Court Will Hear Complaint on Segregated Schools
The Supreme Court agreed to rule on a complaint that Negroes are denied integrated educational facilities in Illinois. Parents in St. Clair County say the Community Unit School Dist. No. 187 drew attendance boundaries to force segregation and ran separate classes for white and Negro pupils. The appeal seeks federal action to remedy equal protection violations. The book theft note about returning overdue library books follows a separate line.
