GASTONIA — Accord
ing to YOBU News Service,
operating out of Greens
boro, the alleged murder of
Larry Robbins, a black, by
a white police officer, David
Hanrich. and Hanrich's
subsequent release by a
coroner’s jury was discuss
ed at length last week by
local members of Black
Citizens responsible for
Black Polks in tliis western
North Carolina city.
According to YOBU. E. L.
Draughan of Bessemer City,
four miles west of here, related
the killing of alleged police
brutaility in the case of a black
man suspected of having killed
a white policeman. The man
was at his mother's house, the
statement declared, when the
structure was surrounded by
city, county and state police.
When the man refused to walk
out of the house, police
reportedly poured kersolene
into the home, eventually
killing the man and setting the
house on fire.
The house, which belonged to
the man’s mother, was
completely burned down,
YOBU stated, but the law
enforcement authorities made
no attempt to compensate the
woman. She and her other
children were left with no place
to live.
The meeting, which drew
blacks from all over rural
Gaston County was chaired by
Commission for Racial Justice
officials. Rev. Ben Chavis.

CLOSED FOR A WEEK
There will be no edition of The CAROLINIAN for the
week of September 2-8.
This i.s the first lime in the near 34-.Year history of The
CAROLINIAN that such a decision was necessary to
allow all of its personnel a much needed vacation and
rest.
We ^e sure that our representatives, readers and
advertises will allow for this week’s void in their
preparation of news, photographs and advertisements.
Regular schedule for news correspondents will resume
a week later with deadlines as before.
Consideration of rescheduling any national or local
advertisement for the week of September 2 is
suggested.
