On Segregation
Nears Finish
Delivery Of Program
To Gov. Stanley Is
Possible Today

RICHMOND, Nov. II lR.-
The 80 members Of Virginia's
Gray Commission on Public
Education meet here today To
put the finishing touches on
what apparently win be the final
version Of a long STUDIED pro-
gram to prevent compulsory
racial integration In the States
public schools.
A commission subcommittee
took over the job yesterday Of
drafting the final report for
submission to the fun legislative
group.
There were strong indications
that II all went well. the COM
mission might finish its work
today and deliver its findings to
Gov. Stanley.
There also were unofncial
hints the report probably would
recommend an early special
session Of the General Assembly
be called to enact legislation
proposing q constitutional con-
vention.
The purpose behind this would
be to clear away q constitutional
