...brutal attack on the friendly and generous Newsome caused outrage in the tiny mountain town, brought the local Ku Klux Klan out of the shadows and put tremendous pressure on police.

Said Samuel Royer, Maryland Grand Dragon of the Invisible Empire Knights of the Ku Klux Klan...
...groups will not cross. Police have set aside four acres of a parking lot across the street from the main entrance to the center, and 25 groups, ranging from the Marijuana Initiative to anti-Reagan rock musicians, have filed to use it more or less continuously.
