College Entry

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 26 R,.
The United States Fifth Cir
cult Court of Appeals has re-
versed a lower court decision and
ordered qualified Negroes adj
.mitted to Texarkana Junior Col
lege at Texarkana, Tex.
The appeals court ordered the
United States Eastern District
Court Of Texas to declare that
Wilma Dean Whitmore's and
other Negroes right to admission
in the college must be judged on
the same basis as II they were
members of the white race.
The appeals court ruled. in an
opinion dated November %, that
the refusal Of the junior college
to admit Negroes on account Of
their race or color is unlawful.
The defendant in the case was
II. w. Stilwell, president Of the
college. and others.
Litigation arose after the Tex
arkana College denied admission
to Negroes in a letter dated June
0, 1852.
The suit originally was filed
In 1852 by nine Negro graduates
Of Dunbar High School Of Tex
arkana, charging they were ex-
cluded from the junior college
solely because of race.
The suit was dismissed earlier
this year by United States Dis
trict Judge Joe Sheehy on
grounds the students failed TO
prove that they graduated from
an accredited high school and
could meet the colleges scholas-
tic requirements.
