Mother Seeks Custody Of Infant
Held As Ward Of State In Texas
CARTHAGE, Tex. (AP)-Dist.
Judge Ward Chandler said Thurs
day night he took a white bahy
from its Negro maid because the
infant "was in need of medical
care" and not because of the
maid's race.
The mother of the boy, Edna
West, accused the State of Texas
of "kidnaping" her son because
his curse, Kunella Sims, is Neero.
Mrs. West, a night club employe I
in San Francisco, Calif., asked
California Atly. Gen. Stanley
Jlosk to seek release of her son. '
David Lee, 19 months old. David'
it in a county home at Tyler, Tex.
Mrs. West said the maid went i
to Carthage to visit her mother i
and she gave her notarized per-:
mission for the child to go along, i
Judge Chandler said he learned ,
at a hearing Monday that "the!
child had a condition that could j
develop into a serious hernia that
required some particular care
and attention. Doctors testified
at the hearing.
Negroes in a rural area reported
the child's condition to authorities.
Chandler said David was made
a ward of the state "for the pro
tection of the child" because he
was "dependent and neglected."
Mrs. West planned to fly to Tex
as in an effort to regain
custody of David.
The maid said officers took (he
boy Aug, 4 from the home of her
mother, Caroline Mason, while
she was in Longview, near here.
She said she had gone there to
buy bus tickets back to San
Francisco.
In California, Mosk said the
child and the mother were Cali
fornians and the question of neg
lect is up to state authorities
there. He said the State Depart
ment of Social Welfare reported
"the mother is a suitable person
and maintains a proper home for
the child."
ile said he telegraphed Texas
Gov. Price Daniel and Atty. Gen.
Will Wilson but Texas authorities
refused to return the child to its
mother.

Director Believes Angry Actors Turn In Best TV Performances
HOLLYWOOD (AP)-For years
Ward Bond has hven taking alnise
on movie sets from John Lord, a
director who believes that angry
actors give the best perform
ances. So Bond invited Ford to direct
a "Wagon Train" episode for
NBC-TV.
'I figured I could handle the
ornery old so-and-so in my own
backyard," says Bond, ''but it's
no use. He brought along a new
TV actor with him a Michael
Morrison gave him one line and
he steals the whole show from
me."
Bond says the Ford episode will
be shown about the fifth or sixth
show of the fall season.
"All I can say is that he w as
good on TV as he is in the mov
ies." Bond. John Wayne and all
others in the Ford slock company
always speak of their discoverer
with profanity tinged with endear
ment. Bond has been a particular tar
get of Ford's through the years.
When "Wagon Tram" first went
on the arr. Ford organized a
brigade of friends to call Bond
every Wednesday evening be
tween 7:30 and 8:30 p.m.
"Ile knew 1 was home watching
'Wagon Train' ", says Ward, "it
took me a couple of programs to
get wise. Now, I just take the
phone off the hook."
Recently, I mentioned to Ford
that 1 had just talked "with your
friend. Ward Bond."
"Ward Bond has no friends,"
snapped Ford.
Bond says Ford claimed he
never had seen him on "Wagon
Train."
"I wouldn't watch that phony
Western of yours," he quoted
Ford. "Then he'd proceed to tell
me exactly what was wrong with
each episode.
"Finally. 1 told him: Mf you are
so good, why don't you come over
and direct one yourself?"
And that's how Bond got one of
the highest-paid movie directors
to make a "Wagon Tram"
episode.
