North Ireland
Premier Booed
On Visit To U. S.
WASHINGTON, April T. f.-P
The premier of Northern Ireland,
who was booed on his arrival in
this country, says the main purpose
of hia visit is lo renew wartime
acquaintances.
He met American servicemen
and businessmen when they were
stationed in Northern Ireland, Sir
Basil Brook said, and he wants to
see them again.
Sir Basil talked to re orters at
Natinal airport, where he was
sedately welcomed last night. It
was a sha, p contrast to the booing
and cat-calling he got in New York
a little earlier from aome 200
Irish-Americans who made plain
they regard him as a symbol of
the partition of Ireland.
Sir Basil said of the New York
demonstrations: "Those things just
don't worry me. They're entitled to
say what they like."
The pickets in New York were
deminstrating for a United Ire
land: Northern Ireland is still part
of the United Kingdom, whereas
the southern part is now a republic
with no ties to England.

Expelled Veteran Sues
College And President
ROCKY MOUNT, Va., April 7
iP) A purple-heart marine vet
eran expelled from Ferrum junior
college has filed a S-IOOOO damage
suit against the institution and its
president.
Twenty-four-year-old Garland M.

was "maliciously and wrongfully"

statement was denied to the vet.
Layton claims that Dr. Davis
grahbd him by the shoulders and
coat and said he would take him
to see the school rules when the
student was not at work on March
17. Students if physically qual
ified are required to do a cer

Dr. Davis has denied the ac

To Prevent Tragedy
LOS ANGELES, April 7 I.VU.

jotted down the license number and
then drove to a telephone and
called police.
When the police arrived, Mat

$75,000 In Stolen Gems

BEVERLY HILLS. Calif., April
7. t.-P) Two men were booked to
day on suspicion of robbery after
police said an underworld tip led
to the recovery of $75,000 in jewelry
taken a week ago in a daring day
light holdup of a jewelry store.
