HYANNIS PORT Massachusetts President Kennedy reportedly will send an adjourning Senate today the nomination of Thurgood Marshall lawyer mastermind of Negro integration strategy as a federal appellate judge. Marshall longtime counsel for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People would be the second Negro appointed to a federal Circuit Court of Appeals. The first was Judge William Hastie who now sits on the appellate bench in Philadelphia. Reliable sources confirm a report that Kennedy settled on Marshall for one of the new Vacancies in the 3rd Circuit centering in New York. Some opposition appears certain as Senate Judiciary Committee head James Eastland D Mississippi opposes the integration cause Marshall has promoted in and out of courts.
