SCHOOL PROTEST: W ite Boycott Cuts Attendance NEW YORK (I)-More than a million youngsters were summon- ed back to New York's public schools yesterday, but attendanc was cut by a parents' boycott against the busing of children tc achieve racial integration. The board of education reported ; 275,638 students absent from class- rooms-some 175,000 above the normal 10 per cent absenteeism on an opening day of school. The fig- ure for yesterday was 27 per cent. White parents' groups which sponsored the planned two-day boycott had predicted 250,000 pu- pils would take part. Last winter racial integrationists kept almost half the 1.05 million students away. in one boycott and 267,000 away in a second. Citizen Protest The boycott was called to pro- test a board of education pilot plan for speeding racial integra= tion in public schools by busing some children away from their regular neighborhood schools. Pa- rochial schools with 375,000 at- tendance were not involved. ' Abstenteeism in the handful of paired schools whose pupils were bused ranged from 18 to 65 per cent. By contrast, however, Har- lem schools, which are predomi- nantly Negro, reported normal at-. tendance. And at non-affected P.S 112 in Brooklyn, virtually al? NASA Delay Gemini Project CAPE KENNEDY, Fla. (A) - The National Aeronautics and Space Administration made it1 of- ficial yesterday that there will be no manned flight in Project Gem- ini this year because of lightning and hurricanes.. It said astronauts Virgil L. Grissom and John W Young will wait until the first quarter of 1965 to make their planned three- orbit flight. This means a delay of a month or .two from the De- cember schedule. George E. Mueller, NASA asso- ciate administrator for manned space flight, gave three reasons" for the delay: a lightning strike- that damaged a Titan 2 rocket on Aug. 17 and hurricanes Cleoand Dora., The rocket was being groomed for the final unmanned flight in the Gemini program, an attempt scheduled for late September tc propel a fully-equipped spacecraft on a ballistic .ride to exaluate re- entry and recovery techniques. white, hardly a pupil showed up. and classrooms stood empty. The boycott threatened the cite with a $2.2 million loss in state aid. It is based on daily attend- ance figures over a prescribed .period of time. State Aid Loss School Superintendent' Calvir, Gross said a technicality would spare the city any penalty for the opening day boycott. But he add- ed that if it is repeated today, as planned, the loss in state aid could result. The New York Times reported that both candidates in the sena- torial election in New York have come out against the long-dis- tance busing feature of the board's plan. Robert J. Kennedy, the former U.S. attorney general, made his opposition clear during statewide campaigning last week..Sen. Ken- neth Keating (R-NY) reiterated his viewpoint on television Sun- day when he said: "I'm against long-distance busing" because it is compulsory, Board members reportedly is- sued heated reports against the candidates for turning an "edu- cational matter" into a "politica? issue." Wagner Stays Out At city hall, Mayor Robe3't F Wagner reiterated his opposition to the boycott but kept hands off He told newsmen:, "There is nothing I can do at this point s ..,It is in the jurisdic- tioni of the board of education." There is no legal segregation in New York public schools. How- ever, neighborhood racial pat- terns make some schools nearlyt all-Negro and Puetro Rican an others virtually all white. There are over 400,000 Negro and Puertc Rican children in the system. . In response to growing pres- sure from civil rights groups, the board of education this term launched a pilot plan to exchange pupils between certain heavily Ne- gro schools and. heavily white ones in the same general area.

To Hear ord id DETROIT (i') -- The United Auto Workers were still awaiting an economic offer from the Ford Motor Co. last night before decid- ing whether to set a strike dead- line in negotiations over a new contract. UAW President Walter Reuther told newsmen earlier in the day that Ford was doing some "home- work" and the union was standing by. Both Reuther and Ford Vice- President Malcolm .Denise, the company's chief negotiator, ex- pressed hope as they entered the meeting that an agreement might be reached without the pressure of a strike deadline. Reuther said that if "meaning- ful progress" is being made at the. bargaining table, there would be no necessity for setting a time and day by which a settlement must be reached to avoid a walk- out of some 125,000' Ford workers, The UAW chieftain said he would settle for nothing less than the economic package negotiated' last week with Chrysler Corp. This included pensions of up; to $400 a month as an early re- tirenment incentive, longer vacas- tions, two added holidays, increas- ed medical and hospital blenefit and other fringes. The Chrysler. agreement also. called for an increase- in relief time for some workers from the present 24 minutes a day to 3E minutes. Tr~ditionally, the first settle- ment reached in negotiations sets' the pattern for the remainder of the auto industry. The current three-year contract between Ford and the UAW orig- inally was due to expire at the' end of last month.
