...only. "I feel funny," she said, "but it's nice of them to serve us." San Antonio (pop. 575,000) had responded to appeals from its Negro population (9%) for lunch-counter equality after several meetings of white and Negro clergymen, businessmen and store managers. Opened to Negroes without incident were lunch counters in seven variety and 23 drugstores. Also, six Negro students from Fisk University were served at Nashville's Greyhound bus terminal restaurant where, only two weeks before, 56 students had been arrested for refusing to leave while police searched for a reported bomb...

Even worse, they had apparently made no attempt to ration their food and had eaten it all in the first 16 days. But the ultimate test of survival technique is to survive, and on that basis, the Russians made a perfect score. By the time they were finally...
...independence within the British Commonwealth in 1948, and the Freedom Party of the late Prime Minister Solomon West Ridgway Dias Bandaranaike, who governed from 1956 until his assassination last September. In last week's election, the United Nationalists leaped from eight to 50 seats.
