WASHINGTON <jP>—The Sen
ate passed Wednesday a bill to
ban interstate mail order sales of
rifles and shotguns.
It rejected proposals for fire
arms registration and the licens
ing of owners.
The vote on passage was 70
to 17.
The bill is similar to a meas
ure passed by the House on July
24. A Senate-House conference
committee is expected to have
little difficulty in agreeing on a
final draft.
The legislation goes only part
way to carry out President John
son’s recommendations for tight
ened firearms controls.
The Senate rejected a series
of moves to write in some form
of licensing and registration of
firearms.
Johnson had strongly urged
Congress to include such a pro
vision but both the Senate and
House rejected this.
The measure extends to rifles
and shotguns the ban on inter
state mail order sales provided
for handguns in the Crime Con
trol and Safe Streets Act passed
by Congress earlier in the year.
The Senate bill not only out
laws mail order sales of all fire
arms but also of ammunition for
shotguns, rifles, handguns and
other destructive devices.
It also prohibits over-the-
counter sales of firearms to non
residents of a state. However, a
person in one state may make a
purchase in an adjoining state if
this is legally permissible in both
states.
Sales of rifles and shotguns to
persons under 18 years of age
would be banned. The anticrime
legislation passed earlier bars
sales only of handguns to per
sons under 21.

tics for Girls and Boys, Vaulting
and Tumbling, Folk Dances in

Precisien
There is no doubt that it was
the finest exhibition of itp kind
which we have ever seen on out
campus. The delicate artistry in
the dance and flawless perform
ance of precision gymnastic
drills was beyond belief of any
one who has not seen them .y,
Francis B. McGarry, Deaf
of Instruction, East Strouds
burg State College, Penna.
Danee
By all accounts, the Danish Gym
Team which visited Louisiana
State University recently was
about the finest group of its
kind that ever came to this coun
try. In addition to the usual
gymnastic feats, spectators were
treated to a bit of ballet, a bit
of folk dancing, and quite a lot
of real artistry in a performance
by a handsome and talented
group of young people.
