School officials have forbidden

students are shopping for a
place to hold their graduation

use of school facilities after a
mass skip day" outing at the

About Al per cent of the 645

Hyattsville school spent
Wednesday at three beaches

beled the event "senior skip

sion as far as school officials
are concerned.
Extra Penalty Imposed
Upon their return Thursday

their punishment meted out by
Principal Raymond R. Reed
over the public address sys-
tenn. The June 10 graduation
dance at the school was off.

Mr.. Reed said today there
had been rumors of the skip
day before Wednesday. and
students inquiring about it
were told they would be
charged with an unexcused alb
sence. The additional penalty
of the dance cancellation was
imposed because the skip day
constituted group action and
was considered a more severe
act of misconduct, the prin-
cipal said.

comment that he gathered
that my invitation was lost
somewhere along the way"
Mr.. Goodwin and his running
mates on the organization
backed ticket for the July IL
primary, A. S. Harrison, jr.,
for Governor, and State Sem
ator Robert Y. Button for at
torney general, were on the
formal program along with T.
Munford Boyd, candidate for
attorney general who is a
ticket-mate of Boothe and
gubernatorial candidate A. E.
S. Stephens.
Hard Hitting Address
In a free-swinging address,
Mr.. Boothe hit out at Mr..
Goodwin in particular and the
Harrison Godwin-Button ticket
generally, on the States right
to-work law, unemployment,
education and party loyalty.
Mr.. Boothe spoke next-to-
last on the program and ap-
parently failed to arouse the
hackles of the only candidate
to follow him-Mr. Harrison.
The gubernatorial candidate
repeated for the audience of rs
the program he has outlined at
previous stops to promote edu-
cation, industrial development
and tourism in Virginia. He
made no direct reply to Mr..
Boothe.
Mr.. Goodwin, in an earlier
talk. had pledged to work if
elected for preservation of Vir-
ginia's right-to-work law. And,
in reference to his record on
school closings, he said he sup
ported massive resistance" in
order ito buy time until "the
problem of integratlon could
be met with dignity"
Great Progress Cited
Mr.. Button told the rally
that Virginia has made great
progress in public education
since World War II ended and
that one item of proof is that
teachers salaries have gone up
73 per cent since then while
State appropriations for schools
have increased from $50 mil
lion to 1925 million annually.
Mr.. Boyd, like Mr.. Boothe,
denied the right-to-work law
is an assue in the campaign be-
cause, he said, all candidates
favor it. He denied, too, what
he said was the inference of
the Harrison ticket that the
Stephens slate would spend
freely and raise taxes.
Mr.. Boothe leveled most of
his unexpected attack at Mr..
Goodwin.
He quoted Mrs Goodwin as

Il say for the sake of our
schools, thank heaven he sure

declared.
Voting Record Hit
Senator Goodwin voted fol-
every bill which permitted the
closing of the public schools in
Virginia. He voted for the bills
cutting off State funds to the
localities. He voted for the bill
which gave the Governor pow
er to keep the schools of a To-

Party Loyalty an Issue

at Mr.. Goodwin on the issue oi
party loyalty in this southwest
Virginia 9th district which was
one of only three in the State
to go for John F. Kennedy last
fall.
He quoted Mr.. Goodwin as

HoIuby Indicates
New Rood Could
Flank U. S. FuciIity

The Government probably
would be glad" to give Vir-
ginia the right.of-way for a
dual divided highway along the
access road to Dulles Interna-
tional Airport.
This opinion was expressed
yesterday by Federal Aviation
Administrator N. E. Halaby in
response to what he called
"unremitting efforts" to put
local traffic on the high-speed
access road.
Early this week, Senator
Schoeppel, Republican of Kan
sas, asked Congress to make
the 18-mile road a toll highway
to help pay its $l4.2 million
cost.
Mr.. Halaby told a news con-
ference yesterday that the
"airlines and we the FAA)
and the airline passenger are
very anxious" that the almost
completed road remain exactly
what it was intended-a linn
tied access, high-speed high
way. He added that the De-
fense Department also prefers
that it remain limited.
Would Defeat Purpose
Fairfax County has made re-
cent moves to have the road
way opened to local traffic, but
the FAA contends that such a
move would defeat the very
purpose for which it was in
tended-to cut travel time TO
and from the airport.
Under a "dual-dual" highway
concept, the Government pur-
chased a 400-foot right-of-way,
built its access road in the
center and left room for addi-
tional lanes on either side for
local traffic should the need
arise.
IF Virginia came forward
with vigor," Mr.. Halaby said,
I'm sure the Government
would have a generous re-
sponse" in turning over the
extra right-of-way. Incl
dentally," he said, ''it would be
expensive to build this (extra)
highway"
Money for One Hangar
Commenting on yesterdays
action by the House Appro-
priations Committee in tack
ing $6 million on the FAA's
request for Dulles airport
funds, the administrator said
the extra money will build one
hangar.
In all, the House voted the
FAA $26.1 million, then made
it clear that no more costs
will be considered. If ap-
proved by Congress, the addi-
tional appropriation will send
the total Dulles cost to about
Sill million.
Mr.. Halaby said he had tried
without success to interest the
airlines in building their own
hangers. The Government paid
for hangers at National Air
port and is now realizing about
100000 in annual rental fees
from airline occupants.
Estimate Unchanged
He clarified recent reports
on Dulles Airport costs, saying
his reference to a possible SITS
million referred to the "ulti-
mate" airport in 1875. That is
about the same estimate made
more than a year ago.
He said he does not consider
the SITS million "Scandalously
high" and cited Idlewild's
more than 5000 million" cost
thus far and the $3.50 million
spent for the Los Angeles in
ternational airport after earlier
estimates of $105 million.
Answering earlier eport S
that the Dulles terminal would
have no space for customs IA
cilities, Mr.. Haiaby pointed out
that space will be available on
the ground level of the build
ing.

Gas Firms
Strike in
Second Day

The Washington Gas Light
Co. strike went into its second
day today with no sign of a
break in the wage dispute dead
lock.
A spokesman for the Federal
M e diation and Cancellation
Service said no bargaining ses-
sions are scheduled over the
week end.
The utility's primary labor
force, 1900 maintenance and
production workers, walked out
at 1901 am. yesterday after
negotiations reached a stalemate
Thursday.
The gap between the last
offer made by the company-a
total 9 per cent pay boost in
two years-and the last pro-
poSal made by union negotia-
tors was fractional.
Recommendation Prepared
According to Francis j. Tebbs,
president of Local 63 of the
International Chemical Work
erS Union, the unions Nego-
tiating Committee has indicated
it would recommend acceptance
of 1912 per cent total pay in
crease in the two-year period.
Union picketS resumed their
patrols at six company installa-
tions in the Metropolitan Area
today. The union reported
that eight pickets maintained
an all-night vigil at the utility's
downtown headquarters at 100
H street NV.
Yesterday morning. nine
hours after the maintenance
workers walkout. the COM
pany's 560-man office workers
union voted, by a narrow mar
gin, to accept the 9 per cent
pay package rejected by the
maintenance men.
Some Cross Lines

the office workers local, to-
day estimated that about half

that more than three-quarterS
of the clerical workers returned
to their jobs after their meet
ing yesterday morning.
The utility'S 9 per cent offer
would provide a 5 per cent pay
increase this year, an addi-
tional 312 per cent next June /.
and an immediate y per cent
increase applied to fringe bene-
fits. Union negotiators indi-
