Voters May Get to Vote on Gambling
LITTLE ROCK IM The question of whether to toss the legalized gambling proposal into Arkansas voters may be decided today after the Legislature adjourns for the weekend. A joint Senate House committee will consider it with other constitutional amendments. Senator Yingling said the committee probably would vote to place the measure on the 1458 election ballot despite earlier doubts. Senators Hurst and Representatives Wolf and Smith, all of Hot Springs, introduced the proposal as legal gambling prospects faded. The plan would limit gambling in Garland County and, if adopted, would require extra legislation to take effect.

ALCORN Miss AB The 570 students of Alcorn A M state college for Negroes quit today in protest against a professor who used white supremacist epithets. Student President Melwitt said the student body voted unanimously to leave, forcing the six year old college to close rather than accept a state college board ultimatum to end the half week classroom boycott. Students demanded the dismissal of history professor Clennon King for articles criticizing organized movements to overthrow segregation. King defended his Uncle Tom label as misunderstood and said he would resign if paid through the term.
