CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER BEND 59th Year Court delays actions until fall session WASHINGTON (UPI) Thj Supreme Court, sitting temporar ily wiw eight justices, today put off actions on about a dozen cases until next fall, presumably because it is evenly divided on uiem. Among those shelved for the present term were cases from Virginia and Florida involving state actions against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The court was reduced to membership of eight by the resig nation of Justice Charles Evans Whittaker because of ill health. His successor, Byron White, will not take his seat until confirmed by the Senate. Chief Justice Earl Warren for mally informed the court of Whit taker s retirement at today's ses sion. He expressed the regrets of the justice and voiced hope that Whittaker would make a com plete recovery. Up One Notch As the Justices filed in today to hand down decisions, Justice Potter btewart moved up one notch nearer Warren's right, as suming the position previously held by whittaker. One of the cases postponed uxt- til the next term in the fall was a Virginia appeal brought by the NAACP challenging a state stat ute regulating the practice of law. State courts interpreted the law to mean that the NAACP is en gaged "in the unlawful solicitation of legal business. The association said the state was trying to hamstring NAACP work in school segregation cases. In the Florida case, the Rev. Theodore R. Gibson, Miami, re fused to bring association records with him to the legislative inves tigation committee in Tallahassee in 1959. He was convicted of con tempt.

The government radio offered to hold a plebiscite to decide whether Syria should unite with " the liberated Arab countries and especially Egypt" on a sound basis that would avoid the "mis takes of the past." Damascus-based army units surrounded the Syrian capital this morning, leaving helmeted police, armed with rifles and machine guns, to maintain order in the city. By order of the army command, meetings of more than five per sons were banned and an 8 p.m.- to 5 a.m. curfew was imposed. All borders, harbors and air ports were closed.

Officers in northern Syria ap parently were dissatisfied with the Damascus command's vague ly worded offer of friendship with Egypt and wanted an outright re turn either to union with the U.A.R. or federation with it. The rebellious northern officers. calling themselves the "Free Of ficers' Committee," broadcast their appeals over Aleppo radio. They condemned those in the army who were responsible for breaking up Nasser's U.A.R.

Soviet cosmojouts Yuri Gaga Stolen ladder used to scale 40-foot wall SAN QUENTIN, Calif. (UPI1- Five minimum security convicts at San Quentin Prison broke out of the state penal insitution early today by scaling a 40-foot wall with a stolen ladder and made good their escape, prison officials said. San Quentin officers, in addi tion to highway patolmen, local police and Marin County sheriff's deputies, launched a search for the men. Warden Fred Dickson said the men, three of them serving light sentences, were working the night shift in the textile mill. He said they used two large screwdrivers to break into a locked room and steal a 40-foot extension ladder. Except for the screwdrivers. It was believed that the men were unarmed. They were wearing prison denim uniforms. Sine Early 40's It was the biggest escape at the 446-man prison, according to guards and prison officials, since the early 1940s. In January, 1962, three men escaped by hiding in a garbage truck. All three were recaptured. Dickson said the men were working with 56. other minimum security prisoners in an industrial area outside the main prison wall but inside the 40-oot concrete wall. No guards were posted at towers on the 40-foot wall. There were two foremen super vising the textue workers, but Dickson said the noise of the looms probably enabled the men to break a lock into the smaller room and take the ladder. They also broke a chain which was attached to the ladder, he said. Men Identified The men were identified as James Spatola, 31, serving a five-year to life sentence from Santa Clara County; James Du bois, 29, serving 5 years to life from Los Angeles; Kenneth E. Adams, 31, serving 6 months to 5 years from Stanislaus County; John Rucker, 31, 6 months to 10 years from Fresno County, and Graham Yoark, 27, 6 months to 15 years from Los Angeles. Spatola and Dubois were con victed of first degree robbery. Rucker of grand theft, Roark of burglary, and Adams was sen tenced as a parole violator.
