the building late Wednesday,
calling for an end to war
research by the Stanford
Research Institute. Some of
those in the building called for a
fast, but gifts of food were
accepted, apparently gratefully,
as Thursday wore on.
Leaders reportedly aban
doned late Thursday a plan for
a “militant” strike which would
have involved physically block
ing students trying to enter
classroom buildings today. They
said they would continue a
voluntary boycott, however, in
protest of the disciplinary
action taken against 123
students after an earlier sit-in.
Only Handful
Only a handful of the 1,800
students at southern University
in New Orleans showed up for
classes Thursday after the
arrests of 27 persons during an
Incident Wednesday. The state
Board of Education promised to
dismiss all students involved
in the disorders.
At others campuses:
Indiana —Three Butler Univer
sity students were reportedly
treated for minor shotgun
wounds suffered in a sniping
incident late Thursday. Police
said the believed the shooting
was connected with a distur
bance started Wednesday night
by teen-agers.
South Carolina—Five persons
were arrested Thursday at the
Medical College Hospital in
Charleston after a struggle with
police and several rock-throwing
incidents stemming from a
hospital workers’ walkout. Some
120 persons had been arrested
since the strike began March
20.
Massachusetts—some 50 heck
lers at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology Thurs
day shouted down former
presidential adviser Walt W.
Rostow as he tried to speak
about Vietnam. Rostow then
viewed an anti-war film shown
by protesters.
SHOCKING KISS
WEMBLEY, England (UPD—
The Bradleys’ new nylon sheets
look just lovely, but they build
up such a charge of static
electricity that Tom Bradley
was nearly knocked down when
he gave his wife a good-morning
kiss.
The company that makes the
sheets advised Bradley to wear
rubber-soled slippers the next
time he kisses his wife while
she’s in bed.

Expert Says Well-To-Do
Also Suffer Malnutrition
By CRAIG A. PALMER
WASHINGTON (UPI) —A
malnutrition expert said today
that, rich and poor alike, 15 per
cent of adult women are too fat
and all segments of the
population suffer from bad
teeth.
Dr. Arnold E. Schaefer, a
who’s who biochemist, who is
chief of the U.S. Public Health
Service’s nutrition program,
said that well-to-do persons as
well as the poor suffer from
malnutrition
The affluent have such
problems as anemia, obesity
and dental difficulties, Schaefer
said in testimony and an
Interview.
Is Witness
Schaefer, secretary of the
American Institute of Nutrition,
has spent the last two days as a
witness at the Food and Drug
Administration’s nearly year
long hearings on advertising
and labeling of vitamins and
minerals.
Schafer also testified in
January before the Senate
Select Committee on Nutrition
and Related Human Needs.
Schaefer is directing a
national nutrition survey of
families whose incomes range
from SIBO a year to more than
$42,000 a year. Os the latter
group he said: "We do have
problems in them.”
Schaefer said that 18 per cent
of persons over 10 years of age
tn the Texas nutrition survey
reported they were unable to
chew some foods because of the
condition of their teeth.
“Severe dental decay occurs
in all segments of the popula
tion,” Schaefer said.
Little Change
Schaefer testified there has
been little change in the
incidence of anemia the last 30
years, with its results of
fatigue, listlessness and inabili
ty to achieve sharp physical and

In Rabun County
CLAYTON, Ga. (UPD—Fed
eral and state agents this week
uncovered 10 stills in Rabun
County after a four-day “walk
through” series of raids in the
woods and hollows of the north
east Georgia county.
One gallon of moonshine
whisky was confiscated in the
entire series. Two operators
were arrested with their set
ups, most of which were of the
“groundhog” or buried variety.
“Rabun County is one of the
best moonshine counties in the
state,” one of the federal agents
said. ‘"Hiere’s so much good,

School Aid Cuts
Same Under Nixon
ATLANTA (UPD — A State
Education Department official
says that cut-offs of federal
funds in Georgia, which is sec
ond only to Mississippi in the
number of districts losing funds,
have been made under the Nix
on administration just as force
fully as under Lyndon Johnson.
“We get just as many notices
from HEW (Department of
Health, Education and Welfare)
as we have been getting all
along,” said Deputy Supt. - lien
Smith. “The Nixon administra
tion is pushing just as hard.”
HEW has cut off funds to 35
Georgia systems, and has
served notice it will halt funds
to Bleckley and Washington
counties May 7, Smith said. He
said the systems are losing a
total of $7 million, but the funds
are really given to the state for
allocation to other school sys
tems.
In each of the cases, the
school systems have refused to
eliminate dual schools for Ne
gro and White. The government
began a push for compliance to
desegregation guidelines in 1966,
and last year declared that the
“freedom of choice” plan would
not be allowed in many cases.

Low-income school districts
have been hit the hardest,
Smith said, because the federal
funds were mostly Title One
funds under the Elementary
and Secondary Act, which pro
vides aid to school districts with
large concentrations of families
making less than $3,000 yearly.
“There is more money here
(in Title One) than it all the
rest of the federal programs put
together,” said Smith. “Ibis
way of trying to enforce the
law is really penalizing the very
people it was intended to help.”
Tn Mississippi, 38 school dis
tricts have lost their funds,
while South Carolina is third
behind Georgia, Smith said.
NUMBER GROWS
WASHINGTON (UPI) —The
number of Negroes employed

now account for 6.36 per cent of
the total work force, it said,
adding there has also been a
rise in the number of Negroes
holding jobs which pay SIO,OOO
