Uneasy Calm Over Campus
OXFORD, Miss. (UPI) — The government made the first move today in efforts to ease the tensions surrounding admission of a Negro to the University of Mississippi and the international repercussions caused by his presence on the campus. An atmosphere of uneasy calm ' prevailed in the sleepy town of, Oxford and on the “Ole Miss’’ campus itself, but the resentment could not be hidden as Negro James H. Meredith began his third day of classes at the state institution. The Army mo ved 3,600 paratroopers out of Oxford Tuesday night in what was described as a “regrouping of forces.” The maneuver left about 11,000 soldiers in the area to watch the tense situation surrounding Meredith's enrolment Armed sentries remained on
The new silhouette of the Cadillac Coupe de Ville for 1963 results from this new roof design. It combines a more sporty look with an air of formality and is responsible for an additional seven inches in the rear deck which adds greatly to the appearance of greater length. In actuality the Coupe de Ville is only one inch longer than last year at 223 inches. The framed-in back window is 38 per cent smaller in overall area.

Hanged In Effigy Meredith, a 29-year-old Air I Force veteran, was hanged in efi figy Tuesday night from a thirdfloor window of the dormitory next to his. “We’ll be glad when you’re gone,’’ read a cardboard placard hanging from a straw dummy’s neck. Confederate flags flew from other adjacent dormitories, offering mute testimony to the consensus of local opinion over Meredith’s admission to the university. Next door to the dormitory from which his effigy hung, Meredith slept in a bare, whitewalled room shared by a U.S.

Feel* Lonely Meredith, whose wife lives at an college in Jackson, was asked by a reporter who accompanied him to classes Tuesday whether he was lonely. He smiled. ■“I have b een living a lonely life for a long time now,” he replied. It appeared the government was trying gradually to reduce the number of troops stationed here to assure Meredith’s continued safety. A public information officer said Tuesday night’s transfer of troops took two battle groups to the U. S. Naval Air Station at Millington, Tenn., and a third to Columbus, Miss.

Suggest Chief Justice For State Courts INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Indiana’s Supreme and Appellate Court judges appeared divided on a proposal presented today to the Legislative Advisory Commission for a permanent chief justice in each court. John S. Grimes, chairman of the Indiana Judicial Council, who made the report, explained that the proposak' had been suggested to the counel but the council had not taken ,any position on it. The council consists of nine men representing the Supreme and Appellate Courts, the state legislature, the lower courts and the state bar and law schools. At present, the position of chief justice rotates once every six months in Indiana. Norman Arterbum, who is the present chief justice of the Indiana Supreme Court, pointed out that six months “is not long enough to be effective. I believe the court would function better if there were someone there ready to crack the whip, if necessary.” Judge Arch Bobbitt, the senior member of the Indiana Supreme Court, said he would not be for or against the plan of a permanent chief justice until he knew what method would be used to select that official. “The governor could name the chief justice, the court could elect, or the senior judge could serve,’’ he said, in answer to a question about probable methods of selecting a chief. Bobbitt said he feels the C.J, “has very little power now. He is just a grandized law clerk.’’ Grimes, in a report to Lt. Gov. Richard O. Ristine, presiding officer of the LAC, also commented on other changes under study by the council. Grimes said it is “apparent that the Indiana judicial system,
last overhauled in 1881, is in need ■ of tailoring to meet the changes I that have come about in the inter* I vening years." ] He said that lack of funds had I prevented the council from mak- I ing a study of the lower courts. I He said the council suggested that I the legislature might wish to “re- I organize the council and ade- I quately finance it so that it can I perform the duties imposed upon I it by statutes." I Decatur Man Fined, Sentence Suspended Robert Wayne Johnson, 31, 922 I N. 12th street, was fined 110 and I costs, totaling 827, in city court I this morning by Judge John B. I Stults, and was remanded to the I Adams county jail when unable to I pay the fine. Johnson also received I a six months sentence, which was I suspended by the court. The Decatur man was arrested I by the city police at 5:20 p.m. I Tuesday, shortly after he had been I involved in a minor accident at I 325 S. Tenth street. The accident I occurred at 4:58 p.m. when John- I son backed his auto into a drive- I way at 325 S. Tenth street and I struck a parked truck on the left I side.
