Arlington. Alabama. youth under
sentence TO be electrocuted on
June 10. the NAACP announced
today that its legal department

lowed the denial, on MAY 10. by
Federal District Judge Kenne-
man. sitting in Montgomery. Ala,
Of petition for writ of habeas
corpus to release Arlington. The
petition charged that Arlington,
accused of assaulting a white
woman, had not received fair
