LIVINGSTON COLLEGE
STUDENTS IN STRIKE
WIN COURT ORDER

SALISBURY, N. c., Feb. 4
(ANP)-A student strike is in eff
feet at Livingston college, the AME
Zion school here. Glasses have been
disrupted for the past week, ne
gotiations between the striking
students and the administration
having failed to produce an agree
ment or a resumption of the normal
life of the institution.
A judge in the local court signed
an order which presumably halted
the dismissal of seven students
charged with fomenting the strike.
The order required Pres. w. j.
Trent to show cause why the stu
dents were being dismissed. The
date of hearing was set as of Feb.
IA.
The strike began after the 240
students acting in unison had de-
manded better food, more heat in
the dormitories and correction of
certain other conditions which, ac-
cording to the students bill of
grievance, consisted of reaches,
vermin waste in food and other
complaints. The students have re-
fused to attend classes or examin-
ations which were in progress at
the time until the conditions which
they specify have ben remedied.
Seven girls were dismissed, be-
ing accused of sponsoring the walk
out. Those identified include Ger
aldine Gordon, daughter of Bishop
Buford F. Gordon of Charlotte,
prelate of the AME Zion church;
Gwendolyn Shelton of Chicago,
Anna B. L. Dantzler, New York,
Goldie Mae Ziegler, Detroit and
Jerusha Tillman, Asheville, N. C.
Other students claims that these
girls did not foment the strike but
were elected as committee after
President Trent had invited the
group to send representatives to a
When President Trent and the
faculty discipline committee sought
to interview the girls, they refused
unless a grievance committee
among the male students was also
heard. The abandonment of classes
by the entire student body followed.
President Trent explained the

NEW YORK, Feb. 6 (ANP)-
The Ku Klux Klan will have "a big

stand of the administration. He
said that the administration would
refuse to reinstate the strikers
and that all strikers would be
dismissed. But all of the strikers,
he said, had refused to leave the
campus. A number of parents and
officials including Bishop w. J.
Walls of Chicago, chairman of the
board of trustees; Bishop and Mrs.
Gordon, Mrs. James w. Eichel-
berger, wife of the secretary of
the board of education of the
church; the Rev. J. D. Cauthen,
pastor of Varrick M mort a
church, Philadelphia; the Rev. w.
A. Blackwell, Braddock, Pa, have
arrived in Salisbury in an attempt
at helping to settle the issues in
volved.
The students claim that their
grievances are of long standing.
Some of these matters were
brought before the board of trust
ees last year and it is reported that
orders to correct the conditions
complained of were issued. The
students claim this has not been
done.
Airmail special delivery letters
are said to have been sent to all
parents Thursday, asking the par
ents to come or send for their chill
dren and notifying them that a new
for reentry would be re-
quired for registration in the SEM
ester about to begin. Puzzled par
ents had already received letters
notifying them that their children
were registered for the new semes-
ter and advising them amount of
money due to cover expense of the
period.
Students wired each trustee of
the institution asking their inter-
vention to persuade the administra-
ton to postpone dismissal of the
students until Feb. 2, Founders
day at which time the trustees hold
their semi-annual meeting. The
kilograms wre signed "arbitration
board" and gave a return post-of-
flee box number. Owership of the
oox was traced. 1t was said to be
that of the Rev. H. l.. Clement, a
graduate of the school who recently
received an advanced degree from
Boston university. He and Prof.
Benjamin, one of the professors of
foreign languages have both been
ased for their designations.
