AUGUST 12. 1959 Grocer Saves Falling Lad NEW YORK (API Two-year-old Stephen May toddled to a window of a third-floor Brooklyn apart ment yesterday, climbed to the ledge and hung by one arm over the sidewalk. Across the street, Benjamin Kroczak, 54, was outside his gro cery, picking up crates of milk that had just been delivered. The child screamed and Kroczak saw the boy suspended. Kroczak, wounded in a leg dur ing World War If, quickly limped across the street, removing his spectacles. Just as the grocer stationed him self below the window, Stephen let go. The boy crashed into his arras The impact caused the grocer's knees to buckle, but he held on. Neither man nor child was hurt The mother, Mrs. Jean May, 26, said she had dozen off in bed with the child playing beside her.

A ROBERT ' MITCHUM CURT JURGEliS Enemy BELQW Suiu QNmmScoPE Footur Tinin: 7i40 - 10:00 Thursday and Friday "HELL IN KOREA" PLUS- Sizzling Racial Contest Taking Shape In Harlem NEW YORK 'API A sizzlinc contest on racial issues with na tional overtones came to a climax in today's primary election in Harlem, where two Negroes sought a Democratic congression al nomination. The contest in the 16th Dist. has drawn nationwide attention as a potential gauge of Negro feelings on civil rights issues. The showdown was between Rep. Adam Clayton Powell Jr., an impassioned advocate of immedi ate racial integration, and City Councilman Karl Brown, who takes a calmer approach while working for civu rights. Powell and Brown have waged their fight in the predominantly .Negro and Democratic district al most entirely on racial issues. Their contest has drawn the most interest in the statewide Democratic and Republican pri maries to choose candidates for Congress and the State Legisla ture. Powell, 49, has served seven two year terms in Congress. He also is pastor of the Abyssinian Bap tist Church in Harlem. Brown, 55, is an editor of Life magazine. Tammany Hall, the Manhattan Democratic organization, refused to support Powell for another term this year. The reason given was that he backed President Eisen hower in the 1956 campaign. Pow ell said he did so because he liked the Eisenhower stand on civil rights better than the Democratic party's. The congressman is un der indictment on charges of in come tax evasion. Tammany Hall leaders in the 16th Dist. picked Brown to run against Powell, who has a huge and vocal following in Harlem. Powell has called Brown a "hand-picked Uncle Tom selected by the Tammany plantation bosses to work against his own people. Brown has accused Powell of rabble-rousing racism and "trea son to the Democratic party." tven u Brown should be able to beat Powell for the Democratic nomination, both men will be on the ballot at the Nov. 4 election. Powell has the backing of the Republican organization in his district given after Tammany aumpea mm. Brown has the sup port of the Liberal party, which exists only in New York state. The Republican nomination of Powell may have a substantial effect on the voting for governor and U. S. senator in November. And the size of the Powell vote in the Democratic primary will have a marked effect on Tarn many s prestige. Both parties will pick nominees for governor and U. S. senator at party conventions Aug. 25-26. In addition to today's Powell Brown contest, there are 51 pri- mary contests in the state, the only one that has drawn much at tention is the one in the 17th Con gressional Dist. of Manhattan. Robeson And Belafonie Vie In London Musical Roles LONDON (AP)-Two of the world's most famous Negro sing ers 60-year-old Paul Robeson and 31-year-old Harry Belafonte com peted in the show business co incidence of the year in London last night.

Three milos away, Belafonte made his London debut by open ing a week s engagement at the 4,000-seat Movie House. Both sang to full houses, but it was Belafonte who got the critics' plaudits. The Albert Hall audience gave Robeson a great welcome back but the critics panned him. rrom the moment he stole on stage with panther grace to the soft strumming or silhouetted gun tars, Harry Belafonte's - London debut as a singer and comedian was a completely professional tri umph, said the Daily Mail. man triumph."

JOY YOUseeiVES'' Afier Long Absence, Film Winner Back In Hollywood Beainiks Leave Haunts For Downtown Tour Of City By BOB THOMAS . AP Motion Picture Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) "I waited and waited, wondering if they would ever call me back to Holly wood again. Why wouldn't they? Did I not win an Academy Award there? I did. And still they did not call." This - was the frank, energetic talk of Katina Paxinou, who has finally been called back to Holly wood after a 10-year absence. The winner of the supporting award for her dynamic Pilar in "For Whom the Bell Tolls." she has long been cited as a victim of the so-called "Oscar jinx."

(AP) Seven Negro pupils, two more than last year, will attend a pre viously all - white elementary school here this fall. The Greensboro school board. continuing the pattern set in 1957 when the city's segregated school policy was broken, yesterday ap proved the last of the seven ap plications to enter Gillesnio Part School. The board reiected annliratmnc from 11 other Negro students to enter all-white schools. i The board meeting contrasted sharply with last year's noisy ses sion over pupil assignments. Sev eral Negroes and Ku KIux Klans men sat quietly through the ses sion. 1 jinx," sighed the handsome Greek actress. '-'All I know is they could find no pictures for me. Except when they, wanted someone to play an old bag. So here I am back again, playing another old bag." Once again she is playing a Gypsy rebel leader, this time in "The Miracle." She is happy with the meaty rdle and to be "home again (she lived here 10 years during the war and postwar years). But she is puzzled at how Hollywood has typed her. "Look at these are they pic tures of an old bag?" she asked. She displayed photos from her stage roles in London, New York and her native Athens. They were indeed quite glamorous. "I was only 37 when I played Pilar," she remarked, "and 1 was considered by many to be a beauty. But try to get the studios to see me that way!" Miss Paxinou left here a decade ngo after "Mourning Becomes Electra," which she admitted was a disaster. What does she think of Holly wood now? "It's dead, dead, dead," she ex claimed. "It is very sad to come back here and see it this way. I have gone to Romanoff s and La rue and I see no one I recognize. They are all at home, I guess Even the studios are not the same. You used to see the bustle and activity. Now they are dead." I asked her what she has been doing in the intervening years. She explained that she and her husband, actor Alexander Minotis, have a theater in Athens which is partly subsidized by the govern ment. They have put on many of the classic dramas there, as well as in London and Paris. But she was obviously pleased to be back in Hollywood. 'I was very homesick, she commented. "But I would not come back unless they asked me. By RODNEY GUILFOIL United Press International SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) One hundred neighborly Beatniks left their haunts in Beat Alley Mon day night for a tour of downtown San Francisco with flutes, bongo drums and bagels. Object of the tour was to let members of ' San Francisco's famed "Beat Generation" see how the other half lives. The other half was doing its Monday night shopping. The Beatniks set out from the Co-Existence Bagel Shop in two chartered sightseeing buses. Huge banners hung from the windows reading: "The Squaresville Tour." The first stop was the St. Fran cis Hotel. Entering by the fash ionable Post Street side, the Beat niks filed into the lobby behind a flutist and a bongo drummer. They carried signs saying: "The Beats are touring the bourgeois wasteland," and "Hi, squares, the citizens of North Beach are on tour." After making the scene at the St, Francis, the Beatniks trooped down the street into the elegant salons of I. Magnin & Co., and staged a Beat fashion show. The Beatniks paraded up and down the aisles, the women show ing the last word in black shorts black sack sweaters, long black stockings and sandals, and the men wearing smudged slacks, frayed corduroy coats, dirty shirts and beards. Occasionally the Beatniks paused to swig from bottles en closed in paper' bags. A lady Beatnik carrying a long stemmed rose said it was sherry. From Magnin s the Beatniks ad journed to Union bquare lor a spot of poetry reading. One line of verse went: We stood in the middle of the road and talked to ourselves." The audience soon included the occupants of three squad cars and a paddy wagon, iney came up to. talk to the Beatniks. The world got around: "Don't bug the fuzz." This meant, "Don't bother the cops." Then followed a visit to the lobby of the Sheraton-Palace Ho tel, where Beatnik leader trie Nord was arrested on charges of helping two teen-age girls run away from their homes. After stops at one or two other points of interest, the Beatniks re turned to the Bagel Shop to talk . . .and talk. . .and talk. . . far into the night. FBI Stays To Observe OLIVE HILL, Ky. (AP)-FBI agents said today they'll remain as "observers" while police and volunteer searchers try to solve the disappearance of Debbie Ann Greenhill. Searchers have been combing rugged, hilly terrain here since last Saturday, when the 2-year-old blonde toddler disappeared while her family settled in a new moun tain cabin. Special Agent Charles Weeks said in Louisville FBI agents have no evidence that Debbie was kidnaped. But he said four agents would offer FBI facilities to help in the search. Oil workers dragged a 54-acre lake yesterday without success. Police Chief Milt Barker said he's investigating the possibility of foul play, but added nothing worth a penny" has been found. Steel Plant Work Stopped HAMILTON, Ont. (AP) Can ada's largest steel plant stopped production today in a wage dis pute between tl)e Steel Co. of Can ada and 7,500 workers at Stelco's Hamilton plant. A strike voted last Wednesday by the local members of the United Steelworkers went into full effect during the night after an inconclusive six-hour meeting of company and union representa tives. Another meeting was sched uled today. Union officials said Liicjr iiujjcu lb nuuiu pi uuuvc a set tlement. The strikers' are seeking a set tlement similar to a 1956 package deal which gave them a 33-cent-an-hour increase. They contend the raise is justified by increased pro duction, higher company prices and profits and a need for more consumer spending power to stem the recession. The company, which usually sets the line for Canada's other steel producers, said increases would be inflationary and the steelworkers were the best paid in Canadian industry. Under the contract which expired March 31 the basic hourly pay rate was $1,734 and the average was $2.56. Stelco offered a two-year exten sion of the existing contract with some improvements in a group in surance plan. Tranquilizer Pill Forgotten; Dog .
