Fortnight after its first victory in Nashville, Tenn.. the Negro sit-in movement for equality at Southern lunch counters won its second victory last week, when five downtown variety stores in Winston-Salem, N.C. opened their counters to Negroes without discrimination.

What the detectives saw was encouraging: whites and Negroes sat side by side without disorder, insults or even stares, as if things had never been any different.
