HEY MAMA !!
First Day in School

'empty" house. The little ones will
play sadly albeit energetically, minus
their arch ring leader who will now
have deserted them in favor of edu-
cation.
And all day long Il don't care if
you have twenty-five children, twenty
of whom are in school, you can be
sure that Mama will be making inroads
on the Kleenex, lingering her Rosary,
and looking out at the patch of blue
she can see from the kitchen window.
Guardian Angel, protect and
guide the little fellow"
BLESSED Mother, help Sister,"
The teacher always looks so frall and
young and inexperienced. It's ever a
long, lonely, and pensive day. Never
do the maternal sins and shortcomings
seem so numerous, SO grim. Never
does the first grader seem so small,
SO dear.
AFTER HE is SAFELY returned,
however, only slightly battle-Scarred
torn and trailing shirt-tail, scuffed
shoes, and dirty face, and now that he
has blasted Mama with this first COM
munique, | will pick up the bookbag,
hunt for the brown grocery sacks
(alias book c%overs), get out my purse,
put on the thimble, lay out the shoe
polish, wet the washcloth, and open
the cupboard. For the fine September
mists are here once again, the child is
six, school has started, and mother is
back in business!

patch of blue sky that shows from my

The fine September miSts are
here once again and it's on with the
new buds, out with the shoe polish and
comb, and back to school.
Almost each year another little
member of the family joins the ranks
of the colder children" acquires an
enormous bookbag they all look big
on a six-year-old), and with a heart
pounding wildly, files past me with the
others for the farewell Sign of the
Cross on his forehead.
THIS BABY" IS LOST forever to
the domestic scene! | will no longer
say, Look out for Paul in the yard,
watch baby sister for-a-minute, get
Mama the talcum powder like-a-big-

DRAGGING HIS BooKBAc over
the threshold, this little child, who yes

will now dump his burden of books at

10 Cuban Prisoners Await News on Tractor Deal

KEY WEST, Fla. R - Ten anti-Castro prisoners awaited de- velopments here today that might bring freedom to them and 1,187 of their comrades in Cuba.
 John Hook Jr., executive secre- tary of the dissolved Tractors for Freedom Committee was expected to return from Miami this after noon for his third meeting with the prisoners since their arrival from Havana Saturday.
 Hooker insisted he is not nego- tiating with the prisoners but only serving as a contact between them and the committee: Eleanor Roose- welt, Dr. Milton Eisenhower and Walter Reuther.
 Informed sources said, how ever, that Rockers continued contact with the prisoners indi- cated a new approach may be made to resume the stalemated negotiations.
 Negotiations for the prisoners release broke down Friday when Prime Minister Castro rejected final offer of 500 general pur- poses tractors from the commit tee. Castro said then he would send 10 prisoners back to the United States to explain his po- sition. The same prisoner group visited Miami and Washington last month after Castro first asked for 500 heavy tractors.

Two Men Escape with Minor Injury Riding
 Down with an Avalanche

HOOD RIVER, Ore. Two men escaped with minor injuries Sunday when they rolled 2,000 feet down the northeast slope of Mt. Hood with an avalanche of snow and ice
 They are Colin Chisholm, 54, of Lake Oswego, Ore, and his son, Douglas, 22. Chisholm was hos pitalized here with back and rib injuries. The son suffered cuts.
 Chrishom said the accident was his fault that he had beer trying to hurry across sheer ice wall about 500 yards below the summit.
 They had been climbing with a group from the Mazama Club and were descending the noun tain. AS they attempted to cross the wall, their ice axes pulled loose.

Governors Pledge Strong Support to .JFK Crisis Areas

HONOLULU R - Governors of both political parties pledged strong support today to President Kennedy in his dealing with the SoViets on Berlin and other crisis areas.
 But Kennedy's domestic policies came in for sharp criticism from some Republicans and a Demo- crat who was one of his early supporters for the 1860 Presi- dential nomination, Gov. John Patterson of Alabama.
 Patterson kicked up some excite ment on the outskirts of the 53rd annual Governors Conference by blasting what he called the "child- ish' handling of the Freedom Riders" bus controversy by the Presidents brother, Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy.
 Gov Nelson Rockefeller of New York - who might be Kennedy's Republican opponent for the Presidency in 1864 - called for a moratorium on political criti- cism of the administration inter- national moves.
 Rockefeller told a news con- ference Sunday that Kennedy ob- viously faces a great many prob lems more complex than they looked from outside" the presi- dency. He said it was too early to make any judgments.
 'The problems are so complex, so serious they have such an ef- feet on human dignity and liberty around the world I feel all of us, regardless Of party, should stand behind him to support the defense of freedom with whatever steps are necessary" Rockefeller said.
 Rockefeller's attitude contrast ed with criticisms voiced by for mer Vice President Richard Nix on and Sen. Barry Goldwater, potential bidder for the 1864 party prize.
 In recent speeches Nixon has contended that the Kennedy Ad- ministration has tended to "talk big and act timidly." Goldwater has said that it will 'take a lot more doing than is being done" to win the cold war

Navy to Discard Its Blimp Fleet

WASHINGTON lR - The Navy handed down today a death sen- tence for it's blimp fleet.
 It announced that eight of it's 10 active airships would be de- Hated and placed in storage by Nov. 30 The two others will be kept in service until a year from now for research and develop ment work.
 The decision was made because of shortage of funds and per- sonnel combined with the in- creasing capability of helicopters and fixed wing aircraft to per form all necessary anti-submarine and airborne early warning func- tions," the announcement said.

House Votes for $5 Billion Increase In Debt Limit

WASHINGTON R The House voted today for $5 bill lion temporary increase in the national debt limit. The legisla- ton would set the ceiling at $298 billion and make sure the Treas ury can pay it's bills next week.
 For hours before the House acted, sending the legislation to the Senate, Republicans raked President Kennedy's Administra- ton with charges of reckless spending. Some Democrats joined in condemning big government outlays.
 The Senate is expected to act promptly on the legislation. Un- less it approves it by Friday, the debt limit automatically will drop to it's present level, $285 billion.
 Secretary of the Treasury Doug las Dillon has told Congress the debt at weeks end will be about $4 billion higher than this fig ure, so reduction to the per manent figure would bring on a Treasury crisis, which Congress will not permit to develop.
 The country has been operat- ing for the past year under a $293 billion debt limit - the per manent figure plus an $8 billion increment authorized for one year only.

Freedom Rider Says Brutal Treatment Was Inflicted on Jailed Mates

NEW YORK LR - A teen-age "Freedom Rider" who was im- prisoned for three weeks in Mis- sissippi, said today that terribly brutal treatment was inflicted on some anti-segregation demonstra- tors confined there.
 Kenneth Shilman, IS, of Ocean side, N. Y, one of the white youths in the group held in the Missis- sippi State Penitentiary, said "cat- tie shockers" and "Wrist-break- CTS" were used on some of them.
 Shilman spoke in an interview here after his return from Mis- sissippi where he was released Saturday.
 Tn Jackson, Kinds County Sheriff J. R. Gilfoy denied any inhuman treatment and said "were leaning over backward in handling them"
 We were kept in maximum security, tWo-man cells in our underwear and with the light burning day and night" he said.
 From his cell, Shilman said he saw two Chicago Freedom Riders, Felix Singer and Terry Sullivan, both whites, dragged naked along 60 yards of concrete corridor after they refused to strip and walk to their cells.
 "Their clothes were ripped off of them," he said. 'As they were dragged past us, the skin was tearing of their bodies, and the extreme pain showed on theil faces" he said.
 Electric shockers, generally usec on livestock, had first been used on them before they were drag ged, he said, adding: "I saw the burns afterward on Sullivan's s arms and legs"
 Later, Shilman said, when the two were taken to be finger printed, 'wrist-breakers," clamps with handle for applying pres sure to the wrists, were put on them.
 "When they were pulled along the hall, Felix was yelling you're breaking my arm,'" Shilman re- lated. ''He fell and his head hit the concrete floor and then he was dragged nude on his stomach. It was indescribable."

Egan Urges ACC And Unions to Get Together

JUNEAU R - Gov. Egan to day urged the Associated Gen eral Contractors and eight con structiOn unions to make every effort to come to a peaceful set clement of their contract dispute
 Members of the ACC Saturday started laying off members of four of the eight unions who had struck ACC jobs in Anchorage and Ketchikan.
 The four unions are the Team sters, Operating Engineers, Ce- ment Finishers and Laborers.
 The layoff is to be completed by tomorrow, the ACC said, and will cover every ACC member job in the state.
 A spokesman for the ACC said i've are merely testing our econ omic strength against theirs"
 If the current situation de- teriorates into a general construc- tion strike, Egan said, Cit is going to have a tremendous economic effect on the state It would be disastrous for Alaska if they go out"
 Egan said he hopes the ACC action in laying off Teamsters, Operating Engineers, Laborers and Cement Finishers does not de- velop into a power play"
 Egan said he did not believe the Taft-Hartley Labor Law could be brought into play because I'll was designed to end strikes which threaten the health and welfare of the nation as whole.
 "I would say to both sides, de termine your course of action in relation to the effect it will have on the economy of the state
 Other than to express my strong desire that they continue to negotiate and continue to stay on the job, there is nothing else I can do," Egan said.
 The governor said he has had no personal contact with either the ACC or the eight unions in- volved in the dispute.
 The four other Unions involved are the Carpenters, Bricklayers, Lathers and IronWorkers.
