said a cl)i£k in the Little Rock area revealed “the sale of an uncsuklly large number of weap- j ons," on the eve of the partial ! integration move. The day marked the opening of | hundreds of schools in the South. In some, racial integration of i classes was being tried for the i f.rst time. Throe cities in North Carolina: | Charlotte. Greensboro, and Win-'ton-Salem. were putting an integration plan into effect for the i first time. In Nashville, Tenn., ; integrated first grades are scheduled to begin Sept. 9. The tense Little Rock situation | rnay lead to similar eruptions in j K t tacky, where more trouble ! sc med l.kely to occur. In Maryland, Missouri and Ok- i lahomawhich have attempted some integration before—more integrated classes were schedul- j ed to get underway. Should trouble spring up in Little Rock, perpetrators would face court action similar to that meted out to John Kasper and his help-mates at Clinton, Tenn., last fall. Both areas were put j under similar court orders—an 1 njunction preventing interfer- | ence with integration. Trouble, should it come, seemed most likely to occur in Kentucky. There also w r as a chance of disorder in the Nashville situation and in Arkansas, where schools of Little Rock and four other cities were being mixed for the first time. W.

Survivors of the wreck said the train, which had been towed uphill from Montego Bay by two diesel engines, headed into the Scurve at high speed. A coupling parted with a thunderous crack. The engines plunged ahead while the cars careened back down the hill. One car, its sides torn off, ran a quarter of a mile before it jumped the
track.
The rending crashes of the derailed coaches transformed the night into a scene of horror, punctuated by the groans of the injured and the screams of the bereaved. Some of the less seriously hurt sang hymns in an effort to keep up the spirits of their bleeding fellows in misfortune. Joseph Mitchell, a linotype

It was blamed on lightning. Many of the 150 firemen who answered the 3-alarm call were still on the job early today.
