(UPI) Dallas' 141 public schools, under federal court order to integrate and pro hibited by state law to do so with out a referendum, have filed suit to resolve the dilemma. In a suit filed Wednesday in 44th Civil District Court, Dallas Independent School District claimed it is not affected by two state segregation laws, but care fully pointed out it was not "bringing this suit for the purpose of declaring either ot the acts void." The schools claimed immunity from the state laws because they became effective after the U. S. Supreme Court ordered school in tegration in April, 1U54, and after the New Orleans Federal Appeals Court, in July, 1957, specifically ordered Dallas schools to inte grate "with all deliberate speed." School attorney Andrew J. Thuss said, however, that Dallas schools will not be integrated dur ing the coming school year, no matter what the outcome of the suit may be. The main law the school district seeks to avoid requires a Texas school district to receive approval in a local option election before it integrates. State law provides that if this procedure is not fol lowed the school district loses state funds, its students lose ac creditation and is trustees are liable to a misdemeanor charge. The second law stipulates that students may be segregated as to scholastic achievement and other considerations, not mentioning race, but that no students may be forced to attend an integrated school over his parens' written protest. Both laws were passed by the last legislature and became effec tive Aug. 23, 1957. Thus, the school board claims since federal courts specifically ordered Dallas school integration before the state laws became ef fective, the two Texas laws do not apply. -life fcVgRGUftDES- .; of Florida, " ' h REGION CeWRisiNe ; if,ZOO,000 ACRES OF t-hND fcND FRESH WhTSR, UNTIL ONLY 1 50 Yf&A00 CALENDAR OF EVENTS MONDAY s 7:30 p.m. Air Force Reserve Flight meet, Commission room of City Hall. 7:30 p.m., National Guard, Ann cry. 8 p.m., Knights of Pythias, KP hall.

The two lucky girls, who will fly to Brussels for free, won the trip after selection as Miss Air Force and Miss Army in contests run by the Army and Air Force Times service papers. A staggering 76,000 votes from Army personnel won the Miss Army award for Miss Kitty Miers, 23, Dallas, Tex. Miss Miers, receptionist and photographer's model, was nomi nated in the contest by her boy friend, Spl. Fred Kribs, also of Dallas, and presently serving with the U.S. Army in Friedberg, near Frankfurt. The blonde Miss Miers met Kribs in Dallas where she was acting in the Dallas Courtyard Theater production of "The Moon Is Blue. Kribsvwas doing stage- work. Now, the pair will meet in Brussels for a week as soon as the commercial airlines flight can be arranged. Also meeting in Brussels will be Miss Air Force and her airman boy friend. Sponsored by Airman George Roesner, a native-born German who went to the States in 1955, the Air Force choice is Latvian beauty Jeutrite Kvietkins, 18, Milwaukee, Wis. Jeutrite, who received 50,000 votes, is a pre-medical student at the University of Wisconsin. Remote Firing Of Bomarc Shown By AF (JAFU UANAVEKAL, Fla (UPI) The Air Force demonstrated Thursday - apparently with spec tacular success - how its ground-to- air defense missile can be fired remotely from hundreds of miles away and sent streaking into the skies after an enemy plane. . A Bomarc, now being developed into a weapon capable of carrying a nuclear warhead, was fired at a drone plane over the Atlantic after the aircraft was picked up by radar, presumably stationed somewhere along the East Coast. A technician stationed in a three-story IBM . computer center at the Air Defense Command headquarters, Kingston, N. Y., more than 1,000 miles away, pressed the buUon. that sent the missile up from the cape at a speed of two and one-half times the speed of sound. The Bomarc was set for a near miss of the drone. The Air Force said information-on.. the test was "classified" but indicated it was a success.', . OUT OUR WAY By J. R.

Leneh ,ln one of the hUMfnerm men of the town ivho oiipone the Inwlen element of the frontier settlement. , XI THE doctor, a small winner in the same, stowed avy his money. "If you want to see the town,. I'll, have a nightcap with you. Maybe two or three. I don't like to go to bed sober." Kent steered him to a saloon only a little less large and slight-! ' ly more ornate than Rley Con ' dor's Pleasure Palace. , "Ken Rud's," he told Rosser as they entered the place. "The floors are clean now, but they won't be long. Rud likes them stained with blood." . "Isn't he one of the city coun- cilmen?" NDr. Kent grunted. "I pay no attention to politics. He probably is a councilman. I expect to get Sj lot of business from here." He signaled to a scowling, dark-visaged man in a Prince Albert. The man came over. "Marshal Rosser," Kent said. "Man who owns this place, Tom Ken Rud." "Marshal Rosser?" the saloon keeper said thinly. "I was onder trie impression that Johnny Hon singer was elected marshal." ' "Never heard of him. Rosser's killed more men than Honsinger will ever get in front of his gun. "-"Doctor," Rud said, smiling icily, "you've a sharp tongue." "And it's forked," the doctor chuckled. "Two fangs, like the rattlesnake." He caught up the bottle that the bartender brought and poured himself a glass. He tapped his chest and said to Ros ser, "I'm a doctor, but I can't cure myself of t.b." "I'm not a marshal," Rosser said mildly, watching the scowl-1 ing face of Rud. "I hope that you remember that." Rud growled. "Some talk that you've been leaning your weight around. I don t thinK the town'd like that not when we've got an elected marshal and sher iff." Rosser left Rud's saloon with the doctor, but outside it devel-' oned that they went in opposite directions. Rosser walked back to the hotel. As he neared the; steps leading up to the veranda. he saw someone standing in the shadows near the door. Then a voice spoke, "Mr. Ros ser!" - Rosser climbed the stairs, took a sten to the right, out of the di rect light from inside the hotel lobby. "Mrs. Tavenner . . ." "I've been rude to you," Susan Tavenner said. "It's all right, Mrs Tavenner," said Rosser. "It isn't all right," she ex claimed poignantly. "Things haven't been well for some time. Guy's had a bad run of luck." "All gamblers have them." "GUY says that Great Plains will be a prosperous place. He he believes his luck will turn. I've heard about you, Mr. Rosser. You're an officer of the law . . ." "Not any more." , "Then why did you come to Great Plains?" Rosser hesitated. "I have a farm outside of town, a ranch, I guess you would call It. I plan to settle on it." "Then you didn't come here to to fight people like like my husband or Mr. Lonaor.'" Rosser could not restrain a weary exhalation. "Mis. Taven-j ner, did your husband ask you to question me.'- A low cry was torn from her. "You you think that?" . "What am 1 to believe? I had a a disagreement with your husband this afternoon. He then learned my identity " "What is that identity?" she demanded fiercely. "You name it, Mrs. Taven ner . . ." "All right, I will. You're a killer. They they say the worst in the history of the West. You hide behind a lawman's badge and wreak your personal ven geance against the people you dislike and that means anyone who dares to oppose you and your desires." '"You say that, Mrs. Tavenner, because your husband told you so and you love your husband." "It's the truth, isn't it?" "The truth," Rosser said, "is that I hate men of the stripe of Riley Condor . . ." "And Guy!" ! "Guy," , Rosser said, no longer trying to' conceal his contempt. "Guy Tavenner's a cheap tinhorn gambler. A man who uses his wife to " Her hand came up In the semi darkness and gave his cheek a resounding slap. "How dare you talk to me like that!" Her hand came up to strike him again, but he reached out and caught it. He found it a surprisingly strong hand and warm. - , He released her hand and, turning, walked into the hotel. -. THE next morning he stepped out upon the veranda and looked down the street. His eye caught sight of the livery stable diag onally across the street and on a sudden impulse he crossed to it. A rheumy-eyed oldster sat doz ing in a cubbyhole just inside the door. He blinked owlishly as Rosser stopped in the door. "I stopped in to look at one that Joe Leach said he'd sell mo. A bay 10 ','2 hands high. Joe said it was the fastest horse in the territory " "That's Alexander." The night hostler got to.his feet and led Rosser to a box stall. "Here he is. Leach doesn't think any more of this horse than ho does his right arm. Man plunked down $400 for him last week and Leach wouldn't even listen . , ." (To Be Continued) ..a Square Dance Planned As Part Of Umatilla Fair HERMISTON (Special) Work for the Umatilla County Fair will probably not be completed until Ihe final judging is done and the exhibits taken away. A new added attraction which has just been arranged and which will please many people, will be the square dancing slated to be held Friday night, August 15. The square dancing area will be the concrete slab adjacent to Park Hall. The dancers will start at 81 p.m. and the music will quit at 10. According to Paul Van Pat ten, arranger . of the dancing which will be done under the sponsorship of the Hi Nighters, ene top caller from Pasco has promised to handle the first hour of dancing. The caller for the second hour has not been found but Van Patten is in contact with several and promises top talent in that department. Interest in the fair has been growing in both FFA and 4-H di visions. Dean De Gorff and Vicky Rankin, exhibitors of champions last year, will be back trying to repeal. Approximately 15 FFA boys and the same number of -4-H hoys are entered in the tractor driving con tests. Rumors that a 4-H girl was interested in competing in this class are' prevalent, but to date no girl has indicated that shd will compete.
