State Fair
Building In SC
COLUMBIA, S. C. (UPI) —
The State Fair Association es
timated today it will take $1.5
million to replace a historic ex
hibition building that burned to
the ground in a spectacular fire
Thursday.
The structure, known as the
Steel Building although it was
made mostly of wood, collapsed
amidst leaping flames and
smoke seen 20 miles away.
The building, largest on the
state fairgrounds, was first built
in Virginia in 1901.
Six teen - aged musicians
were practicing in the building
shortly before dusk when they
noticed lights going on and off
as though a short circuit had
developed.
They said fire suddenly start
ed near several poultry cases
in a corner of the building.
Flames quickly raced to the
roof and through the rafters.
The boys grabbed their guitars
and fled.
Two firemen received minor
injuries fighting the fira. The
blaze knocked out electrical
power briefly in nearby neigh
borhoods.
Negro Writer
Critical Of
King’s Activities
MIAMI (UPI)—Negro news
man - author George Schuyler
charged Thursday night that Dr.
Martin Luther King’s civil
rights activities have had a
“disasterous” effect on Ameri
can Negroes.
Schuyler, a veteran national
correspondent for the Pitts
burgh Courier and author of two
novels, told a University of Mi
ami audience King has also
“made the Negro look ridicu
lous.
“King has produced the Im
age of an Impoverished, illiter
ate, undisciplined and ignorant
individual," Schuyler said.
“This picture is simply not
true.”
Schuyler said that racial con
ditions In the South “have been
greatly exaggerated” and add
ed that “the death of two or
three people doesn’t mean a
reign of terror.”
He called the President’s war
on poverty “phony” and said
that it was “making a sham
bles of the Negro community.
There will always be people In
the low Income group,” he said.
