Courthouse Meeting
Marks Anniversary

FARMVILLE, Va, = Prince
Edward County, whose Negro
parents, along with those OF D
other localities, won the fam
Gus Supreme Court school de-
segregation case on May II,
1854, marked the seventh an
niversary here May 20, al
though today there are no pub
lie schools in the county.
Faced with an order from a
Federal Court to desegregate
it's public schools, Prince Ed
ward County officials closed
down all public schools two
years ago.
The white children have
been going to makeshift schools
assisted by state tuition grants,
but the 1850 Negro children
have refused to accept aid to
set up a Jim Crow school.
NAACP executive secretary
Roy Wilkins and Oliver W..
Hill, chairman of the NAACP
state legal redress committee,
will speak at the outdoor meet
ing here Saturday afternoon,
May 20. Permission to use the
courthouse steps for the rally
has been granted by Farmville
officials.
Recently the U. S. Depart
ment of Justice announced that
it has requested permission of
the Federal Court to become a
co-plaintiff in the original
suit.
This action means that the
u. S. governments position is
that Prince Edward County
has acted not only against the
Negro parents and children in
closing the schools, but has ac-
ted in defiance of a U. S. court
order.

And then the crowd spotted
Caroline Kennedy on the

Miss Maud Shaw.
Hi Daddy" she was heard
to say as she blew a big kiss
and began waving to the
crowd. The students waved
back, and the President and
his wife laughed.
President Kennedy was
wearing a striped blue suit
and light, purple tie with
small, red flowers in its de-
sign.
Mrs. Kennedy wore a
sleeveless, navy-blue silk
dress and a cardigan jacket,
with a little bit Of sequin
around the neck, and navy

BY MOHAMMED A. RAUF, JR.
Star Staff Writer


To more than 800 foreign
students invited by Presi-
dent and Mrs. Kennedy to
a White House reception yes
terday, the occasion was one
of unalloyed enchantment.
There was the thrill Of
being in the White House, not
as tourists but as guests, with
an embossed invitation for
a permanent keepsake. Added
to it was the pleasant sem
sation of being received by
the President and the First
Lady in person and an oppor-
tunity to say hello to them,
talk with them and get their
autographs.
The applause was great
when the two walked out
upon the South Lawn of the
Executive Mansion at 4:36
pm. The 75-member Air
Force band struck up "Ruf-
files and FlourisheS." There
was a rush to get close to the
First Couple. The Secret Ser
vice men just could not keep
the crowd back.
AS the President and his
wife walked toward the band
stand, the eager and the very
eager were rewarded by hand
shakes, by mods, by helloS,
by a polite word here, an en-
couraging sentence there.
The First Lady, too, was
doing her share Of hand
shaking. The crowd saw her
smile at close range. 1t smiled.
back at her.
Guests Lose Shyness
Students who were shy at
first, lost their nervousness.
The warmth of the Kennedy
greeting did not take long
to spread.
Halfway to the bandstand.
the question was flung at
the Chief Executive:
Are you going to let the
CommieS get Laos?"
Surprised, Mr.. Kennedy
became a bit grave. He an
swered: I'VE are doing our
best :" There was no time
to say more. The milling
crowd had other questions
for him.
But it hushed when he
mounted the bandstand and
began to speak.
And he drew tremendous
applause when he expressed
his confidence that the stu
dents gathered there would
one day become leaders of
their countries, and be well
coined by future Presidents
of the United States, Just as
he recently had welcomed
President Nkrumah and DR..
H. Banda, African leaders,
who were once students in
this country.
Stresses Free Society
There was additional ap-
plause when he declared:
I'VE are an open and free
society. All Of our strengths
and all Of our weaknesses
are on display. They are a
matter Of discussion. Those
Of us who hold high office
and high responsibilities are
subject to all of the scrutiny
- the careful scrutiny -
which comes from a free
press and a free people,
operating within an open So
ciety."
He called this diversity "a
source of strength land one)
upon which rests the security
Of each individual in this
country"
Quoting a Chinese proverb
that to begin a voyage of a
thousand miles requires the
first STEP" he continued:
