Beach Closed After Negroes Demand Entrance
Eight African Americans swam at St. Petersburg's all white beach and the area was closed soon after. City Manager Ross Windom said the beach would stay shut until the City Council decides the fate of the properties. Signs and guards were posted by the long Tampa Bay pier near the spa pool where the men requested entry. They wore locker-room attire but did not use the pool and instead walked onto the beach under police observation. The incident follows a Supreme Court order integrating facilities in this city and amid talks of selling or leasing the area to private operators.
