Bowles to Cabinet Post
WASHINGTON (#l.—President-elect John F. Kennedy
dropped hints yesterday that there may be openings in the
new administration for Chester Bowles and Gov. Luther H.
Hodges of North Carolina.
But Kennedy's press secretary, Pierre Salinger, said:
"The president-elect has not
talked to any person and asked
!him to be a member of his Cabi
net."

day. The mothers lost.
Reluctantly, amid yells and
screams, the mothers broke their
mass picket line under pressure
from shoving police.

integrated schools William

held firm. Two more white chil

total of four against Monday's
two, But, at McDonogla No. 19,
for the second day no white chil- .
dren entered.
In Baton Rouge, a leader in the
administration of Gov. Jimmie H.
Davis, said a 21-member liaison
group of the Lousiana Legisla
ture had been formed. Its purpose
is to unify strategy in the fight
against integration.
One of the strategic lines may
be the boycott. A 1922 Louisiana
law says no school may he kept
open with an average attendance
of 10 or fewer..
The school board may decide
such a school may he kept open,
but this decision must be ap
priived by state officials. The
state superintendent of education,
Shelby Jackson, is an ardent and
militant segregationist.

marathon special session last

Andrews to Sponsor Bill
HARRISBURG (4 1 )—House
Speaker H. G. Andrews said
yesterday he would join in
sponsoring a bill in the 1961
legislature banning capital
punishment in Pennsylvania.
"ff they want my sponsorship,
they can have it," said the pep
pery Andrews in an interview. He
referred to organized opponents
of capital punishment.
At the same time he recom
4tnended that any legislation 'ln

a snecial committee for exam

"The report of a committee

Bowles was a breakfast guest
at the Kennedy residence in
Georgetown. Later, Kennedy
talked about Hodges with Terry
Sanford, who is succeeding Hod

Democratic Chairman Bert Ben

During the campaign, Bowles
was a foreign policy adviser to
Kennedy.
Sanford and Bennett arrived a
little after Bowles' departure and
were in• the Kennedy house for
more than an hour.
Kennedy said he had asked
Sanford to come to see him to
discuss political and economic
conditions in North Carolina.
As for Hodges. Sanford said: "I
told the senator he would be a
good man for any position."

most cases they were never re

Also there have been numer
ous proposals to extend capital
punishment to include such
crimes as narcotics sales and rape
of children. They, too, failed to
win approval.
Capital nunishment has been an
issue in Pennsylvania since Col

original Quaker settlers opposed
it, but they were overruled by.

LONDON (A') —Sir Winston
Churchill, recovering from a back
injury, skimmed over thousands
of greetings for his 86th birthday

The centerpiece for the family
birthday party, a fabulous 112-

district bakery that has been mak
ing Churchill birthday cakes for
about 20 years.
Fashioned in sugar are symbols
of many things Churchill has
done.
A big horn of plenty pours out
; the incidents, caught in colored

a symbol or two, because every
thing in this cake is digestible.
Captured in sugared sculpture
are a Churchill cigar, 10 inches
long; Rufus, the Churchill poodle

He refused to speculate on Nix
