NAACP wins delay for two defendants in segregation trial
Circuit Judge Joe M. Ingram granted a motion by the NAACP to postpone the trial of two defendants to the November term. The delay is sought because Thurgood Marshall of New York is ill and unavailable as counsel. Opposing counsel warned the postponement could push the case back about a year.

NAACP seeks delay in transfer of Columbia assault case
Alexander Looby of Nashville told the court he would file motions for abeyance of last week’s ruling to move the 25 defendants’ trial to Lawrenceburg. He said new information could have swayed the decision. The NAACP sought removal from Maury County but opposed Lawrenceburg as the site. Lawrenceburg residents and Mayor R O Downey protested holding the trial there. Defendants face charges of assault with intent to murder or accessory before the fact from disturbances in Columbia last February, where two Negroes died and 11 were injured.
