The legislation ran into It's

incredible in this day and age
that Congress should pass a
bill resorting to corporal pun

OF the recent demonstrations
and the rioting began.
BY the time order was re-

buildings had been burned
about so persons injured, and
o taxicab and a police motor
cycle burned.
Alabama Gov. George Wal
lace challenged President Ken
nedy's authority to send Fed
eral troops into Alabama and
said State and local authori-
ties could keep order. He sent
several hundred State troopers
into Birmingham and offered
q $4,000 reward for information
leading to the arrest Of the
persons responsible for the
bombings.
Gov. Wallace wired the
President:
Reached Agreement
"In my judgment, your
statement (about the possible
use of troops has tended to
aggravate and inflame the
existing situation rather than
to alleviate the same, as we
have DONE"
He told reporters that "the
Negroe mobsters desire Federal
troops" but omitted that from
his telegram to Mr.. Kennedy,
the Associated Press reported.
The new violence flared after
Negro leaders and representa-
tives Of white business COM

ment they thought would set

Rocks rained against police
vehicles, shattering windows.
Two officers were jumped on in
front Of the bombed motel and
were being beaten until six
others came to their rescue.
Negro civil defense workers
and integration leaders helped
restore some semblance Of order
by dawn.
Negro leaders charged police
with savage brutality.
Mrs. Wyatt Tee Walker said
she was knocked down by
a rifle butt. Mrs. Walker said
a State trooper hit her squarely
on the forehead when she tried
to go to her room at the motel.
She was treated at O. hospital.
Denies Police Brutality
Col. AL Lingo. head Of the
State patrol, denied any police
brutality and said the police
used their weapons only in self
defense. He denied that Mrs.
Walker was struck with a rifle.
Mr.. Walker, 80, also claimed
he was beaten by two State
troopers when he tried to return
to the motel to join his wife.
Mr.. Walker said he talked to
Attorney General Kennedy and
told him that the Negroes have
mo confidence In the white po-
lice officers" and that the "only
way to divert disaster is to get
troops in the area" He said he
felt the announcement by the
President that troops were be-

He said that Negroes who

fiant Gov. George Wallace

besieged Birmingham.
The fiery Governor, who has
vowed to disobey any Federal

kilograms to the President and
members Of Congress, and in
sisting that State and local
officers can preserve law and
order.

he added. Il am for mainte-
nance Of law and order and de-

Of homers that powered the
Cubs to a 5-4, 10-inning vic

Los Angeles at Chicago.
Santo hit his first homer in
the fifth inning to tie the
score, then won it in the 10th
with a shot over the leftfield
bleachers that ended the Cubs
four-game 10 sing skid and
trimmed the Dodgers edge
over second-place San Fran
cisco to 51a games.
Santo, who hit .284 in 1861,
floundered last year as he was
continually being shuffed in
the batting order. He was
tabled for the No. 4 spot dur
ing spring training.
Earning Promotion
Once he got the promotion,
he started earning it. The 23-
year-old righthanded swinger
is hitting .295, is tied for
fourth place in homers with 20
and is third in runs batted in
with rs. Last year he hit II
homers and drove in SO runs.

(AP) -Middleweight Champion
Dick Tiger, the pride of Nigeria,
meets American Gene Fullmer
in q title fight for the third
time tomorrow but in a setting
far different from San Fran
cisco and Las Vegas.
This is Nigeria's first world
title fight and the government
is anxious to make it a pres
tige promotion. Officials have
brought in Jack Solomons, an
experienced British promoter,
to stage the hereunder at
Liberty Stadium and have sub
sidized the fight to the tune Of
$280,000 so that the fighters
can be paid in the style which
they have become accustomed
in the United States.
Whammy Applied
They have not neglected
African custom and superstition.
It's been raining tigers and
dogs here lately, heavy toIren-
tial downpours that last 3
hours at a clip. This has made
quite a mess Of the road from
Lagos, the Nigerian capital
about SO miles from Ibadan.
Since q lot of paying Gus
toners are expected from
Lagos, Chief Joseph Modups
johnson, the cabinet minister
for Labor and Sports, would
like to make sure they can
make the trip. So he's hired a
pair Of rain doctors to put the
whammy on the rain clouds.
$4,000 Expected
If the rain does let up. about
$4,000 are expected for the
1880 pm. (EDT) bout. That

Tiger, the native son. and $50.-
