Supreme Court To Rule On Ghetto Legislators
The Supreme Court will hear Indiana’s appeal over multimember districts that lump center township ghetto residents with suburban voters. If upheld, the ruling could require redrawing to give urban black and poor residents direct representation, affecting 38 states. Indiana argues no constitutional right to singled out representation exists.

AP Erroneous Martin Contempt Conviction Report
The Court of Special Appeals ruled that John H. Martin was in contempt of court, not convicted, for photographing inside Allegany County courthouse during a recess. Martin, tied to Frostburg's People's Guardian, challenged the jury trial right. AP notes the error and corrects that Andrew Jackson won the plurality of votes but not the presidency.
