The Supreme Court ruled 7 to 2 that the five year closure of Prince Edward County public schools to avoid integration was unconstitutional and ordered quick action to reopen, likely next fall. The decision empowered a federal judge to set reopening steps, while Atlanta’s gradual plan was postponed for review. Justice Black accused delay of denying constitutional rights and noted the original pupils are now beyond high school age.
