Court upholds Cincinnati affirmative action fire fighter program
The Supreme Court let stand a 1974 consent decree granting Cincinnati a goal to boost black firefighters to 18 percent, rejecting white applicants’ reverse discrimination challenge. The case cites prior rulings and notes nine of the white plaintiffs have since become firefighters, while the quota system remains central to minority representation in the Fire Division.

In Los Angeles, doctors at Children's Hospital Los Angeles perform a two minute cord blood based gene therapy on Andrew Goben, a newborn with severe combined immunodeficiency. If successful, the procedure could spare him bone marrow transplants and drug injections and pave the way for treating other disorders such as sickle cell anemia and AIDS.
