Marshal Leave
Montgomery Posts
By The Associated Press
MONTGOMERY, Ala.—Federal
authorities pulled U. S. marshals
off patrol duty in riot-stricken
Montgomery Monday and left
battle-trained National Guardsmen
to keep order.
The Justice Department an
nounced in Washington that 200
more U. S. marshals wepe ordered

Roberts Wins
4th In National
Writing Contest
Bob Roberts, senior journalism
major from Kerrville, was recently
named fourth-place winner in the
first annual William Randolph
Hearst Foundation’s journalism
writing contest.
A check for $500, a gold medal
and a foundation scroll were landed
by Robert’s entires in the contest.
Winning students and colleges
were announced in Washington, D.
C,, by Pierre Salinger, White
House Press Secretary, at a Na
tional Press Club Luncheon.
Gerald B. Rankin of Stanford
University was named winning stu
dent, and The William Allen White
School of Journalism at The Uni
versity of Kansas was named win
ning school.
Following the luncheon, Rankin
and Prof. Calder M. Pickett, acting
dean of the winning journalism
school, were greeted by President
Kennedy.
They were accompanied by Ran
dolph A. Hearst, president of the
Hearst Consolidated Publications,
Inc., and a trustee of the founda
tion, and by William Randolph
Hearst, Jr., editor-in-chief of the
Hearst Newspapers.
is directing their activities, said
they will serve merely as replace
ments for 200 others being sent
home.
At the same time, federal offi
cials announced the first arrests
in the bloody outbreaks of racial
violence in Alabama which began
eight days ago.
The Justice Department said
four men were picked up by the
FBI on charges of setting fire to
a Greyhound bus at Anniston May
14. The bus was carrying “free
dom riders” on a test of southern
racial barriers.
Later that day another racially
mixed group of segregation chal
lengers was attacked by a mob in
Birmingham. Then in Montgomery
last weekend still another “freedom
riding” group ran into a wild two-
day uprising.
Montgomery lay under the calm
of an uneasy quiet Monday except
for a rash of bomb threats which
failed to materialize—one of them
at the Greyhound bus terminal
where the rioting broke out Satur
day. Police and firemen found no
explosives.
Similar telephoned threats
prompted a search of two white
schools and a downtown radio sta
tion, but they were false alarms.
An anonymous caller also threat
ened violence at the Trailways bus
station lunch counter if Negroes
are served there. The caller told
Mrs. Walter Evans,, wife of the
cafe manager, “Either close the
lunchroom or don’t serve any
Negroes. The first one to serve
a Negro will get his brains busted
out.”

and Bay City from 1936-45 and
was appointed county agricultural
agent in Matagorda County in Au
gust, 1945. He was named associ
ate horticulturist on the headquar
ters staff August 1, 1949, and hor
ticulturist May 1, 1951. He was
promoted to state agricultural
leader in September, 1954. He was
named to his present position
Sept. 1, 1957.
Hutchison has reportedly exhibi
ted outstanding leadership in con
tinuing the development in all
counties of the state of committees
to build programs based upon the
needs and desires of local people.
Results demonstrations, learning
by doing, are a major teaching
tool used by county extension
agents in carrying out the county
programs. Such demonstrations
have increased 46 percent in num
ber during the past four years.
The Superior Award winner,
through his leadership and person
al efforts, reportedly has greatly
improved the general public’s un
derstanding of the purposes and
accomplishments of the Texas Ag
ricultural Extension Service. Also,
he is directing programs of self
professional improvement for all
employees of the service in order
to make their own fields of work
more efficient and at the same
time improving the overall pro-
grams of the service.
Nationally, he has served on
many committees including chair
manships of several. He is a mem
ber of the State Agricultural Stab
ilization and Conservation Com
mittee, A&M Research Fundation
and serves as the primary agency
representative of the Extension
Service for Region V, Office of
Civil and Defense Mobilization.
Hutchison is in demand in both
Texas and nationally as a speaker.
He holds memberships in the Tex
as Agricultural Worker Associa
tion, Texas and American Voca
tional Associations and the Ameri
can Society of Horticultural Sci
ence. •
Mrs. Hutchison and their two
children were present for the pre
sentation.
