a Western proposal for a phased suspension of nuclear weapons tests
cast grave doubt yesterday on the future of the three-power conference.
Information available in Geneva indicated, however, Khrushchev
stopped short of killing off the negotiations which have been limping
along since Oct. 31, 1958.
In a message to Washington the Soviet leader expressed dissatis-
faction with the Western plan to get a first step agreement to stop
tests on the surface, in the atmosphere to a height of 50 kilometers
(30 miles), and under water.

EAST LANSING -- Michigan
State won the batters' game, but
Michigan won the pitchers' game
in a doubleheader at Old College
Field here yesterday afternoon.
Wolverine batters had a field
day in the opener, collecting 18
hits, yet lost their second game to
the Spartans in two days for lack
of effective pitching. State com-
bed three Michigan hurlers for
15 hits and a wild 17-12 victory.
1.Bob Marcereau salvaged one
game in the weekend series of
three when he pitched the Wol-
verines to a 2-1 triumph in the
nine-inning nightcap. The 5'"
sophomore rghthander, in his
first route-going performance, al-
lowed five scattered hits.
Opponent Pitches Well
Marcereau had to be good be-
cause his mound opponent, Craig
Van Sciever, was equally effective.
The two hurlers battled to a 1-1
tie through the regulation seven
innings, and the eighth.
Two errors by Spartan center-
fielder John Russell in the ninth
proved Van Sciever's undoing.
With one out, Russell dropped
Dave Brown's deep fly to left-
center. Wilber Franklin's ground
ball to Van Sciever. resulted in a
rundown play on Brown, trapped
off second.
Russell Errs Again
Brown was eventually tagged
out, but Franklin meanwhile made,
it to second. On John Halstead's
solid single to center, Franklin
raced around third, then hesi-
tated, fearing a throw to the plate
by Russell. But Russell let the ball;
dribble through him, and Franklin
scored easily.-
Marcereau then protected his

For Lynchers
By The Associated Press 1
POPLARVILLE, Miss. - The
Federal Bureau of Investigation
directed a massive two-state search
yesterday for a band of men who'
seized an accused Negro rapist
from his unguarded jail cell here
early yesterday.
The raiders left no trace and
there was little hope of finding
Mack Charles Parker, 23-year-old
truck driver. He was accused of
having raped a young white moth-
er.
Parker was taken from the un-
guarded jail in the pre-dawn hours
by 15 or 20 men.
Five Negro prisoners watched
the kidnaping under a warning to
"keep your mouth shut." The raid-
ing party took the cell key from
Sheriff W. 0. Moody's empty of-
fice, but needed directions from
other prisoners to open Parker's
cell.
Sheriff Moody normally leaves
the jail unguarded. He continued
routine, he said, because he had
no indication feeling wa running
sians in either direction then there
is nothing left in Geneva to nego-
tiate, in the Western veiw.
When the two Western powers
advanced the proposal for a lim-
ited agreement they expressed
hope this approach would salvage
something from the all-but-dead
conference.
Advanced Proposal
President Eisenhower in a letter'
to Khrushchev on April 13 stressed
this point, saying: "In my: view
these negotiations must not be-
permitted completely to fail."
Surface, atmospheric and under-
water atomic and hydrogen weap-
onstests are relatively easy to de-
tect. For: this reason the control
machinery necessary to police a
limited ban would not need to be
as' extensive as arrangements re-
quired to handle a total halting of
tests.
There could be a marked cut-
back, for example, in the number
of on-site inspections held by mo-
bile inspection teams-a type of
control to which the Soviet Union
showed particular aversion. The
Reds felt such groups would spy
for the West.
Herter Asks,
For Unity
WASHINGTON to) -Secretary
of State Christian A. Herter was
reported resolved yesterday to
push for a united Western front
next week at his first interna-
tional conference as Secretary of
State.
At the same time, Herter and
Sen. J. William Fulbright (D-
Ark.), chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee,
agreed there is no point now to
including members of Congress in
the United States delegation to
the East-West Geneva meeting.
The State Department said that;
after an informal discussion, Her-
ter and Sen. Fulbright left the;
door open to possible Congres-
sional attendance at a later stage
if it then seemed desirable.
The Paris conference, slated to
start April 29, will bring together
the Foreign Ministers of the
United States, Britain, France and
West Germany.

Landstrom1,
Relay Team
Win at Penn
By The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA -Eeles Land-!
strom broke his own varsity out-
door record in the pole vault and
an underclassman quartet won the
two-mile relay to cap a fine all-
around Michigan performance in
the 65th edition of the Penn Re-
lays here yesterday.
Landstrom, with a jump of 14'7",
won the college division in his
specialty -and bettered the Michi-
gan record of 14'6/" which he
established three years ago.
Landstrom, as he bettered Don
Bragg's Relays mark (14'6" in
1957), joined five others in the
record-shattering day before 41,-
000 fans.
Lions Upset
Michigan's young two-mile four-
some upset Penn State after fail-
ing in three earlier attempts this
season.
The Nittany Lions led most of
the way, but Wolverine anchor-
man Tony Seth outlegged Dick
Engelbrink by about five yards.
Engelbrink took the baton with
a lead of a couple of yards and
held on right down to the last
turn. At that time, e tired and
Seth inched ahead.
Record Neared
Seth was clocked in 1:52.5 and
Engelbrink in 1:53.4 for their
half-mile legs. Michigan's com-
bined time was 7:41.0-about 10
seconds off the varsity record set
four years ago.
Michigan Captain Mamon Gib-
son, last year's vault winner,
placed second behind Landstrom
with a 14'4" leap. The vault
equaled last year's winning height,
Gibson's best outdoor effort.

THIS FALL:
Delaware
Integration
To Begin
WILMINGTON, Del. (:') - The
State Board of Education has been
ordered to integrate the races in
Delaware's public schools one
grade a year starting with the
first grade in the fall.
The order issued late Friday by
United States District Judge Caleb
R. Layton III is approximately
what the board sought.
Several Favor Move
jSeveral Negroes as individuals
and the Delaware chapter of the
National Associataion for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People had
worked for immediate integration.
Judge Layton's ruling on this
request said. "Any thought of total
and immediate integration of the
Delaware school system is out of
the question."
He spoke in the ruling of dan-
gers of "emotional strain . .. ten-
sions and the impact of integra-
tion on a predominantly Southern
society" in Delaware.
Stems from Hearings
The order stems from a series
of hearings he conducted earlier
this year. -
The state board previously had
accepted another court order that
it integrate in compliance with a
Supreme Court ruling that segre-
gation in public schools is uncon-
stitutional. The hearings were held
to determine the best method of
integration.
The Negro interests and the
NAACP brought suit against seven
of" 4" school districts that had
segregated schools.
idmit News
From Office
Angry with newsmen, Wash-
tenaw County Sheriff George A.
Petersen has put a partial black-
out on news from his department.
"We'll give what news we want,"
he declared yesterday.
Petersen was said to be upset
over an Ann Arbor News article
which said he had suspended two
deputies. He claimed the story
should not have appeared,-and
denied that he had suspended
them. He did say, however, that
he had taken them off duty for
a time.
. He noted, moreover, that the
deputies had returned to duty.
They had been taken off their
jobs during an investigation of
an incident in which they are said
to have- stood by while another
officer fought with acitizen. en
Petersen denied the story was
the specific cause of his clamping
down on the release of news from
his office. yG

MONTREAL ()-The St. Law-

canals and locks that reaches to
the Great Lakes and the heart of
the America continent, was opened
yesterday to ships from the seven
seas.
The 475 million dollar project
had been debated by the United
States and-Canadian governments
for 50 years but was completed by
15,000 workers in five years.
The 5,678 - ton Canadian Ice-

needed to crack ice.

She led at a stately pace a 35-
mile-long queue of 55 ocean-going
ships flying the flags of many na-

Car horns honked, ships blew
their whistles and hundreds of on-
lookers waved as the D'Iberville
inched into the St. Lambert Lock,
the first of seven that will lift
the convoy a total of 224 feet to
the level of Lake Ontario.
"It's a great thing to have a
deep-water canal going right to

nadian Transport Minister George

At Ogdensburg, N.Y., at the
Western end of the Massena Locks,

PARIS UP) - France gets a brand new Senate today - with new
faces, new importance and even a new official name.
The only thing that will not be changed is the meeting place-
the historic Luxembourg Palace, whose marble halls have withstood
the changes of political regimes for some 340 years.
Election of the Senate will be the final step in installation of the
new French Fifth Republic. A new president, a new government and
a new National Assembly - all with revised powers and duties -
Qalready are functioning under
new era for ports ringing the five
Great Lakes, which are in effect
transformed into the world's eighth
great sea. Eighty per cent of the.
world's shipping may now reach

then. Fu Chung, Deputy Chief
of the Red Army's political de-

a speech before the National Peo-
ple's Congress in Peiping.
Another Peiping'broadcast said
Chinese Communist troops were
sealing off the borders of Tibet to
keep the rebels in and to block any
outside help.
Peiping announced earlier this
week the uprising-that erupted in'
March had been crushed. But Fu
said "a handful of remnant rebel
bandits" fied to remote mountains
and were being wiped out.
Fu declared any "imperialists

people.
He mentioned no nations, but
Peiping propaganda in the Tibetan
uprising has warned India and the

Casts Sole No Vote
On Regulatory Act
WASHINGTON W)-The Senati
yesterday passed by an over-
whelming 90-1 margin the Ken.
nedy labor regulation bill aimec
at routing racketeers and thugs
from unions.
Sen. Barry Goldwater (R-Ariz.)
cast the lone negative vote.
Passage came a few hours aftea
approval of a toned-down substi-
tute for the McClellan Bill of
Rights amendment.-
Sponsored by Kennedy
The bill sponsored by Sen. Johr
F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) now goes
to the House, where similar legis-
lation died last year. But its back-
ers there said ;it 'has a better
chance this session. House hear-
ings on bills along the same line
already are under way.
The similar bill which the Sen-
ate passed last year was sponsored
by Sen. Kennedy and former Sen.
Irving M. Ives (R-N.Y.). It was
killed in the House. During the
succeeding months of the political
campaign Republicans and Demo-
crats sought to place on each other
the blame for its death.
The measure passed yesterday
makes the most extensive changes
in the Taft - Hartley Law since
that pact passed in 1947.
Desired by Labor
Some of these changes are
strongly desired by organized la-
bor. The AFL-CIO had said it
would fight the measure if the
changes were not retained.
The Senate adopted 35 amend-
ments and. defeated 15 in nine
days of floor debate on the bill.
Kennedy succeeded in fighting
off all major amendments he op-
posed head-on except the Bill of
Rights proposal in its original
form.
Amendment Passed
This amendment, offered by
Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark.),
chairman of the Senate rackets
committee, was put in Wednesday
by a dramatic 47-46 vote.
But the provision was consider-
ably toned down today by adop-
tion of a substitute which Sen.
Kennedy said protected the oper-
ating procedures of unions, but
still offered guarantees of basic
rights to union members. McClel-
lan also approved the substitute.
Sen. Kennedy told a reporter he
believed the bill had been strength-
ened and improved in the floor
debate, and that its chances of
final enactment into law were en-
hanced.
At the outset of the debate, he
had declared that if too many
major changes were made on the
floor, the measure might well die
again this year.
