Reporters did not learn of his death until he was buried at St. John's Ceme tery in Queens after a requiem mass at St. Stephen's Roman Catholic Church. In sharp contrast to the elab orate funeral cortege of his broth er Albert, who was murdered last year while silling in a barber chair, there were only six mourn ers' cars and two flower cars in Jerry's cortege. The burial was strictly a family affair. Jerry, who also was the broth er of Brooklyn waterfront boss Anthony "Tough Tony" Anasta sia. was for many years business agent of Local 814 of the Inter national Longshoremen's Associa tion. He had been ill for four years. Jerry was convicted last year of lying to a special waterfront grand jury when he denied i.

Gambling Shill-Minister Stripped Of Church Rights Little Rock School Vote Focused About Faubus LITTLE ROCK, Ark. fAP) Lit tle Rock voters selected a new school board Saturday to cope with the problem of meeting local de mands' for segregation in the face of federal court orders to inte grate. Thev chose between a slate which carried the tacit backing of Gov. Orval E. Faubus and a group the governor labeled as in tegrationist. Polls opened at 8 a.m. and were scheduled lo close at 6:30 p.m. A moderate turnout was predicted. The new board members will fill the posts of five members who resigned because of the integra tion impasse and a sixth who was elected to Congress. All 13 candidates have an nounced their opposition to inte gration. Campaigning was keyed largely to the question of who was against it the strongest. Faubus, whose school-closing action touched off the current 6talemate, maintained a hands-off policy toward the election until Friday, declaring, "I don't vote In the Little Rock district." But less than 24 hours before the oolls were scheduled to open, the governor branded a slate of candidates backed by business men as "the inlegrationist slate.' He made no reference to anoth er slate, supported by the strongly prosegregatinn Capital Citizens Council. But his statement was interpreted to give tacit backing I to it. ; The candidates Faubus labeled I Inlegrationist are W. F. Rector, a real estate and insurance execu tive; Everett Tucker, an industri alist; Ted Lamb, an advertising executive; Russell H. Matson Jr.,, a building contractor, and Mrs.j Charles V. Stephens, a clubwom an. Members of the opposing slate,, which has pledged itself to sup- port Faubus, are Traffic Court Judge' R. W. Laster; C. C. Railey,1 a union business manager; Ben1 D. Rowland, attorney and former school administrator; Mrs. Paul ine Woodson, a real estate execu tive, and Mrs. Margaret Morri son, a housewife. One candidate, Ed I. McKinley Jr., is unopposed. McKinley is an attorney and a former state bank ing commissioner. He seeks the post lo he vacated when Dr. Dale Alford Jr. takes the congressional scat in January he won from Rep. Brooks Hays (D-Ark with a write in campaign in the Nov. 4 general election. Dr. George P. Branscum, a den tist, and John W. Clayton, an in surance executive, are in the race as independents. Faubus' denunciation of the businessmen-backed slale drew from pne of the slate a charge that the governor was meddling and being inconsistent. Lamb, who has served as the group's spokesman, said he was shocked at Faubus' intervention. "I remember that he has been a severe critic of outsiders' med dling in local politics," Lamb said. "He has stated he does not vole in the Little Rock School District. Therefore, I consider Faubus an outsider and by golly, he's meddling." . None of the candidates has said what he planned to do about an order of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to resume inte gration. The order directs U.S. District Judge John L. Miller of Fort Smith to take affirmative sleps to force the reopening of Little Rocks four public high schools and to bring about inte gration. The five board members who resigned did so after the appellate court issued its order early in No vember. They declared they were caught between federal and slate pressure and described their po sition as one of "hopelessness, helplessness and frustration." Little Rock's high schools did not open at all this year. Faubus ordered them shut lo avoid court- ordered integralion. All except about 600 of the 3,700 students affected are enrolled In piivate schools or public schools elsewhere. Enters Hospital After Weird Rite THE DALLES, Ore. (API- Mrs. Charlotte E.

Tulloch, who gave up the life of a Baptist minister to become a" shill in a Las Vegas gambling casino, was stripped ot ms min isterial standing Friday. The action was taken by the executive committee of the Kan- sas Baptist Convention. , In a resolution the committee said: "The circumstances associated with Maurice D. Tulloch have been carefully reviewed ... in order that Ihe Christian ministry not be lightly regarded or held in disrepute, we are led with a profound sense of sorrow to this resolution. Maurice D.
