Federal Marshals during rioting at "Ole Miss" over the admission of Negro student James H. Mereedith, will be heard behind closed doors.
It will be made available to the public when a copy of the transcript is placed on file in the Federal District Clerk's office here.
CYRIL T. FANECA JR., of Handsboro, named McShane and Deputy U.S. Atty, Gen. Nicholas Katzenbach as defendants in his suit against the Federal Government. Faneca claims his constitutional rights were violated by Federal Marshals during the Sept. 30 rioting at Oxford.
Federal Judge Harold Cox last month ordered McShane to appear so he would be available to Faneca's attorneys for questioning. Cox told Faneca to put in an appearance tomorrow to answer questions and submit a deposition to Justice Department attorneys.
Cox granted McShane immunity from arrest by state officers during his stay in Mississippi. McShane has been indicted by a Grand Jury at Oxford on a charge of inciting the rioting that accompanied the admission of Meredith.
FANECA'S SUIT contends he was assaulted by marshals without provocation as he and his date walked on the campus during the rioting which claimed two lives and injured hundreds of others.
The student said he was not near the fighting but six or eight marshals broke away from a crowd and shot tear gas at him and the coed.
Federal officials have said McShane gave the orders to shoot tear gas when rioters refused to disperse and began throwing objects at the marshals. State leaders have charged that the tear gas was unwarranted and inflamed the crowds to full-scale rioting.

The Old, Old Story: Scorned but Richer
A foreign student felt frustrated and disappointed when his date did not show up last night. He waited for her in her residential hall for a long time and finally gave up.
He said this was the first time he had been in a situation like this during his stay in the United States.
He felt somewhat "strange and insulted."

Corps Trainees Finish Study
As snow flurries swirl around the campus. Peace Corps trainees are beginning to think about Costa Rica — its grassy dairylands, rolling hills and age-old forests.
The 29 trainees preparing at KU for teaching positions in Costa Rican secondary and higher education, are winding up their studies and activities this month.
GRADUATION EXERCISES Dec. 21 will complete the trainees' eight weeks of intensive preparation in technical subjects, world affairs and communism, Latin American and American studies, and health, medical and physical training.
Thomas M. Gale, assistant professor of history and Corps project director, said he hopes Samuel Babbitt, of Washington, D.C., Corps
director of the division of universities, will give the graduation address.
THE CORPS group will travel to Independence, Mo., tomorrow to visit with former President Truman.
Nicholas V. McCausland, of Washington, D.C., State Department officer in charge of Bolivian affairs, arrived last night to speak to the trainees.
Gonzalo J. Facio, Costa Rican ambassador to the United States, will speak to the group Dec. 18. Ambassador Facio is also the chairman of the Organization of American States.
PATRONIZE YOUR ADVERTISERS
Please Help Me Prove Something!
In a great many state university cities throughout the nation, theatre presentation of Art and Foreign productions has proved to be most popular with the university patronage. In some localities it has met with overwhelming response.
We at the Varsity Theatre have been encouraged recently, both by students and solicitations of other local groups of discerning entertainment-seekers, to launch such a presentation of prestige pictures periodically in Lawrence.
We want you to know that our utmost desire is to bring to Lawrence the type of entertainment which will please the most people.
BUT, here is one thing which is most important in making such a mode of presentation a permanent feature in the Lawrence Varsity and that is PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE. In order for us to continue to seek and bring this type of unusual attraction on a consistently regular basis, we must have a gratifying response from YOU, the public. (In other words, the picture must justify the engagement at the box-office.)
Truly we are excited about the prospects of bringing these attractions to Lawrence. It will fill a cultural service and, if successful, a series or festival of attractions is in the planning stage for a late winter or early spring showing.
A LOT DEPENDS ON THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE TRIAL ATTRACIONS. I HAVE GONE ON RECORD WITH MY COMPANY THAT LAWRENCE WILL SUPPORT THIS KIND OF MOTION PICTURE, THAT THERE ARE A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF DISCRIMINATING PATRONS IN THIS COMMUNITY TO MAKE IT SUCCEED.
I HOPE I'M RIGHT . . . PLEASE HELP ME PROVE IT! THANK YOU!
Sincerely,
(Commonwealth City Manager)
