More than 350 buses, hqndreds of private cars and many more hundreds of people who traveled by train, and by airlines, made the trek. From Westchester, the Coordinating Committee, work­ ing closely with the Urban League sent over 110 buses and 100 private cars to the March on Washington. Churches In The Fray Churches in particular did their bit. From all the boroughs and especially Brooklyn, church­ es had dqne a tremendous job of coordinating their groups and of getting them off early. Many of'the church groups were lost in the shuffle because they were made part of a total NAACP caravan. But the work of church groups and the ministers them­ selves cannot be denied. The Jamaica and St. Albans arep were parflctriarly success­ ful witn their own gimmick. Sev- cause, which he had ever seen; Julian Garfield of the Transit Authority; Rev. Milton Galami- son who bad a big group with him; Lewis Flagg, and Lena Horne. Miss Home said: “You see me in high boots, an old shirt and this NAACP forage cap; I am no celebrity today; just a good old Brooklynite doing he bit for democra^v." Most groups have reported pic­ king good tim£.fback without too much incident. One of our re­ porters encountered a little dif­ ficulty (see story on this page I and Rebecca Reid of Westches­ ter reported that with some oth­ ers, she was refused service in a Maryland restaurant on the road. When the group seemed annoyed, the restaurant owner said: “I thought this was a peace­ ful demonstration.” “You should see us when we get mad,” the 14-year old girl said. * The air-conditioned Morningsioc Theatre, 116th St. and Eighth Ave., presents “Thunder of Drums” and "The Vikins." Fri­ day, Sept. 6. ' Three big features will be pre­ sented on Saturday. Sept. 7.

The famed jazz mecca will spot­ light Ferguson's big band and the Curtis sextet in a 2 week romp. While Maynard’s mighty crew keeps things jumping with sixt­ iers like “Lullaby of Birdland.” the kingly Curbs group will do likewise by tearing into “Soul Twist" and other hit discs to the leader's credit. Both attrac­ tions scored with gusto in their previous Birdland dates, so why not this time too? turn to the City from California where she has served as teacher- counselor in the Compton School System for the past seven years. The Phi Delta Kappa was hon­ ored at a dinner by Mrs. Lula McGowan at Longchamps, which was followed by a tour of the United Nations. /' Well Travelled Mrs. McGowan and the Com­ mittee of Friends of Helen Beas­ ley saluted the honoree for attain­ ing the status of Fellow in the American Association on Mental Deficiency In recognition of her meritorious contribution to the field of retardation and education.
