that thinking Negores who + g
concerned about the progress of the
race rather than the progress Of
individuals should ask the NAACP
to stick to the phase Of race plead

and cease muddying the water by
attempting to direct the overall
strategy tor the Negro group. He
said NAACP policy tends to be "a

nothing for the Negro and leaves

boards adjourned meeting June 10.
Heights Delegation
A patron delegation from Darling
ton Heights community appeared
before the board to request the
continued operation OF three
teacher elementary school in that
community where there are ap-
proximately so pupils.
The delegation spokesman said
the group was fully aware of the
school closing action Of supervisors
but wished merely to get its re-
quest on which patrons have
been working for more than a year
in the records OF the school
board.
Neither the school board nor its
attorneys have been appraised OF
any action on the board motion
to recall the mandate for integra-
ton here next September issued by
the U. s. Court of Appeals for
the Fourth Circuit.
The board petitioned the appeals
court for a rehearing, and if that
is denied, for stay of the de-
segregation mandate pending an
appeal to the U. S. Supreme Court
The motion to recall the mandate
was placed before the Appeals
Court May %.
