Civic Federation
Fetes Mclaughlin

Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin last night received a
vote of thanks from the FEEDER
alton of Civic Associations at
a dinner in the Metropolitan
Baptist Church.
Sterling Tucker, executive di-
rector of the Washington Ur-
ban League, said, "He has not
always been popular, but he
usually has been right"
To state that the Commits
sioner's job has been no bed
of roses" said Mr.. Tucker,
would be an understatement
of considerable magnitude. {.
He is a man whose decisions
and actions are based in prin-
ciple, and he has long since
learned that friends and sup
porters change, but principles
don't"
The federation presented
Commissioner Mclaughlin with
a silver desk cigarette set.

Board Vote
Burs School
Third Year

FARMVILLE, Va, June 10
(AP).-Prince Edward County,
which abandoned public schools
in 1859 to escape court-ordered
desegregation, moved yesterday
to keep them shut for a third
straight year.
The county board of super
visors once more approved a
budget which does not provide
funds for public education. In
stead. the budget earmarks
$285,000 for school tuition
grants.
Such grants have been the
financial props of private,
segregated schools operated for
the county'S white students.
Negro children have had no
schools since the 1958-59 ses-
sion. Negroes have rejected the
proffered help of white leaders
in setting up private schools for
Negroes through use of the tut
ton grants.
The supervisors action yes
terday came in the face of a
suit in U. S. District Court in
Richmond seeking to force re-
opening of the public schools.
Negro plaintiffs have chal-
lenged the constitutionality of
the tuition grants, and the De-
partment of Justice has asked
permission to intervene in the
case as co-plaintiff.
Left standing by the super
visors in the 1961-62 budget
was an ordinance providing tax
credits for people who donate
to the private school founda-
ton for white children. This,
too, is under court assault.
Yesterdays action by the
supervisors followed a morning
hearing, attended by about 80
people, at which three Negroes
and two white persons urged
the restoration of public educa-
ton in the county. Seven white
people commended the board
for its present course.
The tuition grants approved
by the board are available to
all children, white and Negro,
and total $100 per child for
education plus up to $35 for
transportation from county
funds. In addition, pupils are
eligible for up to $3.50 from
State funds.
Over the last year, 1853
pupils applied for the grants
all but five of them white stu
dents. Negroes who applied for
the grants used them for edu-
cation out of the county.

ment officials refused to say
if the clerk had access to
secret information.
Mr.. Covington's wife declined
to say if she believed her hus-
bands disappearance was mott
waited by personal causes only
Maryland, District and Vir-
ginia police broadcast this de-
scription: White. male, S feet Z,
lat pounds, born in Bowling
Green. Va; brown curly hair,
brown hazel eyes, bandages on
back of neck as the result of a
minor operation; last seen wear
ing light blue slacks, gray sports
shirt, blue jacket and dark
shoes.
A Defense Department Off
,cial said the bandages appar-
emily we're the result of an op-
Grafton to remove a cyst.
The official said the clerk
had been on sick leave for two
months after a more serious
operation and reported back to
work on May 81. The clerk
worked June l and then took
off Friday June 2 for addi-
tional medical treatment.
The official said Mr.. Coving-
ton called in sick Monday and
Tuesday and did not report for
work. He said the clerk was
at home Monday night.
The official added that Mrs.
Covington telephoned the secu-
rity agency to learn her hus-
bands whereabouts on WedneS-
day and said he had not been
home Tuesday night. He is
listed by police as missing since
8 am. Tuesday.
The Defense Department
said Mr.. Covington had been

other said he would support a
code barring conflicts of inter-
est by city officials similar to
one enacted by the council COW
ering appointed officials.
Major drawing card of the
evening was the first-time ap-
pearance on the same platform
of Mr.. Bendheim, Democratic
nominee for reelection as
Mayor and his opponent. Frank
E. Mann, Al, former city coun-
Gilman and potato chip manu-
facturer, an independent DEM
ocrat."
The debate never really
started between the Mayor and
Mr.. Mann.
Mayor Bendheim acknowl-
edged yesterday he distributed
several" 500 checks as cam
paign contributions from Wash
ington-area developers Norman
and Sol zipkin, who have prof.
ects in the city, to some council
candidates. The Mayor, who
was silent about the checks last
night, has declined to name the
candidates he gave them to.
The candidates who said last
night they had not been given
the checks are incumbent James
M. Duncan, and Eugene w.
Zimmerman, both Democratic
nominees.
The candidates who told the
group they are involved in no
conflicts of interest are incum-
bent John J. Ewald and John
K. PickenS, Democratic nom
inees, and Edward ]. Gulewicz.
Mayor Bendheim, in response
to a question from the audience,
said he would favor" a code
of ethics for all city officials,
but noted that "the city coun-
Gil has been under such a code
since 1882" when the city char
ter containing it was drafted.
Two Remain Silent
Incumbent F. Clinton Knight,
an independent, and Timothy
SWEET, a Democratic nominee,
who have refused to say
whether they got checks, were
silent on the question last night.
Others who made no COM
ment last night, but who have
told The Star they did not get
checks from the Zipkins are:
Democratic nominees James T.
Luckett, an incumbent; Mr..
Pickens, Mr.. Ewald, Mr.. Bend
helm, along with Mrs. Mildred
Councillor, a Republican, Mr..
Gulewicz, and Mr.. Mann.

Grim Situation if
Tax PIuns FuIter
" GRACE BASSETT
Star Staff Writer

Time today entered the Dis
trict tax picture as a costly
imponderable.
The full Senate District Com
mittee has recommended a
$21.3 million, seven point reve-
nue. program. including a 3
cents per 81 sales tax, a 4 cents
per pack cigarette tax and a
$3.50 per $100 valuation real
estate tax. The Commissioners,
not Congress, have power to
raise property taxes.
But millions of dollars will
be drained off estimated yields
with the passage of each month
in which Congress fails to act.
Imposition of t.xes in July
could swell District revenue by
more than $18 million under
the program. but delay until
August would yield closer to
SIT million, fiscal officers esti-
mate.
S247 Million Revenue
The new tax burden is about
one-fifth of expected annual
revenue from current taxes,
Present yields for the general
fund are STA million. Adding a
proposed Federal loan of SIG
million, a requested Federal
payment of $36 million and the
new taxes of $21.3 million would
raise total revenues to about
$247 million.
This would come within 81
million of closing the gap be-
tween revenues and spending
for the year beginning July l
Without new taxes, Senate
committeeman foreset either a
debt-ridden Nations Capital or
draStically curtailed spending
Senator Morse, Democrat of
Oregon. has vowed to fight the
sales tax on the Senate floor.
House Bill Smaller
In the House, District Com
mittee Chairman Mcmillan,
Democrat of South Carolina,
sees the sales tax as the only
real revenue need of the city.
The House bill, upon which
the Senate committee built its
tax proposal, called for only
the sales tax increase from 2
to 3 per cent, to yield SO million
annually.
The Senate committee for
mula assumes a $36 million
Federal payment along with
tax revenues to put the budget
III UIl6 DlaCk.
Yet, the Federal payment is
fixed by appropriations COM
mittees and Congress, as a
budget item is quite separate
from the tax and Federal pay
ment authorization bill.
The District budget with a
$36 million Federal payment
request. is pending before the
House Appropriations Commit
tee.
Congress has allowed a $25
million Federal payment in the
budget for the year ending
July /.

hopes of a snack of green grass
Since the does all look alike,
it is possible to identify the
mothers only when it is feeding
time. The male deer, whose
antlerS are in full velvet and
tender. takes little interest in
his offspring.
A female Serval kitten was
born recently. was rejected by
the mother and is being raised
in the basement of the Reptile
House by Keeper Gene NAL
iniak. The serval youngster,
which will look like a long
legged leopard when it grows
up, is being fed on formula
milk from a tiny doll bottle
because it doesn't weigh a
pound yet. Servals, incident
ally, have such long legs be-
cause they live in tall grass
areas in Africa and need alti-
tude to spot the game they

There must be a hyperthyroid
stork operating at the Wash
ington Zoo these days.
So many babies have been
born or Matched at the Zoologi-
cal Park in the last couple of
weeks that half the keepers
have found themselves acting
as nurse-maids. That's because
many young animals require a
lot of care and vigilance and
the keeper force. freely gives it.
Here are some examples:
A lamb was born Monday in
the small herd of Rocky Noun
tain Big Horn Sheep, first time
in more than 80 years such a
birth has occurred at the Zoo.
The four adult Big Horns, in
cludlng one ram, are so Spooky,
Zoo officials have done all their
watching with field glasses. Zoo
Director Theodore Reed says
his men have managed to make
sure the lamb is nursing we'll
but have no idea of its gender.
Efforts to photograph the shy
infant have gone for naught.
A baby beaver was born
earlier this week. The beaver
kit is the offspring of a pair
of beavers presented to the Zoo
by Canadian Senate Speaker
Mark Drouin and House of
Commons Speaker Roland
Michener.

A pair of fawns was born in
the European Red Deer herd
less than two weeks ago, raising
the strength of the group to
seven. These are relatively tame
animals and the fawns have
been perfectly willing to meet

Graduates Told

sity Of Maryland graduating
class, said today some colleges
are more interested in sports
than education, and he blamed
laying rah-rah boys" among
the alumni.
In an address at commence
ment exercises at College Park
today, Secretary Hodges said
that through some strange
immature quirk" many college
graduates seek the prestige OF
of association" with a winning
athletic team.
THUS we apply pressure on
the old school to build up its
athletic plant, and the school,
mindful of alumni contribu-
tions, may not be strong enough
to say no."
Urged to "GrOw Up"
Secretary Hodges said "it's
about time the aging rah-rah
boys grow up, and let up"
He said that if they need
to borrow prestige, "let hem
borrow the best there is-the
reputation of a school where
education, quality education,
comes first, last, and always. "
The former North Carolina
Governor spoke in the massive
Cole Activities Building, where
graduate and undergraduate
degrees were conferred upon
1928 students this morning.
1t was the second largest
class in the schools history,
rs under last years class of
1899.
Secretary Hodges received an
honorary doctor of laws degree
at the ceremony as did DR..
Antonio Fernos-Isern, resident
commissioner here for Puerto
Rico.
SeabOrg Gets Degree
DR.. Glenn T. seaborg, chair
man of the Atomic Energy
Commission, was awarded an
honorary doctor of science
degree.
Mr.. Hodges said he played
intercollegiate sports and ia
vors athletics in their proper
place.
But their place is second
ary," he said. And when you
start buying basketball teams
for example, start handing out
scholarships for Drawn and
physical skill rather than brain
and a desire for education, you
are mixing values badly and
heading for trouble"
He said the current scandals
in intercollegiate basketball
have demonstrated again 1.-The
sort of thing that can happen
the gamblers get in, and the
fixes begin"
Educated Minds Needed
Secretary Hodges sadi that
the Nation never before in his
lifetime needed so urgently a
supply OF talented, educated
minds"
Undergraduate degrees went
to 2,038 seniors in today's cere-
mony. Graduate degrees were
conferred upon 785 students.
The black-gowned students
began lining up in Byrd Sta
dium an hour before the 1C
am. ceremony. In a long pro-
ceSsion, they field into the huge
activities building and filled
the floor.
Some 10000 relatives and

on from the stands.

Hill Captures
Denver Golf
BySix Shots

DENVER, Sept. IL (AP).-
Haunted by hometown magic,
the touring golf pros headed to-
day for Seattle after Denver's
Dave Hill pocketed top prize Of
$500 yesterday with a 21-un-
der par performance in the $780,
900 Denver Open.
Hill duplicated the feat the
previous week at Dallas by
Earl Stewart, first home pro
ever to win a PGA tourney.
Hill, a touring pro the last two
years, owns a Denver home but
is not attached to a local club.
But the 24-year-old swinger
acted like he was born and
reared on the par II, 6,843-yard
Meadow Hills course. His final
round SO for a 263 total was six
strokes better than Art Wall
and Bob Goalby, who collected
$2,050 each for runnerup hon.
orS.
Every one of the SO money
winners broke par for the 70
holes over the five-year-old
course that offers little ressit-
ance in the form Of trees, rough
or other hazards.
One golfer hoping for the
hometown influence to con-
tinue for at least another week
is George Bayer, whose home is
Bremerton, 13 miles from the
Broadmoor course in Seattle
Bayer shot 273 here to receive
$3.50 in a three-way tie at
10th.
Asked how the Meadow Hills
course compared with the
Seattle layout, Bayer waved an
arm at the Denver links and
said: "ShuckS, we got shrubs on
the Seattle course that are
bigger than these trees"
Hills $500 payoff was his
second major victory in two
years with the tour. He won the
Tucson Open in a playoff last
winter. His official earnings are
$19, ,282, ranking him 21st among
the PGA money winners
