventually
when all records are brought
together, DR.. Wexler said, the
size Of the bomb probably can
be calculated by computing the
amount Of energy it put into
the atmosphere.

chain and one as at Point Bar
row in the extreme north of the

The Aleutian station should
get the first traces of fallout

However. the Public Health
Service said first indications
from the new station may not
be completely reliable. 1t is
in a "shakedown" status that
will last a couple of weeks.
Reports on the super-bomb's
cloud said it was taking a more
northerly course than that of
the 25-megatonner last week.

from last weeks 25-megaton
bomb, according to PHS. Fall
out levels at Anchorage, Fair
banks and Juneau are from
three to seven times above nor
NAL, but are still quite low by
comparison with readings noted
in the United States last month.
A peak reading of 709 fall
out units was recorded at Little
Rock, Ark, on September 20,
after a series of low-to-medi-
um-yield atomic tests in the
Soviet Union. This compares
with a high of three-and-a-half
units at Anchorage Saturday.
No "even reasonably high level"
have been recorded in the
United States this month, PHS
declared.
Due in Spring
Fallout will start being a ma
jor concern in this country
next spring, when rains begin
to wash radioactive particles
out of the upper atmosphere.
The chief fallout worries at
that time will be the bone-seek-
ing strontium-90 and cesium-

threat to future generations be-
cause of its ability to cause
genetic changes in sex cells.

 He said later that his feet felt as if a hot candle were being held to them constantly. He said his boots had shrunk due to Wetness and the cold.
 After all their struggles to reach the top of the peak, what did they do and what could they see at the summit?
 "The Winds," Canali said, cover ing his face with his hands to illustrate his point" was horrible The temperature was 31 degrees below zero.
 The climbers spent no more than IS minutes on top, not even taking pictures, then set off down the same difficult route.
 Once the climbers had struggled back to their base camp, thaWed out supplies to get something edible and recovered a bit from the strain on the slopes, they started to move Canali toward their scheduled rendezvous with bush pilot Don Shelton by tow ing him in a piece of canvas.
 After three or four hours of this, they were spotted by Shel- don, who landed on the mountain at the 10,000-foot mark and flew Canali back to Anchorage.
 Wednesday, wrapped in white, sterile sheets, Canali, Perego and Arroldi had only their boards and frostbite to mark them as men of the mountain.

 President Kennedy asked We'd nesday for more personnel in the armed forces, and overnight the most closely scrutinized card in the nation became the notice of classification" issued by the Se- letive Service System.
 Telephones calls began to flood the sWitchboards of draft boards in every state, county, city and hamlet.
 The American male wanted to know just where he stood in the Presidents plans to beef up the armed forces.
 Thousands of others, apparent ly resigned to their IA classifi cation, sought out the armed forces recruiting centers. They wanted to know what was being offered to the enlistee.

ANCHORAGE R - Bitter cold, technical problems and shrieking wind were the unholy trinity six Italian mountain climbers had to conquer on Mt. McKinley's south face.
 That they stood off the elements and scaled the peak over here tofore unclimbed route is class ic example in determination.
 Gian Canali, who with climb ing mates Romano Perego and Luigi Arroldi now lies in Provi- dence Hospital suffering from frostbite, said, through an inter preter, that the struggle up the nearly-vertical wall was tougher than any climbing the experienced Italians had in the Alps.
 Others in the party who fared better physically were the party leader Riccardo Cassin, Luigi Alip- pi and Annibale Zucchi.
 On Mckinley the climbers fought the mountain for 13 days on the ascent, with only three of those days being adequate for any sustained climbing. Count ing the descent, they were away from the relative comfort of their base camp for almost three weeks.
 They gained only 500 meters vertically (about 1,600 feet in the first five days of ascending the south face.
 "We had to use every artificial means for climbing known. We had to battle ice and snow crests, plus the weather and wind. The latter part of the climb was very difficult, but it was easier than the first" Canali said.
 The party had virtually no food from the time it left Camp 3, around 18,000 feet until it scaled the summit and returned to the base camp at about 11,000 feet, Canali said. This part of the journey took some five to six days, with the climbers huddled in two tiny tents at Camp while a blizzard ragged for 30 hours during their descent.
