Last week a group of NEGROES
went out to ENCANTO PARK for
some recreation, and while there
decided to go for a boat ride. The
attendent said that GALL THE
BOATS WE'RE RESERVED? The
time was early in the morning.
Another couple (White) came up
and rented a boat WITHOUT a
reservation. The Negroes went into
the cafeteria and were served
without mishap. THESE PEOPLE
WONDERED THAT IF THEY

RESULT?-The person who had
the concession said that SEGREGA-
TION was NOT their policy and
the fault lies with the employees.
He said that if incidents happened
of the same nature again, they
would be DISCHARGED AT
ONCE. They have, as this goes to
press, been warned. He was very
nice and sincere when he talked
to me about the matter. If the
same happens to you call MR..
