He will preach from the subject: “The Church On The March." with Judge Williams that the case should remain pending arfd that during this time the plain tiffs should carry it to the state courts. Attorneys for the teach ers contend the case should have been decided by the U. S. District Court and that the Su preme Court should hold the statute unconstitutional. In their brief to the High Court the attorneys argue that the South Carolina Act is un constitutional on the ground that it destroys the right to freedom of speech and assem bly, denies equal protection of the laws, and that it inflicts punishment without judicial trial. NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund attorneys for the Negro teachers are Thurgood Marstiall, Robert L. Carter and Jack Greenberg of New York City, and Lincoln C. Jenkins, Jr., of Columbia, S. C. -Teacher Case- (continued from page 1) for refusing to answer question naires as to their membership with the, NAACP and their views as to the desirability of segregation in the schools. The statement challenges the con stitutionality of the South Caro lina statute. The action is on appeal from the y. S. District Court for the Eastern ^District of South Caro lina, Charleston Division, where the Act was first challenged be fore a three-judge court consis ting of Chief Judge John J. Par- Icer, District Judges George Bell Timmerman and Ashton H. yfniiapn. The teachers then sought an order restraining state officials from enforcing the statue. Judge Williams, In his opln- ion, declared: “There is no dispute as to the facts. Plaintiffs are seventeen Negro ~ teachers, who had been employed in ^EUoree Training School of School District No. 7 of Orangeburg County, South Carolina, prior to June 1956 for varying periods of time; one as long as ten yers. There is evi dence to the effect that they were competent teachers and there is no evidence that their service was unsatisfactory in any way...” “When plaintiffs in May of ^1956 were given blank appli cations by the School Superin tendent to be filled out and ■worn to, which ccintained ques tions as to their membership in the Association and their views as to desirability of segregation in the schools, tlicy declined to answer these questions. Only one of the plaintiffs, however, was a member of the Associa tion. Upon being told that they would have to fill in the an swers or tender their resigna tions, they chose the latter course and were not electe^ for the ensuing year." Each member of the District Court wrote a separate opinion. Judge Timmerman -Older Boys- (continued from page 1) Annual banquet on Saturday evening with the address by J. D.
