(AP) The state of Maryland has asked Virginia for the speedy extradition of Black Power advocate H. Rap Brown to Cambridge, where he is charged with inciting to arson and riot.

Maryland's Attorney Gen. Francis B. Burch made the request at the conclusion of a 45-minute hearing at which Brown's counsel challenged every move to give the Free State custody of the militant young Negro. His attorney argued the arrest of Brown, 23, was a throwback to the fugitive slave laws and told reporters later he did not feel Brown would be given a fair trial in Maryland. Gov.
