' ' ' ' 1 SHATTKKED BY BOMBS, iMirK-n-iamara roaa on Alabama Ruling on Bus Segregation Struck by Court Washington CU-R1 Th Su premt Court today struck down an Alabama law requiring racial sgregation on intrastate buses. The court acted in a case growing out of the 1 1-month boy cott by Negroes of segregated buses in Montgomery, Ala. The boycott is still in pffect. Today's brief order upheld the, June 5 decision of a special three judge Inderal panel in Montgom ery that bun segregation require-' ments of both the city and state re unconstitutional. The order said merely: "Per curiam: The motion to affirm is praiilrd and th judgment is af lirmed." Then the court cited its historic school segregation decision of My 17, 1954, and two other cases. Tha ruling bring under a cloud similar laws in eight other slav.es, Arkansas. Florida, Geor gia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Okla homa, Tennrssee and Texas. The laws of four additional states ere struck down by federal cm!rt action last year. Today' lcg.il victory virtually completes a long fight by Negro groups tci abolish discrimination by slate and local governments in the field of transportation. Pri vate companies may still make their own segregation rules, however. Car Stt in Columbia;.

Shinoda said Monday when ar sonists are caught in his coun try: "First, you wire their hands behind their backs. Then you hang them from the wrists from tripod poles and you build a fire under them. "That's the end of the arson ists and we have very little of it. It must be remembered that arson is a very serious thing in Japan where homes of wood have silk and paper walls.'' School District !

Nomber IS, 1958 task force of the L" S fleet out by Israeli aircraft on cease - fire (International) Fruit Growers Should Watch for Field Mice C. B. Cordy, county horticul ture agent, today cautioned fruit growers to be on the look-out for field mice in their orchards. He explained that the mice often travel from piles of leaves or other debric around trees to the trees themselves, where they feed on pear bark. He said they chew off rings of bark around the trees, and the rings must later be bridge-grafted in order to save the trees. Cordy advised growers to care fully inspect trees for field mice damage since presence of the mice may not otherwise be read ily detected at a glance. If indications of field mice are found, one teaspoon of poison bait should be placed in their runway during dry weather. Cordy explained that rain washes away the poison element and it is therefore important to apply the poison in dry weather. Ap proved poison bait is available from most local dealers; he said. 4-H Club News COOKING CLUB The Antelope 4-H rooking club was called to order by Charolctle Bush, vice president, at the Jaffrcy home at Camp White on Nov. 10.
