Tex.-flJPD-AboUt 390 high school students who gathered at a downtown inter section when their football rallies were cancelled smashed windows and banged up the cars of Negrftes Thurs day night. The teen-agers broke tail lights, ripped off radid anten nas and mirrors of seven cars before police broke up the crowd in the brief incident. Two 16-year-old boys were arrested for damaging the automobile of a Negro minis ter. Police chased the youth on foot. The minister wal unhurt, although some of the other Negroes received minor cuts from flying glass and one white boy who pushed his fist through a windshield received a long gash on his wrist. The trouble started over two football rallies that wefe cancelled earlier in the week to prevent just the kind of mischief that took plate Thursday night.
