Title: Clergyman dies in civil rights protest.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-30847 CLERGYMAN DIES IN CIVIL RIGHTS PROTEST CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The grim grin of shock spreads across the face of a civil rights demonstrator at the sight of a 26-year-old United Presbyterian clergyman’s dead body sprawled across the track of a bulldozer that ran over him at a Cleveland, Ohio, school construction site. The Rev. Bruce W. Klunder, a Student Christian Union leader on Cleveland area campuses, was killed as he threw himself onto the ground behind a bulldozer. Three other demonstrators had jumped in front of the bulldozer and it backed up over the minister. The operator of the machine said he didn’t know Mr. Klunder was in his path.

Title: Hattiesburg race effort continuing.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-31238 HATTIESBURG RACE EFFORT CONTINUING HATTIESBURG, Miss. -- Scenes of last January remained vivid in July, as the nation’s most comprehensive civil rights bill became law. Since minister, rabbis and Negroes of the community staged prolonged picketing in Hattiesburg, Miss., to protest voter registration practices an effort has been continued there on an interreligious, interracial basis to increase the number of registered Negro voters. The pattern of civil rights demonstrations across the nation is mirrored in the scenes here: a preparatory briefing in a local church (top left), prayer (top right) and petitioning God’s guidance through song, with hand’s linked to symbolize the united effort (bottom left) and peaceful picketing (bottom right). Local authorities, who initially permitted the demonstration within a specified area, later arrested nine United Presbyterian ministers and a Disciples of Christ clergyman on charges of disorderly conduct for having refused to follow police directions.
