The park is owned by the
city but leased to the Bulls lor
their home games.
Several attempts in the past
have i>een made to crack the
segregation barrier at Durham
Athletic park, to no avail. The
most recent venture came some
three years ago when a Negro:
group, attempted, through an
exchange of correspendence
with city and Durham Bulls
officials, to negotiate the issue.
At that time, however, the;
group gave up the attempt at'
ter a long period and reported,
that the city and baseball club
officials had “passed the buck”
on the matter and it had be
come lost in the switching back)
and forth of responsibility in
the matter of seating.
Legal precedents have iieeu
set for sometime in the Issue ol)
segregation In municipally own
ed facilities. Some years ago,
the Supreme Court ruled out
segregation In public recrea
tional facilities in a case invol
ving Seashore Park at Norfolk.
Va.
In North Carolina, two case*
have been brought in recent
gionths which have also follow
ed the Supreme Court’s ruling
In the Norfolk case.
At Charlotte, a state Judge
ruled out segregation at the city
owned golf course. Judge Susie
Sharp of Superior Court issued
the ruling almost a year ago.
In Greensboro, a case paralel-
ling the one In Charlotte has all
but t>een settled, from all Indl-
oatipnSj along the same lines.
Federal Judge Johnson J. Hayesi
has told lawyers in the case that
he will- rule against segregation
at the Greensboro Gillespie
Park Golf Course.
Speculation this week ram
largely in two directions. Some
observers feel that Negroes will
be admitted without hesitation
to any seat they choose when
the Bulls open their season here.
However, others voiced the
opinion that city and club offi
cials will put up token resis
tance to the move toward aban
doning segregation at the park.
The Bulls were slated to open
against Greensboro Wednesday
night.
