Ander­ son, crusading president of the Albany, Ga. Movement, has been ordered to return to Albany for a hearing on Oct. 7 on a conspiracy charge by a Federal Court Judge here. U. S. District Judge Thomas P. Thornton, overruling Dr. An­ derson's protests that he faced certain conviction if he. had face trial in Albany, ordered him to return, but suggested that Dr. Anderson could seek a change of venue of the trial. Dr. Anderson, who now makes his home in Detroit where he is studying advanced clinical work, was one of several Albany, Ga., civil rights leaders indicted by a federal grand jury on August 9 for obstructing justice. He and two others were charg­ ed with conspiracy to picket nud boycott a grocery store because the owner, as a juror in a Fed­ eral civil suit last spring, had voted against a Negro plaintiff in a damage suit against a local sheriff. Dr. Anderson is free under $5,000 personal bond. Teachers In N.C. Town Back Drive ATLANTA, Ga. - After being eye-witnesses to police brutality in breaking up a student demon- ~ stration at the E. J.

Their ’ petition stated in part: “We can I no longer be passive after wit- i nessing the brutish, drastic mea­ sures taken by the police with- - out taking an immediate and ac- . live part in the fight for free­ dom.
