As University Discredit
i . •. , • f » . 7 - ■
CHARLOTTES VHUS, Vs..
June 14 (Special).—The Uni
versity of Virginia’* monthly
humor magazine, Virginia
Spectator, has been put out of
business by the executive com
mittee of the university’s gov
erning board, which had re-,
ceived complaints of obscenity
In the publication.
In a special session last night,
the three-man executive mux
mlttee of the Board of Visitors
| accepted and put into effect
I the recommendations of a
board committee which has
been studying student publlca
i ttons.
In addition to termination of
the Spectator, the recom
mendations included the crea
| tion of a board of directors,
composed of student vice presi
dents of each of the university’s
schools, to supervise the stu
dent newspaper, Cavalier Daily
The executive committee re
solved that "further publica
tion of the Virginia Spectator,
in the best Interests ol the

Builder Hacks
Wife, Kills Self
William J. Wire, 87, a re
tired Washington building con’-
I tractor, hanged himself Friday
1 night in Miami, Fla., after ap
parently trying to hack his wife
to death with a hatchet.
His wife, Mrs. Ella Reid Wire,
also 87. was in critical con
dition last night in Jackson
i Memorial Hospital, Miami, with
multiple scalp wounds and a
deep stab in the neck.
The Miami Public Safety Of
fice said Mr. Wire apparently
. . . IM- UU . k.k
attacked his wife with a hat
chet, left her for dead on her
bed. wrote two suicide notes
and then hanged himself with
a window sash cord in the ga
rage of their home.
The couple lived in Miami
Shores, an exclusive community
lust north of Miami.
Mr. Wire was the uncle ot
the late Preston Wire, well
known Washington builder, who
constructed the Wire Building
at Vermont avenue and K
street N.W., and of C. Ray
i mond Wire, 3911 Bradley lane.
Chevy Chase, socially promi
nent investor.
A neighbor and long-time
friend of the Wires in Miami
Shores. H. W. Carter, found
Mrs. Wire early yesterday. He
called police, who discovered
humor publication under the j
sponsorship of the University |
of Virginia or any student or
ganization of the university
shall be permitted only with
the consent and approval of the
president of the university or
administrative authorities dele
gated by him under such con- j
dltions and sponsorship as they j
shall deem proper in the inter
ests of the university.”
The mid-winter issue of the
Spectator came under fire from
: the university administration
after a faculty member com
plained to University President
. Colgate W. Darden, jr.. that It;
; contained obscene jokes.
A faculty investigating com
mittee appointed by Dr. Darden
\ reported that the magazine was ■
, a discredit to the university.
. The committee also criticized
issues of the Cavalier Daily
. which were harshly critical of
. Dr. Darden's investigation of
, the Spectator.
s The new board-of directors
- will meet at least once a month
to review operations of the
j j Cavalier Daily.
| Mr. Wire’s body in the garage.
Chief Stuart Senneff of
| Miami Shores police said Mr.
Wire apparently left his wife
lying on the bed and that she
then struggled into the living
room and collapsed in a chair.
The police said Mr. Wire left
two notes, one addressed to
Mr. Carter. He said both indi
cated Mr. Wire had been de
spondent over the ill health
both of himself and of his wife.
One of the notes left instruc
tions that the bodies be sent
to Washington for funeral
services and burial.
Mr. Wire had retired some
20 years ago, and the couple
moved from Washington to
Miami about 12 years ago.
They had no children.
Mr. Wire is survived by two
sisters in Washington, Mrs.
Marian Bassford, 7500 Wild
wood avenue, Takoma Park,
and Mrs. Nellie Talbott, 1452
Kanawha street, Langley Park.
A native of Frederick Coun
ty. Md, Mr. Wire worked for
the Baltimore & Ohio Rail
road in Washington before go
ing into the home building
business. The Wires lived in
Chevy Chase and later in
Green Meadows, Md., near
Four Corners.
