Upho|ds Decision OF
3Jud qe Federal Court

WA~SHINGTON-In keeping with previous rulings
affecting the country's educational setup, the United
States Supreme Court Wednesday ordered Louisiana State
University to admit qualified Negro students to what has
heretofore been considered an all-white law school at
Baton Rouge.
The tribunal upheld a previous ruling of a special
three-judge federal court in New Orleans. The three jur-
lists had ruled that a law school established by the state
at Scotlandsville, La, in 1947, does not offer a law edu-
equal to that of the Baton Rouge institution.
The case against Louisiana State University was
brought by Roy S. Wilson, who was denied admission to
the state-supported law school.
In making known it's decision, the high court did
not issue a formal opinion, but merely cited its decisions
last year compelling Texas and Oklahoma state UNIVERSE
ties to admit Negroes on equal terms with white students.
