Check Passer
Sees Parole
Disappear
!
59. j
A convicted check writer who
once broke parole but was given
another chance watched his parole
disappear once again in circuit
court Tuesday.
Standing before Judge David R.
vandenberg was Lew Hatlield, a
bricklayer, of 518 Owens Street.
He had been arrested for drunken
driving, a violation of his parole
conditions.
Hatfield had been placed on pro
bation last November, following his
arrest for writing bad checks. He
violated probation a month later
but was given another chance. In
court Tuesday, he admitted he had
broken probation conditions early
this month, for the first time since
last December.
He admitted he had lct home
September 8 after a fight with his
wife whom he accused of constant
nagging. He bought gas here with
a $5.30 check that bounced, wrote
another $20 check for gas and
money in Eugene, which bounced,
and headed for Seattle.
Not far over the Washington bor
der, Hatfield was stopped by state
police for failing to dim his head
lights. Officers noticed liquor on
his breath and subsequently
charged him with drunken driving.
Hatfield told Judge Vandenberg
he had been under' a doctor's care
lor three months, that he had paid
his bills and was "doing all right"
until domestic troubles led him
toward drinking again. He asked
the judge for still another chance,
and said drinking "was a disease.
I wish I could shake it."
Asked by the judge if this meant
he had a mental condition, Hat
field said it did not. Judge Van
denberg reminded Hatfield he had
been given ample opportunities to
reform, and had failed the trust
placed in him.
The judge revoked his probation
and set sentencing for 10 a m
Monday, October 6.

Discipline
Due Officer
MILWAUKIE (AP) - Veteran
state policeman Robert Wamplcr
has been ordered to appear before
a disciplinary board and State
Rep. Richard Groener (D-Milwau-
kie) said the action stems from
criticism of a quota arrest sys
tem. Groener recently demanded
that State Police Supt. H. G.
Maison be fired because of an
order which he said required all
state policemen to make a certain
number of traffic arrests.
At the time Groener made his
demand he said he had proof to
back up his charge that the quota
arrest system was in ellect.
Groener said Tuesday that
Wamplcr was not involved in the
accusations he had made against
Maison but that Maison had prob
ably thought he was because the
patrolman had 'accompanied Gro
ener to the governor's oliice when
the accusation first was made.
Maison who will neither con
firm nor deny that a quota arrest
system is in effect said that
Groener s accusations were not
the basis for action against Warn-
pier. "There is no member of this
department under fire for the
statements made by Groener.
Any member of this department
under d i s c 1 p I i n a ry action is
brought under this action by just
cause." Maison said.
Wampler also denied he had
anything to do with Groener's ac
cusations. He said he had been
called before Maison who told
him he would face written char
ges before a board composed of a
superintendent and two captains
of the state police.
Groener said this would be a
kangeroo court."

School Firm
Has New Plan
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) -Dr.
T. J. Raney, head of the Little
Rock Private School Corp., prom
ised a new plan today for the
city's four high schools, closed
nearly five weeks because of inte
gration strife.
Others, however, cast doubt on
any private school plan. "We are
at the end of the line, said a
source close to Gov. Orval E. Fau
bus. The private group sought to
open the' schools Tuesday. They
did not do so alter receiving court
orders nullifying a lease of school
properties by the corporation.
Meanwhile, Stale Education
Commissioner Arch Ford revealed
his department has cut off state
aid to the Little Rock school dis
trict.
The department withheld the
funds, he said, pending outcome
of a federal court hearing next
.Monday on a temporary injunction
to keep the School Board from
leasing the four high schools to
the private group. Withholding of
lunds irom the district is required
by the school closing law under
which Faubus shut down the high
scnoois.
The restraining order blocked
plans lo open the four high schools
to Iheir approximate 3,300 students
Tuesday. Two justices of the 8th
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is

The justices, joined bv a third.

temporary injunction next step
ancr a restraining order next
Monday.
Justice M. M. Matthes of the
Circuit Court said the three orob
ably will pass on whether a three

he said, the validity of the Ar
kansas law permitting the leasing

mined. Dr. Raney officially announced
the schools would not open be
cause of the restraining order.
But he said, "We are far from,
finished. We can't give up."
Speculation here was that the
private corporation might seek to
hold classes in churches and pub
lic moldings.

rulings was not immediately ap

Arkansas private school plan, de
