AS the ant1-Segregauon ug
onstrators came up with new Ia
they resorted to 'squat-ins'--a
OnstratOrs in Oklahoma City.
Teen-agers and a few adul
walk in front OF the Blue Boar
cafeteria and the White Swan res
taurant.
The "squatting" technique
brought the arrest Of 12s demon
strators by city police-118 juven-
lies and IA adults, all in the after
noon Blue Boar demonstration.
Twenty-cight Juveniles and live
adults were arrested inside the
Kupie Double Burger.
All those arrested by city police
were charged with breach Of peace.
Those at the Kupie were arrested
on warrants, also charging breach
Of peace.
Earlier last week four light
skinned Negro women were served
In the Blue Boar while 10 men
and women who were refused ad-
mission walked in picket circles
outside. Cafeteria officials appar-
emily did not notice that the four
were Negroes until they were
served.
The demonstrators, led by Frank
L. Stanley, Jr., co-chairman Of the
steering committee, marched from
their rally point at Qulnn Chapel
to the sidewalk in front Of the
Kentucky Hotel
The students sat and sang their
familiar Freedom" and I'VE shall
Overcome" chorusea and added
some tunes Of rock-'n'-roll beat
I'VE love Indignation like a hOun'
dog loves his bone" and He got
the Blue Boar in His Hand"
A crowd estimated at almost
1000 gathered on both sides Of
the street az the demonstrations
progressed.
Police stood by, watching, and
after about 80 minutes moved n
to ask the demonstrators to move.
When they refused. arrests were
made. Az patrol wagons carried
away arrested demonstrators, 9TH
ers replaced them.
Some Of the younger demonstra-
tors rushed to get into the police
wagons as they pulled up to the
curb. And some looked glIm when
turned back as the wagons filled.
They sang and clapped and stamp
ed on the floor Of the wagons as
they were driven Off.
A brief scuffle broke out as the
last wagonload Of demonstrators
was being arrested, and Negro
leaders said a youth was kicked
repeatedly by a Blue Boar mar
chant policeman. onloOlrers started
to move In on the trouble spot but
were stopped by police.
The four women unwittingly
served at the Blue Boar were Mrs.
Charles Steele, wife Of the execu-
tive director Of the Louisville Ur-
ban League; Mrs. Marjorie Miles,
whose husband operates a drug
store here; Mrs. ]. e. Hanlxins,
wife Of the president Of Mammoth
Life Insurance Company, and Miss
Dorothy Rhodes,
Stanley issued statement say
ing: How inconsistent can the
policy Of segregation be? Negroes
are Negroes and only by the DIFF
ference Of color, some were served,
and others refused"
Meanwhile, Louisville leaders
met in st. Louis with officials
there to discuss procedures used
to end segregation in St Louis
eating places.
The new approach discussed
would call for ending mass demon
STATIONS against segregated estab-
lishments and substituting instead
an orderly testing program con-
Quoted by small groups Of Negroes
In cooperation with the Louisville
Restaurant Owners association and
backed up by negotiation, where
necessary.
In other developments, DR.. Mar

world today does not allow the lux
