Belgium, as the champ,
guzzled 81 gallons per per-

State in the Jan. l game.

knocked out Louisiana's law
b aiming competition be-
tween white and Negro ath-
letes.
However, a ruling by the
LSU board of supervisors
bans the team from playing
integrated teams not only in
Louisiana but also outside
the state.
The Federal Court ruling
did not touch on phase of
the law which bans segre-
gated seating at sports

The Sugar Bowl does not

before a ticket is bought; a
few years ago it removed a
stipulation printed on most
of its tickets that they could
be used "only by the Cauca-

The segregation ruling
came in a case filed by Ne
gro boxer Joe Dorsey who
commended the law was jeop-
ardizing his career. The
three judges also issued an
injunction preventing fur
fher enforcement of the law.
State Sen. William Rain
ach, Louisiana's top segrega-

segregation to continue in
