Harrington, Del. —(U,P)—Bryant W. Bowles, head of the National Association for the Advancement of White People and advocate of racial segregation, faced court action in two Delaware counties today because he came here from Washington to address a group of his followers.
For the second offering in its series of Films on Art, the Museum of Art presents the following program Thursday at 7:30 and 9 p.m.
"Images Medievales," a color film on art depicts medieval life in the 15th century.
"Three Paintings by Bosch," also in color, is based on the paintings in the Johnson Collection of Philadelphia, and attempts to investigate the artist and his aims, by means of the paintings.
"Altar Masterpiece," a Polish film made in 1352, deals with the altarpiece which Wit Stwosz carved for St. Mary's church in Krakow in 1489. The music, composed especially for the film, is called "Gothic Concerto" and is based on traditional Polish music.
The Museum galleries will stay open for those who come too late for the first show, or too early for the second.

Army Tells Effect Of 'Nerve Gases'
Washington — (U.P.)— The Army today disclosed the terrifying effect of powerful new "nerve gases" which can paralyze and kill a person in a matter of minutes.
The effect of the gases, far more deadly than any war gas ever produced, is to damage the central nervous system, rendering the victim helpless to control his muscles or organs.
The symptoms and defensive measures against nerve gases are reported officially for the first time in a new Army-Air Force field manual on "defense against (chemical, biological, and radiological) attack."
The manual says in "low concentrations" the gases cause a runny nose, tightness of the chest and dimness of vision. The pupils of the eye contract and there is dimmed vision for one to three days from "a minimum amount of vapor exposure."
Oklahoma led the Big Seven in both offensive and defensive records in 1953. The Sooners averaged 352.1 yards per game on offense, and held their opponents to 196.9 yards.
