PAGE IWU Republicans Fail to Gain Support to Cut Filibuster WASHINGTON (/P Spurred by Vice President Richard M. Nixon, Republicans tried but failed last night to rally enough strength to cut off the Senate's civil rights filibuster. What Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Illinois called an inconclusive poll of GOP members sustained the contention of Senate Democratic Leadei Lyndon B. Johnson of Texa, that there is no possibility of limiting debate now•. As the Senate went into its second week of practically non stop session Johnson called for an air•clearing vote. And there were signs that Southeiners soon may halt their talk long enough to permit a roll call on an amendment proposed by one of their number, Seri Sam J. Elvin Ji. (D -N C ). Ervin is seeking to reduce the ci 'mina! penalties pi ovided in the Eisenhower administration's civil rights bill for obstructing or trying to °listt uc•t by force or threats the call ying out of court orders in school desegregation cases Dirksen said thre was some Republican support for the Er vin proposal. It would bring this provision of the administra tion's package more nearly in line with what the House may approve when it takes up the civil rights matter later in the week. With the cots set up for fitful sleep by civil tights advocates in the round-the-clock sessions, Nix on moved in to try to jog his GOP colleagues into action. The partially filled galleries buiicd with curiosity as he turned over his presiding officer's chair to a substitute and signalled in fluential Republicans to gather around him at the rear of the oth erwiae almost deserted chamber.

Eisenhower will speak over the, radio and TV networks tonight' for 15 minutes, beginning at 7 p m. EST. The President, who had been tired and hoarse during part of the tour, looked and sounded fit on his arrival by jet airliner. Mrs. Eisenhower was not on hand, having gone to Arizona for two weeks in the sun. THE THUNDERING MARCH OF PROGRESS Today, as everyone knows, is the forty-sixth anniversary of the founding of Gransmire College for Women, which, as everyone knows, was the first Progressive Education college in the United States. Well do I recollect the tizzy in the academic world when. Gransmire opened its portals! What a buzz there was, what brouhaha in faculty common rooms, what a rattling of teacups, when Dr. Agnes Thudd Sigafoos, first president of Gransmire, lifted her learned old head and announced defiantly, "We will teach the student, not the course. There will be no marks, no exams, no requirements. This, by George, is Progressive Education !" Well sir, forward-looking maidens all over the country cast off their fetters and came rushing to New Hampshire to enroll at Gransmire. Here they found freedom. They broadened their vistas. They lengthened their horizons. They unstopped their bottled personalities. They roamed the campus in togas, lead ing ocelots on leashes. And, of course, they smoked Marlboro cigarettes. (I say, "Of course." Why do I say, "Of course"? I say, "•Of course" because it is a matter of course that anyone in search of freedom should naturally turn to Marlboro, for Marlboro is the smoke that sets the spirit soaring, that unyokes the captive soul, that fills the air with the murmur of wings. If you think flavor went out when filters came in—try Marlboro. They are sold in soft pack or flip-top box wherever freedom rings.) But all was not Marlboro and ocelots for the girls of Grans mire. There was work and study too—not in the ordinary sense, to be sure, for there were no format classes. Instead there was a broad approach to enlarging each girl's potentials, both mental and physical. Take, for example, the course called B.M.S. (Basic Motor Skills). B.M.S. was divided into L.D. (Lying Down), S.U. (Standing Up) and W. (Walking). Once the student had mas tered L.D. and S.U., she was taught to W.—but not just to W. any old way! No, sir! She was taught to W. with poise, dignity, bearing! To inculcate a sense of balance in the girl, she began her exercises by walking with a suitcase in each hand. (One girl, Mary Ellen Dorgenicht, got so good at it that today she is bell captain at the Deshler-Hilton Hotel in Columbus, Ohio.) - When the girls had walking under their belts, they were allowed to dance. Again no formality was imposed. They were simply told to fling themselves about in any way their impulses dictated, and, believe you me, it was quite an impressive sight to see them go bounding into the woods with their togas flying. (Several later joined the U.S. Forestry Service.) There was also a lot of finger painting and sculpture with coat hangers and like that, and soon the fresh wind of Progres sivism came whistling out of Gransmire to blow the ancient dust of pedantry off curricula everywhere, and today, thanks to the pioneers at Gransmire, we are all free. If you are ever in New Hampshire, be sure to visit the Grans mire campus. It is now a tannery. 0 ion Kis 811mlaaa If you like mildness but you don't like filters—try Marlboro's sister cigarette, Philip Morris.
