Little Rock School Board Faces Desegregation Test
In Little Rock Arkansas the school board plans to desegregate four of five junior highs in response to a federal court speedup order, assigning 25 Negro eighth graders to previously all white schools and boosting Negro attendance at high schools including Technical High. The move follows past integration struggles and amid national racial tensions. Board vice president Russell Matson supports the aim but questions methods while board member Ted Lamb defends the moral imperative.
