Mr. Liebeler. In the 6000 block?
Mrs. Smith. I think so. I am not sure.
Mr. Liebeler. This is Beauregard we are talking about?
Mrs. Smith. Beauregard; yes.
Mr. Liebeler. Can you tell me the area the people that went to Beauregard Junior High School came from? Was it just the area surrounding the school, or did they come from all parts of New Orleans, or just how did they decide who was to go to that high school?
Mrs. Smith. Each high school has its own district, so that the people that lived in Lakeview went to Beauregard. If you lived in Gentilly, you couldn't go to Beauregard unless you got a permit from the school board.
Mr. Liebeler. What kind of neighborhood was it? What kind of a district was it that Beauregard drew its students from back in 1954, and 1955?
Mrs. Smith. Well, it's a nice neighborhood, it still is today.
Mr. Liebeler. Has it changed much since then?
Mrs. Smith. No; I don't think so.
