The Augusta News-Review - July 5, 1973 - High Court Warns North Os De Facto Bias WASHINGTON—In a decision applying to the Denver school system in particular and Northern school systems in general, the Prepare Your Child ’ For Vist To Clinic Some useful suggestions for parents who take their children to hospital clinical facilities in the community. Cynthia Butler The clinics in our community provide adequate services for both the adult and child at a price that puts potential good health within the reach of all people.

Tell your child WHAT a clinic is. Blacks Banned From Swimming Pool The Department of Justice filed a civil suit and an application for a restraining order yesterday to require the •' operators of a Leesburg, Georgia swimming pool to allow Blacks to use its facilities. Attorney General Elliot L. Richardson said the suit and restraining order application against Lee County Social Club, Inc., were filed in U.S. District Court in Macon, Georgia. Also named as defendants are B.E. Gunter, president of the club, and O.W. Collins, the manager. The suit charged the defendants have denied, discouraged and prevented Blacks from using or attempting to use the pool facilities by falsely representing to them that the pool is a private club for the exclusive use by members only. The suit said that in every year since 194, the pool management has made the facilities available to the first 200 white persons who apply for membrship cards. The pool is the only one in the county. According to the suit, there are no membership dues, no membership list maintained, and each member-cardholder must pay a thirty-five cent charge each time he uses the pool’s facilities. The restraining order, if approved by the court, would temporarily stop the pool’s operators from refusing to allow Blacks to use the pool, pending disposition of the Department’s suit.

Miss Lacy Attends Convention Miss Reta Jo Lacy, librarian ■ cataloger at Morris Brown College, Atlanta, Georgia is attending the National Convention of the American Library Association. The Convention is being held in Las Vegas, Nevada, from June 24 through June 30. This is an all - expense paid trip for Miss Lacy granted by Morris Brown College. She is traveling with the Georgia Library Association, who sponsored a complete chartered tour to the convention, including travel service, hotel accommodations, meals and entertainment. The program for the convention will cover every phase of librarianship including the major advancements and setbacks which are confronting libraries and librarians today. Companies whose products are used by librarians will be represented at the convention’s vast exhibition.

Except for rare instances where geography divides a school district into substantial portion of the district will suffice to support a finding by the trial court of the existence of a dual system. “Os course, where the finding is made, as in cases involving statutory (Southern) dual systems, the school authorities have an affirmative duty ‘to effectuate a transition to a racially nondiscriminatory school system’,” Justice William J. Brennan Jr. wrote for the majority. In so ruling, the high court applied in the North some of the legal principles used in desegregation cases in the South.

According to the Court, this move amounted to an unconstitutional act. Previously, plaintiffs had no trouble proving a constitutional violation of the law in the South, where the age-old practice of desegregation existed by law. However, under the recent ruling, plaintiffs in the North, where segregation does not exist by law but rather in practice -- such as housing patterns -- must prove that a deliberate and official act of segregation has occurred. Justice Brennan pointed out that such proof can be obtained even in a state like Colorado, where there is no history of de jure segregation and which is forbidden in the state constitution. Once the discriminatory act has been proven in court, IONES RECORD SHOP LP'S & TAPES SNACKS 1006 15th Ave. GOOD FAST SERVICE DIXIE FINANCE CO. 402 NINTH STREET LOANS ON SIGNATURE FURNITURE . AUTO R.

Attorneys for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund cheered the Denver decision, although the ruling is not expected to have an impact on cases in cities such as Richmond, Va., where a longstanding history of de jure segregation and organized resistance to integration attempts failed to move the high court to uphold a lower court ordre to merge the city (predominately black) school district with two nearby suburban (predominately white) districts. In the 7-to-l decision, the Court voted to reverse the lower court’s findings that the Denver school system as a whole was not segregated, but did not order the lower court to return a finding that the school system is, in effect, segregated and, therefore, revise its earlier finding. Justice Byron White, a former Colorado resident, did not participate. The lone dissenter, Justice William Rehnquiest, said the Court “has taken a long leap in this area of constitutional law in equating the district-wide consequences of gerrymandering individual SUMMER UNIFORM z Prices Cut /fl n\ Again On /\\ All Sale V)Uniforms& //\ H P ants Suits I I s ee S a * e P rice I\ 1 V ag And Take // V \ Another SI.OO |T\V OFF USE YOUR FAVORITE CHARGE CARD . “ 'el mom Mr. French U shop m PHONE 738-1147 PEN MONDAY THRU SATURDAY 9 A.M.-6 P.M attendance zones in a district where separation of the races was never required by law with statutes or ordinances in other jurisdictions which did so require. “It then adds to this pot pourri,” Rehnquist added, “a confusing enunciation of evidentiary rules in order to make it more likely that the trial court will, on remand, reach the result which the court apparently wants it to reach.” Justice Lewis F. Powell Jr. concurred in sending the case back to district court, but, in a partial dissent, stressed that the courts should stop maintaining a double standard in desegregation cases in the North as opposed to those in the South and should develop and implement desegregation solutions which are not so dependent on busing.
