Government concerning Level-

The city’s Zoning Commission
agreed to become the City Plan-
ning and Zoning Commission
and sanction the planning should
Levelland be designated to re-
ceive the grant.
Much trouble was incurred
from the Federal Government
when the plans submitted by
the city council had not been ap-
proved after a long period of
time. After notifying Congress-
man George Mahon, immediate
action was taken by the Fed-
eral Government to notify Lev-
elland of the necessary require-
ments as they passed resolut-
ions forming the commission
and appointed Hudson depart-
ment head of the project.
Final business was conducted
by outgoing Mayor J. Hugh Brad-
ley as he, with the permiss-
ion of the council, appointed
Dr. Joe Harrison to another
term as City Health Officer.
The council then commended
Dr. Harrison for his devotion
to his office and long standing
service to the city.
Bud Guest also acted at his
last council session except for
a special session in which the
council will verify the election
returns of the new members,
as he did not seek reelection
to his office of councilman.

literally blown out of his boots.
Lunch teckets and pieces of
clothing‘were strewn near the
mine entrance.
Two Doctors
Ths only two doctors in Natal,
a community of several hundred
persons, worked through the
night treating the injured. Other
doctors from nearby areas sped
to th» scene to aid. All nurses at
the 19-bed Michel-Natal District
Hospital were called on duty.
Six of the injured miners and
some of the hospital’s regular
patients were taken to Memor-

a shortage of beds.

DISGUISE TOO GOOD
Robbers Flee After
Holdup Effort Fails
I 0\DON'~ (UPI) —The un-
doing of the robbers in Brian
Harris, jewelry store was that
their disguise was too good.
The bandit trio lurched into
the store Monday, prat-falling
like vaudeville drunks and
wailing that fine old English'
p b drinking song:
“I.loyd George knew my
father.
“Father knew Lloyd George.
“Lloyd George knew my
father.
“Father knew i.loyd George.
Like they planned, the trio
was good and awful. But so
awful and so loud that owner
Harris, a rare gem of a jeweler,
winced in the back room where
he was working. By George, he
wanted no such dog’s breakfast
of a choir in his shop.

Sudden Sobering
Harris emerged from the
back room just as the trio,
suddenly sober, pointed pistols
at clerks and customers and
waved an air spray can of
anvnonia. They deminded dis-
play case contents.
Two of his employes had just
teen forced to He down when
six-foot-two Harris charged
with a roar.
He flew at the nearest bandit
who raised the ammonia can
and sprayed Harris. The bandit
was not good with the ammonia
can.
The eye-burning liquid trickl-
ed harmlessly down Harris’
cheek.
Harris grabbed a chair and
smashed it on the bandit’s head.
The robber wobbled back. His
com/ades waved their guns at
Harris.
Bellows Anew
The owner still roaring,
picked up a leg from the broken
chair, swung it about his head
and bellowed anew.
The three bandits turned and
fled. Harris followed, walloping
them on the back w ith the chair
leg.
The trio scrambled empty-
handed into a waiting Jaguar
sedan, later found to have teen
stolen. Harris teat on the
vehicle, denting and smashing it
until it rolled away,
Scotland Yard showed up and
interviewed Harris who said he
would stand for no loud singing
in his shop.
Negro Students
Schedule March
HOUSTON (UPI)— Negro stu-
dents of Texas Southern Univer-
sity and others today scheduled
an 8-to-l 0-mile march from the
campus to the courthouse as a
p-otest against the arrqgt Mon-
day night of two leads*#. #■
J. W. Biggs of the Houston
police patrol division said the
two arrested are the Rev. F. D.
Kirkpatrick and Franklin Alex-
ander, who have teen leading
unrest at largely Negro TSU
for more than a week.
They were held In $25,000
bond each, pending a hearing
today before a justice of the
p- ace. The charge was unlaw-
ful assembly.
Dancing and Singing
Kirkpr.trick and Alexander
were arrested late Monday
night when police broke up a
demonstration on Wheeler
Street near the school. Police
said about 200 Negroes were
dancing and singing, “conduct-
ing themselves In an unbecom-
ing manner.”
Kirkpatrick and Alexander
have been trying to get a stu-
dent boycott started against
TSU because of the university's
refusal to renew the contract of
an Instructor who advises a
group called Friends of the
Student Non-Violent Coordinat-
ing Committee.
Another p?xt of the protest

of university officials to let

You may be too sane to fit

even level-headed people' can

uncommon leadership in the

1. Be a mood setter. Don't

WASHINGTON (UPI) —Lud ’
Johnson Nugent and her hus-
band soon will have to face a
decision: What to name their
future child.
The President’s younger
daughter, in Washington for a
week of visiting, said Monday
that she and her husband Pat
have mulled over special names
for their first-born, expected in
June.
“But we want to wait until
the baby is born ... to see it as
an individual before deciding,”
she said.
In the past, members of the
Johnson family have leaned
toward names that tear the
LBJ brand. But as Luci
laughlingly admits, it would be
rather difficult to fit the Nugent
initial in.
She seemed happy and willing
to talk about impending mother-
hood after months of reticence.
“1 never lied or denied,” she
told reporters gaily.
She pinpointed June 17 as the
date of the stork’s arrival,give•
