Public Meeting
Endorses Decision
BY JIM CLOTFELTER
"We are ceasing picketing at the Chapel Hill thea
ters with no intention of resuming."
The Rev, Charles Jones of the Citizens Committee
for "Open" Movies told a public meeting last week the
picketing group had decided to let the theater managers
work out an-integration solution "without pressure from
us."
The meeting was Tuesday, March 28, at St. Joseph's
AME Church on W. Rosemary Street.
The decision to stop picketing, said Executive Com
mittee Chairman Mary Mason of North Carolina College
in Durham came out of an interview with the district
manager for the Carolina Thea
ter in Chapel Hill.
District manager is W. J. En
loe, also"! mayor of Raleigh.
"He told us that he did not
'want to integrate under
threat,' " said Miss Mason.
The Rev. Jones said that the
citizens committee was "leav
ing the district manager free to
work the problem out as he
thinks right.
'Pass The Word'
"When he wants to integrate,
he'll pass the wyord along to in
dividual Negroes. There will be
no public announcement."
There was no assurance that
the other Chapel Hill theater,
the Varsity, would follow suit,
if the Carolina integrated.
But local observers feel that
the Varsity will integrate if the
older, larger Carolina does.
Jones was asked if persons
favoring his cause should con
tinue to boycott the two local
theaters.
"Let each person act accord
ing to his own conscience."
No Statement
Jones said the group would
not make a statement for or
against a continued boycott, be
cause that would be "a form
of pressurei-
The decisions were made by
an assembly of the pickets. The
assembly was previous to the
mass meeting, which was open
to the public.
There -was outspoken opposi
tion from" several pickets, who
favored continuing the boycotts
and picketing.
Miss Mason stated that the
citizens committee might take
up picketing elsewhere "if the
occasion arose." .
