Josephine John son, died here in 1954. Surviving relatives include two daughters, Mrs. Louis Mariani, Port Angeles and Mrs. Willard Hansmier, Aberdeen. A third daughter, Mrs.

By JOE HALL WASHINGTON (AP)-Southern senators could chalk up a first- round victory in the 1960 civil rights battle today as they confidently looked forward to another Thursday in the first major vote test. Nevertheless, the likely final outcome remained same as when the firing started Feb.

passage of a bill limited essentially to voting rights but still too strong for the Southerners and too weak for ardent civil righters. The Dixie bloc won the initial round with a decision of the leaders Tuesday to call off around- the-clock sessions which had tied the Senate in knots through six all-night meetings. The 13 Southern filibusterers, using a three-team, system, demonstrated they 'could keep going handily in this, sort of marathon. One of their'number still 'was holding forth when the Senate' recessed at p.m. Tuesday.

The signal for; the. nonstop session was -the- filing by 31 senators 23 Democrats, and 8 a petition to shut off the talking marathon by invoking the cloture- rule. The vote on this is likely to come at 11 a.m. Thursday. There appeared to be no chance it would win the required votes of two- thirds of the senators present.

Both Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (Tex) and Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen (111) said the cloture move was premature and announced they would vote against it at this time, WRONG EFFECT Johnson made it clear he believes an adverse vote on cloture would merely encourage the Southerners, declaring the result "will prolong debate instead of curtailing it." The Texan raised the possibility that the liberals would not even get 50 per cent of the votes for their move. Dirksen and other Republicans who talked with Vice President Richard M. Nixon on the Senate floor Tuesday night, said afterwards he had counted himself out of any effort now to round up the needed votes for cloture.

However, it seemed certain that Johnson and Dirksen did expect to get the necessary two-thirds for cloture at some future time. Neither was willing to discuss publicly the strategy to be followed in stripping down the legislation to the point where this vote could be mustered. Some senators believe the vehicle for a successful cloture vote eventually will be the House civil rights bill when it arrives in the Senate, probably next week. That branch opens its debate on the subject Thursday. The House bill is expected to be less far-reaching than the proposals now before the Senate.

The Senate plans to continue its civil rights debate today. OLD CONTROVERSY There was a possibility of a vote on one of the strongest of the civil rights measures, a proposal to empower the attorney general to bring injunctions to enforce all types of rights. This is the old "Part III" provision which the Senate stripped out of the 1957 civil rights bill. Sen. Francis Case (R-SD) called up this proposal Tuesday to assure, that it would get one of the first Senate voting even though; pe said he was opposed His action brought protests 'fiwri the -ardent civil rights proponents, not because they oppose proposal but becase Case offered it in such a way that any senator could cut off debate by making a motion to table around-the-clock sessions began at noon Feb.

29 and continued for 157 hours with the only significant interuption occurring over Sunday. This was by far the longest such talkfest in the Senate's, history. Inquest planned in death of attorney's wife WENATCHEE (AP) A coroner's inquest was planned Wednesday in the death, officially listed as homicide, of a Leavenworth attorney's wife.

An estimated 10,000 studio em- ployes now are working on TV film series and on films by independent producers who already have come to terms with SAG. The guild has a separate contract with the studios covering production of films for television.

Due to expire March 31, it has been extended for 60 days. Before the actors' walkout Monday, TV films already were supi plying more employment than were the eight so-called theatrical pictures on which production had to be halted, the SAG said. However, TV pay rates are lower than theatrical rates. The key issue in the strike is the actors' demand for a share in the profits of post-1948 movies sold to TV. The major studios say this would be paying an actor twice for the same job.

The actors' reply, in effect, is that studios also are getting paid twice when they sell films to TV. Two efforts to end the strike were launched Tuesday. Federal mediator Jules Medoff sought to bring both sides together at the bargaining table. The guild huddled with a half- dozen craft unions to determine if their demands ior a share in TV residuals could be combined into smaller package more acceptable to the producers. Both efforts faced formidable barriers, particularly the contention by the Assn.

of Motion Picture Producers that the issue of additional payments to actors or other employes is not negotiable.

Rachel Says: A temporary repair of a leaky faucet can be made, using a piece of wrapping twine. Take a piece of sturdy wrapping twine and wrap around the pipe where the washer really belongs. If pulled tight, it really works. The twine will outlast a rubber washer, so if you do not get a new washer immediately, the situation will still be under control.
