In Atlanta, State Treasurer George B. Hamilton said he is withholding funds totaling $2,152,901 from the school un til a 1956 law severing state funds Iron an integrated school is clarified. Not Named ' Hamilton said he was not named in a federal injunction prohibiting the governor and the state auditor from cutting off the funds. Auditor B. E. Thrasher said the school could run for a month without the funds. A group of girls in Miss Hunters dormitory, outside which a boisterous student demonstration took place Wednesday night, accompan ied her to her first class in psychology on the main cam pus. Holmes was picked up in a residential section by Dean of Men William Tate who then took him on a leisurely ride around the campus before they went in by way of a back door of the biology build ing for classes. ' Dr. R. B. McGee, Bristol, Term., head of the zoology de partment, shook hands with Holmes at the entrance of the lab and the Negro went to a seat on the front row. ' They were greeted on cam pus late Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night with a strange mixture of courtesy, curiosity and plain rowdyism that resulted in two arrests and a rock-throwing attack on television cameramen. The two Atlanta Negroes were to have begun classes Tuesday, but they stayed in Atlanta - 70 miles to the west while Federal District Judge W. A. Boolle knocked down a section of the slate's 1956 ap propriations that would have cut off funds for the univer sity the minute the Negroes reported to class. In Washington, the Supreme Court refused to stay desegre gation of the university for another state appeal. Student leaders said Tuesday night's rowdy demonstrations were touched off as much by the Supreme Court decision as by the actual admission of the Negroes.

Teamster Officials To Appear Before Senate Committee Washington - ItiPD - Senate investigators today summoned top officials of New York Teamster Local 239 to ques tion them about alleged pay Oils to racketeers by union officials. Scheduled to testify this afternoon was Sam Goldstein, ex-president of Local 239, who was convicted of extortion and bribery in 1959 while serving as head of the 3,500-member teamster local. Chairman John L. McClel lan, D-Ark., of the Senate permanent investigating sub committee, In opening hear ings Wednesday, said the in quiry would seek to deter mine whether teamster locals in New York were under the domination of the underworld. A prime target of the sub committee was the behind-the-scenes role of racketeer Antonio (Tony Ducks) Coral lo, described by police as "one of the most prominent under world figures in the United States." The subcommittee has been unable to find Corallo to serve him with a subpoena. Hoffa to Testily McClellan said teamster President James R. Hotfa would be called to testify at the hearings which are due to end Friday. Hotfa was expected to be questioned about whether he ordered Golstcin's ouster from the union in 19S9 to save the union embarrassment after Goldstein was convicted and sentenced to a year in jail for bribery. A taped recording played at the hearing Wednesday quot ed Hoffa aides as saying the teamster boss had decreed that Goldstein has "gotta go." One of those involved in the recording quoted Hoffa as saying "I don't care if you want to steal, you want to rob, go ahead . . . just don't get caught, don't get caught . . ," Hoffa was alleged to have told them that the pressure was on due to the imminent passage by Congress of the 1959 labor reform law, and that after things "blow over," Goldstein might be returned to the union payroll. High Level Conference The recording was made by police who bugged the Jack son Heights apartment of Corallo June 30, 1959, during a high-level conference be tween Corallo and two offi cials of Local 239. The other two were Ber nard Stein, secretary-treasur er of Local 239. and Mack Tane, organizer for the local. The recording purportedly followed a trip by Tane and Stein to Washington to confer with Hoffa. Tane and Stein, under sub poena by the subcommittee, refused to answer questions, invoking the Fifth Amend ment against possible self-incrimination. They neither con firmed nor denied knowledge of the meeting. jftfrr ill upiij JJJUIVJ'J'.lOTWJH MEDFORD PAINT and Wallpaper Store 4th t Holly Dl.gon.llr Across from Poit Offict PHONE SP 2-9321 , Wt Siva 8WEt?t5TAr Curtias Wright Dow Chemical Du Pont Eastman Kodak Firestone r General Electric General Foods General Motors Georgia Pacific Graham Paige Greyhound Gull Oil Homcstake Mining Idaho Power I.
