School
Upheld By
Court In Ban
On Negroes
Supreme Court Declares
State Boards Approval
Was Necessary To Ad-
nit; Ruling OF Marvel
Is Upset.

The Board of Education of the
Milford Special School District had
no right to admit Negro pupils to
the Milford High School last Sep
tember, the Delaware Supreme
Court ruled on Tuesday Of this
week.N
Their admittance without prior
approval by the State Board OF
Education was in complete disre-
gard of State Board regulations.
and had no legal authority, the
court ruled.
The ruling reversed an October
19 order of Vice Chancellor VIII
liam Marvel, Jr., in which he held
that IL Negro pupils had been law
fully enrolled in the school and
had a right to continue there.
The Supreme Court held that the
opinion on segregation by the Su-
preme Court Of the United States
has the effect of multiplying Del
aware's segregation laws, but did
not require immediate desegrega-
ton of the public schools.
Until the mandate of the United
States Cupreme Court is received,
the Delaware court ruled, the state
may take immediates steps toward
desegregatiOn, but is not compelled
to do so at the moment.
THE deplOrable incidents pre-
ceding the removal Of the children
from the school, and the widespread
publicity that inevitably followed,
have the effect, we think, of obscur-
ing the essential question in the
case" the court held.
