WASHINGTON lHa The Sup rene Court refused today to re- view the conviction of Dave Beck, former Teamster Union president,
 un charges or Tlilng Ialse IeueraI tax returns for the union for 1850 and 1852.
 The high tribunal, in a May IA decision on another appeal, af. firnned saxrictinn Of Beck on : charge of en1bezzlement of $1 900 from the sale of an automobile

COP Must Win
 Or Lapse Into Minority for Years
By JACK BELL

SEATTLE tR Republicans were warned by their national chairman today the party must win in 1862 or face "a great dan ger of lapsing into minority status for many years"
 Rep. William E. Miller of New York added that without victory next fall q don't think the COP nomination for President in 1864 will be worth much"
 But he predicted the Repub1i- cans will gain control of the House and pick up several Senate seats in November, including those of Democrats Wayne Morse of Ore- gon and Frank Church off Idaho. Miller also said President Ken nedy's call for income tax cuts next year will lead to imitation unless they are accompanied by a slash in government spending. The Republican chairman made the statements at news confer ence shortly before calling to order a two-day meeting of his party's national committee in this worlds fair city
 Miller exuded optimism, as did committee members W h 0 ars counting heavily in stock marke uneasiness and the Billie Sol Este
 seandal te help them ii the s; fsi 1 elections.
 Miller said any tax cut withou
 less government spending, sspal l ticularly in the area of the we
 fare state,n will deprive the An
 erican people of it's benefit b
 cheap pening the dollar"
 II think the issue is on ou
 side" he said. Tt is we Republi
 cans who have constantly insiste on less government expenditure
 and reduced taxes" :"
 l The issues, as spelled out b. Miller and other committee mem bers, revoIve around what the, called lack of confidence by thu business community in President Kennedy as exemplified by the stock markets gyrations-a re puted effort by the President to enlarge executive power and a new COP slogan that there are too many Kennedys in government"

Miss Phoebe Jean Boykins,
Sophomore, st. Mary's School,
Vicksburg, was selected as
first place winner of the third
annual Delta Catholic Scho-
lastic Association Oratorical
Contest held on Thursday, De-
cember 6. Miss Boykins is the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Ern-
est Boykins, Sr. of Vicksburg.
The runner-up trophy was
won by Miss Jean Williams of
st. Francis School, Green
wood.
A highlight of the afternoon
was the presentation of a.
wards by His Excellency, Most
Reverend Richard o. Gerow
who graced the occasion with
his presence.
After presenting the person
al trophies to the winning con-
testants, Bishop Gerow presen-
ted the beautiful school tro-
ply to Miss Boykins. At the
school assembly a few days la
ter, Miss Boykins formally pre-
sented the school trophy to the
Principal, Sister Berchmans,
of the Holy Spirit Missionary
Sisters, Techny, Illinois.
This particular prize is a ro-
tating trophy held for one year
by the winning school. It was
an added thrill to the faculty
and students of st. Mary's
since they held the trophy in
196O-61.
The contest itself consisted
of two facets. The oratorical
feature was a prepared, ten
minute delivery based on the
Catholic Bishops of Americas
1861 annual letter entitled,
"Unchanging Principles in a
Changing World" Following
this phase of the contest was
the more difficult six-minute
extemporaneous talk for which
each contestant was given six
minutes to prepare. From the
six possible subject areas, the
topic Principles Of Family
Life" was chosen. o7
Besides Miss Boykins Of St.
Mary's, vicksburg and Miss

Greenwood, other contestants
were: Carl Fletcher, Immacu-

NEW ORLEANS - Tulane
University, decreed a private
institution the week previous
by Federal District Judge
Frank B. Ellis, okayed the ad-
mission of two young Negro
women for the February Sc
mester.
The move represented a re-
versal of policy that has kept
Negroes out of the university
since its founding.
The board of administrators
of the + u a N e Educational
Fund met last week and di-
rected that the apple ations az
Mrs. Pearlie Hardin Elloie
and Barbara Guillory be ap-
proved, and that the two be
accepted as students at the
university.
The two women were plain
tiffs in a Federal Court suit
that sought to have Tulane de-
clared a state-supported insti-
tute and, C n e que t1y,
should admit them.
JUDGE FRANK ELLIS
ruled that Tulane was a pri-
vate institution and could not
be ordered to admit Negroes.
At the same time he said that
Tulane was free to act on the
question of admission.
