That Nursery- is unique in two respects as ‘far as Austin in concerned. It is both cooperative and interracial. The school is owned and managed by the parents. A board composed of officers and three members at large holds regular meetings and transacts the school’s business with the consent of the other members. General meetings of the members, which may be attended by friends of the group, are called from time to time. A mother is present at school each day to assist the nursery’s two teachers and fill in in case of an emergency. There are no specifications for the school’s two teachers except that they be educated in nursery school work. However, the school has had one white and one Negro teacher each year. “There is no rule saying we must have a Negro and a white teacher, but it is our philosophy,” Jefferson says. Why did the school become interracial? Jefferson says: “The parents were interested in interracial problems, and they were generally opposed to, segregation. We wanted to counteract the racial CLASSIFIED ADS To submit a classified ad, write Drawer F, Capitol Station, Austin. or call 70746.

We think that association between white and Negro children will … militate against racial hostility later. We also wanted to see something interracial done cooperatively, to show it is possible-between children and between parents.” Jefferson says that the experiment has also demonstrated that Austin people are not averse to interracial relations. This contrasts sharply with the predictions of many people who at the beginning expressed cordial interest but were sure that “they” wouldn’t allow it. Churches and other organizations have donated money and time. Articles about the school have appeared in the Austin paper, and no complaints, except from occasional telephone crackpots, have resulted. Jefferson thinks that one of the most important outcomes of the experiment is a byproduct: the understanding that has arisen between the parents from different races. “It’s something intangible,” he says. “We acquire a different attitude from working together. You lose all sense of racial differences. That is something you can’t achieve from intellectual conviction.” CITATION BY PUBLICATION THE STATE OF TEXAS TO Julia Godoy Defendant, in the hereinafter styled and numbered cause: You are hereby commanded to appear before the 126th District Court of Travis County, Texas, to be held at the courthouse of said county in the City of Austin, Travis County, Texas, at or before 10 o’clock A.M. of the first Monday after the expiration of 42 days from the date of issuance hereof ; that is to say, at or before, 10 o’clock A.
