Marchers Exceed
Early Estimates
By DAVE HEPBURN
Early estimates of the numbers of buses and people
who would be journeying to Washington from Brooklyn
and Long Island were much lower than those who
actually participated. 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. *

Satisfies
a Man
The reign at Birdland begin-
nini* this Thursday (Sept 5) will
be shared by Maynard Ferguson,
monarch of the high note trum
pet, and King Curtis, tenor sax-
man born to the musical purple.
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?
