Conspicuously missing from
an anti-housing discrimination
bill approved by the Assem
bly Ways and Means commit
tee was the clause that would
provide penalties for failure
to comply with the proposed
law.
The bill's sponsor, Byron
Rumford, D - Berkeley, said
the clause was removed at the
request of his assembly col
leagues, notably Speaker
Jesse M. Unruh, who said the
Berkeley election pinpointed
the need for "more educa
tion" in the civil rights field.
But Rumford said despite
the missing penalty clause, the
Fair Employment Practices
commission could still seek in-
junctions against persons prac-i
ucillg racial ui jviigiuua uio-
crimination in housing. He !
said if the violation continued ;
the violator could be faced
with contempt of court pro
ceedings. Major opposition came from
a spokesman for the Call-
lions."
The bill, backed by Gov.
Edmund G. Brown, would al
low the FEPC to investigate
complaints about housing dis
crimination and would cover
all housing except apartments
of four units and smaller occu
pied by the owner.
Elsewhere, there were these
developments:
Decision: A superior court nainagrs
decision by a Sacramento
judge nullified neighborhood
interference with the sale of
a home in a while area to a
Negro couple. Judge William
A. White, who rendered the
decision, said he believed it
was the first case of a Cali
fornia court recognizing that
a cause of action existed
where there was unlawful in
terference based on racial dis
crimination. While ruled that Mr. and
Mrs. Lee McCoy had con
tracted with Mr. and Mrs. Ed
gar W. Duff Jr., to sell the
McCoy home in the suburbs
for $18,500. He said neighbors
persuaded the McCoys to sell
il to someone else. White or
dered the new owners to sell
the house to the Duffs and or
dered them lo pay $1,000,
damages along with another
neighbor plus $a00 punitive

THE SHAME OF THE
HUMAN RACE
One need only visit a dog
i pound or animal shelter lo be
impressed with the sad truth
that the human race in many
instances is unworthy of dos
and of other members of the
animal kingdom. Recently we
visited an animal shelter and
there were about 60 dogs
peering through the cage bars.
There would be a look of hope
in the eyes, an car went up,
the body would stiffen into
alert attention - perhaps a
familiar voice would be heard,
a familiar human scent snif
fed. Then came the inevitable
disappointment-no he's not
the one. Will he ever come?
What has happened to him?
And the dog settled back in
the corner of the cage, put its
head on its paws, and pre-
Thc Shriner and his wife tended to be unconcerned.

Smog: A team of Pasadena
; doctors reported evidence that
, lung cells exposed to smog un
dergo changes characteristics
of early phases of cancer.
The report was made by
' Drs. Donald E. Rounds and
C M Pomerate of the Pasa
dena Foundation of Medical
; Research. They said the ex
periments "show there are
sufficient carcinogens (cancer
bearing chemicals) in the at
mosphere to trigger the initial
steps towards malignancy."
They said they couldn't say
j what caused the malignancy
! "but we can say that the
changes in the? cells were
nearly identical to changes
appearing when carcinogens
arc used."
Meningitis: All 111,000 naval
training center recruits at San
Diego underwent enforced
mass medication after a new
case of meningitis was dis
covered. Dosages of sulfadiazine lab
lets for every recruit for two
days were prescribed after
discovery of the 10th case
within six weeks. Three re
cruits died and seven others
were hospitalized during two
previous outbreaks of the dis
ease beginning March 10.
Discrimination: All frater
nities and sororities at the
University of California have
been ordered to drop their dis
crimination clauses by Sept.
1, 1904.
Clark Kerr, president of the
nation's largest university,
said the fraternal groups will
not be permitted to practice
discrimination because of
race, religion or national ori
gin after the beginning of the
1064-65 school year.
The university board of re
gents adopted an anti-discrimination
policy for local frater
I nal croups in 1050. but many
chapters on the university's
seven campuses arc amiiaien
with national groups with
charier clauses banning var
ious minority groups.
Bottled: An armed would-be
bandit had to give up his at
tempt to rob a grocery store
in Whitticr after a bottle bat
tic with the store's owner
and a clerk.
The bandit faced the two

gunman fired two wild shots
