Pleas Made To Obey Law In Mississippi
In Oxford Mississippi Governor Ross Barnett and local clergymen urged obedience to law as federal marshals warned of possible new incidents around the Ole Miss football game against the University of Houston. The game was moved to Jackson about 200 miles away amid fears after two deaths and many injuries on campus. James Meredith, the university’s first Black student, was not expected in Oxford and officials said he would be off campus. Justice Department officials balanced the risk of violence with the importance of the game as a major event for the college and alumni. The department considered shifting the game to another site if warranted by military judgment.
