Jupiter Test Is Good CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.

(AP) The Army has taken another big step toward making its Jupiter intermediate-range ballistic missile an operational war weapon. The 10th Jupiter blasted 1,500 miles across the Atlantic Wednesday night. The Defense Department announced the test was a complete success. The Jupiter launched was essentially the same as the rocket that will be used under tactical conditions, except that the warhead was not armed with a nuclear device. The 69-foot missile, which will provide the big push for the Army's moon rocket, is expected to be deployed in Europe next December, together with the Air Force Thor IRBM.

The shoot also coincided with presentation of a semioperational Jupiter to the first Air Force unit that actually will be assigned the weapon. Authoritative sources said Brig. Gen. John A. Barclay, commander of the Army ballistic Missile agency, was to turn the first Jupiter over to the Air Force 864th Strategic Jupiter Squadron in ceremonies at Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Ala.

The 864th will be given advanced training with the Jupiter before the unit is assigned overseas, probably on the European, continent. Newspapers reporting his story did not identify him nor the allegedly fixed show, except that it was not the defunct "Dotto" program that already Is under Investigation. told them he was paid off when he complained to program heads that a woman was being given the quiz answers in advance. Hilgemeier then complained to the Federal Communications Commission. Hilgemeier was quoted by the New York Daily News and New York Mirror as saying he was paid $1,500 as a result of his complaint to program officials.

He also was quoted as saying that a defeated woman contestant on the show received $4,000 after he informed her that her opponent had been supplied advance answers to questions. Hilgemeier's story, as published by the newspapers, was as follows: He was selected from the audience early last May to serve as a standbyto appear whenever a regular contestant was unable to do so. He was instructed to report the first time on May 20. While waiting backstage on that date he noticed a previous winner, a woman who was to make another appearance, writing in a notebook. When the woman was called to the stage she left the notebook on a table and it flipped open to the page on which she had been writing.

Correct Answers Hilgemeier glanced at the writing and then, as the show went on the air, he was surprised to learn that questions being asked her were contained in the notebook along with the correct answers. Hilgemeier ripped the material out of the notebook and later informed the defeated contestant, another woman, of what he had learned. Meanwhile, three noted winners on three other quiz shows said they had received no help of any kind whatsoever. They were Charles Van Doren, Teddy Nadler and Hank Bloomgarden. Van Doren won $143,000, Bloom.

garden $98,500 and Nadler has just piled up all time record winnings of $252.000. While Van Doren, like the others, said he received no help, he however, that "I have heard rumors of irregularities on quiz shows, but I never heard any proof." He added: "Most of the shows are absolutely on the up and up." Complaints Received In Washington, Harold G. Cow-gill, chief of the FCC's broadcast bureau, said Wednesday that complaints received by his agency are not Trade public to protect the innocent.

It was the third crucial session on school segregation within half, decade, and specifically at issue' was: Should integration at Centrall High resume forthwith, or be postponed 21,, years. That was the narrow issue but the decision could have profound effect on the whole, far flung desegregation struggle.

1 The high tribunal in 1954 had 'outlawed school segregation, and in 1955 ordered it wiped out with "all deliberate speed." Now the big question was; "What is deliberate speed?" Opposed Delay The Little Rock School Board, through its attorneys, fought hard for the 212-year delay granted by U.S. District Court judge. The NAACP hotly opposed any delay crying it would be a retreat before the kind of violence that led President Eisenhower to dispatch federal troops to Little Rock last year. And to the surprise of somebecause President Eisenhower spoke only yesterday of favoring a approachSolicitor Gen-oral J. Lee Rankin urged the tribunal to brook no delay.

Rankin is the executive branch's official spokesman in the Supreme Court. James C. Hagerty, Eisenhower's press secretary, said he saw no difference between the President's views and Rankin's. Asked whethor Eisenhower himself sees any difference, Hagerty said he hadn't 'asked the President. He promised to do so later.

General Argument Technically, Rankin's no-delay brief, filed a few hours before the court opening, was addressed to the specific situation at Little Rock. But it contained a general do-it-now argument which could apply in any situation where pub-Inc opposition to desegregation is the basis for efforts to hold off limmediate mingling of the races in classrooms. Eisenhower, in speaking of a slower approach Wednesday, added that he believed the Justice Department briefthe one filed today by Rankinwould not diverge from his own views. To a spectator, today's extra-'ordinary session seemed no different from any other except that the courtroom was completely filled, many stood in the rear, and others stood outside hopeful of Igetting in. The hearing got under way with 'Chief Justice Warren reading off the title of the proceeding.

For the most part, the justices lolled back in their high-backed chairs as if the hearing were strictly routine. Solemn stillness overhung the courtroom. The two barriers the NAACP lwants knocked down are: The order by the U.S. District 1Court in Little Rock permitting a 212-year delay in integration; and A ruling by the Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis staying its order which would void the 212- year delay.

In a related development, the placement bo ar suggested Wednesday that both the Charlottesville and Norfolk school boards let it handle the assignment of any Negro children seeking admission to white schools. "The Pupil Placement Board is ready and willing to place and assign pupils to the public schools in your school district if you will make available to it the necessary information upon which it can act," the board said in identical telegrams. "It is now and has been ready to discharge its duties pursuant to the law of Virginia." Both Norfolk and Charlottesville are under federal court orders to desegregate schools next month.

The former Air Force secretary's course could have a vital effect on the outcome of the Nov. 4 election for governor, senator and other offices. If the margin between Democratic and Republican votes is close, the votes on the Liberal Party line might decide things. Fin letter, who lost a bid for the Democratic nomination for senator, said Wednesday night he was undecided whether to accept the Liberal nomination voted him at the party's convention here Tuesday night. After meeting for an hour with leaders of the Liberal Party, Fin-letter promised to give the party his decision at a meeting tonight.

If Finletter declines the nomination, the Liberal Party could substitute Manhattan Dist. Atty. Frank S. Hogan, who was nominated for senator by the Democrats early Wednesday after a long and bitter wrangle at their state convention at Buffalo. Or they could name another fill-in nominee.
