- Injunction served during racial prayer service.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-29735 INJUNCTION SERVED DURING RACIAL PRAYER SERVICE CLARKSDALE, Miss. -- One of the few Clarksdale, Miss., white men to step inside the city’s First Baptist church during a prayer service for racial unity was a county deputy sheriff. He served an injunction on two of 36 ministers from several states who traveled to Clarksdale at the request of the National Council of Churches’ special Commission on Religion and Race. The injunction, while not applicable to the religious observance in the Negro church, was a sweeping ban against virtually all types of integration demonstrations. None of the approximately 20 white Clarksdale clergymen took part in the prayer service. The NCC commission and Clarksdale Negro ministers held the service in an effort to establish communication with local authorities. The injuction was handed here to the Rev. Brad Minturn, left, a Protestant Episcopal minister of Silver Spring, Md., and the Rev. Gerald Forshey, a leader of the Interracial Council of Methodists in Chicago, Ill.

- Procession opens racial prayer service.
- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-29736 PROCESSION OPENS RACIAL PRAYER SERVICE CLARKSDALE, Miss. -- A bi-racial group of 36 ministers from 11 states and the District of Columbia joined Clarksdale, Miss., Negro clergymen in a prayer service for the “healing of Christ’s body torn apart by racial segregation.” The visitors went to the heavily-segregated city at the request of the National Council of Churches’ special Commission on Religion and Race, which has tried to open integration discussions with local authorities. The service in the Negro First Baptist church was preceded by a gathering of the clergymen in the nearby Haven Methodist church, also a Negro congregation. Leading a procession to the interracial service -- which drew only a handful of Clarksdale whites and no local white clergymen -- were Dr. Robert Dodds, right, of New York City, general director of planning for the NCC, and the Rev. C.D. Coleman of Memphis, Tenn., general secretary of the Board of Christian Education, Christian Methodist Episcopal Church. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (1-NY-8C-63-NBM)

The parish pastor, Father Christopher Schneider, O.F.M., inspects the damage which shattered hopes for the school to be reopened this September. Investigators found three five-gallon gasoline cans on the roof of the school. One can still contained gasoline. A burned path about 50 feet long to the school indicated a fuse had been set and then lighted. Archbishop John P. Cody of New Orleans termed the blast “an outrage that must be deplored by every right-thinking person.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (NS-NO-8E-63-RB)

Father Oetgen said Belmont Abbey had been praised for inviting the evangelist -- “but after hearing Dr. Graham, I think instead of praise we should have been blamed for having waited so long.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (FRE-NC-11E-63-W)
