Court Rules Out Move by Wallace in Memphis
The Supreme Court ruled 8-0 against Governor Wallace's bid to block federal troops in Birmingham and dismissed his complaint seeking to overturn desegregation steps. The court sent the Memphis park desegregation dispute back for further action while noting constitutional rights to use parks should be promptly vindicated. Racial unrest across the nation continued with incidents in Boston and Manhattan as the Mississippi case lingered.
