Duncan Negro Faces Eviction in Duncan School Fight
NAACP attorney Stuart Udall says terror tactics aimed at a Black Randolph family in Duncan were swapped for economic pressure, as landlord Warren Barney evicts father Earle Randolph after his children's bid to enroll. Cross burnings and gunshots followed attempts to educate the five children. The family's schooling was briefly authorized after a mandamus suit, then the eviction notice by the employer ended the plan.
