Israeli forces left the strip in March, 1957, when it was agreed United Nations troops would move Gaza is part of Palestine but is under Egyptian administration.

'Scholars' Use Ghosts For Cheating NEW YORK (AP) The dis trict attorney's office has seized the books of four ghost writing lngncJes inajUQhoJhargesJhat college students and prulessors' have had theses and term papers written for them for a fee After gathering up the records of the four unidentified agencies Thursday, Dist. Atty. Frank S, Hogan said the investigation start ed about three weeks ago on in lormation from the New York World.T'elegram and Sun. Alex Benson, 32, a staff writer fur the newspaper, began an in vestigation two months ago posing as a ghost writer. His activities were known to Hogan, the news paper said, and the money Benson earned was turned over to the district attorney. Benson said his investigation disclosed: Cheating scholars pay up to $3,000 to agencies for writing thes es necessary tor doctorates, and smaller amounts for master's theses. College students pay from $50 to $350 for ghost-written term pa pers. Benson said he was paid $40 to substitute for a student at a final exam at Teachers College, an af filiate of Columbia Unicfcr&ty. Dr. Mollis L. Caswell, president of Teachers College, expressed deep concern at the charge, and said the college has its own probe under way.

He added that the professor later sent a thank-you note lo the agency and said he had received his Ph. D. on schedule. Olficials said that the ghost writing agencies also provide le gitimate ghost writing of speech- and articles, typing, editing and composing letters.
