Order Injunction to Let Negro Into Ole Miss
The 5th U S Circuit Court ordered Judge Sidney Mize to issue an injunction forcing the University of Mississippi to admit James Meredith, the first desegregation case affecting Mississippi. The court found Mize erred in ruling Meredith was rejected on non racial grounds and criticized delays in the university's handling of the suit begun 17 months earlier. Meredith, an Air Force veteran, awaits graduation at Jackson State College and faces credit losses and GI benefits issues upon transfer. Ole Miss plans to appeal to the Supreme Court likely after state officials comment.
