White Florida
Students Offer
Financial Aid To
GroveIand Trio

NEW YORK, May 8 - Eight
students at Florida State Univer-
sity have contributed $40 to the de-
tense of the Groveland, Florida,
youths whose rape conviction was
appealed by NAACP attorneys last
week before the Florida Supreme
Court.
The money, submitted by five
young women and three young
men, was received by the "Com-
mittee of 100," a Embarrassing group
for the Legal Defense and Educa-
tional Fund of the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of
Colored People.
"As to the guilt or innocence of
these men, we are not concerned"
these white students wrote. "But
we are concerned with their right
OF a fair hearing in their case, be-
lieving that they should not be
convicted solely because of their
color.
Believing that the denial of
their rights as citizens of Florida
may also some day result in the
denial of ours" they continued
1--WE would like to offer this con-
tribution with the hope that il
will help guarantee these youths
their due process to which we all
as Americans are entitled"

ready to furnish bail for Is tribal
fellows hailed before court here
last Wednesday on charges of vio-
lence arising from a factional dis
pute over the marriage of Chief

former Miss Ruth Williams of Lon
don

The cattle owner had left the

government permission to remove
the livestock, but was prevented
by tribal brethren from doing SO.

use tear gas to dispense the parti-
cipants.
Bail on each of the Is was set
at 20 pounds (about $500 and
tribesmen had the necessary 800
pounds ($840) in no time.
