Little Rook School Opening Planned
LEXINGTON, Ky —Gov Orval E Eaubus said Mon
day he expects to reopen high schools in Little Rock next
Monday, or possibly later in the week, after a vote on the
question of admitting Negroes.
The Arkansas governor made the statement at the
Southern Governors Conference.
He has proposed a plan for operating the schools as pri
vate institutions.
In Little Rock, an estimated 200 shouting students dem
onstrated on the governor's mansion lawn Monday against
any integration of racially-torn Central High School.
“Two, four, six, eight. We don't want to integrate,” the
students chanted in pep rally style.
Fred Jolly, 17, Central High senior and spokesman for
the group, 94ud “We just wanted Got Faubus to know that
even if some students are opposed to him, we feel that the
majority of both Hall and Sentral students are hacking him
100 per cent.”
