A cuffew was ordered at Cornell University where young Wacks were involved in the second such incident in tfcree days. In New City, windows were smashed at Columbia University's Low Library and Uris Mall. More than $900 worth of food was looted from the Hunter College cafeteria in a separate incident. At Cornell, a band of young blacks made a bonfire of merchandise looted Monday from the university bookstore and then broke windows and vandalized a women's dormitory lobby in a march across campus. The blacks were angry over the burning of their cultural ter during the Easter recess.

Ithaca Fire Chief Charles Weaver has said the circumstances surrounding that blaze support a theory of arson. Campus police said up to 150 persons were involved in the incident that erupted shortly after 10 p.m. Wednesday. It lasted about an hour. University President Dale R.

Corson later ordered a curfew to clear the grounds until 7 a.m. He has called for an FBI probe of the fire and offered $10,000 reward for Information leading to conviction of anyone involved in setting the blaze. Last Monday about 100 young blacks marched to the bookstore and damaged display cases and looted merchandise for an estimated loss of $4,000. It was that merchandise that fueled the bonfire, campus police said. Cornell has 14,000 students, including 350 blacks.

the vandalism at Columbia came after a speech by attorney William Kunstlef who told an audience of some 1,500 youths that he deplored bombings and window breakings as being "not the right tactics at this time." Afterward seme of the youths streamed out onto the campus and broke windows until helmeted campus police with swinging clubs broke up the melee. About 200 city police stood by but were not called in. Dr. Andrew Cordier, university president, watched the incident from the top step of Low Library. With him was Dr.

William who succeeds Cordier next Sept. 1. McGill called the demonstration "senseless" and an "anarchist display." He refused to link the incident with Kunstler's speech, saying it would be "very wrong if we tried to stop him from speaking here again." Kunstler, who defended the Chicago 7 at their conspiracy trial, is helping to defend 13 Black Panthers charged in New York with murder and bomb conspiracy. At Hunter College, a student branch of the city university, about 1,000 students disrupted classes Wednesday by blocking elevators and chaining corridor doors in a continuing protest. The demonstrators are seeking demands including a 50 per cent student voice on policymaking bodies.

Sen. Ralph Yarborough, who's running for re-election, voted against confirming Carswell but said he still wants a Southerner for the post. Yarborough's stand drew almost immediate fire from Lloyd Bentsen, who opposes the senator in the May 2 Democratic primary, and from the two Republicans vying for their party's senatorial nomination Rep. George Bush and Robert Morris. "The South is entitled to representation on the Supreme Court," Yarborough said after the Senate vote.

"However, the person nominated to represent the South must be one that Southerners can take pride "I invited the President to! consider nominating one of the outstanding Republican appointees to the federal courts in Tex- as. Two such fine jurists are Chief Judge John R. Brown of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals and Judge Joe E. fistes for the northern district of Texas." These were the reactions of the other Senate candidates: Ralph Yarborough should vote for Texas at least once in a while. The defeat was a combination of anti-South, ultra-liberal forces that think the Supreme Court is a place to write laws rather than interpret them." Bus "This was a massive defeat for the people of Texas who overwhelmingly want to have a strict cohstructionist (of the Constitution) on the court.

No one can convice me that Judge Carswell was beaten on other than political grounds. I am hopeful that the President will now make another nomination of a strict obstructionist." abuse of the power of confirmation.

1.25 75 PLUG A BRAIN GAP! WALT DISNEY PBQDUCTIQHS' ACADEMY AWARDf WINNER It's Tough To Be A Bird" By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Although Congress has acted to avert a nationwide railroad shutdown Saturday, serious labor disputes continued today in the air travel, trucking and newspaper industries. Congress approved Wednesday a bill requested by President Nixon to impose a nationwide railroad contract that was negotiated last December, but rejected by one small union. The bill imposes the contract for the rest of 1970 to avoid a shutdown, which railroads had threatened in the event of any strike action Saturday when a congressional strike ban ends. Both houses passed the bill quickly and overwhelmingly despite a warning by Rep. John D.

Dingell, that the legis- Coleman Credit Holds Meeting COLEMAN Coleman Production Credit whose territory covers Coleman, Runnels, Callahan, Taylor, Brown and Concho counties, re-elected directors Alien E. Turner of Whon and R. E. Edington of Cross Plains for additional three-year terms. The annual stockholders meeting was held Saturday at the National Guard armory in Coleman.

It has 506 stockholders. lation might be unconstitutional and could fail to prevent wildcat strikes. The Senate also approved a bill boosting salaries of postal workers and most other federal employes 6 per cent. The $2.5 billion measure survived an effort to limit the raises to postal workers and the military.

The legislation was developed in collective bargaining negotiations following the nation's first postal strike. The Federal Aviation Administration said the air traffic controllers strike was easing somewhat and plans were being made for reducing emergency flight restrictions in New York and Chicago. The agency said the 50 per cent flight quotas in the two cities were expected to be raised to 75 per cent. The normal flight quotas were reduced March 29 as the 16-day protest began causing air traffic jams. The airlines are losing $5 to $10 million a day due to the strike, according to Secor D.

Browne, chairman of the Civil Aeronautics Board. Total losses have been described as more than $50 million by the airlines. United Air Lines anounced It will lay off a total of 400 workers in Chicago and New York due to the strike. Layoffs already have developed as a result of wildcat trucker strikes, which have been starting and stopping in various cities. They include 15,000 workers idled in Detroit, and another 6,000 in Chicago.

not shown anything wrong with Judge Carswell to warrant this action, the rejection obviously political." Amid all the Carswell furore, the candidates for senator still found time to talk about other things. Bentsen, moving on from Corpus Christi to bid for votes in Port Worth, asserted that Yarborough told a falsehood last Saturday in telling Negro precinct leaders there that Bentseft once backed a separate system of veterans' hospitals for blacks. Yarborough was quoted as saying that Bentsen, while a U.S. representative in 1951, offered a bill for such a hospital setup but "he was voted down, with the help of a taxpayer revolt," and tried to do the same thing in 1952. Declaring this account was a typical Yarborough fabrication, Bentsen said, "There's not a word of truth in it." While ducking brickbats from his opponents, Yarborough welcomed some favorable comment from Senate majority leader Mike Mansfield, D-Mont.

In a speech applauding the Texan's work toward passage of a hospital construction bill Tuesday, Mansfield said, "No member of this body exceeds Sen. Yarborough when it comes to asserting effective legislative ability." Yarborough said Senate duties compelled him to cancel some campaign efforts in Texas this week but he expected to attend a dinner at Longview in his honor tonight Speaking at Bryan, Morris told a group of Republican women Wednesday night that the government's spending on social and welfare programs may exceed appropriations for defense. He said this would be true "particularly if the guaranteed annual income being pressed by my primary opponent is implemented."
