Title: Bigots burn cross in Chicago.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-29703 BIGOTS BURN CROSS IN CHICAGO CHICAGO -- A cross burns in a Chicago street amid racial tensions.

The police car at right was used to knock down the cross and patrolmen quenched the flames. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-NY-8A-63-W)
