A new bus load of "freedom riders," including four white college professors and three Negro students, arrives in Montgomery, Ala.,, May 24, 1961, under guard of police and National Guard. Center, with glasses, is Rev. William S. Coffin, Jr. At left, partly hidden, is Dr. David E. Swift, and behind him, wearing glasses, is Dr. John D. Maguire. Plans to make a multimillion-dollar museum of the old Greyhound bus station have been rejected and redrawn for two years now. The station languishes on a long list of unfunded, unprioritized projects that have led to resignations and accusations of racial prejudice at the Alabama Historical Commission.
