U S district court in Newark upholds the school board’s appointment of Negro administrators over more senior white teachers. Judge Anthony Augelli ruled the 20 of 55 Negro appointments last year did not violate civil rights, citing the aim to promote students’ educational welfare amid a largely Black and minority student population.
