plauds yesterday's action by
the U. S. Supreme Court ruling
against the neighborhood
school concept and anti-busing
laws.
The SCLC has been south
wide anti-busing laws as at- i

school house, relegated to the
black community. However,

avalanche of indignation and
outrage to adhere to a notion
of the neighborhood school.
The SCLC takes the posi

all students regardless of race,

position of support for "dese
gregation," "integration," or
