old Tillman Hall at Clemson
Coollege on Monday and sign
up for courses including archi-
lecture.
At that moment, history will
have been made. The last State

public school segregation will
have given way to the edicts of
Federal courts.
What will happen when
Harvey CAN'T, 20 years old,
quiet-spoken but determined,
signs his enrolment papers?
From South Cardinals Gov
ernor, Clemson's president, the
States church leaders, and the
young men who hold positions
OF honor in the student body,
the answer is unanimous: every
effort will be made to avoid
violence or disorder.
South Carolina Gov. Donald
Russell says I'VE will abide by
the lawful process" and there
will be no disorder.
That doesn't mean accent
ance Of school integration -
even reluctant acceptance.

Attorney General Robert Kennedy yesterday told

a
Substantial numbers oi
American citizens" he said,
ARE being deprived of their
right to vote because Of race
and we continue to believe that
additional legislation in this
field Is necessary"
Seeks Prompt Relief"
The report steered clear of
recommending specific legiSla-
tion-obviously leaving that to
the White House-but there
were these indications:
/. The legislation sought will
be aimed at attacking the
considerable delays" between
the time the Government files
suit in voting cases and the
time Of trial. The Attorney
General emphasized the need for
prompt relief" where facts in
dicate that substantial NUMBERS
Of Negroes are being deprived
Of the right to register and
vote because Of race.
2. No drive is expected to be
launched to get rid Of so-called
literacy tests. The Attorney
General noted that when Con-
gress voted to submit the anti
poll tax Constitutional amend
ment to the States, it rejected
legislation forbidding the dis
criminatory use of voting quail
fications tests. But he did not
specifically urge legislation
again.
Cites Specific Cases
He cited specific cases where
the Government mas challenged
and proved discrimination
against Negro registration
applicants.
The goal of the legislation
would be to get court decisions
in time to allow the Negroes to
register and vote in the first
election that occurs after the
issue has been raised.
While the mechanics for
achieving this we're not dis
closed, one method could be the
use Of Federal referees. An
other could be putting specific
time limits on each phase OF
the legal battle through the
courts to avoid stalling tactics.
The Attorney General noted
that in some instances further
action has been needed even
after court orders have for
hidden further discrimination

applicants.
He cited the case CT the reg
istrar of Forrest County, Miss.
Ordered by the Federal Court
of Appeals to register all quail
fled Negroes, the registrar then
rejected as unqualified "a of
the first l03 Negroes to apply.
Among those rejected, Mr..
Kennedy reported, was a Ma
tional Science Foundation
graduate student and a high
school science teacher with a
masters degree.
Prosecuted Registrar
The Justice Department
prosecuted the registrar in the
first contempt case stemming
from a court voter registration
order but the case is awaiting
decision.
Throughout his report, the
Attorney General emphasized
that the progress in civil
rights during the past year
was due in large measure to
the responsibility and respect
for law displayed by the great
majority Of the citizens Of the
South" He called that "the
emerging spirit Of the South. I"
He said it had been the pol
icy of the administration in
all areas Of civil rights to con-
suit with local officials and
"to seek voluntary, peaceful
compliance with the COM
mands of our courts and our
laws" He said this policy had
met with particular success in
the voting field.
Mr.. Kennedy gave this prog
ress report for the various
civil rights areas.

Centennial Art Award
Stirs West Virqinions

HUNTINGTON, w. Va. Jan
26 (AP).-It's we'll, you
see the moon there, and those
old boards and the screen door
and well, it's unusual, for
sure.
What 1t is, however, is the
top prize winning painting by
a West Virginia artist in the
State Centennial Commissions
exhibition Of painting and
sculpture.
And its electlon-aIUng with
others-by the exhibition judge
James johnson Sweeney, direc-
tor of the Museum of Fine Arts
Houston, Tex, touched off a
chorus of howls from citizens
art-lovers and State officials.
The winning painting -
which brought $1,963 to artist
Joe Moss Of Morgantown, w
Va.-is an oil on boards. Old
boards. Old, cracked, broken
boards held together by two
uprights, something like the
tailgate Of a farm truck. An
old farm truck.
The broken frame Of a
screen door is nailed to the
boards. The whole thing is
shaded from gray at the top
to black at the bottom. A
round image - presumably a

gets It's name, west Virginia

Aluminium Sculpture

place with "Glassblower," A

The stated objective Of the

rich West Virginia, was to "in-
crease and develop participation
in painting, sculpture and crafts
to establish our place in

1t seemed only fair to warn

advised. She might become
famous, but she was doomed to
spend at least half of her
energy for the rest Of her life
trying to get the Margret half
spelled correctly, without the A
in the middle.
She was told about the
French actress, Corinne Calvet,
who gave up trying to get her
name spelled properly in this
country and changed it to Co.
rinne Calvert. She was told
about the story announcing
tbs. in one newspaper that be-
gan. "Corinne Calvert h a S
changed her name to Corinne
Calvert. :"
,Ann-Margret was told, also,
about the head of the proof
room on a newspaper who
adopted a panied manner when
asked if his proof readers
couldn't try to get Fredric
March's name spelled that way
-Fredric. why I read an in
terview with him only a few
weeks ago." the proof boss said,
lin which he said he'd given
up trying to get his name SPELL
ed correctly and didn't care
any more how it was spelled.
Ann-Margret brushed these
warnings aside with a smile
and a high voltage smile it is.
She may have stopped smiling
and changed her mind in the
past few days, however. A press
release has just arrived from
the office of Harold Rand, di-
