However, Bristol received a tremendous introduction to automobile racing, as approximately 25,000 old and new racing fans witnessed the first running of the Volunteer 500. While the spectators viewing Saturday's time trials were mostly from cities in the Bristol area, fans from Winston-Salem, N. St. Albans, W. and other far-away cities drove in to the Speedway for "the big race." Bruce Hackney, drove in yesterday to add to his boast that he had "seen them all." Fireball Roberts was his favorite as he said, "He's looking pretty good and is working his way up." The Volunteer 500 was the first automobile race ever seen by Mrs.

W. C. Jones, St. Albans, W. but her husband said he had been at races at Daytona, Charlotte and Atlanta.

Nelson Stacy, Rex White and Fireball Roberts were the Janes' choices to win the race although Mrs. Jones expressed a preference for White. A man who said he had seen per cent of every automobile race run" was J. T. Carter, Winston-Salem, N.

C. Carter said he was enjoying the Volunteer 500 and Ned Jarrett was his favorite. H. L. Wiley, Bell, W.

drove in Saturday to see the time trials and stayed over for the big race. He had no particular favorite but, remarked that "they all look pretty good." A young Bristol lady, Mrs. Jimmy Rankin, 150 Grable Road, said this was her first race but "I would like to see more." Although, she missed Saturday's trials, Mrs. Rankin said she had no favorite "but I hope an area driver wins the first race."

(UPI) A 28-year-old Korean War veteran began what doctors considered a hopeless fight for life Sunday after President Kennedy arranged his homeward flight from Minnesota's Mayo Clinic.

His wife, Earline, 25, who is expecting her second child in three weeks, said she has hopes Zeman will recover despite doctors' diagnoses.

Moonlite. DRIVE-IN THEATRE Jerry Lewis 4 His funniest, biggest ever! as The Ladies Paramos hen Technicolor' Carpet Golf Open 6 P.M. CHICAGO (UPD) Tardy "freedom waders" arrived with the sun at Chicago's Rainbow Beach Sunday to be greeted by a which read "go home, Nigger." The crudely-lettered sign was inscribed on a concrete retaining wall overlooking the South Side Backstairs Who Makes President's Shirts? WASHINGTON (UPI) Backstairs at the White The question of commercialization of the White House and its occupants arises periodically as energetic purveyors of everything from rocking chairs to new hats try to cash in on the popularity and pulling power of the first family. This sort of thing has been going on for years. But the situation is a bit curious just now because of what any fair Madison Avenue man would regard as something less than consistent standards.

For instance: The household staff at the White House and the purely personal assistants of President and Mrs. Kennedy have signed promises never to sell or tell their personal accounts of what goes on inside the family while resident in the White House. For instance: Dress Designer Oleg Cassini is perfectly free to exploit to the hilt the fact that he designs many of Mrs. Kennedy's clothes. Cassini could not buy such gold-plated advertising for a million dollars.

The current "'Ladies' Home Journal" has an extensive lay-out on Cassini as "Designer to the First Lady," including a picture of the gown she wore at her recent Mount Vernon party for the visting president of Pakistan. As the story says, "a dress for any season." For instance: The maternity nurse who has ushered in the babies of virtually all members of the immediate Kennedy family has a rather intimate memoir in the current "Good Housekeeping. Thus we have a situation where the butler may not talk about serving after-dinner coffee in the White House, but the maternity nurse may sell and tell about the birth of the President's two children-because she's not on the White House staff. It should be pointed out, however, that the freedom with which designer Cassini is promoted as one of the First Lady's chief couturiers is not exactly a new White House situation. The dress and hat designers for Mrs.

Mamie Eisenhower were quite well known too. Part of this publicity for dress designers comes from natural curiosity in American women--who made the First Lady's dress? It has been a rather safe bet for a number of years that a President's wife did not make her own clothes. But in satisfying this curiosity, the door is opened to dollar value exploitation which must make other purveyors to the White House gnash their cash registers in frustration. For instance, it would be most unseemly and the trade certainly would go elsewhere if Mrs. Kennedy's grocer began spreading himself in public as the man with cauliflower honored at the White House.

Or suppose the vintner for 1600 Pennhlvania Avenue turned up in print, "He keeps the White House in hooch." If that happened, he would not vint much longer around 1600 Pennsylvania. And shudder at what probably would happen to the shoe man who proclaimed, "Our heels are in the White House." beach's concession stand sometime during the night. Some of the more than 200 police quickly painted over the sign. There were no incidents on the beach beyond occasional under. tone mutterings by a few of the whites.

Chicago's chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality had scheduled the "wade-in" to begin at 10:30 a.m. But it was an hour after that before the first of the waders arrived. Six cars brought 16 Negro and 15 white waders to the beach about the time the sun broke through clouds which dropped heavy rain on Chicago earlier in the morning. When the waders arrived there were more police on hand than bathers at the officially unsegregated but normally all white beach. However, as the mercury climbed near the 90 mark, the waders were swelled to 50 Negroes and 50 whites and the white crowd on the beach grew to an estimated 5,000 bathers.

Shortly after the first of the wade in demonstrators arrived, police obtained a can of brown paint to obliterate the six inch high black letters which advised the Negroes to "go home." Most of the white bathers ignored the demonstrators. Special To The Herald Courier URBANA, July 30 Asa C.

(UPI) The Afro-Asian bloc Sunday laid plans to force the calling of a special General Assembly session to deal with the deadlocked French-Tunisian crisis. At the same time, the United Flash Floods Hit Across Midwest Area By United Press International Flash floods left homeless in Kentucky and the Midwest was threatened by tornadoes Sunday from a weather front pressling against stagnant hot, of humid the id over the east half nation. Tornado warnings were up in parts of Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois. Severe thunderstorms were fore(cast for of Indiana.

posted Small craft warnings were for Lake Erie, where 40-mile winds were expected to whip out of thunderstorms. Ground fog lifted rapidly from the Mississippi Valley east and temperatures climbed rapidly into the 90s. Chicago, cooled early in the day by heavy rain from a line of squalls, recorded its first 90-degree temperature this month at midafternoon. Three inches of rain in 12 hours left Paintsville, all but isolated by flash floods. Water covered at least 10 homes and hundreds of persons were evacuated.

A section of the business district was under water and nearly all roads inundated. Rochester, was hit by a severe thunderstorm Sunday, accompanied by hail and 57-mile-anhour winds. The storm dropped 1.38 inches of rain. Philadelphia measured 1.44 inches of rain. Weather forecasters saw little chance of relief from the heat for any but the northernmost states, except during the thunderstorms.

States and other Western delegations hoped to bring France and Tunisia together for direct negotiations on the quarrel that erupted in fighting July 19. The dispute arose over the French naval base at Bizerte, Tunisia, that Tunisia wants removed. Liberian Ambassador Nathan Barnes issued the call for a special Assembly session Saturday, after the Security Council ended two days of debate without hope of breaking the deadlock. The Afro Asian bloc, which meets Monday, was expected to give Barnes authority to ask Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold to poll the entire U. N.

membership whether a special General Assembly session should be called. Barnes said Sunday he was confident the needed majority-50 of the 99 member-nations would support a special session. It would then be necessary for Hammarskjold to call a session within 15 days. The United States and other Western delegations wanted to delay assembly discussion until the regular 16th session opens in midSeptember. They hoped to do this by bringing France and Tunisia together for direct negotiations.

American sources expressed confidence the ice could be broken by some French "conciliatory gesture" toward Tunisian President Habib Bourguiba. Other delegations called this "wishful thinking." These delegations believed Bourguiba would settle for nothing short of a full French pill-back from occupied towns and suburbs around Bizerte, with the prospect of giving up the base itself soon. Many delegates expressed happiness over Tunisia's promise Saturday to "do nothing to aggravate the situation" pending assembly action. There was continued irritation over France's refusal to obey the Security Council pullback injunction of July 22. College President's Wife Worked Hard For Degree CHICAGO (UPI) do you study so hard? Who would dare flunk you?" a chemistry professor at Salem College in West Virginia asked Shireen Hurley, a coed.

The question was typical of the good ribbing Mrs. Hurley took when she decided to finish college at Salem this year. Her husband, Dr. K. Duane Hurley, is president of the college.

He came in for his share of ribbing, too. A trustee jokingly accused him of being too friendly with Shireen now that she was a coed and threatened to discuss the matter with the dean of women. Unperturbed, Mrs. Hurley stayed in school and earned her bachelor, of arts degree some 20 years and four children after leaving college in her junior year. Her husband conferred the degree.

In Chicago on a tour for the Council for the Advancement of Small Colleges, the Hurleys admitted to some initial qualms about her going back to college after so many years away, particularly with Hurley heading the college. "But everyone just seemed to accept it," Mrs. Hurley said. "One or two professors looked uncomfortable when I signed up for their courses, but after a bit, they got the idea I wasn't there to spy on them." Johnny (Continued from Page One) Johnson again set a torrid for six laps before Nelson Stacy of Cincinnati, Ohio, driving a '61 Ford, rammed into the second turn guard rail and was hit by Johnson. He managed to hold on until lap 225 when he went to the pits with a smoking engine.

He never again led. After Johnson went to the pits, Rex White, Grand National Champion of Spartanburg, S. in a '61 Chevy, took over the lead and held it until he blew his engine on the 267th lap. engine blew in the third turn, and the tremendous loss of horsepower caused White's car to go into a spin. Oil was spilled on the track and the caution flag was again lowered in order for the maintenance crew to clean it up.

Smith grabbed the lead when White left the race and never gave it up throughout the course of the afternoon. Allen took over for Smith on lap 291, and had a lead of six laps over the second place car built up by the end of 425 laps. Johnson was clocked at the fastest speeds of the afternoon. Before the caution flag became very common, he was clocked at nearly 77 miles per hour average. David Pearson of Spartanburg, S.

who wals driving a Pontiac, was eliminated from the race with engine trouble on lap 202. He took over for Johnson on lap 225 and was out with that car at the end of 360 laps. The fans got plenty of excitement for the money. Herb Tillman of Charlotte, N. driving a 61 Chevy, spun out four times and was finally relieved by Buddy Baker, who spun out Ken Rush of High Point, N.

in a 59 Ford, came out of the third turn late in the race, spun out with a blown tire, and hit the pit guard rail head-on. The car was damaged heavily. Rush was uninjured. Ned Jarrett of Conover, N. the present Grand National point standing leader, finished third in his '61 Chevy.

Jarrett was 258 points ahead of second place man, Rex White, at the start of yesterday's activities. The third place finish increased his margin to 918 points. Richard Petty was a big favorite with the fans, and could have possibly lost the race when he made a three-minute pit stop during the time he was a major contender. Most pit stops averaged 40 seconds. Sherman Utsman, the Bluff City veteran, was turning the track at high speeds throughout the afternoon, however, he made frequent pit stops.

The race lasted three hours and 39 minutes. In pre-race activities, the Tennessee High School Vanking Band marched around the track, initiating the event. Miss America, Miss Volunteer 500, Miss Firebird and Miss Holiday Inn rode in the speedway cars. Bill 1 France, president of NASCAR, Bristol International Speedway officials, and several other persons also took part in pre-race ceremonies, welcoming the fans to the new million dollarplus speedway.

HOPELESS CRIPPLE NOW SUPPORTS HER FAMILY Eighteen year-old Yael, mentally re tarded, partially deaf, victim of disease, was discovered living with her impoverished family in a small town in Israel.

She was given successful treatment that took time. Back with her family now, she's not completely recovered, but healthier, happier and with skills to support herself, her brothers and sisters. Yael's road to recovery was paved directly by the support Americans give to their faith's Overseas Aid Program. While this case is Jewish, all three faiths-Protestant, Catholic and Jewish- -maintain such programs. They provide shelter, medicine, food, education, tools and equipment.

Next time you are asked to support your faith's Overseas Aid Program, remember "hopeless" Yael.

"I didn't dare give them the chance. I was afraid of shaming my husband if I didn't do well." Somehow, she found time for extra curricular activities, too, particularly with the college choir.

She won election to "Who's Who Among American College and University Students," and was runnerup for yearbook queen at Salem. In retrospect, Mrs. Hurley wonders how she managed to go back to college full and care for three school age daughters. Have more family fun in '61 with an HFC Traveloan.
