Playboy Club Suit
Hailed By Leg’al

New York N. Y. — The NA

week praised the Playboy Cluh
of New Orleans for i) ■ sui;
against Louisiana lows prohibit
ing Negroes from attcnJir.g the
Club.
, Jack Greenberg, the Fund’s
director-counsel, called the
Playboy suit a major legal step
by a private firm aimed
I at breaking down racial barriers
, in the South.
I ‘‘It is encourag ng to sec a
' private corporation invoke the
U. S. Constitution in seek'ng to
j open its entertainment facilit.es
to all citizens,” Mr. Greenberg
' said.
j The Playboy suit also asks
the Court to issue an injunQ-
tion restraining the defendants,
who include Governor John
McKeithen, Mayor Victor Schl-
ro. and other state and city of
ficials, from enforcing the dis
criminatory laws or the segre
gationist policies they embody.

throughout the Unted States. A

However, the exact number
