Johnson Meets With Newsmen WASHINGTON UPI — President Johnson -still setting new styles for meeting reporters— goes before a “live” nationwide radio-television audience at 11 a.m., EST today for his first news conference since Feb. 1. ' There was a broad field of potential questions, ranging from the critical Viet Nam situation to the Senate investigation of Johnson’s former protege, Robert G. (Bobby) Baker. Since the Chief Executive’s last formal news conference, the Viet Nam situation has worsened; Cuba shut off the water to the U. S. Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay; Baker has testified before a Senate committee, invoking the Fifth Amendment, and a number of other international and domestic developments have occurred. The President has spoken out on many of these issues in speeches and statements, but without subjecting himself to reporters' questions over the last four weeks. For today’s conference, the Chief Executive laid down a few rules for all present—including himself — to remain seated through the half-hour session. Newsmen were instructed to seek recognition by quietly raising their hands.

In the second game of last nights action, the Bainbridge Pointers clipped the wings of the Roachdale Hawks 60-53 in the fourth round of elimination. Bainbridge’s zone defense appeared to have stopped Roachdale’s penetration to the basket. Bainbridge held a 10-5 lead over the Hawks at 2:46 but a foul shot and Preston's field goal cut the lead. Larry Clones’ field goal tied the ball game 10-all. Bill Rossok came back seconds later t<£ break that tie. With 27 seconds left in the first quarter Roachdale’s field goal again tied the game. The Pointers got the breaks with a field goal and a foul on the play to enter the second quarter holding a 16-13 advantage. The Pointers began to controll the ball as Roachdale attempted to halt a Bainbridge surge. The mid-quarter score had Bainbridge leading by nine as the Hawks began to press. It was 33-18 as the Pointers rolled into the halftime intermission. During 2nd quarter play, Roachdale could only tag the net for five points against a Pointer collection of 17. Roachdale desperately tried to stem a Pointer scoring surge as the Hawks trailed at mid quarter 40-23. But the Hawks were still in the game as their determination brought them within 9 points at the 2:00 mark. Fortytwo seconds to go and the Hawks trailed by 4 with a gleam in their eye. Bill Rossok's free throw was the last point of the quarter as the 1964 County Champs entered the last eight minutes of the game 43-3S. Tony Asher fouled out at midfourth quarter with the Hawks trailing 50-42. Roachdale chopped away at the Pointer lead. Two minutes and thirty-three seconds were left in the game and Bainbridge kept their hard won seven point lead. The Hawks went to the press with little more than a minute to play. Larry Clones fouled out with 38 seconds to play and Bainbridge led by eight. Last minute play gave the Pointers

Extra Security Taken For LBJ WASHINGTON UPI — The White House disclosed today that extra protective measures were taken for President Johnson's trip to Florida Thursday because of “a security reason.” Press Secretary Pierre Salinger refused to amplify on the reason in answering reporters’ questions about unusual secrecy that attached to Johnson’s schedule. “The security measures taken were in addition to security measures usually taken and there was a security reason for that step,” Salinger said. “Beyond that, I will not go.” Salinger would not say whether there had been any threats against the President’s safety which led to these additional security measures. The secretary included lack of any announced details in advance of Johnson’s Florida travels beyond his first stop at the Jacksonville Naval Air Station and a - 50-mile helicopter flight to a canal dedication at Palatka.

Dixie Senators Split Over Bill WASHINGTON UPI — The Senate opened debate Friday on the administration's disputed farm bill with a sharp split between two southern senators over the measure’s cotton sections.

Sen. James Eastland, D-Miss., and Sen. Allen Ellender, D-La., immediately took opposite sides
