This message comes to you
from the Department of the Ar

through all the various military
channels and through Sgt. Ed
ward Quelch, local Army Re-

Army authorities are in full
agreement with parents and

school diploma is practically es-
sential to a young man with
ambition. The Army, realizing
the importance of education and
educational opportunities, has,
itself, instituted an educational
program which is unparalleled
The only thing needed for you
to grow through education in
the Army is the desire on your
part for more education. The
Army gives you every encour-
agement to carry your studies
as far as you desire.
With the Army running such
an extensive educational pro-
gram itself, you might be tempt
ed to ask, "Why, then, are you
advising me to stay in school?'
The simply this. The
better educated, the more quail
fled and further advanced you
are when you enlist in the Unit
ed States Army, the higher level
of training for which you quail
fly. This is why we say, have
that high school diploma in your
hip pocket when you start to
think seriously about enlisting
In the Army, as in civilian
life, you stand to gain a great
deal by completing your high
school studies. Keep this impor-
tant fact in mind and don't jump

Ralph E Arble and Mrs. Lii

Sit-In Attorney Cited
Twice for Contempt

LYNCHBURG, Va, April 5
(AP) P).-Negro defense counsel
Leonard w. Holt, jr., of Nor
folk was twice held in con-
tempt of court today as the
appeals trial of II Negroes
charged with trespassing as
the result of sit-in demonstra-
tons opened in Corporation
Court.
Judge S. Duval Martin held
that Mr.. Holt was grossly
contemptuous" when he made
a motion that the judge dis
qualify himself since he would
not abolish segregation in the
courtroom.
A few minutes before, Judge
Martin held Mr.. Holt in con-
tempt for implying that the
court was aiding and abetting"
the Commonwealth because the
court clerks office permitted
the designation of Negro to be
placed by the names, of Negroes
selected for the jury panel.
The judge delayed imposing
penalties until the end Of the
trial.
Judge Martin explained that
only the spectators were segre-
gated in the courtroom and
that this was in the interest of
order and quietnesS.
The judge dismissed a mo-
.tion to abolish segregation in
the courtroom just before Mr..
Holt moved that the judge dis
qualify himself.
Mr.. Holt contended that the
designation of Negroes on the
jury panel enabled Common
wealth Attorney Royston Jester
III to strike these names from
the panel when the jury was
being chosen.
The judge also overruled Mr..
Holt when he asked that IA
questions be asked the jurors

Prince Edward Given
Negro School Costs

Prince Edward County, Va,
today appeared to be making
preparations to cope with a
situation resulting from a pos
sible Federal Court order to
reopen its public schools.
This developed as School
Supt. T. j. McIlwaine sub
mitted to the school board for
the first time an estimate of
what it would cost to operate a
public school system attended
by 1900 pupils.
That is the approximate
number of Negro children who
were enrolled at the time
schools were closed in the
1889 term. Very noticeably,
the estimate does not take into
account approximately 1,5OO
white children then enrolled,
who since have been attending
a private school system oper-
ated by the Prince Edward
School Foundation.
One of Three Budgets
The cost estimate of S427, 900
to operate an 1,8OO-pupil
school system was one of three
proposed budgets submitted by
the superintendent to the
school board.
Mr.. McIlwain said the figures
were submitted for information
purposes only on the advice of
attorneys for the School Board
A further hearing is sched-
uled in Federal District Court
in Richmond Monday on suit
by Negro plaintiffs attempting
to force the county to reopen
its public school system. Me-
groes have been without public
school facilities, but about 600
OF them have been attending
training centers,' during the
last two years.

Only a handful Of Negroes
have applied for State tuition
grants to attend non-sectarian
private schools or public schools
in \ other communities. All
white children attending the
foundation school system have
received the grants.
tate-LOcal Grants
The grants. paid for by the
State and the locality were
made available under Gov.
Almonds freedom of choice"
school program designed to
prevent forced attendance at
integrated public schools.
While Mr.. McIlwaine's budget
estimates made no reference to
race, his letter of transmittal
to the school board had this to
say:
Conditions which have ex-
listed in the county during re-
cent years make it clear to
anyone familiar with the stu
alton that if public schools are
operated, a very large number
Of the children Of school age
will not attend them"
His budget for an l,800-pupil
school system listed the total
cost at $427,000, of which the
county's share would be $780,
600 and the balance paid by
the State.
At full operation attended by
all Of the county's 1891 stu
dents (both white and Negro)
the schools would cost $846, TOO.
He offered a third budget for
$8l6,700 for educational pur-
poses" or tuition grants which
would be available for all chill
dren If no public schools are
operated.
The three budgets were re-
ferred to the School Boards

Poncoost Trails As Newcomer
Leads Primary in Alexandra
BY JOHN NEARY'
Star staff Writer

A surprise turn-about Demo-
cratic primary in Alexandria
yesterday swept out of office a
former election favorite as a
newcomer led the race.
Joseph M. PancoaSt, incum-
bent Vice Mayor, high among
the winners in the last two pri-
marieS, trailed a field of eight
candidates seeking six council
seats yesterday. He was 148
votes behind first-time candi-
date James N. HaNnan, who
also lost.
In first place was Eugene w.
Zimmerman, 46-year-old cleo
trical contractor and former
president of the city's Chamber
Of Commerce, who polled more
than 800 votes over his closest
competitor in a race that drew
only about 5,100 voters.
Victorious incumbentS are
James T. Luckett, jr.; John j.
Ewald and James M. Duncan,
jr.
In addition to Mr.. thinner
man, the other victorious new
comers are Timothy SWEET, A,
an insurance man and an un-
successful nominee in 1858, and
John K. Pickens, AZ, a Wash
ington attorney. The six nomi-
nees will run in the June 13
general election.

School Head
Must Decide
On Negroes

The Falls Church school
board refused to act last night
on two applications from Negro
students to enter the city's all
white schools and turned the
job Of passing on them over to
Supt. Irwin H. Schmitt.
Over the strong objections of
member H. P. Strople. the
board delegated to the super
intendent the decision on the
two applicants along with all
other placement Of pupils en-
tering the city's schools for the
first time or transferring within
the system.
Mr.. Schmitt would give no
definite date for his decision
on the two applications, but
said it will be "as soon as pos
sible."
The c1ty'S first two Negro
applicants are a 6-year-old boy
seeking entry to Madison Ele-
mentary Schools first grade
and a girl applying for the 10th
grade at George Mason Junior
Senior High School.
Mr.. Strople urged the board
to rule on the Negro assign
ments. He warned that if ac-
ton on the applications should
provoke a law suit, Its the
school board that's liable for
legal action, not the superin-
tendent." i
Board Member Roger VOL

that the board delegated place
ment authority to the superin-
tendent by naming him their
agent and thus set in motion
"an orderly process for han
ding pupil placement" He said
