COLUMBIA N. C . Aug. 19-
(UP)— A mob of White townsfolk
forced a group of visiting White
students to leave town because
they lived in a Negro home while
building a money-lending office for
the local Negro credit union. Po-
lice Chief J. L. Poston disclosed
today.
The students packed their bag-
gage and left town by bus last
Tuesday exactly three hours be-
fore expiration of a 24 hour ulti-
matum to “get out of town.”
Poston said that the mob milled
around the bus before it left but
that there was no violence.
Will Norcum, sawmill operator
and spokesman for the mob blunt-
ly ordered S. P. Dean, former

Death Pending
principal of the Columbia Negro
high school to "get the students
out of town by Tuesday night at
7 o'clock "
The visiting students, chaperon-
ed by a White married couple were
living in Dean's six-bedroom home
sleeping on double-decker army
bunks.
Dean heads the "Light of Ty-
rrell." a credit union for Negro
farmers, named after Tyrrell
county in northeast North Caro-
lina. The students, affiliated with
the Fellowship ol Southern Church-
es came here during the summer
vacation to help Dean build a cred-
it union office next to his home
Dean said that borrowers were
using his home for an office and
that business had grown to such
proportions that the credit union
demanded a separate office.
Mrs Dean said that the stu-
dents made their own bunks and
cooked their own meals in the
