Fuubus Loses
$50 Million
Bonds Vote

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. June %
(AP) Arkansas voters soundly
defeated the $50 million State
construction bond issue on
which Gov. Orval E. Faubus had
staked his political prestige.
The bonds would have pro-
vided needed construction funds
for State colleges and institu-
tions. Now construction needs
will be tossed back into the lap
of the State Legislature, prob
ably in a special session this
summer.
Electors yesterday apparently
ignored Gov. Faubus' claim that
bond opposition was concen-
trated among integrationistS,
who wanted only to embarasS
him.
The proposal carried only IL
|of Arkansas rs counties. With
returns almost complete, the
vote showed:
For 68.988; against 135.739.
The Faubus family salvaged
one victory yesterday despite
the bond issue defeat. Gov.
Faubus' son. Farrell, a 22-year-
old law student at the Univer-
sity Of Arkansas. was elected
State Representative from
Madison County.
Gov. Faubus campaigned for
the bond proposal as vigorously
as If he were himself seeking
office. He made five television
speeches and numerous personal
appearances.
The integration issue created
little interest. The main ques-
ton was whether the bonds
could be financed without a
new tax.
1t was the second Statewide
defeat for an important meas
ure backed by the Governor.
Gov. Faubus has never lost when
he was himself a candidate.
Last fall he backed a proposed
school closing constitutional
amendment which was defeated

CHANCES IN FAVOR
D.C..SchooIs Hunt d Genius

DR.. Hansen said. He described
himself as not too inclined to
favor separation Of students.
GeniuSes or not, he ex-
planned, super students very
often need the leveling influ-
ence Of more nearly average
folks. Otherwise they may get
too far out and find themselves
unable to communicate.
The decision to identify any
such students among District
youngsters sprang from two re-
cent occurrences.
The first took place yester-
day at a meeting of the school
board committees when q board
member. Rowland F. Kinks,
said the District should do more
in the training Of the mentally
retarded, but not at the ex-
pense Of the youngsters at the
"other end Of the spectrum"
The trouble was that no one
not even DR.. Hansen, knew
whether the District has any
young geniuses. A goodly mum.

There was one hint, how

be no lower than 160-might
be lurking about. A recent sur
vey of District high school
graduates now attending COL
lege shows 13 think the honors
track was not sufficiently chal-
lenging.
The second booster emerged
from the visit today of three
superior students to DR.. Han
sens office. The students-one
girl and two boys-are from
Berkeley, Calf, where the city
honored them recently under
a new program by giving them
scholarships paid for with pub
