MUNCIE UPI—Rep. Richard Roudebush, R-Ind., said he thinks Indiana University president Elvis Stahr should ban the W.E.B. DuBois club from the campus. Roudebush, speaking here in one of his last formal appearances before Tuesday’s primary elections, said the school at Bloomington also should cancel a speech scheduled Tuesday night by Dr. Herbert Aptheker, a Communist party leader.
Roudebush, who along with Rep. Ralph Harvey, R-Ind., were thrown into the same congressional district by reapportionment, said the Tuesday night meeting was “an incredible situation and should not be permitted.” He said, “To add insult to injury, IU officials have clamped a lid of secrecy on their communist convocation and will not permit the public to listen.” Roudebush said only students
Students Riot In Galveston
GALVESTON, Tex. UPI — Unruly students attacked two police cars with a barrage of beer cans Sunday night in what harassed police called" one last fling” ending a weekend of rioting on Galveston beaches. Police arrested hundreds of students, some from as far Eggs ami Jeers On IU Campus BLOOMINGTON UPI—Antiwar demonstrators picketing an appearance at Indiana University by Lt. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, national Selective Service director, were the targets of eggs and jeers Monday night. However, a feared showdown between the pacifists and 200300 students staging a counterdemonstration in support of the draft and the war in Viet Nam did not materialize. As riot-helmeted police and civil defense workers kept a close watch, the two groups of demonstrators conducted quiet and orderly picketing which ended shortly after Hershey began his speech at a university convocation. But while the two groups of pickets remained quiet, there were jeers directed toward the approximately 150 anti-war demonstrators and eggs were thrown at them by the crowd of onlookers. Eggs were also thrown at a rally which preceded the demonstration. Student leaders had called for the counter-demonstration to show “the real loyalty of our nation’s college students” and to put an end to rumors that IU is “undermined with Communists and subversives.”
away as Kansas. Two persons were shot and at least a dozen other injuries were reported. Police estimated as many as 20,000 students crowded onto this island city’s beaches in what used to be called “splash days," the official start of the swimiming season. “Splash days” was abolished as an official event after student riots of 1961 but students usually came anyway. Two brothers checking into a motel were wounded with a pellet gun but were released after a few hours in a hospital. Two coeds had their bathing suits torn off by the beergulping male students Saturday and screams from victims of similar mischief brought screaming police cruisers Sunday. Police used tear gas to break up the disorderliness. The youths surrounded the arriving police cars and pelted them with beer cans and bottles. No one was injured and police finally aided by Texas Liquor Control officers, sheriff's deputies and Texas Rangers finally drove the students back and blocked auto ramps leading to the beach. “It’s just a rabble-rousing drunken element that causes all this,” said Police Chief William J. Burns.
and faculty members would be allowed to attend. Recently Roudebush complained that the head of the DuBois Club, Gaylord King, was receiving a $4,900 annual federal grant to study graduate chemistry. Later King’s grant was revoked on the grounds that he failed to survive competitive examinations. The DuBois Club is being investigated as a communist front organization.
Conduct Study Of Seat Belts WASHINGTON UPI — The federal government is conducting a study to determine whether—as auto industry critic Ralph Nader claims — the buckles of the new push-button auto seatbelts are defective. The study, by the National Bureau of Standards, was requested by Sen. Warren G. Magnuson, D-Wash., chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, which is considering President Johnson’s proposed traffic safety legislation. A government spokesman said the study would be completed within two months and its results made public. According to Nader, that in itself would be something of a departure from previous practice; he has claimed that other government auto safety studies were never made public. Nader charged last week that General Motors and Ford had equipped their late model cars with the push-button seatbelts knowing they were unsafe. He claimed the buckles would pop open if rapped sharply. Ford Vice President John S. Bugas told a House safety hearing the buckle release demonstrated by Nader was a mere “parlor trick.” Both Ford and GM officials said they had received no complaints about the belt.
Johnson Administration Will Follow 'Limited War' Policy
Hals Will HM Summit Meeting LONDON UPI — A Communist summit conference on Viet Nam strategy and the SovietChinese conflict will likely be held early in July, informed sources said today. Top leaders of Russia, the East European countries and several leading Communist parties outside the Red bloc appear to have agreed on the conference, the sources said. Its chief aim will be to coordinate Communist policy and assistance to North Viet Nam and seek a joint line on the feud with Red China. The party chiefs of the Warsaw Pact nations — Russia, Poland, Czechoslavakia, East Germany, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria — were said to be among those slated to participate.
Court Refuses To Reveiw Case WASHINGTON UPI — The Supreme Court has refused to review the $91,000 income tax evasion conviction of Washington business consultant Fred B. Black Jr., who figured prominently in the Senate investigation of Robert G. (Bobby) Baker. The brief order leaves standing as final a 2-1 ruling against Black by the U. S. Court of Appeals here on Jan. 17. He was sentenced to a jail term of from 15 months to four years and a $10,000 fine. Baker, former secretary of the Senate Democrats, is scheduled for trial in October on charges of larceny, tax evasion and other offenses. Black was convicted of willful attempts to evade his federal income taxes for the years 1956, 1957 and 1958. The government’s evidence was designed to show that he had unreported income of more than $140,000.
Short Jump
ARVIN, Calif. UPI — Parachute jump instructor William Rogers, 37, of Santa Monica jumped from a three-foot-high table to demonstrate safe landing techniques—and broke his leg.
THE ARTIST may know his art In this painting on display at an art show at the Press Club of Cleveland, but he certainly doesn’t know his golf. It’s a painting of a golf tournament scoreboard, and it shows Littler getting consecutive holes-in-one, on a par 4 and a par 5 hole. Par 5s are at least 470 yards. And Bayer is carded a hole-in-one on a hole on which Palmer and Sanders get 5s, almost equally ridiculous. The big smile is club manager Aileen Green’s.

WASHINGTON UPI — The Johnson administration is sticking to Its determination to pursue a “limited war” in Viet Nam, despite heavy pressure from both “Hawks” and “Doves.” Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara made that plain Monday when he ruled out—for the time being, at least—U. S. bombing of the Hanoi industrial complex and the mining of the port of Haiphong in Communist North Viet Nam.
No Need For Drastic Steps WASHINGTON UPI — Commerce Secretary John T. Connor told busmess leaders Monday he sees no need now for "drastic measures on an emergency basis” to prevent inflation. Connor did not refer specifically to a tax increase—which some economists believe is needed to restrain inflation—or to direct controls over wages and prices by the government. Businessmen generally are opposed to tax increases but are even more against controls, which they regard as the most drastic form of anti-inflation medicine. Connor warned that “we can get into real trouble” unless business defers some capital construction projects until manpower end materials are in more plentiful supply. Addressing the U. S. Chamber of Commerce at its annual meeting, Connor appealed to business men to hold down prices even in the face of rising costs. Looking at the “facts” of the economy, Connor said, “I don’t think they are cause for undue alarm any more than they are cause for complacency. “I think they indicate we must be especially watchful and ready to act if necessary, but they do not, in my opinion, call for drastic measures on an emergency basis at this time.” Connor said he was hopeful that prices would not be rising so fast later in the year.
At the same time, however, he vowed the United States would continue its gradual buildup of military strength to meet what he described as a stepped-up rate of infiltration of Communist men and material from the North. McNamara and Undersecretary of State George W. Ball answered foreign policy ques-
tions at a meeting of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. McNamara acknowledged that recent political disorders in South Viet Nam had reduced military operations against the Communists, but he said they now were getting back to the rate of the first three months of this year. The Pentagon chief said min-
ing of Haiphong port, a step which has been urged by some congressmen, would not be worth the risk it entailed at this time. The secretary obviously had in mind tlr possible consequences if Soviet or other vessels should be damaged or destroyed as the result of such action.
3 More Killed In State Traffic By United Prut International Three deaths Monday, two of them in a single accident, raised Indiana’s 1966 fatality toll to at least 465 compared with 432 a year ago today. Mrs. Mildred Webster, 54,
R. R. 1, Hanover, and her daughter, Linda, 15, were killed when a semi-tanker loaded with 6,000 gallons of chemicals slammed head-on into their car on Indiana 56-62 near Hanover. Police said the accident occurred when the driver of the tanker, Charles D. Richardson, 33, Pleasure Ridge Park, Ky., swerved to avoid a car which
had slowed in front of him tc make a turn. Officers said Richardson would be charged with reckless homicide. Phillip Orcutt, 22, Walkerton, was killed Monday when , hi? car skidded out of control on Indiana 104 south of Stilwell in LaPorte County and crashed into a tree.
