City requests use of facilities for bus caravan arrives
Thomas J. Shipp and Felton Alexander of the Urban League of Dallas petitioned City Manager Scott McDonald for facility use. About 100 to 200 people were expected to arrive by bus Saturday evening and depart by noon Sunday. In El Paso, 400 marchers were planned to arrive Thursday for the Poor People Campaign and would be housed and fed at the coliseum under the El Paso Churches Liaison Committee, which agreed to pay the coliseum’s $100 daily charity rental rate.
