Big Virginia
Stores Integrate
Lunch Counters
Br United Press International
Three big stores in north
ern Virginia integrated their
lunch counters Wednesday,
and new demonstrations by
Negroes against segregation
'at the lunch counter broke
out in North Carolina.
The lunch counter demon
strations, which began last
February, have virtually
ceased in the South since be
ginning of the summer vaca
tion at schools and colleges.
But summer school students
: at a Negro university in Char
lotte, N. C, staged sitdown
.demonstrations in at least six
stores Wednesday.
.Others Segregated
The F. W. Woolworth com
pany and two department
stores in Arlington, Va., just
across the Potomac river from
; Washington, integrated their
.lunch counters after two
.weeks of such demonstrations.
Woolworth's said the Arling
ton store would be the only
one in Virginia to do so.
At Nashville, T e n n., a
"speaker at Fisk university's
annual race relations institute
called the sitdown demonstra
tions "one of the most mas
' ive social movements this
continent has ever known."
Committee Refused
; Dr. Robert jonnson, con
sultant to the Field Founda
tion of New York, told the
Fisk audience that during the
Ipast decade there has been a
; "sharp increase in the ten
dency of American Negroes
to become orderly and effec
tive aggressors rather than
avoiders or accepters." He as
cribed this to desegregation
. of the armed forces and major
league baseball teams.
In Alabama, Gov. John Pat
terson refused requests of sev
eral Negro organizations to
create a bi-racial committee
to study the race question In
the state. Patterson said the
requests came from "Negro
racial agitators" with whom
he would nyt deal.
Light Industry
Declared Great
User of Energy
Glasgow, Scotland-(Scienee
Service)- Men who work In
light industries, such as a
sewing machine plant, may
expend as much energy as
men working in heavy indus
tries like steel, a study of
elderly working men shows.
Dr. J. V. G. A. Durnin of
the department of psysiology
at Glasgow University studied
the energy output of men be
tween 60 and 65. He found:
In the steel industry, where
men do strenuous work but
do it infrequently, the aver-
' age elderly worker expends
3,300 calories a day.
In a truck assembly plant,
;.the daily average was 2,700
calories.
. In the sewing machine
; plant, where many of the men
sat all day at an assembly
'line, the average was 3,300
: calories a day. These figures
took into account the rest of
.the day, but most of the men
jwere extremely idle in the
.evenings.
i More Food Required
I "We may have been very
"wrong in what we think eld
rly people can do in indus
' try," Dr. Durnin said.
"Elderly people may re
quire to take in more energy
in the form of food than
ryoung people," he said, "even
when both may be doing pre
cisely the same job, as well
. as taking the same amount of
.exercise. Elderly people are,
on the whole bulkier and
therefore use up more energy
In doing the same work."
A factor that caused heavi
er demands to be made by so
called "light" jobs was that
a light task was more likely
to be a continuous one all day
long except for meal breaks,
whereas the man with a
strenuous task to do relaxed
in between the demands of
the job.

the green slime on complaints
to the health department

harmful to human beings or
