good Marshall, legal consiil for

has been chosen for a high federal
judgeship by President Kennedy.
Marshall, who has argued the
civil rights cases for the NAACP
in court since 1938, was chosen
Saturday for the U. S. 2nd Circuit
Court of Appeals in New York.
The appointment is expected to
draw strong controversy and op
position with Southern Democrats.
The Senate must confirm Mar

first pass through the Judiciary
Committee headed by Sen. James

been identified with the most
adamant Southern foes of racial
desegregation.
