Walker was turned down by
the University on the basis of
a policy that permits entrance
of negro undergraduates only
when their academic course can-
not be pursued in the state’s
negro colleges.
Six Negroes have been turned
down by the University this
month. They planned to study
engineering or architectural
courses.

Twenty-one ex-students, in-
cluding Robert W. Calvert, As-
sociate Justice of the Supreme
Court, presented their written
petition to the State Board of
Hospitals and Special Schools.
The Texas Research League
had recommended abolishing
the orphanage and placing or-
phans in foster homes.
The Board said it has no pre-
sent intention of abolishing the
home.
State Colleges
Texas colleges need $8 million
more next year to provide first
class education for students,
recommendations of a state
committee warn.
Finance committeemen of the
Texas Commission on High
Education, created by the legis-
lature. made the report after
checking 18 state-supported col-
leges.
The money is needed to raise
the quality of education during
the school year 1955-56. The
commission also recommended
$15 million more for major re-
pairs during the period.
At present the colleges are
raising about $7 million per
school year through tuition and
other sources, the commission
said.
State Hospitals
Texans have been urged to
request their legislative repre-
sentatives to support appropria-
tions for state hospitals.
Dr. James A. Bethea, admin-
istrator for tiie board, said his
department is due to seek an
increase of at least $1 per day
per patient for care of the men-
tally ill and $2.85 a day per
Si
doni have
be an expert
m
patient for tubercular cases.
At present the state is spend-
ing $2.01 daily per patient for
mental cases and $4.15 a day
for TB patients. State hospitals
are now caring for 25,000 wards
with 6,000 employees.
Bethea said the increased ap-
propriations are being asked for
the biennium starting Sept. 1,
1955.
