The course will be taught by Allen Schrader, instructor in the Department of English at 11 a.m. each Friday in Room 101. Schra der has planned to discuss only those selections usually read in English 203. He added that the selections would come from 20th century writers and he intends to include musical compositions, either jazz or classical, which best illuminate the writing. Schrader said there would be no examinations and no grade given, but the participants must be ready to attend class regularly. He said this would give him the chance to develop not only a con tinuity for the class, activities, but to individualize his treatment of literature and music for the tastes and perceptivity of the class.

The pickets, four at a time, marched for three hours in front of the H. L. Green Co., Inc., in the heart of downtown Dallas. Thi-ee white men picketed with the Negroes, and one who would iden tify himself only as D. Hunter of Dallas said he was picketing “be cause I am a southern white who believes in the equality of man.” Says Will Continue The Rev. Rhett James, pastor of the Good Hope Baptist Church, said picketing of the big, block- long variety store would continue daily until all lunch counters in the store were integrated. “We’ll be here every day until this situation is cured,” James said. “We’ll be back again tomor row at 12 o’clock noon.” Although Hunter gave his name readily, neither of the other two white men would answer a news man’s questions. Both would mere ly smile and' shake their heads. Masonic Member One of the Negro pickets was an elderly, well-dressed man prom inently wearing a Shriner pin. He said he was R. R. Redis, 57, of Dallas and has been a member of Masonic organizations since 1922. A man with dignified bearing, Redis said he was “no minister but a lay worker.” He said he “had supported the National As sociation for the Advancement of Colored People.” James said the NAACP had nothing to do with the picketing. He said it was a local organiza tion, the Education Action Com mittee of Dallas County, that was carrying on the campaign for lunch counter integration. James said an S. H. Kress store in downtown Dallas would be the next target of the picketers. A group of three youths, joined at intervals by others, heckled and harried the pickets off and on dur ing most of the three hours. For a short while, a white-haired el derly man preached against inte gration as the pickets walked. ‘Ain’t Ordained’ The preacher, asked if he were an ordained minister, answered: “I ain’t ordained, but I preach at the church.” He said he preached at the Church of God Prophecy in West Dallas and identified him self as A. C. Dickerson. He ap peared to be in his late 60s but disappeared after telling a news man, “I don’t know what you mean by the press . . . what kind of press ? ” “Why don’t you put down that sign?” one of the three youths who stayed the entire three hours asked Hunter. “You ain’t no nig ger,” another said. SIEGE (Continued From Page 1) added load this week, only emer gency cases can be treated after 5 p.m., since the nurses are very busy upstairs taking care of patients. “We only have one nurse and an assistant nurse on duty at night, and with 30 patients, it creates a problem when students with minor ailments demand treatment after regular hospital hours,” said Dr. Lyons. Won’t Be Turned Down “Of course, if a student feels he needs to be admitted to the hos-, pital, we won’t turn him down. But in the past week, we have had to. tighten up on our treatment after hours,” he said. Besides colds, flu, sore throats and ear aches, the hospital has had a large number of blisters to treat since the start iof school, accord ing to Mrs. Homer Shultz, recep tionist at the hospital. , “We have had a large number of freshmen come in here with bad blisters, more so than in past years. This blister problem is to be expected, with over 2,000 fresh men breaking in their new military shoes, and the problem should die down eventually,” said Mrs. Shultz. “This year, we sent a letter out to all entering freshmen who planned to be in the Corps, advis ing them to buy their regulation shoes and break them in before they came to school. Unfortu nately, a large number of them bought the wrong kind, and we are planning to specify exactly what kind to buy, this next year,” she added.
