White Coeds
Protest
Race Hatred
GRKKNSBORO, N.C. AP)
Three white cords joined a Negro
demonstration at a dime store
lunch counter here Thursday pro
testing a practice of not serving
Negroes while seated.
The demonstration, which the
Negroes promised would enter its
fifth day today, spread to a sec
ond dime store Thursday. The
closest thing to an incident de
veloped in what had been an or
derly demonstration.
The Negroes, most of them stu
dents at Greensboro A & T College,
started their demonstration Mon
d3 Each day they take seats at
the lunch counter of the F. W
Woolworth Co. store. They are ig
nored by the waitresses who do
not wait on them.
Several white teenagers and
young men in an effort to thwart
the Negroes arrived early Thurs
day, blocking aisles and taking
several of the counter seats. The
demonstrators, joined by students
from a Negro high school and the
three white coeds from Greens
boro's Woman's College, moved
to the lunch counter of the S. H
Kress & Co. down the street.
White youths shouted catcalls
and abusive language at the Ne
groes in both stores but there was
no violence. 1
iwo ot tne white youths were
escorted from the Woolworth store
by plainclothesmen for yelling and
swearing.
The Negroes are disgruntled be
cause they are served standing
but are not waited on while scat
cd. The practice is custom and
not based on law.
The three while students from
the women's college identified
themselves as Genie Seaman of
Orlando, Fla., Marilyn Lott of
Washington, D.C., and Ann Dears
ley of London, England.
Officials of both stores would not
comment.
U.S. Loses $12 Billion Because Of '59 Mishaps
CHICAGO (AP) - Accidents
killed 91,500 Americans last year.
They injured 9,300,000 men, wo
men and children.
They cost $12,600,000,000.
The National Safety Council, in
so reporting today, said the 195!)
death toll was just 1,000 higher
than in 1958, an increase of one
per cent.
Traffic accidents lopped the list
with 37.800 deaths, followed by
home accidents with 26.500, acci
dents at work with 13,800 and ac
cidents in public excluding traffic
fatalities with 16,500.
Fatalities rose in all those class-
cs except in the home, where there
was no change in comparison with
the previous year.

Gas Truck Tips;
But No Damage
PORTLAND (AP) - A huge
gasoline truck-trailer rig skidded
and overturned onto the lawns of
two homes in Portland's exclusive
Alameda district here Monday.
Some 500 gallons of gasoline
spilled out, but firemen arrived
quickly and washed it away. There
was no fire.
The driver, George Rowe of
Portland, escaped unhurt although
his clothes were drenched with
gasoline.
CLAIM TESTS SUCCESSFUL
MOSCOW tUPl) Tass, the
official Soviet news agency, said
today the success of the Russian
rocket tests in the Pacific was
proved by the fact that they
ended ahead of schedule.
Commentator Igor Orlov refuted
"Pentagon expressions" that the
Russians quit their testing two
weeks early because of techni
cal failure. He said such Ameri
can speculation was designed to
"explain the lagging United States
rocket program."
dental deaths per 100.000 popula
tiondeclined to a record low of
51.9.
The economic loss was calculat
ed for both fatal and non-fatal
accidents and it included wage
losses, medical expense, produc
tion delays and equipment and
property damage.
Falls, always a major killer in
accidents, resulted in the death
of 18,300 persons last year, about
the same as in 1958. Deaths from
burns totaled 7.400. an increase of
1 per cent from last year, while
6.500 persons drowned, a decrease
of 1 per cent. Firearms deaths of
;,200 were 1 per cent more than
in 19.58.
The council said only one catas
trophc last year caused more than
50 deaths. Sixty-five persons were
killed when an airplane plunged
into the East River in New York
City. However, there were four
other accidents in which 25 or
more persons died.
The council said the bulk of the
accident total, as in past years
was made up of one or two-death
mishaps.
The traffic death toll was 900
less than in 1957 and nearly 2.000
under the 1956 toll. The increase
in deaths last year was less than
half of the 5 per cent increase
which occurred in motor vehicle
travel, the council said.
The council said that 198 passen
gers and 28 crew members were
killed in 1959 in 8 accidents which
occurred in the domestic passen
gcr-carrying operations ot sched
uled air carriers.
In the first eight months of 1959
the latest information available
1,346 persons were killed in all
categories of railroad accidents
compared with 1,437 in 1958.
The preliminary estimate of firei$l,047,O0O,00O. 1 per cent lower
losses, made by the National than the comparable preliminary
Board of Fire Underwriters, was estimate for 1958.
