Space:
New Pledge

President Kennedy, visiting
four space centers in a two
day tour, pledged United States
pre-eminence in the "new ocean"
before the end Of the decade.
He was already committed to
getting an American to the moon
and back by 1870. He was on the
record with a promise to overtake
the Russians in space in the same
time span. He had more than
once declared our primary purpose
in this new exploration was to
bring peaceful benefits to all man
kind.
But last week President Ken
nedy took to the road and
strongly underscored his deter
mination on all these matters. At
the same time, he got in some
licks for the Democratic Party,
which appears to be facing a Sc
rious Republican challenge in the
congressional and gubernatorial
elections in November.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, ac-
companied by Vice President
johnson and congressional lead
ers in the field, he:
o Visited the Space Flight Cen
ter at Huntsville, Ala, where DR..
Wernher Won Braun assured him
on the moon expedition and
where he saw the giant rocket
which is to do the job.
o Inspected the Launch Opera
ton Center at Cape Canaveral and
chatted with Commander Walter
M. Schirra, jr., the astronaut who
will attempt six orbits Of the
earth one day in the next few
weeks.
o Made a major address at Rice
University in Houston on our
space hopes and fears and visited
the temporary site Of the new
Manned Spacecraft Center in the
same city.
o Flew to st. Louis to look over
the plant of the Mcdonnell Air
craft Corp. makers Of Mercury
space capsules and the two-man
capsules for the more advanced
Project Gemini.
In his speech in the Rice sta
dunn before 10000 persons, Mr..
Kennedy declared that America
means to lead" mans explora-
ton of space, despite the vast
expense this will involve, and to
keep the new ocean" peaceful.
I'VE have vowed that we shall
not see space filled with weapons
of mass destruction, but with in
struments Of knowledge and un-
derstanding," he said. "Yet the

Major Points

The political exchanges tended
to obscure some major points
made by Secretary Freeman. One
was that there was not "a scin-
tilla of evidence" to support
charges that Billie Sol Estes re-
ceived favored treatment.
He also gave public assurance
that Undersecretary Of Agricul-
ture Charles s. Murphy. who
made some Of the questioned de-
cisions in the Estes case, was Sc
cure in his position. The Secre-
tary said his confidence in and
respect for Mr.. Murphy is "still
intact"
The Secretary also announced
that he was asking Carl j. Miller
to resume his position as chief Of
the Warehouse Branch. Mr.. Mil
Ter had been reassigned pending
an investigation Of the Estes case.

cations Subcommittee headed by
Senator Mcclellan spent most Of

leaders. Despite the growth Of
other universities in Mississippi,
it still holds the central place in
the States educational system.
The Old Miss law school is the
only one in Mississippi. and in re-
cent times this has been a source
of both good and bad fortune. The
heavy contingent Of lawyers in the
Mississippi Legislature has given
the school strong support there at
ALLEGATION time, but it also has
brought Old Miss under a closer
State scrutiny than it might have
had.
In 1856 an angry legislator pro-
tested about the scheduled ap-
pearance of a minister, the Rev.
Alvin Kershaw, on the campus
during religious emphasis week.
His reason was that Mr.. Kershaw,
who had won $4,000 on the $64,-
600 Question" television program,
had announced he was giving part
of his winnings to the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People.
Screening Speakers
The cancellation Of Mr.. Ker-
shaw's appearance was not as i'm
portant to the university as its
aftermath. A commission was
created to screen speakers before
their appearance on any State
operated campus. The idea, as de-
fined by advocates of the move,
was to bar any speaker who

The Wrong Editor

1t also said that Ralph McGill,
Editor of the Atlanta Journal,
has taken Barton under his wing"
Barton had covered lunch coun-
ter sit-ins in Atlanta with report
ers but had taken no part in them.
He had never met Mr.. McGill, who
is not editor Of the journal but
publisher of the Atlanta Consti-
tuition.
1t later became apparent that
the source Of the garbled charges
against Mr.. Barton was an ac-
quaintance who maliciously told
Georgia segregation leaders about
him. They, in turn. had sent word
to Mississippi authorities.
The Barton case aroused the
wrath of a nuber Of Mississippi
editors, who attributed the Incl
dent to the growth Of the citizens
councils influence during the Bar
nett administration. The outcry
was the strongest criticism Of
T E councils since their organiza-
ton.

Alarming Incidents

that, despite these complaints Of
strait -jacketing, the sanctity Of
the classroom has been preserved
at Old Miss. But they have been
alarmed by several incidents Of
more recent times.
One Of these involved a student
editor, Billy Barton, q 20-year-old
farmers son studying journalism.
In the fall Of 1861 he returned
to the campus after a summers
work with the Atlanta Journal
under q student internship pro-
gram. Soon after that q State
legislator called upon the editor
Of the student newspaper. the
Mississippian, Of which Barton
was managing editor to say that
he had seen q report showing Bar
ton had "subversive tendencies"
Rumors of NAACP membership
and Communist sympathieS began
to circulate on the campus, and a
friend of Barton wrote to Gov.
Barnett asking for elaboration on
them. The answer came not from
the Governor but from the State
Sovereignty Commission, a segre-
CATION watchdog agency Of which
the Governor is chairman.
The commission, which works
arm-in-arm with the Citizens
Councils, sent a report saying

Iron with long, smooth, slow
strokes. These motions take
less energy than quick, short
strokes. Pressure on the iron is
unnecessary and fatiguing.
To save time and eliminate
extra handling, arrange gar
ments on the ironing board so
that you will have maximum
ironing surface. Always iron on
the grain line of a garment to
avoid stretching it out of shape.
Iron white and light cottons
on the right side unless they
develop a shine; iron dark cot
tons on the wrong side. To avoid
wrinkling and extra heat, move
ironed parts away from you
rather than toward you.
Plan TO iron when you are
fresh and alert. Listening to
good music or an interesting
radio or television program
the task more pleasant.
Ironing may also provide an OPP
portunity to do some creative
thinking or planning.
Finally, stop ironing before
you become too tired.

Enrolment
Up $50 In
Last Decade

Full-time undergraduate en-
rollment at the University of
Delaware has increased 95.6%
In the last decade and is 1917
higher than last year.
These statistics, and others
equally revealing, were re-
leased today in a report by Ro-
bert Gebhardtsbauer, regis
trar.
Figures show that the univer-
sity has 7,209 students under
instruction this semester, in
cluding 1893 undergraduates,
l,l2o graduate students and
2,490 extension students. Each
of these totals is record high.
During the last few years,
University of Delaware enroll
ment growth has almost doubled
the annual national gain. Con-
trary to the national picture,
DelaWare's growth has been
greater in terms of full-time
than part-time students. In all
categories, the university's en-
rollment is up 1872 In the last
ten years.
The l962-63 freshman class
of l,250 is the largest in the
university's history and the
overall total of 1893 full time
undergraduates is ll.7% greater
than last year. Only once in the
last five years has the univer-
sity's undergraduate enroll
ment failed to increase by at
least 1917.
The graduate enrolment,
which includes the largest num-
Der of full-time graduate stu
dents ever, is up 6.3% over
last year and tops the pre-
vious high of l,074 in 1860
81.
Extension enrollments, which
include 450 students at the
Dover Air Force Base, are
1859 higher than last year and
greater than the previous high
of 2,280 established In l958-59.

Homemakers can Danish
''ironing blues" with improved
shopping, laundry or ironing
practices.
Here are some suggestions
from Coral Morris, University
of Delaware home management
specialist:
Buy articles that need little
or no ironing. Avoid rufflers
and complicated patterns in
garments that require ironing.
Choose good-quality merchan-
disc. made of good material
and with good seam construc-
tion. These garments are easier
to iron than those that have
been cut skimpily or made poor
ly.
Try to prevent unnecessary
wrinkling in articles during
laundering. The more wrinkles
in clothes, the more time and
energy-consuming ironing will
be.
Clothes usually get less
wrinkled If they are dryer-dried
(but not too dry, even after
being spun in the washer cycel,
than If they are allowed to drip
dry. Folding articles as you
remove them from the line or
dryer also helps to prevent un-
necessary wrinkling.
Do a good job of dampening,
sprinkle clothes with warm
water. 1t penetrates more
quickly than cold water. Place
