Marchers Hit Bus Lines For Bias in South

Five Harvard students and Faculty members yesterday joined marchers them the Boston Committee on Racial quality in picket lines at local Trailways and Greyhound bus stations. The picketers were protesting racial discrimination the companies' southern facilities.

The demonstration was prompted by recent "Freedom Ride," sponsored by CORE. In that demonstration, a group of whites and Negroes traveled by bus from Washington, D.C. to New Orleans in order to test the Supreme Court decision outlawing all discrimination against inter passengers. During the trip, several members of the group were attacked and beaten by Alabama segregationists.

Carrying signs reading "Trailways Discrimination Against Negroes" and "Greybound in the South Ignores Supreme Court," the picketers marched up and down in front of the terminals on the Square and on St. James Avenue. William A. Gamson, research associate Social Psychology, Gabriel M. Kolko, teaching fellow in History, and Todd A. '63 formed half of the CORE brigade at the Greybound station.

At Trailways, Amy J. Cohen '64 and Thomas A. Timberg '64 joined the picket shortly after it got under way.

For the most part pedestrians ignored pickets, with many refusing the mimeographed material offered them. A large number of those questioned refused to comment, or said they did not know what demonstration was about. Those remarking usually expressed sympathy of the picketing.

It's a good thing; it's the only way to break the barrier," commented a taxi driver. One woman maintained, "They have a right to picked. That's all."
