KC Desegregation Case Faces New Questions
In Kansas City a federal desegregation case heard in U.S. District Court raised two issues. Should Missouri pay about 10.5 million annually for the Kansas City district plan, and should the school district’s law firm be disqualified for potential conflicts of interest. Judge Russell G. Clark said a ruling would come within 60 days. The case, filed May 1977, targets cross district busing and consolidation involving nine students and multiple districts and agencies.
