Two Federal Courts Rule to Desegregate Virginia Schools
In Richmond, two federal courts strengthened desegregation efforts in Virginia. The 4th Circuit ordered Arlington County to admit four Negro students to Stratford Junior High, upholding a prior ruling that race blocked the transfer from a Negro school. A separate three judge panel issued a permanent injunction preventing closure of any public school solely over integration, while leaving others open on a segregated basis. Arlington weighs an appeal, and Norfolk faces a mixed funding and closure dispute as officials consider options.
