Woman M-fwAl lacks in her seat or knock her books off of her desk. Bradley says the hardest part was having to face the crowds alone "Sometimes that's what's very difficult to get people to understand that while Greens boro was not as overtly racist as Little Rock that they were never by themselves." she said. "And that's a difference. 1 was over here by myself with almost 2,000 students and it was an extremely . frightening experi ence because 1 didn't know what to expect." Though Bradley received escorts to the bathroom and ate lunch in the library to minimize her problems, the teenager still endured a lot. Eventually she befriended two white girls and a German exchange student. Through her ordeal, Bradley remained calm and didn't retal iate - though she admits the thought crossed her mind sever al times. "There were many days 1 was tempted to pick up a ketchup bottle and throw it back," Bradley said. "I remember one day when I had an altercation between me and one of the guys at school. The teacher told me that if I hit him back I would be sent home" It was an old familiar church tune that kept Bradley 1 in line. "My favorite song was "We've Come This Far by Faith," and I literally had to sing that to myself to keep myself calm. If I hadn't, I prob ably would have acted in a more violent way." As the months went by, attacks on Bradley shifted from school to her home. "We did get quite a bit of reaction from the neighbors," said Cora Boyd. "We had a tree chopped down across the road. We had nails driven in my tires and rocks thrown down the chimney. "On a whole we got thrbugh it." Though the daily grind weighed heavily on Bradley both mentally and physically, she was able to stay focused enough in the classroom to fin ish in the top 10 percent of her class. After graduation Bradley went on to pursue a higher edu cation getting her undergradu ate degree in political science and sociology from N.C. Cen tral University in 1963. The same year she got married and had two children. In the last four years Bradley has gone back to school to attain a master's degree and doctorate from Emory Univer sity while teaching at Clark Atlanta College and Morehouse College. Many of her students do not realize their professor is a legend in the Civil Rights Movement. "I don't talk about it unless it is appropriate when we're talking about education," she said. Bradley is content with that. She stopped looking for any special recognition after a 1958 ceremony involving herself and other black students who grad uated from white schools. "The NAACP had us come tg Cleveland for the national NAACP meeting," Bradley said. "I was introduced but the Little Rock Nine were recog nized as 'the people who had done a major contribution.' "I probably came in two days before they did and I was told I was to keep a low profile once they got there because the conference was really focused around them." Ironically since that time Bradley has only been back to Grimsley High School twice. She also has yet to attend a class reunion. She's never received an invitation. "What made me the angriest was that they took away my right to make a choice as to rather I wanted to come or not come," she said. "To think that after 30 something years that nothing has changed." Looking back on what she has done, Bradley doesn't try to assess the her effect on the Guil ford County School System. "I have very mixed feelings about it," she said. "On one hand I feel that it was a necessi ty," Bradley said. "On the other hand I feel very much like I wasted a year of my life because what is there now 30 some years to show for it? "It's always been the black students that have really had to make the sacrifice-busing or whatever and then they're not allowed to really become a part of the whole school. "In a lot of ways it's been a disappointment, but then on the other hand you realize that many opportunities would not have been possible if it did not happen," Bradley said.

Clinton from page A4 witnesses is "realty sort of the big question, I guess. It's a trial, but it isn't a trial in the sense of what I'm used to doing. I would think that the Senate would allow the mem bers of the House Judiciary Com mittee manager team to present the case as they feel it is appropri ate to present it." But senators sought to make clear that they aim to control the trial. "I don't think we should turn the proceedings over to the House managers," said Sen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss. Rep. Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas, a former federal prose cutor, said he too favors calling witnesses "to adequately present the case." But he acknowledged, "there are a lot of different ideas on how to present a case." One House prosecutor. Rep. George Gekas of Pennsylvania, said he has "no strong feelings that IJ wt UIUIU gain some thing front a witness which is not contained in the docu mentary evi dence, espe cially if there is a stipula tion to it." But he added that he "would defer to the president" if Clinton believes he needs to call witnesses for his defense. Senators have been talking by phone with each other about the conduct of a trial but were not expected to make any decisions until they return to Washington next Wednesday. One option is to take an early trial recess to let Clinton respond to the two House-approved arti cles of impeachment - a period when negotiations to censure the president can go into high gear. A second option is to avoid a long recess, complete a trial and have the Senate decide whether to remove Clinton from office by a two-thirds vote. A third possibility is to neither convict nor acquit Clinton, but end the trial by a simple majority vote. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Orrin G. Hatch, It Utah, said in Seatac, Wash., that a censure would be "a powerful tool" against Clinton. Speaking at a business seminar. Hatch said censure is "the only option left" because two-thirds of the Senate will not vote to convict Clinton and remove him from office. However, many Republicans have rejected the predominant Democratic view that censure is the best way to punish Clinton. "You know, it's not the Senate's job to punish the president," said Sen. Mike DeWine, R-Ohio. "Our job is frankly to try this case, to lis ten to the evidence of the case and make a determination of whether or not there's enough evidence that the president needs to be removed from office."
