Maddox said for them to stay out. Cm May 23, the five youth made an appeal to citizens of Greenville, by w.earing signs saying, ‘Why can’t we go back to school?” “Why must we be deprived of an educaicti?” ‘‘We honor the law of the land aLid g*et kicked out of school.

EASTS!DERS STRIKE OIL: Oil was discovered under the ground in an Eastside neighborhood last week but ironically enough no one was happy over it. The reason being the oil came from underground pipes disconnected from oil tanks on a rented lot of the Asphalt & Material Company, located at 960 E 22nd. "The company pulled up stakes two months ago, moving to W. 86th Street. Enraged neighbors shouted loud protests because the "gocey stuff" spread all over their yard's, sidewalk and street. The oil reportedly started flowing Aug. 12 and neighbors immediately called police who in turn notified the City Street Department. Tons of sand covered the ground but the oil continued to flow. The Fire Department came to the rescue and at last report everything seemed to be under control. Everything, that is, except the neighbors' tempers. The company manager, R. K. Stevenson, said that children must have opened the valves. Neighbors denied the charge, inisting company workers overturned a large tank. (Recorder photo by Houston Djckie)

If the cut is not restored, the total appropriation of the city for human relations work next year will be a mere $3,875 — hard y enough to buy stationery and hire a typist. Although the petition does not so state, informed observers believe the “economy” gimmick is a mere screen behind which reactionaries seek to destroy or render powerless the Human Relations Commission.

When asked about his reported coming marriage to Mrs. Barnett, Lyles replied: “We went out on occasions but there was never any word spoken of marriage.” As to the “pre-wedding party” Mrs. Barnett attended on the night of her death, Lyles said that he only knew there was a “gig” in Lockefield “and Evelyn and I were

signal.
At this point, Mrs. Sproules continued, “A large crowd gathered around the patrol waj?on. I got out of the car and went over to the wagon to see if my husband wanted me to call anyone or get anything for him.” Then, she went on, Offcer Raisor, who said he had told everyone to get away from the wagon, became very
hostile.
“Without provocation, he grabbed me, twisted my arm and shoved me into the wagon.” (Mrs. Sproules was arrested, police said, when she refused to leave the patron wagon until they hauled her out.) “I was emotionally upset and hurt. Nothing like this has ever happened to me before,” she said as she showed reporters the bruises on her arms and complained of pains in her back. “When this other man (Gene Holt, white, 451 N. Gray, one of the two arrested for fighting) was put in the wagon he told us that Officer Raisor had called him over to the side and told him to testify that my husband’s car was going 45 miles an hour. “Holt, she said, “told Raisor that he wasn’t saying anything.

He said that he would tell his story to the judge if he should be called upon. He was, and told the judge that my husband wasn’t going over 30 miles an hour,” Mrs. Sproules said. According to Mrs. Sproules another witness. Bob Pinkard, 1604 W. 64th, who was said to have been driving alongside of Sproules when the incident occurred, will testify in their behalf as to the rate of speed the Sproules car was traveling. Mrs. Sproules also said that her husband submitted to a drunkometer test which proved negative. Rev. Williams, pastor of Eastside Baptist Church, said he visited the injured man in the hospital and asked him if he had been ptished in front of his son-in-law’s chr. “I was drunk and I could have been pushed,” the man was reported as saying. Mrs. Williams described her daughter as “a girl that has led a good Christian life” and said it is a pity that she must be subjected to this type of punishment. The alleged attack against Mrs. Sproules by Raisor has launched general debate on the “hot” police brutality issue and threats of a protest march on City Hall and a petition demanding the discharge of Raisor from th« force is imminent. — REGISTER TO VOTE —
