It agreed also to hear the ap peals of 17 Negro students con victed in connection with sit-in demonstrations at lunch counters in Baton Rouge, La. Arguments will not be heard until next fall. These will be the first appeals to be heard by the high court growing out of a wave of demon strations and arrests during lunch counter sit-ins in the South. The court’s present actions in Louisiana school cases actually were foretold Dec. 12. At that time the court said, in effect, that all Louisiana devices designed to fore stall integration in public schools were legally worthless. The court made the December comment in refusing to delay ef fectiveness of a ruling by a special three-judge federal court in New Orleans striking down a spate of anti-integration laws passed by the Louisiana Legislature. In unanimously affirming this and another decision the Supreme Court Monday merely listed the cases by number and said the lower court was affirmed. One ruling by the three-judge court was given last Nov. 30. It threw out a package of integra tion laws. The other one, handed down last Aug. 29, ordered control of the schools taken out of the hands of Gov. Jimmie H. Davis and given back to the New Orleans Parish School Board. It also directed the board to comply with an order last May 16 by U. S. Dist. Judge J. Skelly Wright to integrate the first grade last fall. That ruling also struck down a dozen Louisiana laws as unconstitutional on their face. In addition to upholding the two orders of the three-judge court, the Supreme Court turned down a 40 Students List GPR’s Of Over 3.0 James P. Hannigan, Dean of Students, today offered his con gratulations to those students post ing a 3.0 or better GPR for the first semester. “I would like to congratulate these students on the extremely fine record they are making here at the A&M College of Texas. Grades of this type are never made by the student who wastes his time, who leaves the campus at every opportunity or who spends his time indulging in foolish pranks. “All of us are delighted to have students of this caliber at the col lege and find it most gratifying to assist really good students to obtain the goals which they have set for themselves. “To post a 3.0 at Texas A&M is indeed an accomplishment to be ELECTION (Continued From Page 1) Council member and two yell leaders.

In still another action Monday involving race, the. court agreed to review a decision by the Vir ginia Supreme Court that the National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People un lawfully solicited legal business for its attorneys in Virginia. The law was passed at an extra session of the Virginia General Assembly in 1956 at a time Vir ginia was committed to “massive resistance” to public school inte gration. Only two weeks ago, the Su preme Court refused to hear a sit- in case appeal filed by eight Negroes and four white persons arrested during sit-in demonstra tion in Tallahassee, Fla. The court gave no explanation but some observers speculated it may have been because the 12 had not carried their case to Florida’s highest courts before appealing to the Supreme Court.
