Question

Read the following selection from the article. "Selma's Mayor Blocks another March Attempt," The Washington Times Herald, March 11, 1965, front page Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the selection above? A Selma's mayor was sympathetic toward the motivations of the marchers. B The state troopers were no longer involved with the protesters after Bloody Sunday. C The marchers tried to continue their protest even after the violence of Bloody Sunday. D The Washington Times Herald waited several days to cover the march in Selma.

Answer 1

The correct answer is **C**. The headline itself indicates another march attempt was being blocked *after* a previous one. This implies that despite the events of Bloody Sunday (which clearly involved violence against the marchers), further attempts to march were being made. The headline gives no indication of the mayor's sympathies (A), the state troopers' involvement (B), or the newspaper's timing of coverage (D).
