Federal Judge Richard D. Rogers dismissed two class actions accusing the Topeka Board of Education of failing to desegregate as ordered by Brown v. Board. He invited intervention in the revived Brown case and added Gov. John Carlin and the state Board of Education as defendants. The judge broadened the plaintiffs to include all present and future black students in Topeka public schools.
