Negroes Gain Use Of
Miami Golf Course

MIAMI, April 3~0.-(ANP)-Ne
groes may now use the city-owned
Miami Springs golf course, it
was decided here last week by
City Manager o. P. Hart. Since
his ruling several Negroes have
used the course.
The city manager STAYED off
a planned action by colored golfer
to gain use of the court. 1t eli
NAKED a drive begun last Septem-
Der. At that time Negroes were
told they would be allowed use
of a new course to be built, three
day a week. However, this pro-
ject has never been completed.
1t is believd that the city may
now build a course for the exclu-
sive use of Negroes.
On this topic, Harley D. Lasse-
ter, white member of the Miami
golf course advisory committee
said:
81 haven't any doubt that if
enough pressure were brought to
bear, the county would go to work
on this problem and provide a
course exclusively for the Negroes
1t should be operated by Negroes
and it's future should be left up
to them by the manner in which
they support it,"
