First Negroes
Play on Atlanta
Golf Course
Atlanta, Ga. (U.R) Ten Neg
roes played golf Saturday on an
Atlanta public course previously
reserved for whites. They were
the first Negroes to tee off since
the U.S. Supreme Court ordered
the Atlanta courses open to all
citizens, regardless of color.
The first Negroes showed up
about 9:30 a.m. EST, said pro
Bill Hall at the North Fulton
Course. They "got in line like
everybody else" and teed off
when their turn came, Hall said.
Six Negroes comprised the
first group. Four others showed
up later, and took to the course.
There were no incidents as the
play progressed. About 150
white golfers also were playing
the flat North Fulton Course
laid out northwest of the ex
clusive Buckhead residential
area.

after watching Holleder work
