12 (A5) Two Negroes integrated Central High School today as club-swinging police held back a crowd of jeering: segregationists. Elizabeth Eckford, 17, and Jefferson Thomas, 16, walked quietly Into the massive school to Join 1400 white students. A block away, nearly 400 white men, women and children milled at an Intersection where violence exploded only an hour earlier. Some in the crowd had taken part in a march on Central from the State Capitol. Gov.

Orval E. Faubus told a segregationist rally there that nothing was to be gained by fighting in the streets. Police Chief Gene Smith and a score of patrolmen met the marchers 200 strong-just before they reacheS Central. He. shouted for the parad-ers to disperse but his order brought yells of defiance and cries of "you cowards." Swiftly, officers closed with the marchers.

Several men were beaten on their head, with billy clubs. A fire truck was standing by and Smith had it turn hoses on the crowd. The demonstration wavered and broke. Later it formed again and was reinforced by others who booed and catcalled police. At least 24 persons were arrested.

Three were teenage girls, hauled kicking and screaming to police cars. Inside Central, classes went on peacefully and the two Negroes ended their first day without incident.

The School Board, determined to obey Federal integration mandates, assigned three Negroes to Hall and three to Central for the new term.

Sixty Negroes registered for ouee-whlte high schools but the board assigned the other 54 to Horace Mann High School under a state pupil placement law. A few white students stood on the lawn in front of Central as Thomas and Elizabeth Eckford approached the entrance. No words were passed. The segregationist rally on the Capitol lawn this morning was orderly. A thousand persons displayed antiinte-gration placards and sang "Dixie" to the strains of a phonograph in a sound truck.

Faubus showed up an hour after the rally began. He was cheered wildly during and after a brief speech. The Governor to'd the segregationists he was behind them, but cautioned against violence. "Let us continue the struggle and never grow weary," Faubus said, "but let us do this in a way of which our posterity can be proud." The word had not effect on some. Led by the sound truck, still blaring "Dxie, the march to Central got under way.
