bat the drop-out problem, the local youth council has joined forces with seven other councils in the state, Gary, Hammond, East Chicago, South Bend, Elkhart, Fort Wayne and Evansville who will likewise hold Back-to-School

Drives.

In Indianapolis alone vhis year there were 2887 drop-outs which is 58.6% of the students enrolled. This is more than the entire enrollment in some high schools. These voluntary drop-outs are a real loss to society because stu-

dents who have ability sometimes withdraw from school before graduating. Among reasons lor drop-outs are as follows: necessity to work, 316 students; did not like school, 235 students; inability to profit from high school, 225 students; expelled for discipline, 176 students; sent to a correcional institution, 127 students; reached 16, 160 students, and marriages, 107 students. The planned events for the drive include: a sticker campaign when 20,000 stickers will be distributed throughout the state, teen forums, dance and fashion show, mass rally and scholarship program. Joseph McNeil, a field director, will spend the entire month of August aiding the council in the drive.

•y PAT WILLIAMS Despite the Riverside Amusement Park management’s reported promise last May to the Mayor’s Human Rights Commission that signs “Patronage Whites Only Solicited" would be removed from the park, they are still showing. This came to light last week when members of the local NAACP’s Youth and College Council went to the park for recreational purposes. Tile youths reported the offensive signs throughout the • park en booths, windows, posts and many other noticeable spots. When the workers at Riverside noticed the iirter- ‘ racial group, a man began snatching down the earefully printed cardboard signs from all places possible and beckoned to co-workers to help him. Every five minutes a message came over a loud speaker saying, ‘This Is a privately owned park, in no way connected with the city or state.” AFTER WALKING AROUND cor half an hour, the young neople decided to see if the management really lived up to its discriminatory practices and proceeded to go on rides. There was no interference from Riverside personnel as they rode the “Roller coaster,” “Mad Mouse’’ and* "Turnpike.” Ignring snears and stares and finding the park non-discrimina-tory except for the “jimerow” signs, the 15-member group decided to go skating at the Riverside Skatarena, also located in vhe park. A white member of the group with a shating ticket in her hand approached the man in charge of tl»e rink for admission, and was asked if she had a membership card. She explained that she did not have one and asked if it was necessary. He said she should have one, whereupon she asked how much a membership would be and what the requirements were. He said the membership is $1.M per year and you have t to be nominated by another member to Join the club, but that he would let her in this time. Then a Negro in the group attempted to go skating, but was immediately asked if he was a member. He said no, he did not have

a card and asked hrw he could get one The spokesman said, “Go to the main office ” Along with three other youths he went to the office, applied for a membership and was told that membership was closed until September. Another member of the group asked if anyone could pay 50 cents and go skaitng since the drive was closed and was told, “No, only members are allowed.” CLIMAXING THE SOMEWHAT pleasant “veudng, the NAACP group left the park and went to diet’s Drive-In across the street for refreshments. They took seats, and ordered cokes. Their order was prepared, placed in a sack and put on the counter, although It was plain that they wanted to stay and enjoy the jukebox music rather than take a carry-out order. The young people removed the refreshments from the bag, placed them on the table, requested napkins and straws, and enjoyed their drinka. Walters at the drlve-in continually stared at the group. Just as a dime was put into the jukebox, polece (who had not been there in the beginning) were observed peering through the windows, as the manager talked to an officer in a ear parked outside. Another NAACP member joinea the group, whereupon the manager esme inside and locked the door. Whetv they were finished tlhe

manager unlocked the door to let them out, and one youth said:. “Oh, you locked us in.” The man replied, “And now I’m going to lock you opt!” INCLUDED IN THE group were Kathy Gesner, the Youth Council’s civil rights chairman; Pat Wll-liams-co-chairman; Levi Lewis, first vice-president; Elysse Hall, 'K-ond vice-president, and Charles Hale, treasurer. Others were Gillies Cremonesi, Ann Cureton, Bruce Collier, Bernice Poindexter, Eddie Hall, G oria Morgan, Joe Swansonson, Shirley Smith, David Winters amid JoAnn Cleveland. The group entered the park in numbers of four and were admitted for the minimum price of 25 cents. The Youth Council plans to talk to the management at both places axd investigate other concerns in the city that discriminate in violation of Indiana’s Public Accommodations Law.

of July, 1960. This reflects very well the fact that many of the youngsters enrolled in the day camp and summer program, having been exposed to the YMCA’s method of swimming instruction, took to the water like ducks. This high enrollment of youth shows the reawakening on the part of boys and girls of the necessity of being prepared in case of an emergency, floods and the like, the statement read. Adult members showed a general increase m some areas, and in other areas a decrease among male adults. The figures of men and women combined at the end of July, 1959, showed 1,423 enrolled, and 1,261 at the end of July, 1960. A decrease or loss of 159 adult members. This differential has crease in members apply ing and been absorbed by the general inreceiving higher types of memberships. Rates for the summer and special type rates are still the very popular forms of memberships that are being renewed regularly. Some 130 women and men are to receive the coveted Emblem Club award at the Fall recognition program in September, according to Smith H. Cheatham, general chairman of the 1960 membership campaign.
