In a 4 to 3 decision, the Richmond
tribunal ruled that private schools
may not turn away prospective stu
dents simply because they are black.
Proprietors of Bobbe’s Private
School in Arlington and the
Fairfax-Brewster School Inc. in Fair
fax County appealed to the Supreme
Court. The suit against the two
schools was brought by the parents
of two black youngsters, Colin Gon
zales and Michael McCrary.
The case marks the first time the
justices have agreed to rule on the
legality of private school segrega
tion. Some similar cases are pending
in lower courts.
Department lawyers said they felt
compelled to intervene as a friend of
the court because the growth of all-
white private schools could retard
the integration of public schools.
“If private schools . . . may law
fully deny admisison to black chil
dren on account of race, and thus aid
in the creation of two school systems
— one private and white, the other
public and desegregated — efforts to
desegregate public educational sys
tems may be seriously impaired,”
department attorneys said.
They argued that the 1866 statute
is constitutional and applies to pri
vate schools.
The law guarantees that “all per
sons . . . shall have the same right
in every state and territory to make
and enforce contracts . . . ,” de
clared the statute cited by the Justice
Department. The statute, enacted
by a Reconstruction-era Congress,
also said all citizens must have the
same right “as is enjoyed by white
citizens.”
gham’s announcement was prema
ture and the “decision is not firm.”
Marshall Hodge, president of the
Oak Cliff NAACP branch, said he
thought The Rev. Mr. James’ objec
tion to the appeal was based on the
feeling that members of the Ken
nedy branch had not been canvassed
about the appeal.
Hodge said he thought the appar
ent rift would be quickly resolved
and the appeal would be made.
Cunningham said the organization
was concerned over the plan which
left a district in the South Oak Cliff
area all black and cut predominantly
black South Dallas into two atten
dance districts.
Meanwhile, the Dallas school
board delayed until next Wednesday
a decision on whether to appeal the
desegreation order.
After a 3V2 hour closed door hear
ing Wednesday, Hunter told news
men, “At this time there is no ac
tion.”
Judge Taylor’s desegregation rul
ing called for the busing of 17,328
students, 8,918 of whom are black. It
also ordered the assignment of top
school administrators on a strict ra
cial ratio.
Hunter spoke Thursday at a meet
ing of some 100 city leaders and
asked them to provide “aggressive
leadership” to make the desegrega
tion order work.
Supt. Nolan Estes echoed the
theme, saying the city leaders alone
have the ability to see that the court
order is implemented smoothly or
they alone “could plunge the city
into great turmoil.”

“It is particularly infuriating that a
handful of class enemies went so far
as to gather in Tien An Men Square
and . . . frenziedly direct their
spearhead at our great leader

State trends
in population
change rapidly
Dramatic changes are taking place
in Texas population trends that are
important to agriculture, particu
larly in regard to food needs, said a
Texas A&M University sociologist.
Dr. R. L. Skrabanek said Texas
has a larger group of older citizens,
those 65 years and over, due to
changing life expectancies. And
Texas has some 175,000 fewer chil
dren under five years of age than it
did 10 years ago, but the birth rate is
starting to go up again, he added.
“Foods needed for the older popu
lation group are considerations for
processors and other agri-business
segments of the state,” Skrabanek
told Centennial Agricultural Sym
posium members at A&M Wednes
day.
Skrabanek predicted no big
change in the residential distribu
tion of the state’s population. “At the
beginning of this decade, three of
every four Texans lived in a met
ropolitan area. By 1980, this trend
should increase to 78 per cent of the
state’s population, barring worsen
ing situations in regard to energy and
fuel,” he said.
Other trends are toward a
female-dominated society, particu
larly in the older population brac
kets, and some changes in ethnic
groups, Skrabanek said.
sabotage the continuing struggle
against the remnants of the
bourgeoisie advocated by Mao and
the radicals among the party leader
ship. Teng, like his mentor, the late
Premier Chou En-lai, wanted to
minimize class conflicts so that the
modernization and expansion of the
Chinese economy coidd continue
and accelerate.
Although the official version
blamed the violence in the Peking
square on a handful of troublemakers
foreign observers in the Chinese
capital reported that the crowd of
100,00 persons was angered by the
removal of memorial tributes to
Chou. These observers interpreted
the demonstration as an expression
of support for the moderate course
he and Teng advocated.
Hsinhua said more than a million
people rallied in the square Thurs
day, and “this powerful revolution

square the foul atmosphere stirred
up by counter-revolutionaries over
the past few days.

They’ve got a long way to
go. In a world that isn’t easy.
But with someone’s help,
they’ll make it. What they need
is a friend. Someone to act as
confidant and guide. Perhaps,
it could be you as a Salesian
Priest or Brother.
The Salesians of St. John
Bosco were founded in 1859 to
serve youth. Unlike other orders whose apostolate has changed
with varying conditions, the Salesians always have been — and
will be, youth oriented. Today we’re helping to prepare young
sters for the world that awaits them tomorrow. Not an easy
task but one which we welcome.
And how do we go about it? By following the precepts of
our founder, Don Bosco. To crowd out evil with reason, religion
and kindness with a method of play, learn and pray. We’re
trying to build better communities by helping to create better men.
As a Salesian, you are guaranteed the chance to help
the young in a wide range of endeavor ... as guidance counsel
ors, technical and academic teachers, as coaches,
psychologists ... in boys clubs, summer camps ... as mission
aries. And you are given the kind of training you need to
achieve your aims.
The Salesian family is a large one (we are the third largest
order) but a warm one. A community with an enthusiastic family
feeling where not only our talents are shared but our short
comings, too. If you feel as we do, that service to youth can be
an important mission in your life, we welcome your interest.
