IA NEGROES PLAN
SCHOOL TRANSFER

ROANOKE, Va, May IL
(AP).-- The first move toward
integration of Southwest Vir-
ginia schools has been made
with the announcement that
IA Negroes will seek admission
this fall to two white schools
in Floyd County.
Word of the pending transfer
requests came from q Roanoke
attorney, Reuben Lawson, and
apparently caught Floyd
County school ofiicials by sur
prise.
The transfer petition from IL
Negro families presumably will
come before the school board
at its next scheduled meeting
June 9.
Floyd County has no high
school for Negroes. 1t has two
white high schools. Negro pu-
pills of high school age are sent
to Christiar1sburg Institute in
Montgomery County, which is
operated jointly by Montgom-
cry, Floyd and two other To-
calities which have no Negro
high schools-Pulaski County
and the city of Radford.

Planners Ask
School L-und
Sales Control.

The Fairfax County Plan
ming Commission last night de-
cided to ask the school board
to make all land sale contracts
subject to planning commits
sion approval.
The major concern is inter-
mediate school sites. Only one
intermediate school site has
been approved. There are at
least five others awaiting COM
mission approval.
The school site problem came
into the open last month when
the planning commission de-
eided to take advantage OF q
new State law which gives the
commission control over Local
ton of public facilities once a
master plan or part of a master
plan is adopted by the county.
Fairfax has adopted parts Of
a master plan.
The planning commission
suggested last night that APP
proval on more school sites be
held up until the school archi-
tect produces plans showing
exactly where the building and
roads will be located.
In other action the planning
commission approved a recon-
ing application for building OF
an apartment house on the
north side Of Route 7 about 400
feet from Forest drive in the
Baileys Crossroads area.
The application, made by
Beverly Jean Howe, calls for a
three-story building containing
1874 apartments. Magazine Bros.
