Appeals.
The next regular session Of
the appeals court begins Octo-
Der Z. 1t may be possible for
the case to be considered then

able to the three judges by
that time.

ton before him this morning
was whether the defendants

have a higher court pass on
his indignation order issued
last Saturday. He said he felt
his decree is appealahle and
that the right of appeal with
out right Of stay is q rather
empty right"
Cites Eject Of Reversal
He said that If the appeals
court reversed his decree there
would be q tremendous injury,
not only to the litigants but
to Others"
At the same time the Judge
said he still holds the same
opinions ON the issues which
he expressed Saturday in or
dering the Negroes admitted.
Judge Bryan ordered Arling-
ton school Sfncials to admit one
student to the Hodman-Bos-
ton School for Negroes even
though the pupil has not signed
. pupil placement form. His
attorney pointed out that +.
Leslie Hamm. jr., who left
Langston Elementary School
last year, was not in school
now because his parents had
not signed the form.
The four schools to which
seven Negroes sought admis-
sion are Washington-Lee High
School with 1886 pupils; Strait
ford Junior High, 1.065 pupils:
Swanson Junior High, Tao
pupils, and Patrick Henry Ele-
mentary. 500 pupils.
At today's hearing, Arlington
School Board Attorney James
H. Simmonds argued that Judge
Bryan's decision, in effect, held
that Virginia's Pupil Placement
Act Is invalid. He said he felt
that Judge organs order to
admit seven Negroes to four
white schools on Monday
should by stayed until the
Court of Appeals ruled on the
legal questions raised in the
order.

Attorney Edwin c. Brown,
Northern Virginia counsel for
the NAACP, argued that there
was no question raised in Judge
Bryan's order that could be APP
pealed. He said this matter
could go on ad infinitum."
