LYNCHBURG, Va, July S
(AP.-An effort by Negroes to
swim in a public pool reserved
for whites has resulted in the
indefinite closure Of Lynch
burg's three city-operated
swimming pools.
City officials, given advance
notice there might be an inte-
grafton attempt, were present
when a Negro man and six
children tried yesterday to gain
admittance to the Miller Park
pool.
That and the white River
side and Negro Jefferson pools
were closed Immediately, City
Manager Robert Morrison said,
because "as we saw it, there
was a matter Of public safety
involved"
Mr.. Morrison said he had
been informed by the city at
torney that the city did not
have the right to bar any citi-
zen from a city-operated pool.
Floyd McKenna, city recrea-
ton supervisor, said he received
a telephone call Monday from
the Rev. Virgil Wood, president

SEND A KID TO CAMP
Girl, II, Has to Face
Problems of Adults

Sandra's home has an odd
feeling, although the Oldest per-
son in it is still in her teens.
Sandra is IL. When she and
her eight brothers and sisters
were orphaned by the death of
their parents, her older sister
took over.
Responsibility for a houseful
Of children is hard thing for
a teen-age girl alone. Yet San
dra'S sister, who is determined
that the family will not be bro
ken up, grirnly holds her
brothers and sisters together
under one roof.
At one point, crumbling un-
der her burden, she tried to
kill herself.
But after a short stay in a
hospital, she went back home
again, as determined as ever
that the family would not be
broken up.
AS the second Oldest girl,
Sandra shares much Of the re-
SponSibility for the younger
children.
With no real adult in the
home, Sandra has had to act
like an adult long before her
time.
A vacation at camp would
take her away, at least for a
little while, from a grim grown
up world, into a world where u
carefree good time is the order
of the day.

is allowed to walk about his room.
If his heart handles this work
easily he is then ready to try more
strenuous efforts living at home,
climbing stairs, finally returning
to his normal work, family life
and recreation.
The oVeF9axed heart
If at any stage of increasing
activity there is evidence from the
doctors examination that the heart
is being Overtaxed, the rate of
increase in activity is decreased
for a while and, in some cases,
indications are prescribed.
Sometimes, of course, the heart
muscle has been damaged so much
that the patient cannot return to a
job as strenuous, say, as that of a
telephone lineman. The solution
then is for him and his doctor to
work together to determine how
much exertiOn he can handle and
find a job which fits his strength.
We know that there is a safe
level of activity for every heart
patient, and we have learned that
slight overtaxing does not damage
the healed heart. The worst mis-
take We could make, as doctor or
patient, is to let fear dictate more
restricted life than necessary.
Doctors usually do try to re-
strict one thing: overeating. Fat

patients who are afraid to carry a
25-pound suitcase across the street
but who are carrying so pounds of
extra weight around all day long.
Perhaps the best example for
apprehensive heart patients was
set by President Eisenhower. Here
is a man who, on the advice of
some of the greatest heart special
lists in the world, returned to his
full activities. He continued the
grueling pace of the Presidency,
flew all over the world, played golf,
hunted and today enjoys busy
retirement. Lyndon Johnson, our
