'SNCC Sellar' Opens

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The first store in the country to be operated by the Friends of SNCC opened last night in Cambridge. The new store will help remedy the civil rights group's severe fund-shortage.

"SNCC Sellar," located beneath the Ploughshare at 30 Brattle Street, will be the chief outlet for goods produced by the Poor People's Corporation. This group was formed to sell the wares of Negroes put out of work by plantation strikes in the summer of '64. They make mainly leather goods and ceramics.

Don Shaw, manager of the new store, said he also plans to feature the works of local artisans. The profits will go to SNCC.
