Marine Hero Gets Charge Of Training New Post Created To Prevent More March Incidents WASHINGTON, May 2 OP) The job of preventing any more incidents like las4 month's punishment march drowning of six Marine Corps recruits was handed today to Major General David M. Shoup, a top combat commander and Medal of Honor winner.

Shoup was named to the new post of inspector general for recruit training. His mission is to tighten supervision of the training program. Steps to Be Taken The Marine Commandant, General Randolph McC.Pate, told a House committee yesterday that this and other steps would be taken at once as a result of the recruit drownings at Parris Island, S. C. Shoup's appointment represented a switch in plans, however.

Marine public information officers said yesterday the job would go to Major General Edward Snedeker. Today's announcement said Snedeker will retain his present post as assistant chief of staff for operations. Gives Detailed Report In giving the House Armed Services Committee a detailed Leader Still Fights Bonus For Teachers Governor Reported Unshaken in Stand After Conference HARRISBURG, May 2 Governor Leader was reported today opposed to a new plan by the Pennsylvania State Education Association to give teachers an immediate $100 cost-of-living bonus. Leader and PSEA repie-sentatives met during the day on the new proposal which also calls for giving teachers an extra $200 a year for the school year starting July 1 in addition to the automatic S200 boost they will get under a 1951 law. Holds to Position Neither the governor's office nor the PSEA would comment but sources in a position to know what went on told a newsman that the governor refused to budge from his previous position.

Leader said last month that he favored giving teachers an extra S200 a year starting July 1 provided that the state's share for financing it is not paid out until the following year. The governor has contended that the 31 million dollars appropriated in December for increased teachers' salaries is actually not available because revenue estimates from the three per cent sales tax are away down.

Beck raised the legal question of whether the commis the crimes would be given a psychiatric examination within 48 hours of arrest. The exam, by two court-appointed psychiatrists, would determine if the individual is a threat to the bodily harm of the public, a habitual offender or mentally ill. If the exam shows the prisoner fits into any of these three categories bail could be denied. The bill went back to the Senate for agreement on amendments. The bail limitations would apply to any person charged with and previously convicted of indecent assault, incest, assault with intent to commit sodomy, solicitation to commit sodomy, sodomy, assault with intent to rape and indecent The governor was expected to renew his position on the subject at a news conference tomorrow.

Stamp Fight Goes On Meanwhile, Senator John H. Dent. Senate Democratic floor leader, said that unless the stamp plan for collecting the 3 per cent sales tax is eliminated there will be no concessions on the capital stock tax. Senate Republicans have asked that Pennsylvania corporations be given the same right as out-of-state firms in paying the 5-mill capital stock tax. This option won't be granted, said Dent, unless the House GOP backs down on its insistence that the sales tax stamp plan go into effect as scheduled July 1.
