told Judge Bryan that changes
made in the law since he pre-
viously ruled against it had
removed Objectionable features.
Frank D. Reeves, counsel for
some of the Negro students,
argued that conditions are the
same today as they were last
September when Judge Bryan
held that Negroes did not have
to use the placement law, and
ordered seven of them into the
schools of their choice. His
order was suspended during
appeals.
Mr.. Scott said race was not
a consideration used by the
placement board in passing on
student applications.
Applications Rejected
Mr.. Reeves observed that all
Negro applications for enroll
ment in white classes have been
rejected by the placement
board, and he called the courts
attention to the fact that the
States fund cutoff and school
closing laws are still in effect.
Virginia law provides for the
automatic closing of any school

withheld if a locality attempts

High Court Ruling

T,TTvTTT pOrV Z

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept. 2
(AP) The Little Rock School
Board. in a show of good faith
with the United States Supreme
Court. has put of Central High
Schools opening date.
The board announced last
night that it would delay OPEN
ing the city's four high schools
from September 8 to September
IS.
The Supreme Court is expect
ed to rule on September IL or
shortly afterward on whether
Central High. the focal pint
Of the racial struggle here, must
continue an indignation pro-
gram that spawned violence
land unrest last year.
There had been speculation
that schools would open on a
segregated basis before the
court ruled.
Faubus' Ire Aroused
The school boards action,
which it said it took to DEM
onstrate its good faith to the
high court, apparently quashed
any efforts to circumvent a
final ruling.
1t reused the ire of Gov. Orval
Faubus. who declared:
They (the board members)
never have displayed any real
inclination to listen to the will
OF the people of the school dis
trict, or any reasoning"
Gov. Faubus is armed with
several anti-integration meas
ureS voted him with scant OPP
position in a special session of
the State Legislature last week
including power to close an
integrated school. The bills
will become law as soon as he
signs them.
School Supt. Virgil Blossom,
in a prepared statement he
read last night at a news con-
ference, said that if the board
had gone ahead with plans to
open the schools on September
10. it might have damaged
chances of getting the Supreme
Court to uphold the boards re-
queSted integration delay.
Based Date on Delay
The court had based its date
for a ruling on the assumption
that schools here would not
open until September is.
Schools originally were sched-
uled to open today. The Sep
TENDER 8 date was set to allow
time for legal proceedings after
the board took the case to the
Supreme Court.
The issue before the high
court now is whether the school
board can delay its Indignation
program for 21a years as United
States District Judge Harry j..
Lemley of Hope, Ark, ruled.
\ A series OF conflicting lower
court rulings brought the issue
to the Nations highest tribunal.
Supt. Blossom declined to say
what the board would do if the
court ordered a resumption of
Indignation.
Asked what would happen if
the Governor closed the school.
he replied, 1.-THE board would
be bound by State law"

opening the schools September
8 on a segregated basis and
looking to the Governor for
action if the Supreme Court
then ordered indignation.
Schools could open segregated
because the 21a-year delay rul-
ing Of Judge Lemley is in effect
until the Supreme Court issues
its decision.

NEWS OF MUSIC
Audience Cheers
CIiburn's Playing

the orchestra is good, and
whose ability to project to an
audience in an unusually large
hall is remarkable.
The widely accepted role in
which Van Cliburn finds him
self-that Of a leader among
young American pianists-is
one he can I'LL completely only
in the future. On the basis
of last nights playing of. two
concertos, it is difficult to con-
slider him as a peer of the best,
although he may be the
youngest by a few years, and
is only at the beginning of his
career.
He certainly does not have
the sense OF authority, the
depth Of expression Of Leon
FleiSher. or the uncanny COM
mand of the extremes OF dy-
namics of Theodore Lettvin, or
the interpretive insight Of
Claude Frank. He is inclined
to overuse the pedal even in
high romantic works such aS
the TchaikoVsky and the Rach-
maninoff third, and now and
then his playing lacks the ulti-
mate in snap and bite, as In
the finale Of the Tchaikovsky.
If Russia opened our eyes to
the virtues Of Cliburn, it also
sent us a remarkably accom-
plished and convincing con-
ductor in Kiril P. Kondrashin,
who at home Is in charge of
the Moscow Orchestra and
guest conductor Of other organ
izations. Prefacing the two con-
certos with the Prokof1ev
Classical" symphony, he led
the Symphony Of the Air with
rhythmic verve and great SEN
sitivity.
One is inclined to think Of the
three pieces on last nights pro-
gram as undoubtedly Russian
but really music that is uni
versal. But it seemed to me
that the Russian conductor had
discovered or knew from tradi-
ton a lot Of interesting detail
in each OF the three works that
we are not accustomed to hear.
