Property Owners Suit
The suit was filed by about
80 property owners in the re-
stricted area. Among them was
G. Wallace Carper, former
chairman Of the Board of
County Supervisors.
The 2-acre restriction was
adopted over the protests of
the planning commission which
had recommended that the
maximum restriction be ]

entrance as 100 or more white
students stood and watched
them.
Few Catealls
They were escorted to the
school door by only five para
troopers. Yesterday, 81 soldiers
in a double line marched them
to the door.
There were one or two cat.
calls from the white students
as the Negro pupils marched
to the entrance. One member
of the school band rolled ont
a few rufIles on a drum he was
carrying.
The, Negro students assem-

Sept. rs (P.rNationalist China
told the United Nations today
the Red mainland is gripped by
unrest that may flare into a
revolt like the Hungarian up
rising. The Communist regime
was described as shaky.
In a speech before the 81
national General Assembly,
China's HUI Shin declared
events in Hungary touched of
two major anti Communist
movements on the mainland
in the past few months.
DR.. HUI is an educator. philos-

said. but Red authorities were

What happened in Hungary
last October has proven be-
yond doubt that the young stu

have not been captivated by
fully 10 years Of Communist
rule and indoctrination.n
Recent events, he added,
prove that after eight years
of absolute rule and theological
molding. the students in China
are almost unanimously in op-
position to the Communist
Party and government"
DR.. HUI said the Hungarian
uprising has had a profound
effect on the Chinese people as
q whole.

clear and indelible impression
that, the powerful and ruthless

Peiping authorities kept news
of the Yanyang riots secret for
nearly two months. when news
finally leaked out.
The other major movement
