2High U. S. Satellites
Watching for A-BIosts

Two satellites In 50,O00-mile-
high orbit are successfully
mapping radiation patterns in
space and are now watching
for sudden bursts Of radio
activity that might indicate a
secret nuclear test.
Officials who disclosed this
today said the United States
now has "a degree Of protec-
ton" against a sneak Soviet
nuclear testing program in
space.
The satellites, which have
sensors to see" radiation out
to about 200 million miles from
earth and equipment to trans
init their views to earth, have
proved effective to date" one
source reports.
Two sentry satellites were
launched from Cape Canaveral
on a single rocket the night of
October 16. The announc e d
purpose was to determine the
feasibility of detecting nuclear
explosions as far as 200 million
miles from earth.
The Defense Department
promised to report later on the
success of the operation.
1t Is understood the two ex-
perimental satellites, expected
to remain effective for about
six months, do not give COM
plete coverage of all space sur
rounding the earth. Others
would have to be launched and
placed at proper intervals be-
tween the two orbiting pack

FARMVILLE, Va, Aug. o.
More than 500 Negroes marched
on the Prince Edward County
Courthouse last night in the
biggest demonstration they have
staged here so far.
The spontaneous march grew
out of a mass meeting called
by Negro leaders to report on
first-day registration for pri-
vately- financed classes to be
set up for schoollesS Negro
children.
Led by the Rev. L. Francis
Griffin, Virginia NAACP presi-
dent, the Negroes marched
from the First Baptist Church
and maSsed at the Courthouse
entrance and on the steps,
Only a handful Of police were
in the vicinity and they stood
by while the Negroes sang sew

After the brief demonstration
the Negroes marched two
abreast back to the church.
No Permits Issued

the fact that no permit had
been issued for the demon

Airports Rental
Bill Is Stalled
By Fee Dispute

A bill to establish a new sys-
TEN for renting Dulles and Ma
tional Airports was snagged in
Congress yesterday, mainly be-
cause of a dispute over wheth-
er the Governments airport
fees should be subject to ar
bitration.
The administration backed
measure was shelved during an
executive session Of the House
Interstate and Foreign Com
merce Committee. The legisla-
ton called for establishing a
corporation under the Federal
Aviation Agency to operate
both the airports. y
The airports now are run by
FAA under two legislative
charters. Under the bill, a cor
poration made up of five citi-
zen members would advise FAA
on operation of the airports.
At yesterdays meeting, Com
mittee Chairman Harris, DEM
ocrat of Arkansas, requested
that the bill he set aside with
out prejudice because of its
controversial nature.

wide.
The company is expected to
seek financing from the Fed
eral Housing and Home Finance
Agency for the pilot prof.
ect as it had hoped in the
Montgomery County plan.
However. this calls for an
actual request for funds to be
made by a governmental body
rather than directly by D. c.
Transit.
Transit company representa-
tives have been in touch with
Prince Georges County Off
Gals about the proposal. Reac-
ton has been favorable and it
has been stated that county tax
money will not be involved.
Last March, when the firm
announced the Montgomery
project, Morris Fox, a vice
president, said he hoped that

The classes, to be set up irl

be the first for Negroes since
the county closed schools foul
years ago to avoid Indignation
White students have been at

Formation of the Prince
Edward County Free School,
Association was announced last
week by Gov. Harrison. Among

organization is former Gov
Colgate w. Darden, jr.
Mr.. Griffin urged Negro rar-
ents last night not to let up
in their efforts to break down
racial barriers now that classes
are again in sight for their
children. He said they should
press not only for desegregated
public schools but also for bet
ter jobs and desegregation of
eating and lodging places.
He called for a tightening of
a boycott Of white merchants
in Farmville. And he urged the
adults to get in the lines with
the youngsters who have been
conducting the picketing dem
onstrations.

SIS Million Estimate
The bus company proposed
that a 2.5-mile elevated mono-
rail be built from Georgia
avenue in Wheaton to Ran
dolph road along the viers
Mill road along the median
strip. The estimated cost was
SIS million.
The system would carry rub
ber-tired trains of three cars,
each one seating SIS passengers
and standing 10. the Mont
gomery proposal stated. Track
would be mounted on canti-
levered pylons rising 10 feet
above the roadway median.

the plan sis a complete rever-
sal of the &C. DARWIN Stolen
bach plan" Mr.. Stolzenbach
is head of the National Capital
Transportation Agency which
has proposed that rail rapid
transit arteries feed comm tiers
into the downtown area where
subways would distribute them.
Under the Prince Georges
plan, the monorail would feed
commuters to shuttle buses at
Branchville where they could
be carried to large employment
centers such as the Goddard
Space Flight Center and the
proposed Environmental Health
Center. At the other end of the
line, the Mount Rainier Ter
minal would feed passengers

gional shopping center, now
under construction on Green
belt road.
AS in the Montgomery Coun-
ty proposal, which died from
legal difficulties, the new pilot
system would depend heavily
on Federal financing to get it
off the ground.

thinking would take the mono
rail from the District line to
Friendship Airport near Bal
timore.

the right-of-way that carried
a two-way street car operation

 Hall used as his example the homes built in Alaska, many of them on 12"x12" timbers, or smaller, and other homes built upon solid. concrete foundations.
 In time.' Hall said, the hous- es built upon timbers will start buckling, sliding and cracking. Soon they will fall apart. The ones built on solid foundations remain stauneh. The same thing applies to you students as to what you do with your education and life"
 Members of the graduating class were presented. They were John Martin, Jr.; Karen Herman sen, who gave the class history; Suzan Huebsch, valedietorian; Martha Kingsley, class prophecy; kristin Osmar, salutatorian, and Owen Cramer, class will.
 It was mentioned that this class will go far in life if mem- bers adhere to their class motto Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquest of it."

Water Hue
Stirs Areas

Hundreds of Alexandria resi-
dents who turned on their
water faucets yesterday had a
surprise in store-colored water.
Depending upon the view
point of the user, the color
ranged from brown to dark yell
low. but basically it was on the
brown side, according to Philip
H. Dowdell, manager Of the
Alexandria Water Company.
Mr.. Dowdell explained it this
way:
The water company power
plant at Occoquan had a power
failure at 1915 am. When
power was restored about half
an hour later, "the change in
velocity riled up the water"
Mr.. Dowdell said. This in turn
stirred UP sediment in the pipes
which flowed into the homes.
The affected homes were in
several areas Of the city, par
ticularly in the northeast, Mr.
Dowdell said. Later in the day,
a company crew flushed the
pipes and the water returned
TO its usual state.
