collection to his mother’s
house. Police say Muldrow
came at the arresting officer
with a hammer, a weapon that
some eyewitnesses say they
never saw in Muldrow’s hand.
While police refuse to say why
Muldrow was stopped, there
are indications that he and the
officer had had a run-in some
days earlier.
A similar incident took place
last May in Orangeburg when
22-year-old Emanuel Fogle was
pursued on suspicision of car
theft and shot in the back of
the head by a patrolman. Fogle
was unarmed and the car in
question was his sister’s. The
detective who fired said later
he had intreted a warning shot
by a companion as a shot by
Fogle; the detective was
subsequently acquitted of a
murder charge. A third Black,
Herbie Ron Morton, was shot
by a patrolman in Greenwood
in July after a high-speed auto
chase. Morton was allegedly
resisting arrest with a shotgun
wrestled away from a
patrolman.
Knife: A fourth man was
killed during a struggle with a
highway patrolman near
Charleston, and another was
shot after allegedly attacking a
Conway policeman with a
pocketknife. A sixth Black was
shot five times in the chest-but
not killed-by an Allenwood
policeman. In all these cases,
the arresting officers were
cleared of charges.
Not surprisingly, South
Carolina’s Black leaders
contend that there are two
kinds of justice in the state.
Frank Gilbert, NAACP head in
Florence and Muldrow’s
onetime high school counselor,
has argued: “There is no due
process in South Carolina for

Blacks the way there is for
whites. White lives have not
been taken like Black lives.”
The outcry over the killings led
Gov. James B. Edwards, a
conservative Republican who
was elected with little Black
support, to authorize a study
by the state’s Human Affairs
Commission into possible
discrimination in South
Carolina law enforcement. The
commission will study all
police shootings in the state
over the past five years-on
duty or off, white victims or
Black-to see if there has been
any discrepancy in the official
treatment of them. The final
report is due next June, when
the data will be turned over to
a biracial committee appointed
by Edwards to recommend
changes.
In the meantime, South
Carolina continues in what the
NAACP’s Williams calls a
“potentially explosive
situation.” There was sporadic
looting in Florence after the
Muldrow killing. The state’s
Black groups plan a mass
protest march in Columbia
later this month. “We do not
speak out in hostility or
anger,” said another NAACP
spokesman, “but because we
are tired of dying along the
road.”

BANDS AND SPECTATORS AT ALL CITY MARCHING BAND
FESTIVAL
All-City Marching Band Festival
By Stan Raines
Because he felt that many,
many people never had a
chance to see all of Richmond
County’s school bands
perform, A. Herndon Shaw,
coordinator of Music for The
Richmond County Board of
Education, originated the idea
of having an “All City
Marching Band Festival”.

Band Festival was held at
Butler Stadium and attracted a
record crowd of parents and
students who screamed, yelled
and cheered as their favorite
bands and all the other bands
performed.
There were eleven bands
featured in the concert/show,
plus one guest band which was
North Augusta High School.
The revenue received from this
event is to be divided between
the school bands to be used for
the purchase of equipment and
supplies or such other items as
the individual band directors
need for their respective bands.
This event was so successful
that it was decided to make it
an annual event and all of the
schools are already preparing
for next year’s festival Mr.
Shaw told the News-Review
that next year he expects to
have every marching band in
the system in the contest.
There are presently 14
marching bands in the
Richmond County system. He
said, “This will give the bands
and directors something to
look forward to.”
Shaw also stated that plans
are being formulated for an All
City Concert Band, Orchestra
and Chorus. This will include
students from all of the bands
in the CSRA and all levels of
education from elementary
school to senior high school In
addition to this there will be a
Jazz Ensemble organized from
the students of the area’s seven
high schools and three
choruses, one from each level
of education elementary
through senior high. Shaw
further sa>d, “We are trying to
put a survey of dancing in the
curriculum.” “This will be
creative dancing and show
dancing such as soft shoe,
social dancing will not be
included in this program, we
will have a pilot program in
one of the schools hopefully
by the second semester next

year. A dance company will be
in the county in February to
give a dance lecture
demonstration. “We will also
have a program of vocals and
instrumentals at the Bell
Auditorium on March 23rd and
25th of next year. This
program was held at Augusta
College last year but the
facility couldn’t accomodate
the crowd. We had to turn
back over 200 people ten
minutes before the beginning
of the program.”
We also have a program
called the Noteic Organization
of Talent Exchange. This is a
program in which a high school
band goes to Fort Gordon and
practices and reheases with the
Army Band in the morning,
