CHARGES FILED
A felony charge of theft from

Teague this morning in the
justice court of the Brown Coun-
ty 35th District.
Court Told No
Schools to Open
Unless Leased
ST. LOUIS (UPD - The U.S.
Court of Appeals was warned to-
day that "there will be no high
school opened in Little Rock un-
less the schools are leased” as the
court took under advisement a re-
quest for an injunction to halt that
leasing.
Richard Butler, attorney for the
Little Rock School Board, told the
court that the board is arguing
neither for nor against the injunc-
tion requested by the National As-
sociation for the Advancement of
Colored People. But he said that
press statements by Gov. Orval
Faubus of Arkansas indicate the
schools will not open "under pres-
ent conditions" unless they are
leased as private, segregated in-
stitutions.
Wiley Branton. representing a
private Negro Little Rock group,
pressed for the injunction, but
asked the court to consider allow-
ing Negro students to enroll In the
private schools if tM restraining
order is lifted.
Branton also contended that, if
the Little Rock schools were
leased, the court should pass on
the lease itself.
The court adjourned and indi-
cated it would issue a statement
later today.
That statement could be the
ruling or merely an advisory to
when a ruling would be given.
U.S. Atty Donald Mac Guineas
backed up the injunction request,
and warned the court that with-
out the restraining order, the four
Little Rock high schools "would
be under private operation today.”
He said the responsibility for clos-
ing the public schools “falls
squarely on the officials of Arkan-
sas” and not on the courts that
have heard the cases.
Thurgood Marshall, NAACP at-
torney, told the court that the
question to be decided is whether
the school board has the right to
lease the schools to private or-
ganizations. He said other ac-
tions. such as Faubus' power to
close the schools and to with-
hold funds from schools, need
not be considered at this time.

quoted one of the Pope's doctors
as saying the same thing. But
other Vatican sources insisted the
Pope was speaking again.
The sacrament of Extreme Une-
tion, given to those who are dying
or in danger of death, was ad-
ministered to the Pope after the
stroke. Later, he received Holy
Communion.
Although there was word of
"improvement,” there was no dis-
counting the gravity of the attack

Eugene Cardinal Tisserant, dean

notified of the Pope's condition.
A convocation of the College of
Cardinals would be held shortly
after the death of the present Pope
to choose a successor.

Three resolutions were passed
by the Young Democratic Club ex-

Brownwood Hotel.
The meeting was the first of its
kind to be held in Brownwood. The
next meeting is to be held in Hous-
ton in November.
First resoluution passed by the
committee was commending
Brownwood for "its civic duty on
integration in Brownwood High
School in 1956 until the present
without incident.”
The committee then passed a
resolution pledging support to
Gov. Price Daniel in the Novem-
ber election.
The last resolution was "rebuk-
ing Gov. Orval Faubus on his ac-
tion in not abiding by Supreme
Court ruling on the basis of gov-
ernment by law.”
Some 30 members of the club
from all over the state attended

CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy
fUPD—Pope Pius XII suffered a
paralyzing stroke today and re-
ceived the last rites of the Roman
Catholic church. Despite grave
fears for his life, a medical bulle-
tin of the day said he had rallied
moticeably after treatment.
The medical bulletin issued at
12:39 p.m. e.d.t. said the Pope’s
condition had "sensibly improved”
after “urgent treatment."
It was the second bulletin is-
sued today.
A medical bulletin signed by
three attending physicians said
the 82-year-old spiritual leader of
the world's 450 million Roman
Catholics suffered a "cerebral cir-
culatory disturbance” at 8:30 a.m.
<2:30 a.m. e.d.t.).
This meant there had been dam-
age to the blood circulation sys-
tem of the brain—or, in layman's
language, a "stroke.” The Pope
was unconscious for a time and
two reports said that as of noon
he had not yet recovered his pow-
ens of speech.
Another medical bulletin was
promised for later in the day,
which presumably will spell out
the details of the Pope’s latest
Ainess.
“A Grave Case”
Msgr. Angelo Dellacqua, as-
distant Vatican pro - secretary of
state, told newsmen here at mid-
day that the Pope's "general
eondition" showed a "slight im-
provement.” But he added “It
naturally remains a grave case."
Dellacqua said the Pope had not
recovered his speech as of noon.

people will not be taken in. We
will continue convoys to Quemoy
in the usual pattern. I hope the
Americans will provide the con-
voy escort as in the past. Ir-
respective of this we are con-
tinuing to resupply Quemoy.”
Chiang said the Communists
were admitting their failure to
break Quemoy and said he was
"certain they will begin the sec-
ond phase in the Formosa Strait
within the next few days. It is
essential the Nationalist s and
Americans be more alert now
than before."
Sign Of Weakness
Washington officials saw in the
cease fire announcement a sign
of weakness by the Chinese Reds.
In backing down, these officials
felt. Red China hoped to stall the
massive American bulldup in the
Formosa area.
American officials said the Chi-
nese Communists’ action was a
"helpful sign" in the Formosa
crisis "as far as it goes," but
they were cautious In assessing
the new Red overture.
