Smaller meetings with indi-
vidual segments of the film in
dustry are now being sched-
uled.
NAACP demands fall into
two categories - an end to al
legged discrimination against
Negroes in employment and a
more favorable portrayal of the
Negro on the screen.
In employment. the NAACP
negotiators ask that all guilds
and unions be integrated inn
mediately.
Herbert Hill, NAACP ma
tional labor secretary and a
Caucasian, said that the
NAACP wants Hollywood to
engage in extra special eff
forts" to "break traditional pat
terms once and for all to COM
pensate Negroes for past dis
elimination"
Thomas G.. Neusom, Los
Angeles Negro attorney and
NAACP representative, singled
out one TV comedy series,
Hazel" starring Shirley
Booth, as the benchmark for
all future Indignation in en-
ployment.
"Hazel" will commence
shooting later this summer for
the coming season. It's technical
crew has not yet been selected.
The NAACP demands when
shooting does begin that its
production crew be migrated.
After that every crew of every
TV series and of every feature
film must include Negroes.
Messrs. Neusom and Hill said
that if Hazel does not meet
these demands the NAACP will
hold the shows sponsor. the
Ford Motor Company, directly
responsible and will launch a
Negro boycott againsts its
products.
If makers Of feature films
fail to comply after the Hazel"
show begins shooting. Negro
leaders promised that picketing
and boycotting would begin at
studios and theaters.
Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Neusom In
sist that enough talent exists in
Hollywood so that at least one
Negro can join every crew.
Mr.. Neusom indicated that
placing an aspiring Negro in an
apprenticeship capacity mi
TALLY would satisfy NAACP
demands in some cases.
AS to portrayal of the Negro
on TV and film screens,
NAACP spokesman demand
that Hollywood recognize the
simple truth that one of nine
Americans are Negroes"
The NAACP spokesman have
also demanded that pilot TV
shows for the 1964-65 season
and thereafter be broadened to
include Negroes in permanent
md continuing roles.

MIDDLEBURG, Va.-There
was no big communal party
to usher in the New Year on
Monday night but since the
New Year itself slid in on a
sheet Of ice, wrapped in a
mantel Of old snow, 1t was
not missed.
The countryside slithered
to individual parties in the
Middleburg area, intent on
being merry even though seq
ments landed in snowbanks
off the unsanded side roads.
