Judge Gjler R. dark, Is white. Anotherfactor some observers consider important, is that the average age of all of the jurors is estimated to be over fifty. Reaction of the towns people to the question of . whether a black can get a fair trial in this town where the old slave market is now a museum in .the 'center of the central business district, is uncertain. Maxine Dix, an unem ployed mother of three, said she feels that Terry McDougal has a chance "to get a -fair, trial, but not here. . I feel like there is too much going against him " A resi dent in Terry's neighborhood, Ms. Dix says that the accused murderer has been "one of the most . respectful young men in the area his age". Ann Jones of Smith Place, approached by a reporter on the , street , said that she. felt Terry could not ; get a fab trial in Cumberland County. "It's just like it .always has been and it's never changed," said ' the attractive young woman.

The Superior court decision was upheld by the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court.
